The guy who did such an incredible job with the Reflecting Pool, Ballroom, Kennedy Center, National Mall, and Great American Fair is going to redesign our warships. What could go wrong?

I appreciate access to good signs people make. In back left you see 1 of 4 HPD units watching 4 people on Dunlavy Bridge who don’t want to live in authoritarian nation, rather than red light runners & ICE Gestapo in Houston. This today, 8/14. HPD has unlimited $ to police rank & file Dems. #Houston
Ken Paxton stole someone’s $1,000 pen. He’ll steal your tax dollars. He’ll steal your healthcare. He’ll even steal your pen. I'll be a Senator who puts money in your pocket — and I’ll never put your pen in mine.
The doctor who claimed that vaccines cause autism lost his medical license for faking for the study. But his lies and the damage he did to public health persist long after his paper was pulled. This is why science communication is so difficult; all it takes is one grifter.

They're exactly who we thought they were. To those considering voting with these goons to "send a message to Ottawa" -- consider the message you're sending about your own values.
The Breakdown AB@thebreakdownab.bsky.social · 3d agoRemember when the separatists got all upset that it was implied they were racist? Tonight at Mitch Sylvestre's new constitution release they were clear who rights belonged to... "Not some flip flop towel headed police officer who doesn't even speak Canadian". #abpoli
BC clearly wants to reclaim its "craziest political climate in Canada" crown from Alberta.
Unless you are at least a multimillionaire, the Republican Party has done nothing in the last 40 years that was designed to benefit you… Absolutely nothing. So… Quit fucking voting for them! Any Questions ?! 😎✨
