@RBReich lol reliable

Trump says he's wants to privatize USPS because it's "unprofitable". Reminder that the Post Office isn't a for-profit enterprise: it's a public service that guarantees everyone in America reliable, affordable, and universal mail service.

@RachelBitecofer Isn’t there something in the Bible telling people to not judge others, or what about those without sin cast the first stone. Or what about getting off of X and living your life where nothing has changed besides how you choose to perceive the world. Idk. Pick one.

You cannot be a Christian and support Trump.

Guess who?

@boringdystopian HELL YEA!!!! USA USA USA USA

noting you do to reduce your impact on the climate will ever compensate for the existence of americans

@AesPolitics1 President - Elect holds no power until January 20th. Man can’t do anything, how is he worse on the issue? Lol

6-7 million people didn’t vote for Harris because of Gaza and Israel. Now they are complaining about Trump being worse on the issue. I have no fucking words..

You're touching on a common point of confusion regarding magnetism in iron. Here's a clarification: - **Solid Iron**: In its solid state, iron can indeed be magnetized, and it retains its magnetic properties due to the alignment of its magnetic domains. However, when iron is heated to its Curie temperature (approximately 770°C for iron), it loses its permanent magnetic properties because thermal agitation causes the magnetic domains to become disordered. - **Liquid Iron**: When iron is molten, individual atoms are free to move around, and the structure that allows for aligned magnetic domains in solid iron does not exist. However, the key here is not the magnetism of iron in its typical sense but the generation of a magnetic field through electromagnetic induction: - **Dynamo Effect**: In the Earth's outer core, the molten iron isn't magnetized in the way solid iron can be. Instead, as this liquid iron moves due to convection currents, it conducts electricity. The movement of these electrically conductive fluids through a magnetic field (even if initially weak or from another source) creates electric currents. These currents, in turn, generate magnetic fields through electromagnetic induction. This process is self-sustaining because the magnetic field generated can induce more currents, perpetuating the cycle. - **Magnetic Field Generation**: The magnetic field isn't produced by the magnetic properties of individual iron atoms in their liquid state but by the macroscopic effect of these currents. The Earth's rotation adds complexity to this system by influencing the flow patterns of the molten iron, which helps in generating and maintaining the magnetic field we observe at the surface. So, while it's true that melted iron doesn't retain permanent magnetism like solid iron, the dynamic movement of molten iron in the Earth's core under the influence of convection and rotation can still generate a magnetic field through the dynamo process. This field behaves differently from the static magnetic fields we associate with magnets but is critical in creating Earth's protective magnetosphere.

@elonmusk How do we *really* know if the earth's core is molted metal.....when we've never even come close to digging that far? Also, metal loses its magnetism when it's melted, so....perhaps it's time for some new theories on how stuff works? 🧐

We live on a thin crust of solid rock, beneath which is vast ball of molten rock. Earth’s core, which generates most of our magnetic field is ~85% iron and moves independently from the surface plates, which is why the magnetic pole changes position.

@anders_aslund Trump isnt president yet, dawg.

Suddenly, the US stock market has soured on the Trump presidency. The most obvious explanation is that Fed is not likely to cut the interest rate as much as anticipated, since inflation just rose. But this is hardly the full explanation./1

@leftcoastbabe Cause Joe doesn’t give a fuck any more. He’s so hype for retirement lol. He’s been smiling ear to ear since election night.

So if a President has unlimited power and can make recess appointments, why doesn't President Biden just appoint all the judges he wants as soon as Congress adjourns for the year. For that matter, what is stopping Joe from expanding the Supreme Court before he leaves?

Yes, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) has removed her pronouns from her X bio. This change was noted to have occurred sometime between August 3, 2023, and May 28, 2024, according to the Internet Archive, and the removal has been the subject of discussion on social media platforms like X. However, the removal of pronouns from her bio does not appear to be a recent change directly linked to the election results, as it was done well before the election.

JUST IN: AOC removed her pronouns from her bio

@skooookum She did this back in May…ish

@GrandpaDennisP Is it illegal to not sign ethics pledge? Lol

TRUMP HAS REFUSED TO SIGN THE ETHICS PLEDGE. HE SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO ASSUME OFFICE UNTIL HE DOES. MY GOD, AREWE GOING TO ALLOW THIS CRIMINAL TO SKIRT THE LAW AGAIN WITH NO ACCOUNTABILITY ? I’M GETTING REALLY TIRED OF THIS SCENARIO.

@StayWonked *Insert False Narrative* Imagine that.

MAGA cult losing their minds over some of these appointments. Realizing they were conned by Trump. Imagine that.

@heathergtv I feel like some positions will be declined… but Elon musk cutting wasteful government spending? Shoe in for a Republican controlled house and senate

I am pleased to announce the President-elect does NOT have the authority to create a government agency without the approval of Congress.

@rustyrockets To be fair. Colbert needs to pander to the audience his show draws. They want that and that’s why they keep showing up. If he wasn’t that way, they wouldn’t like the show lol.

It isn't my job to tell you what to do. But IT IS my job to tell you not to trust people who act like they're there to help you when in fact they're facilitating the government's control of you.

@jentayIor Bro. He’s 78 lol

politics aside. gotta be a strong contender for the ugliest president ever

@adamfrancisco_ Did you read the article? They want a free Palestine and Jerusalem as capital lol.

Promises made promises kept. ☮️

@johnpavlovitz Your ability to not cope and wish bad misfortune on others based on a crystal ball is very… interesting. It’s even more interesting that you believe the words that come out of your mouth are fact, not opinion. Truly and interesting case study.

Right now, MAGAs are pumping out their chests because they think they and Trump defeated us. It’s when they can’t pay their mortgages or afford groceries or get health insurance that they’ll realize Trump was the singular enemy all along, and that we were fighting for them, too. And by then it will be too late.

@moneycaa So you mean to say… the DOE is ineffective and failing?

@lawindsor You fell for the bait. Congrats.

Hey, credulous media, I hope this clears things up for you:

@lalisasaura By your logic, only republicans will have children. What message you sending?
