I just unfollowed 200+ of the big accounts and influencers so my following feed will allow smaller accounts to be seen. Instead of following the big accounts, I added them to lists so I can still check in on them, they just won’t be cluttering my follow feed.
Photos from North Charleston No Kings demonstration. Cannot get a sense of how large the crowd is but it is huge for this area. Both sides of street lined for blocks. At least a couple thousand.

What a moron.
Out of the blue, Trump called the Norwegian finance minister to ask when he would get the Nobel prize suggesting he would impose tariffs if he did not www.dn.no/politikk/fre...
Kilder til DN: Trump tok opp nobelpris i tolltelefon med Stoltenberg (+)
Ut av det blå, mens finansminister Jens Stoltenberg gikk på gaten i Oslo, ringte Donald Trump fra Det hvite hus. Han ville ha Nobelprisen – og diskutere toll.

I know this is a small example but it illustrates retailers are raising prices across the board and not just on products with tariffs. The only thing I buy at Whole Foods is refilling a 5 gallon jug with reverse osmosis water. Last week, it was $2.45. Yesterday, it was $2.95.

From this point forward, the jobs numbers will be cooked.
REPORTER: Why did you fire the head of the bureau of labor statistics?
TRUMP: Because I thought her numbers were wrong

Trump's DOJ and FBI have concluded they have no evidence that convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein blackmailed powerful figures, kept a "client list" or was murdered.
TRANSLATION: He absolutely blackmailed powerful figures, definitely kept a "client list," Trump was on it, and - he was murdered.

The vast majority of these accounts that claim to be #resistance subversives inside the federal government are grifters who are not what they pretend to be and do not have any real secret insider info.
Please stop listening to these accounts and stop boosting them.

The missing piece of this viral post is that the Texas officials are lying and deflecting blame. The NWS, hobbled as it is, issued an accurate flood watch for Kerr County the evening before and accurate escalating warnings overnight as the flood was developing.
After media reports & experts warned for months that drastic & sudden cuts at the Nat Weather Service by Trump could impair their forecasting ability & endanger lives during the storm season, TX officials blame an inaccurate forecast by NWS for the deadly results of the flood.

Searching to see if there were any warnings since trump cuts and found this. This says it’s a bot spreading NWS Alerts. They were spot on. Why was it not relayed to the public? @maddow.msnbc.com @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com @aoc.bsky.social

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

This is outrageous. I worry for my close family friends who have been here for 25 years, earned their citizenship and are productive members of society.
