Few months after and everyone has moved on from the sham of an election that put Trump back into power.
Critical questions need to be asked, questions like
How do we make it better?
How do we prevent irregularities in future elections?

These are but a few questions I think anyone should ask

Our stock market is crashing.

Our economy is contracting.

Our government is dismantling.

Our allies are fleeing.

Our grocery prices are rising.

But at least we now call it "The Gulf of America."

So it all evens out.

Rep. Jim Himes: Zelenskyy is watching 70,000 dead Ukrainians. Missiles are slamming into hospitals. This is what he’s seeing, and he comes to the Oval Office, and a reporter asks him why he’s not wearing a suit. And the effing VP wants him to say thank you…

Would like some thoughts on this from physicians on here.

Look at the way Trump moves his legs—like he’s having circulatory problems. And note the massive bruise we saw this week on the back of his hand.

Is he on blood thinners? If so, did he have a stroke at some point?

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people.

Be strong, be brave, be fearless.
You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy.

We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

Had a great time doing this interview with Jeff Flake, and thanks for the support @davidaxelrod.bsky.social it was invaluable.

The interview covers everything. My background. Shark tank. Politics. You name it

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.

Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law

Time to do things that make him react to you.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”

People are fleeing Florida and Texas. As of Jan. 2025, those states collectively accounted for over 30% of ALL homes for sale in the US. Florida had 157,221 active listings—the highest in the country—followed by Texas with 102,552.

Repressive state governments and rising insurance are to blame.
