The cyclospora outbreak has reached 13,895 cases across 47 states. The FDA has recalled 1.6 million eggs due to salmonella contamination. Screwworm cases continue to rise. And we’ve just surpassed 2,500 measles cases — breaking 2025’s record. “Make America Healthy Again.”
“If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.” - Archbishop Desmond Tutu One side wants fascism. The other side wants healthcare as a human right. To even attempt to conflate the two is absurd.
Brooke Taylor, a Fox News “National Correspondent,” was oh so proud of her scoop a few days ago. Appears to have been all bullshit. She hasn’t updated her feed.
Aaron Reichlin-Melnick@reichlinmelnick.bsky.social · 3w agoAfter ICE shot and killed Lorenzo Araujo, the FBI leaked to Fox News a claim that he was found with possible meth in the van. His family said it was a total falsehood; it was a bag of salt to be used to make an electrolyte drink. And they were right. It was not drugs.
All of this tacky-ass third-rate Golden Corral looking shit will be gone before sundown the day a Democrat is inaugurated.

"The Americans can't get the slime out of their capital's monument pool and will arrest you for touching it," sounds like the sort of lie they'd tell us in the Soviet Union so we'd stop bitching about bread lines.
This whole hoo-ha on the front lawn is because when he goes to public sporting events he gets booed out of the stadium. So true to form, he creates, at taxpayer expense mind you, an “alternative sports event” where everyone is cheering him so he can brag that the country loves him.

ICE detained people at my kid's school today, shaking him so much that he begged me to bring him home, but to bring his passport so he could prove he's an American. They are coming for us all. And now my kid knows. I hate this. www.thebanner.com/opinion/colu...

When a federal agency tasked with protecting all Americans decides to mandate a specific religious worldview, it ceases to protect democracy and begins to threaten it.
Straight-up admitting it’s all for show. Unbelievable stuff.
Harriet Clark’s début novel traces Clark’s experience as the daughter of an activist that was imprisoned while she was 11 months old. With her novelistic prowess, the story “shifts away from singular autobiography toward singular emblem,” James Wood writes. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/nCzUSo

This is a soon to be shuttered boondoggle that squandered hundreds of millions of dollars and simultaneously engaged in human rights violations. In a functioning political system, it would be a massive scandal.
Micah Loewinger@micahloewinger.bsky.social · 3mo agoDeSantis says he doesn't care when or if FEMA reimburses Florida for Alligator Alcatraz, which... is reportedly closing soon due to high costs. Construction for the facility came out of a state disaster relief fund. This project was a disgrace and Floridians should be pissed
How fun for everybody. At least the oil companies, credit card companies, and the banks behind them are happy. Guess the rest of us can go fuck ourselves?
Look, I fucking get it: gas prices are fucked up. But good God, that’s not among in the top 20 ways he’s fucking up the country.
The Met Gala is the new Bradley-Martin Ball of 1897. In the midst of Gilded Age, workers faced poverty & unemployment. New York elites held a lavish costume party, spending $400,000 (=9 million) to dress as kings and queens. I hope Mamdani also raises taxes as happened in the wake of that ball.
From gardening in food deserts to nurturing sick New Yorkers, this year’s Mayoral Service Recognition Ceremony honorees are truly inspiring. To Eric Ragone, Brittany Leavitt, Angria Messam, Abby MacLean-Pochiraju, Iman Mergen, Mutashma Shaaf, Aalia Rehman, Nafisa Qadri, & Huda Ali: Thank you.

Do we really have a constitutional republic, with elected representatives making decisions on tax and spend issues, when an imperial president can just take our money and buy an airline? We don’t have a govt functioning with the consent of the governed - we have one man run amok.

Anyone who shows up for this travesty is knowingly choosing to act as a prop for authoritarian kabuki because they’re too cowardly or amoral to pass up vapid schmoozing and free drinks. They deserve your contempt, and possibly a few pieces of rotting produce.

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick@reichlinmelnick.bsky.social · 4mo agoHUGE scandal if true. Laura Loomer got Marco Rubio to throw two Iranian women with green cards in ICE jail to be stripped of status and deported, claiming they were related to Qasem Soleimani. Official documents provided to @dropsitenews.com appear to show they are NOT related; they're innocent.
Trump is reported close to a "deal" with himself under which US taxpayers would pay him $10 billion. I served in multiple communist and authoritarian dictatorships, but I never witnessed corruption on this scale or this blatant.
