    I am required by my state to complete 2hrs of asbestos safety training a year, and i dont even work with it directly. It is crazy dangerous and my jaw is on the floor that this is real.

    I did not have “asbestos returns” on my 2025 bingo card. What’s next, DDT?

      Americans love Russia because Russia told them they are fellow conservatives who also hate purple haired gay people. All while regulatory capturing their country and destroying them.

      Americans are brain-cooked by 30 years of 24/7 Big News brainrot. the rest of the world has been aware of that since the mid 2000s. and its only multiplied since then.

      I mean, it’s been obvious for over a decade. When he came out warning about some obscure country that people should be wary of, and nobody (including him, to be clear) has ever heard of this “threatening” country or faction or whatever, with absolutely zero context or relevance to the US, and just happens to be in the crosshairs of Russia…. Yeah.

      I am searching for this crazy-ass irrelevant unscripted tangent he went on, but when I search for “trump russian talking points opposing country”, even tossing “first term” in there, I am inundated with all of the recent talking points he has been making. This wasn’t Ukraine, by the way. I wish I remembered, but I have better things to do than dig through the historic tire fire that is this administration.

      Trump’s support for asbestos has been welcomed in Russia, a primary asbestos supplier to the US. In 2018, a Russian asbestos company began marketing asbestos with Trump’s face and a seal reading “Approved by Donald Trump, 45th President of the United States.”

      Fuck’s sake.

    “What is the absolute dumbest fucking thing we can do this afternoon? I know!”

    Remember kids, congress could put a stop to this tonight. And by “this”, I mean the trump presidency. Just think about that for a while.

    I guess other countries won’t need to defend themselves against the US in the future because Trump is actively trying to kill off more Americans than any other country could.

      Wild to think this guy might literally have killed me

      He fires vax experts, another pandemic hits, we scramble but it’s too late… maybe you die, maybe me, maybe us both.

      Wild
