The internet had the potential to make humans so much smarter and interconnected. Instead, it's dumbing us down and siloing us off. A real tragedy.

Jared Kushner chats with Jeff Bezos.

He’s probably trying to get in on an inevitable grift.

A real tell on who is a real journalist and who feels bound by using the word of their source on this Birthright Citizenship stuff.

Also note that Senator Padilla asked Pam Bondi abt 14A in her confirmation hearing and she dodged by saying she would "study it," accused him of giving her homework.

Two years ago today we were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for protecting The US Capitol on January 6th 2021. Almost 4 years later the efforts to downplay, whitewash and minimize what happened appear to be succeeding. I won't ever stop standing up to them.

all i'm saying is it would've been nice to have this healthcare policy discussion *before* we gave a trifecta to the party that tried to strip coverage from tens of millions of people last time they were in power

RFK, Jr. has spent the last 20 years speaking out against vaccines.

But he claims he's not anti-vax.

Is he right?

A whiteboard from our Jan 2023 team retreat where I wrote down our goals, and the top one was “10k user signups.”

We’re growing by 10k users every 10-15 minutes right now.

It's cool and all to rip and rail about these bonkers cabinet picks on Bluesky, but tell your senator! Call their office, send an email. D or R, they need to know. Bonus, if they are on the Judiciary committee, tell them to demand the ethics report on Gaetz.

This gave me goosebumps.

“My 18-year-old daughter was at Starbucks, alone, the other night.

A man came up to her and started talking to her.

A barista handed her “an extra hot chocolate someone forgot to pick up.”

How grateful I am for people who look out for other people!”

We need each other.

Can’t express enough just how delightful it is to make a post and not have hundreds of hateful replies. Thanks, Bluesky. @bsky.app

I’m a Democratic strategist, so it is in my best interest to be quiet if I want to continue working, but I am finding it harder and harder to stay silent when our leadership seems incapable or unwilling to explain how we are going to fight the danger Trump presents

WOW. NBC News is reporting that more than half of the Republican Senate caucus privately admits that the Gaetz nomination will not succeed.

Repost if you think they should make their concerns public.
