The Department of Education Forced Idaho to Stop Denying Disabled Students an Education. Then Trump Gutted Its Staff.
—

For years, the Education Department was the only agency that could ensure states would improve conditions for disabled children. Now, Trump’s cuts threaten to hamper its oversight.

The American people are a welcoming and generous people, they said after awarding residency to pale skin people that extracted from and subjugated people from South Africa,

As can be clearly seen in the fact that we're ending the social safety net, crashing the economy to enrich only the oligarchs, and using collective punishment against the entire state of Maine because they protect the civil rights of trans people there unlike in Texas where they also think it's helpful to put doctors in jail for protecting the civil rights of pregnant people

Very welcoming

Very generous

I guess it could be said that Peter Cook didn't make this cool, living artwork, but it's terrific that he created it by forcing the tree to grow into a chair over 8 years of work.

It's a start.

Via Kyle Griffin:

Leader Schumer is placing holds on all Justice Department political appointees in response to Trump's acceptance of a $400 million luxury jet as a gift from Qatar's royal family.

@GottaLaff honestly, I'm unsurprised this is the only one...so far

"The owner of a white supremacist account on X has reportedly been unmasked as a Dallas-area prosecutor who represents Immigrations and Customs Enforcement at court.

"James 'Jim' Joseph Rodden, 44, an assistant chief counsel for ICE who represents the agency in immigration hearings in the Dallas area, appears to be behind the account, which regularly shares racist and anti-immigrant takes..."

Yes. That’s the actual name!

I see someone at the NY Times reworked that headline. Good to see the word “Corruption” make an appearance:

“Trump’s Plan to Take Jet From Qatar Underscores Corruption Concerns”

@GottaLaff

And did Fox Biz follow up with the obvious question, "And should the Republican President accept the gift, will you do your Constitutional duty and call for his resignation or for his impeachment & removal?"

"it feels like things are moving in the right direction. The biggest problem here is that the half life of a #Trump trade policy seems to be about one #Scaramucci."

Republicans are willing to spend something like $45 million for Trump's idiotic military parade.

How many people could $45 million feed? How many could be clothed or housed for that amount? How many doctor's visits, how many childhood vaccinations, how many eye glasses for poor children?

Funny how these alleged Christians who wear their pious religion on their sleeve would rather spend money on a parade to glorify a rich man than do what their God actually asked of them, isn't it?

Just spoke with my CDC sources.

They said RFK Jr. has banned further testing of symptomatic farm workers after several tested positive for H5N1.

Internal messages warned CDC staff: “This is your last warning talk to the media about bird flu, and you’ll be fired and blacklisted from public health.”

The fear inside CDC is growing.

Silencing experts won’t stop the virus it only makes the outbreak harder to contain.

I need your support. Please Follow my page and spread the truth.

$21M for flights to Guantanamo. 32 migrants housed there. That’s $656,250 per “guest.” I hope they got a meal and a movie.

They’re blowing your money.

“The Trump administration spent at least $21 million transporting migrants to Guantanamo Bay on military aircraft between January 20 and April 8,” NBC News reports.

Since @MarshaBlackburn had no problem pushing the Biden bribery lie — has anyone asked her or SenatorHagerty if they approve of Trump getting a $400 MILLION “flying palace” (which he plans to keep) from Qatar or nah? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Librarians have guts.
Bravo!
“Staff members at the library balked and called the U.S. Capitol Police as well as their general counsel, Meg Williams, who told the two officials that they were not allowed access to the Copyright Office and asked them to leave, one of the people said.”

@TonyStark I'm struck by the thumbnail image here: antisemites want all the Jews to go back to Israel...except for when they want all the Jews to leave Israel. The proper place of the Jews is always Somewhere Else.
