Just a reminder: This Oklahoma Plumber (pictured here hiding from Jan 6 terrorists) is the Secretary of Homeland Security.

For the majority of Americans, it's becoming increasingly clear what the Trump-Republican Party represents.

@RossKneeDeep Notice certain posts don’t offer “not interested in this post.” Propaganda accounts can’t be turned off unless blocked.

@burrowingbolt Sorry Granny Meg had a fall. Hope she feels better soon. Happy Birthday Granny Meg.

BREAKING: An ICE contractor in Aurora, Colorado, allegedly shot a protester who was walking away, then tried to flee with the gun still inside his vehicle.

Brandon Booth, 42, has been booked on suspicion of murder.

A man is dead, a contractor is in custody, and ICE still has serious questions to answer.

The CDC had a lab and a team that studies the parasite Cyclospora and responds to outbreaks

DOGE shut it down

Now there's a massive outbreak of explosive diarrhoea caused by cyclospora across the United States

I offer my sincerest condolences to Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson on the passing of her father, Johnny Brown.

May he rest in power and peace.

@Idontgive2u My heart has been broken into so many pieces from betrayals. I felt it would disappear if broken one more time. So I’m alone & in charge of the tv remote.

@Michelle71966 Just call the pharmacy to get info on prescriptions. The automated menu will make you tear your hair out. It keeps asking you to repeat your birthday & finally you push the numbers because it can’t handle your voice. My Dad, now passed would get disgusted by this.

John Fetterman has threatened to leave the Democratic Party????? Senator, you lied to the party, you grifted your state, and grifted us, those who believed in and supported you. 👋 You were NEVER really with us.

Unearthed records just revealed that Ken Paxton owns 15 homes on a government salary.

This includes luxury real estate in Hawaii, Utah, and Florida.

[Atlantic White Shark Conservancy @A_WhiteShark]

Yesterday, the research team alongside Dr. Greg Skomal of the Massachusetts DMF deployed the realtime acoustic receiver array along the outer cape. Please note that these only detect tagged white sharks when they are in range of the receiver (about 150 meters).

[Hoodlum 🇺🇸 @NotHoodlum]

Don’t let her con you. Susan Collins is the Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee. She’s in charge of ICE funding. Collins voted for an ADDITIONAL $70 billion while they already received $170 billion and still had $95 billion in unobligated funds. Vote her out.

Donald Trump is a loser.

The CDC says it has traced cases in the cyclospora outbreak to a Taylor Farms supplier in Mexico, though there may be other, unrelated sources.

They're advising caution on eating shredded lettuce from some of the places supplied by Taylor Farms, including Taco Bell, McDonald's, Wendy's, Subway, and Chipotle.

Taylor Farms is the world's largest salad and fresh-cut vegetable processor.

In 2009, their CEO testified against food safety testing measures.

They've had *major* recalls since then:
2011: Salmonella & Listeria
2012: Salmonella & Listeria
2013: Cyclospora
2014: Salmonella
2015: E. Coli
2017: Listeria
2018: Salmonella & Listeria
2019: E. Coli
2020 Salmonella
2021: Biden admin implements new food safety measures
2024: E. Coli
2025: Trump admin removes food safety measures
2026: Cyclospora

@Udntnonutn East Coast 2026 blizzard. 5 feet of snow in my driveway which is my only other exit besides my front door which was also blocked for nearly 3 days. But, hey keep our federal paid in tax dollars from us. If our roads were plowed in a timely way, plows could have gotten to us.

@OJoelsen I’m sure Canadians are more concerned with the quality of life they provide their own citizens. Not interested in the ranting of an imbecile.

[Mimi @ecoherbgal]

@recovery_your They also don’t understand that CPTSD brings your mind & body back in time to the trauma. It is as real as if it is happening now. The damage done to me over decades by a parent isn’t fixable. I just have to live within my limits.
