America, you f**ked up!

She warned us. She had a plan that would have benefited everyday Americans. But too many ignored her—because it was never really about the economy.

Now folks are scared, struggling—and we’re cooked.

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

I'm working on a starter pack... its focus is Information Warfare, Covert Ops and Propaganda... trying to fill gaps on existing lists of 'disinfo' experts and bring in a wider sweep of experts on covert ops & information warfare, broadly defined. go.bsky.app/7NTCqKZ

REPORTER: Is there an inconsistency with Republicans railing against 'unelected bureaucrats' in charge and yet ceding Article 1 powers to the executive branch under Elon Musk?

I remember playing Sim City years ago, and after I'd built up a thriving metropolis I would sometimes get really bored and jack the tax rate up as high as I could & cut off funding to police & fire departments just to see what would happen.

Not mentioning this for any particular reason.

This starter pack of editors at Canadian publications is woefully incomplete. Please help me find the many people I've missed! This could be useful for freelancers, other editors, comms people, and more — if we can find the rest of us. go.bsky.app/SJgutHX

I'm going to start working on this, and will add to it as more major media outlets join Bluesky.

I expect the pace to pick up very soon and very significantly.

Major media has let us down significantly over the last ten years, but it's still vital to know what's being reported. go.bsky.app/2JyEju6

Look... even if you're already following tons of people, you will *still* want this pack.

This one has a decidedly #cdnpoli vibe. Lots of journos too.

Many on this list just joined today, let's give them a warm welcome!

I've put together a starter pack of people who post about money, finance, business, labour, and other parts of the economy -- a mix of journalists, academics, and other wonks.

Open to suggestions! If you're looking for #fintwit on here, this could be a good place to start.
