"Do not let any calamity-howling executive with an income of $1,000 a day, who has been turning his employees over to the Government relief rolls in order to preserve his company's undistributed reserves, tell you -- using his stockholder's money to pay the postage for his personal opinions -- tell you that a wage of $11.00 a week is going to have a disastrous effect on all American industry." -- Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1938, Fireside Chat, the night before signing the Fair Labor Standards Ac which instituted the federal minimum wage)

"What Democrats seem incapable of grasping is that by eulogizing people like Lindsey Graham, by referring to him as their "friend," and by assuring us that while they disagreed on policy, they got along socially, they're reminding us that the things that are life and death to us -- civil rights, healthcare, abortion access, FDA regulations, the economy -- don't actually affect them, and that their "fighting for us" is political theater.

They are misreading the moment in spectacular fashion."

Ain't your world, Christina. Wyeth go to THAT fair?

Parody of Andrew Wyeth's "Christina's World" painting, with Christina in the foreground and Trump's 250 State Fair sparsely-attended fiasco in the background.

I don't need a colony on Mars.

I don't need servers orbiting the planet.

I don't need AI woven into every corner of my life.

I need drinkable water.

I need a climate my kids can count on.

I need pollinators still humming in the spring.

That's the only future I'm interested in.

Preznit Chop Suey Brain has thoughts

CanadaHatesTrump @ AntiTrumpCanada posts: "Ho Lee Shit! Trump flew all the way to China to inform Chinese people that Chinese restaurants exist in America. Sweet & Sour Jesus, this fucking wonton is one egg roll short of a combo platter." The post displays two pictures, Trump speaking at a dais on the left, and Marco Rubio among Chinese officials, seated, listening, on the right.

"When the Hortmans were murdered in their homes, MAGA (including Republicans in Congress) made jokes.

When Paul Pelosi was hospitalized by a would-be assassin, MAGA (including Trump's family) made jokes.

When Robert Mueller died, Trump proudly said "I'm glad he's dead" on social media.

When it's one of them targeted, MAGA is all crocodile tears shrieking about civility and respect.

Nah. Fuck that."

I think one of Trump's lickspittles called him a "baller" once, so now he thinks he needs a ballroom.

Two pictures of Ukrainian President Zelensky in combat gear, presumably on the front lines. The caption reads, "How does this man manage to survive in a literal war zone without a ballroom to keep him safe?"

On Facebook, Danielle Mazur posts a correction from the Financial Times: Researcher Brene Brown was misquoted in an interview published on April 6. She described herself as "solidly in my fuck-it era" rather than "solidly in my fucking era"

"Give photographer Megan Varner a Pulitzer for this shot of one of the ICE agents sent to "help" with the security bottle necks at airports fucking around on his phone while travelers outside wait on a Line From Hell."

Maybe read your bill?

The accepted forms of ID to vote under the SAVE Act:

1. Enhanced REAL ID: Only available in 5 states. Costs up to $50 (poll tax) and requires a birth certificate which 40 M Americans lack access to.

2. Valid passport: 146M Americans do not have and costs at least $130 (poll tax). Trump gutted agencies issuing them.

3. U.S. military ID card presented with military record of service.

4. Government-issued photo ID showing place of birth: 300M Americans do not have one, and costs up to $50 (poll tax).

5. Non-Enhanced REAL ID driver's license, state ID, or tribal ID show in conjunction with a birth certificate (40M lack access to) that matches your last name (which 69M women do not have due to marriage) and other forms of documentation, and which require a cost to obtain (poll tax).

If this was truly a voter ID bill, it would provide every eligible voter in the U.S. a voter ID, and provide them at no cost to align with the 24th Amendment -- so why doesn't your bill do that if voter ID is so popular?

That coinage proposal should get it in the neck. The Charlie Kirk Memorial Fountain:

"The Charlie Kirk Memorial Fountain" is a sculpture of a seated Charlie Kirk, holding a microphone, and with water gushing into the surrounding fountain from his (fatal) neck wound.

Going to the Mexican market later today. Will be looking for that eagle/snake/cactus flag, to stick on MY car!

craig.hill.brisbane posts: "So apparently white Americans in Minneapolis are putting Mexican flags on their cars so ICE agents waste time pulling them over. They call it ICE fishing."

Hypothetically if someone was accused of having sex with goats by over 30 different people and regularly denied it, but also dropped very public hints about how much he liked to have sex with goats for decades, and ran a goat pageant to find the best looking goats, and was best friends with someone who got convicted of fucking goats and trafficking goats to friends all over the world who also liked to fuck goats, and his name was in the classified goat fucker chronicles 5,000 times, and he wished other goat fuckers well in prison, what do you think the odds are that person is also a goat fucker?
