Hallmark of Trump’s 2nd term: undoing his few good moves from the 1st. First undermining the success of Operation Warp Speed, now he’s targeting GEFTA—the law guaranteeing back pay for furloughed workers. Pure shutdown panic politics. Unions will fight it, but the stress is the point.
does bluesky know about this horror yet? if I have to see it, you have to see it
I still always forget this place exists
A 1940 newspaper clip from the Springfield Leader and Press, declaring: Superman Poisoning American Children, Irate Nazis cClaim."
"Superman Arouses Teutonic Anger" reads the headline in the Amarillo Daily News"
The right-wing backlash against #Superman this week got me thinking: Has this happened before?
That led to the discovery of these headline — from April 1940, when the official newspaper of the SS took umbrage at the comic book hero and ridiculed its creators.
My how times change ...
Once again, this is a massive public jobs program for fascists.
This bill was never just about tax cuts and gutting social services. It's about investing our collective resources in violence and using state power to spread fear and destroy solidarity. We need to resist this with all we've got.
Leah Greenberg on Twitter (reacting to an image of Lisa Murkowski after she voted for Trump’s Tax Scam): “The face of someone who knows she just sold out the country”
Republicans must be held accountable for every single person turned away from life-saving healthcare, every hungry child, and every struggling family. We will not let them hide away from this disastrous scam.
Parody poster titled “Govlov Is Blind,” mimicking the style of a dating reality show poster (like Love Is Blind). It features two silhouetted male figures standing side by side with their faces turned towards each other. They are wearing suits and a visible ID badge. The person on the left has a badge labeled "CDC" (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), and stands against a background of soft red and purple vertical stripes. The person on the right has a badge labeled "FDA" (Food and Drug Administration), with a beige background that includes a faint silhouette of the U.S. Capitol building. Both characters are shown in profile, facing each other, suggesting a connection or relationship. Both look pretty fit. The title “Govlov Is Blind” is written in bold yellow text at the top, playing on the idea of "love is blind," but in the context of government agencies.
Long week!
Sometimes we dream of retiring—perhaps to ✍️ erotic federal agency fan fiction 🤔
But until democracy is restored (or at least dewormed), we’re here to stay
Sleep well, and we’ll see you Monday
And drop your ideas for our #FedFanFic—we probably won’t steal them

The physician, Dr. Ben Edwards, is well known in the area for producing podcasts that often discuss the dangers of vaccines, and for his wellness clinic in Lubbock, which rejects central tenets of medicine, like the idea that germs cause certain diseases. In an interview with Fox News, Mr. Kennedy said he had spoken with Dr. Edwards (whom he mistakenly called Dr. Ed Benjamin) and learned "what is working on the ground."
In the following days, hundreds of people from the Mennonite community lined up at Dr. Edwards's makeshift clinic, held behind a local health food store, said Tina Siemens, who helped organize the event. Mrs. Siemens said people seeking treatment for active measles infections and those who hoped to prevent one were in attendance. To get enough supplements for the clinic, Dr. Edwards had enlisted one of his patients, a pilot, to fly to Scottsdale, Ariz., and pick up nearly a thousand bottles of vitamin C supplements and cod liver oil, both as a lemon-flavored drink and unflavored soft gels, said an owner of the supplement company, Patrick Sullivan. "How much do you have in stock, and how quickly could you get it to me?" Mr. Sullivan recalled Dr. Edwards asking. The treatments were free, Mrs. Siemens said. Members of Children's Health Defense, an anti-vaccine nonprofit that Mr. Kennedy helped found before becoming health secretary, created a donation page online that has raised more than $16,000 to help cover the cost of "essential vitamins, supplements and medicines."
Oh my god, RKF Jr.’s nonprofit is directly funding this measles outbreak! Literally paying for free quack prophylaxis to lure people without measles to stand in line next to people with actively and highly contagious infections www.nytimes.com/2025/03/15/h... (🎁 🔗)

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.
Hundreds of protesters gathered in Waitsfield on Saturday morning to protest Vice President JD Vance, who is visiting Vermont with his family for a ski trip this weekend.
