I'm thinking today of all my fellow veterans but especially the more than 5,000 trans service members and their families who were kicked out of the military this year despite being highly qualified and serving honorably. This injustice will be a stain on our nation's history.

Caving on the shutdown won’t make you “moderate.” It makes you WEAK! Giving Republicans what they want for NOTHING more than a “promise” of a vote and risking millions of Americans’ healthcare isn’t compromise—it’s surrender and it’s the most RADICAL thing you could do in this moment. 1/

This capitulation will only embolden Trump to target other universities and institutions. This helps no one and only feeds the beast.
We must continue to stand with those who resist Trump’s lawlessness and call out those who don’t. Shame on Cornell.

If Elon Musk gave away 20% of his network, which is about $170 billion or so, he’d still be the second richest man. This kind of wealth is so fucking obscene.

My question is whether it was the drug use, Nazi salutes, election interference, racist and antisemitic tweets, creepy pronatalism, chilling sociopathy, puzzling inarticulateness, allegations of IP theft or persistent flouting of US law that pushed Tesla bros over the top on gifting Elon $1 trillion

In light of today's trial in United States of America I decided to finish the lyrics to this 👉
I threw the sandwich, but I did not throw the condiments
I threw the sandwich, but I didn't throw the condiments
All around Washington D.C.
They're trying to track me down
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the spilling of some mayonnaise
For wasting all the dijon, but I say

The DC sandwich guy has been charged with assault for shouting at a CBP officer, throwing a sub into his chest, and then running off.
"I did it. I threw the sandwich," he said while he was being processed.
