Thought we had already been plenty enough re-districted here in Texas. Guess they haven't realized yet that many of their new legislative actions are just NOT what we want and we are going to vote them out next year.
While we wait for the Supreme Court to rule in a critical redistricting case from Louisiana, this is what the GOP is up to in Texas and Ohio. Remember the GOP's plan is to make it harder for you to vote and easier for them to cheat.

2,169 events across 20 countries. Millions of peope are standing up tomorrow to say with one voice: No Kings!

Yep, this is a Drumpf event.
• $1000, fast food lunch & a soda, red cap.
• People of color & ethnic groups preferred (is this why ICE is raiding these groups?)

Can't wait to hear how historic the crowd size will be. Man, I wish the weather would really turn nasty along the route.

I'm confused. Haven't we known for quite some time that the former guy is in the Epstein files?

WOuldn't it be great of no one showed up to watch?
Disgusting. Disgusting is the word.
In preparation for next week’s parade/demonstration, tanks are being moved into Washington, DC today. Unprecedented.

I hope this isn't true. This guy is truly funny. Why would someone feel they had to f*ck with that?
Do you know this man? I do. He has 160+ million followers on TikTok. He’s apolitical; he does Vaudevillian silent comedy making fun of stupid life hacks. Far-right MAGA influencer Bo Loudon is bragging that he dimed out Khaby Lame and got him detained by ICE.

And he did. TikTok is going to go nuts.

Duh!

Geez, how did we ever argue before social media? How did we go tit-for-tat when millions weren't watching? Was it nearly as effective? Gad, I miss those days...
Trouble in paradise...

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government.

But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes.

Where is the outrage over that?

And is he taking all the private databases that they downloaded with him?

He already got all the data he wanted. It doesn't take 130 days to download it all.

They promised to be available to help with the "migrant crisis". I've been wondering if they are behind the "ICE" masks.
So, is everybody happy that the ##ProudBoys are making a comeback after being pardoned for the death and violence of the #insurrection? I wonder when they’ll be invading our neighborhoods.

I think they count on AI to sort things out and so far it is not going well. But, hey, with billions of accounts, they have a large training ground to experiment with.
A subtext to this WSJ piece is how similar Zuckworld and Trumpland are: scammers reign, rules are ignored, and real people suffer
"“The alleged underenforcement of Meta’s monitoring policies cannot give rise to liability,” the co wrote last year in a motion to dismiss a lawsuit alleging negligence in removing crypto scams, adding it “does not owe a duty to users” to address fraud on its platforms.

Scary to me is that I do not think he actually wrote it... which begs the question, does his "writer" have to stay up all night with him to convert his gibberish into a tweet?
1:34AM, jacked on addy and dumping word vomit by the gallon. Totally sane, right?
It’s still hard for me to believe that after so many years of deranged posts like this, we’ve still never had a serious national conversation about this man’s mental health.

Kinda looks like mankind was already there... and destroyed it.

Funny is imagining how many times he repeated those words to himself so he wouldn't forget them. Gotta wonder if he actually picked them out. They certainly don't seem random.
“Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.”

It’s chilling to see the most powerful man in the world bragging that he passed a test that they give people to find out whether they should be allowed to take the bus by themselves.

Just heard they are planning to add one of those crypto facilities in the countryside northwest of Houston. And it seems citizens have no say.
Top story: While Bitcoin is designed as a decentralized payment system that bypasses banks and credit cards, its consumption of Texans’ true wealth—our natural resources—is centralized in the hands of a few companies, sucking up massive amounts of water and energy to keep hardware running 24/7.
The Crypto Racket
Bitcoin mining afflicts locals with noise pollution, threatens water supplies, and receives generous public backing.
