@MalcolmNance Is Ukraine also the first country that needed to shoot down 400+ Shahed drones per night?

I picked cherries 🍒 in Ontario when I was a kid (14?). I was visiting family in Niagrara and it was a summer job. I did it a few days: hard work up on a ladder trying to pick as fast as you can without hurting the cherries or yourself. It was hot. The experienced mostly Jamaican workers could do it way faster than me. I lasted just a few days before the owner politely told me I should find other work. 😆

I appreciate the people who work the fields for us to have fresh fruit on the table.

@flexghost The more Donald Doofus diverts the idiot’s mind to tariffs, the less his big orange ass has to do for the people of America. Let’s be honest, hasn’t this been his normal playbook from the very beginning? I mean, this piece of sh*t in the Oval Office will only make problems far worse by doing nothing… And the amount of lives lost due to COVID, should be proof that Donald Doofus is absolutely useless as a human being… Remember those brave students in the Kurdistan region of Iraq?

More Deaths Coming: Trump's reckless move will put countless lives at stake. For decades, a weather satellite program has helped us track deadly storms. It’s data distribution is being terminated as hurricanes, fueled by the climate crisis, continue to grow stronger. www.eenews.net/articles/tru...

Trump terminates satellite dat...

If we don't let poor children starve, who will the conservative Christians feel superior to?

Republicans are vile savages and will never be anything but harmful to civilization and decency.

"NEW: the Trump admin has moved to terminate TPS for Honduras & Nicaragua, covering >50K ppl.

Both of these designations date back to 1999, meaning Trump wants to strip legal status from ppl here legally who've had a background check every 18 months for the last 26 yrs.

They're the single-most proven compliant noncitizens in the country -yet Trump/Miller wants to have them purged anyway."

"When tornados recently swept through Missouri and Tennessee and Kentucky, there were a few reports about local NWS office staffing shortages. The reports were explained away the next day by Caroline Leavitt at the White House saying that the cuts had not affected 'overnight' staffing at local offices."

According to Heather Cox Richardson, the forecasts were accurate but the storm changed abruptly and:

"former NWS officials ... told Christopher Flavelle of the New York Times that the problem appeared to be that NWS had lost the staffers who would typically communicate with local authorities to spread the word of dangerous conditions. Molly Taft at Wired confirmed that NWS published flash flood warnings but safety officials didn’t send out public warnings until hours later."

"The journalists also note that the Trump administration's 2026 budget calls for eliminating 'all of NOAA’s weather and climate research labs along with institutes jointly run with universities around the country.'”

"Remigration" is ethnic cleansing. Eliminationist economics at work. "Aryanization": a Nazi euphemism for systematically taking property from persecuted groups. It started as "voluntary" due to economic coercion, later became theft backed by violence.

@jerrygoff The kids were in a Quristion camp. Maybe Dog is telling them something. I'm not sure getting on your knees and blubbering will help.
