@RollingStone #TheHeadLiar as POTUS again renews Russia as his personal ally, the GOzP finds new love for Vlad as Orange Man threatens the coherence of NATO. It would not end in a day, but soon after in Russia’s favor. We might even have our own Civil War V2 to look forward to. 😳

Donald Trump has boasted that if he were president again, he could end Russia’s war with Ukraine. But Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky called bullshit, saying that Trump already had his chance to end Vladimir Putin’s aggression against his country. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/zelensky-trump-claim-end-war-russia-1234785289/

There seems to be a great number of bee keepers and "bee allies" on Mastodon. Is this true? If it is, I find that very reassuring.

I am planning to incorporate a feature into the bot that consistently posts news stories concerning the U.S., sourced from reputable outlets like Jacobin and Democracy Now. This feature is intended to offset the surge of more trivial content that often trends on social media and is automatically picked up.
Despite everything I have tried it still favors a lot of garbage stories.

Sure would be nice if there were actual consequences for the mind-bendingly corrupt conservatives on the Supreme Court.

The Republican Party is going broke in Arizona?
The AZ GOP HAD $770K 4 years ago but now only holds $50K after buying rounds of “election fraud” challenges and shady cyber ninjas
Hm.
So Trump is going to Make America Great Again by bankrupting the GOP

@GottaLaff@mastodon.social I understand where you are coming from. This is semantics. When I use the term it is a condemning way, describing a pattern. It would certainly not be a word in this case to describe an acceptable standard. It’s a terrible standard/pattern that hopefully most people would not want, accept for the My Precious crowd, with lots of thoughts and prayers and all manner of excuses about why their liberty trumps dead children. 🤔
@MSNBC Most disheartening is that this walking, talking train wreck is considered a viable candidate for our top leadership position. Is this what the beginning of a collective, voluntary national implosion looks like? 😳

I remember when people tried to blame herbicide for this. And if they banned it, NOTHING would have been done to help these workers.
Chasing the wrong claim because of your ideology helps nobody. See also mercury in vaccines and other RFKJr top hits.
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social Sadly the daily mass shooting somewhere in America has become the norm, although most of us can say we did not experience it.
