  • Zachary Levi pleas to Musk: People who voted for Trump are losing their jobs

    Jump

  • “I’m so grateful that the election went the way that it did, and specifically because people like [Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.] and [director of national intelligence Tulsi Gabbard] are now in there, and confirmed, and can do the work,”

    You're grateful for an anti-vax brain-worm in charge of Health and a Russian asset in charge of Intelligence? Are you a Russian asset?!

  • "We're all gonna have to go through some pain to get to where we need to be." Or something close to that, I don't remember the exact quote.

  • Yeah, he started talking right-wing a few years ago.

  • Incoming federal mandated work requirements for medicaid will remove access to medical care for millions of Americans.

    Jump

  • Republicans said the requirement could motivate people to find employment — maybe even a job that comes with health insurance. [...] [They] buy their sandwiches from the food truck with their food stamps

    Republicans are extremely deluded about real life.

    Bill to ban mRNA vaccines passes out of House committee

    Jump

  • If this goes through (I hope it doesn't, but don't know enough about Montana to say), folks should be aware that there's a third FDA-approved covid vaccine that doesn't use the mRNA technology. It's a more traditional protein subunit vaccine and it's called NovaVax. It's slightly less effective than the mRNA vaccines, but there's data showing that the resistance lasts a bit longer.

  • Trump administration tries to bring back fired nuclear weapons workers in DOGE reversal

  • "Move fast, break things." Except when it's the government, you really don't want to break things.

  • US ‘border czar’ unhappy with pace of migrant arrests.

    Jump

  • Many of those arrested have been flown back to their native lands or sent to the prison on the U.S. naval base at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba, while some have been released to live in the United States pending court proceedings.

    Where are all the reich-wingers screaming about catch-and-release?

  • Funny how the libertarians never mentioned this before the election ....

  • When the pain hits home, Republicans balk at Trump's spending cuts and tariffs

    Jump

  • "They're hurting the wrong people!"

  • Mitch McConnell: Kentuckians can't afford the high cost of Trump's tariffs

  • Sucks to be them, then.

  • "There were a lot of people who were like, 'We've got to stop the groups from doing this.' ... People are concerned that they're saying we're not doing enough, but we're not in the majority," said one member. [...] Some Democrats see the callers as barking up the wrong tree given their limited power as the minority party in Congress.

    So? Republicans have been in the minority and they're still successful in blocking the Democrats' agenda. I don't see why the Democrats are so reluctant to turn the tables when it's literally our entire fucking country on the line. They should refuse everything the Republicans try to do.

    This is not meant as sarcasm or to be derogatory, I am genuinely curious as to what the hope is for the ideal outcome of the protests being held against the current administration?

    Jump

  • It's not just the morale of the protestors, it's the morale and courage of everyone. Lawmakers, judges, career civil servants, scientists, educators - they're being attacked by the government and they feel helpless and alone. When you feel like there's no one out there on your side, it's easy to go along, to give up. To stop fighting back, to keep evil in check even if you can only do a small bit here and there.

    By going out and being visible, we're telling judges and lawyers and lawmakers to keep fighting, to push back against fascism. By giving people in power courage to continue to stand up and fight back, we're preserving some amount of political power for ourselves, slowing down the fascist speed-run, giving time, energy and momentum both to people who want to resist and those who need to hide. We're making it less easy and less convenient for the administration, and making it more obvious that they're lying when they claim to have a mandate.

    I'd love to live a quiet life, but if the price of that is giving up on equality and freedom, letting people I love and respect be trampled - how could I respect myself? Where is my honor and integrity? I don't know where or how this ends, but if I come out the other side, I'd prefer to be able to live with myself.

  • TIL that not only is Measles very dangerous in itself but it also strips away and resets much/most of your immune system.

    Jump

  • So, question: the vaccine is 97% effective against measles, meaning there's still a 3% chance i might get it under various circumstances . Assuming I've been vaccinated and still got measles despite having a normal, functioning immune system: I recognize I'd likely have a milder case of measles, but would it still wipe out my immune system's memory?

    I know it's not actually 3% and there's a host of factors, but none of that's really relevant to the question, so please ignore it.
