This cannot be true, right?! WTF?????????


You just gotta laugh at this. Trying to turn his birthday into a national holiday when there is already a national holiday on that date is the most Trump thing ever. Trying to downplay national holidays that are celebrated by minorities is just petty but again pretty much in line with this administration.

This response off Reddit was perfect.

TL; DR just another authoritarian republican attempt to divide us and ignore the real issues we need them to deal with.


Senator Moreno,

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the Exclusive Citizenship Act and its implications for American values. At a time when our nation faces urgent and complex challenges, this legislation seems misaligned with the priorities that truly matter to U.S. citizens.

Historically, countries that banned dual citizenship include:

  • USSR
  • Nazi Germany
  • People’s Republic of China
  • North Korea
  • Saudi Arabia
Is your goal to emulate the policies of authoritarian regimes?

If I were to list the existential threats to the United States, at the very top would be the national debt, which now exceeds $34 trillion, with interest payments projected to surpass defense spending in the coming years. Senator Moreno, as you are my elected official, I ask:
  • What are you doing to reduce the national debt and the threat it poses to U.S. citizens?
  • What are you doing to ensure Americans have access to affordable healthcare that doesn’t lead to bankruptcy?
  • What are you doing to reduce political polarization, which bills like yours only exacerbate?
  • What are you doing to protect the U.S. from state-sponsored cyberattacks targeting our power grids, financial systems, and defense networks?
  • What are you doing to mitigate economic loss and population displacement caused by climate change?
Why prioritize questioning Americans’ loyalty when these urgent threats remain unresolved? Your bill suggests doubt about the commitment of everyday Americans. I would ask instead: What is your commitment to the ideals of America?

True American principles center on liberty and personal choice—not government-imposed restrictions on citizenship or loyalty pledges. I urge you to withdraw your bill and focus on addressing the critical challenges that threaten our nation’s security, prosperity, and unity.

Nah, I can't imagine what you posted is true.........

Our government is now run by jr high level thinkers.



HHS changed the name of transgender health leader on her official portrait​


As you walk down a particular hallway on the seventh floor of the Humphrey Building in Washington, D.C., you'll find a line of photographic portraits of all the people from years past who have led the Public Health Corps at the federal Department of Health and Human Services.

Only one of those portraits is of a transgender person: Adm. Rachel Levine, who served for four years as President Biden's assistant secretary for health. She was the first transgender person to win Senate confirmation, and her portrait has been displayed in the hallway since soon after she was confirmed in 2021. The role is a four-star admiral position in charge of the Commissioned Corps of the U.S. Public Health Service.

Levine's official portrait was recently altered, a spokesperson for HHS confirmed to NPR. A digital photograph of the portrait in the hallway obtained by NPR shows that Levine's previous name is now typed below the portrait, under the glass of the frame.
 
FAFO MF’er.
A great editorial on this.
How many times are MAGA going to say "Deport them all!!!!! Oh wait, not our friends! No, no, only your friends. Don't deport ours!"





Most town residents voted for these men. Whether they realize it or not, they’re getting what they wanted. On Election Day, they chose cruelty.

Expressions of dazed disbelief punctuate Wenzl’s story like infuriating landmines: “If you know Joe, you know Kobach picked the wrong guy” “Deportation would be, as I told Joe, like sending me to Egypt.” “He doesn’t take anything about America for granted.”

Ceballos, who has been elected twice, mistakenly thought his green card granted a right to vote. Residents who know Ceballos agonized about his registration, wondering if they should have provided better guidance. He didn’t mean to deceive back in 1991, they say, and shouldn’t be made to pay the price.

But as they agonized, none appears to make the leap that blind allegiance to a party that demonizes immigrants might have contributed to the problem.
 
Constitution be damned!

The Seven Tenets of the Satanic Temple, while not sounding evil I can see that they may be difficult for conservative Christians to tolerate, especially the third one:

I
One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.
II
The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.
III
One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.
IV
The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own.
V
Beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one's beliefs.
VI
People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one's best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused.
VII
Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.
