It’s why I use cast iron pans only. They’ve been in the family for generations.

Another word you might use for it is "looting".

"This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..."

‘They pushed so many lies about recycling’: the fight to stop big oil pumping billions more into plastics Plastic production has doubled over the last 20 years – and will likely double again. For author Beth Gardiner, metal water bottles and canvas tote bags are not the solution. So what is?

Trying to use less plastic?

Big Oil and the plastics industry are spending billions to make sure everyone else uses more.

“I think what stood out most is the deliberateness and intentionality over the years of pushing plastic into our lives,” said @bethgardiner.bsky.social. “It was such a shock."

Who would have guessed that the legal system in America was so fragile that a single crazy president could ignore the whole thing, from the Constitution right down to state laws?
Why does the Supreme Court and Congress let this demented moron act like the dictator of a banana republic?

Administration: It's unfair to criticize members of ICE because there are good people working for them.

Me: The fact that they're willingly working for ICE is prima facie evidence that their status as "good people" is questionable.

Proud to march with @uaw.org Local 600.

I will always stand with unions over billionaires. With solidarity over division. With people over profit.

American tax dollars should not be spent to drop bombs on other people's kids. They should be used to provide healthcare and education here at home. It's not hard.

This is the guy who likes to downplay non-fatal injuries suffered by US service members in combat.

They hate me because I fight. They attack me because I win.

I will do everything I can to protect free and fair elections. I will never back down.

Consider sending out postcards to inform people about purges in their state, including registration information, and encourage them to check their status on Vote.gov. Additionally, provide updates on any new laws, rules, or ID requirements. #Voting #Registration
Let's get everyone registered to vote

No, you sycophantic chode. He’s not stopping the threat, he’s encouraging an attack.

Has anyone pointed out to ICE agents that if they're arresting people solely to collect a bonus, they're not law enforcement officers. They're bounty hunters.

I look forward to all of them losing their jobs and being blacklisted from serving in law enforcement.

Raskin: Based on what you know today, were Renee Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists?

Noem: What happened was an absolute tragedy.

Raskin: Were they domestic terrorists?

Noem: My condolences to their families

Raskin: You lied about them.

$185 BILLION.
More than the FBI.
More than the Marines.
That's a choice. And it's time we made a better one.

Young, healthy folks get priced out → premiums rise → more people drop off → prices rise again. That's the insurance death spiral. And that's what happens when healthcare is built for profit instead of people.

(Teenagers shouldn't have to ask how we protect kids from ICE.)

Chris Murphy: "It's just so disgusting to listen to the president be waxing poetically about the drapes he's buying while there are six Americans who are dead. There are six families who are about to bury their children because of a war of choice that no one in this country wanted, an illegal war."
