💔 ICE fatally shoots and kills 52-year-old Lorenzo Salgado while conducting a traffic stop in Houston.
According to CNN, Salgado had no criminal record and was on his way to work when unmarked ICE vehicles began chasing him. Fearing for his safety, he tried to drive away before an officer shot and killed him.
I’m tired of people acting like someone’s life matters less because they weren’t an American on paper. He spent 35 years here, raised three American children, and built his life in Houston. He was an American in every way that mattered.
The Trump admin has appointed Matthew M. Wielicki to oversee the National Climate Assessment.
Wielicki is a climate change denier with zero training as a climate scientist.
Cyclosporiasis, the parasite causing the current explosive diarrhea outbreak, is at a level 20x higher than its yearly average.
This comes just 1 year after the Trump admin removed a cyclospora tracking mandate from the 'Foodborne Disease Active Surveillance Network.'
Three Florida Republicans were just charged with creating a fake voter guide to steal an election.
They did not hack the machines. They did not stuff the ballot box. They printed a fake Republican voter guide, made it look nearly identical to the real one, and mailed it to tens of thousands of voters before a 2024 primary.
It worked. An incumbent won by fewer than 1,000 votes. Now three elected officials in St. Johns County, Florida are facing criminal charges for it.
i need it to be a bigger deal that the president was found liable of sexual abuse in a court of law (to say nothing of the evidence of him in the files we’re supposed to forget about)
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
George Orwell, 1984
Now, 52% of young adults live with their parents—the highest rate ever, surpassing even the Great Depression.
The most educated and most indebted generation in history did everything they were supposed to do and got this.
The system. Does. Not. Work.

Rose garden, colonnade, oval office, East wing, reflecting pool… and now the cherry blossoms? This guy is single-handedly destroying Washington history and the Republicans just keep allowing it. Aren’t they supposed to be conservative??
Conserve something.
Vibrio vulnificus, a flesh-eating bacteria with a 20% mortality rate, has been spotted in multiple U.S. waterways.
This comes after the Trump administration disrupted water monitoring systems and slashed CDC programs that studied the bacteria.
This is straight out of Mein Kampf btw. Its paraphrased and adapted to the modern world of course, but the idea that the Aryan race invented culture/technology and so a Pole or a Slav could never be truly German is the core foundational idea that gave birth to Nazism
