I can't believe how often I have to fact check because real life is more outrageous than satire these days. Tell me you know nothing about foreign affairs without telling me....
Holy Shit. I can not explain how... wtf this is. Never thought I'd be on the same side as Autism Speaks
Eric Michael Garcia@ericmgarcia.bsky.social · last yr.Wait, Autism Speaks, ASAN and the Autistic Women and Nonbinary Network all pushed back on RFK Jr.'s comment? People do not realize how much RFK Jr. stepped in it for this to happen.
This is the budget resolution that Republicans have voted for. Another reminder that we have socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for the rest.
The 500 richest people in the world added $304B to their combined net worth yesterday after Trump's tariff pause. Meanwhile, retirees, small businesses, and workers are still reeling from the mess. Trump's actions feel chaotic until you see who really comes out on top.
Ffs America. What are you allowing? Do you think polite daytime marching (while you still legally can) is going to fix this once they have cronies in all military and government positions?

The US can go f*** themselves, dragging the ND community through this bullshit again, while literally spouting debunked propaganda which leads to increased child mortality. And human ignorance.

Mike Meyers goes on SNL and manages to help unite people with a t-shirt, his elbow and a couple of silently mouthed words. Dems in the US can't find a single person to inspire unity because they are so busy censuring those who use their voice too loudly. Pathetic. #ElbowsUp #CanadaStrong
Dear Americans I've seen people from blue states/blue voters express upset that Canada's response might hurt them too and how unfair it is since they didn't vote for him. Neither did Canada. Who we voted for isn't protecting any of us from the orange menace. I hope you all find a way ❤️
Dear American Friends... Please stop saying, "This is not what America is." Try saying "We will fight to undo this version of what America is." One is denial. The other is action. Choose action.
No kidding. This shouldn't be breaking news. This should be the truth everyone is saying

We’ve tried to shelter our minds but tonight we’re preparing for the genocide of Science. Entire NIH departments will have no leaders. World renowned Scientists kicked to the curb without cause, & grants will loose their lead investigators. Is this what they want? Chaos? Destruction?
NIH ban on renewing senior scientists adds to assaults on its in-house research
Policy follows firings of tenure-track scientists and suspension of training programs

🇨🇦 America's downfall has been the blind love of country indoctrinated into its citizens. When one does not truly see flaws, they can be exploited. I love Canada with the humility of knowing its flaws, desire to address them with accountability, and willingness to stand for its sovereignty. 🇨🇦
