So I've canceled WaPo, a year ago.
Canceled Disney.
Canceled Prime.
Canceled Paramount,
Canceled The Atlantic
Canceled HBO,
Defunded my investment accounts from countless companies.
Now, I'm just saving money.
How can this go wrong?
I don't think, in the long run at least, it could fail.

Two things they fear most: us connecting, and us boycotting the corporations that want to own us. This post does both. Starter pack drops tonight. I’ll begin with everyone who reposts, comments, interacts. Boycotts work—especially when they reach fresh eyes.

The thing that drives me nuts is we all understand that if we lied to millions of people using crime, no one would expect we’d wouldn’t go to prison. Meanwhile I continue to reveal Wall Street did that to tens of millions and we gave them tens of trillions ILLEGALLY. www.thecleannewdeal.org

Good way to flip the script
The far-right is angry because they're being judged by the content of their character rather than by the color of their skin. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Read the whole thread, it's short, but worthy of hearing what's actually happening in our names. I hate this timeline.
I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

Interesting thread on the disillusional mind of Trump. Hard to know if he's this confused on his pet ballroom project and just doesn't understand it all, or if he's lying in his usual style of inflating all the stats to create an image of grandeur that doesn't match reality.
🧵Someone from x asked me to post

“Here's why the new White House ballroom project is not real. (The demo is obviously real.) Some background - I am a licensed Architect with 20+ yrs of exp. I have worked on multiple Federal projects w sensitive building programs that required background checks

This is the fight and the reason we shouldn't give in.

It's also the reason the Republicans have allowed the government to shut down. They'd rather give tax breaks to people who frankly don't need them.

Those loosing their health care though, do.
Trump's Big Ugly Bill includes a $39B annual business tax break for millionaires.

For that same amount, we could extend the expiring ACA tax credits for a year — and still have $7B left over.

Priorities.

Quite the wild read. Thank you Anna.
EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

Love that sign. Very creative. Very inspiring.
Frogs in slowly heating water is a popular allegory for being unaware that you are being destroyed in an incrementally worsening situation.

But I'm drawing hope from the past week that we frogs may be a bit more aware of our situation than those allegorical frogs. #Hop

Peter Thiel paid me to stay home yesterday. I just cashed that big phat juicy check.

I protested anyway. Why not? I wonder if he'll ever figure out I was that guy in the frog costume here in Chicago.

I'm really looking forward to a nice walkabout downtown tomorrow. I wonder if anything is going on in Chicago on a saturday afternoon. I might stroll through a few of the parks that are there. It's really a wonderful shithole, I bet I'll be smiling the whole time.

However bad you think it is, it's more likely way worse.

Thank you for keeping the American public.
‼️‼️‼️ Got word of a new way the billionaire in charge of SSA is fucking over the American people!!!! TLDR: This will definitely lead to people applying for benefits losing out on money, and probably some hefty lawsuits for attorneys that know what’s up. The long version is gonna be long so let’s go.

Politico now requires readers to create an account to access their reporting. While still free, they want not just an email address but your employer's name and your job title. Nope. That ain't happening.
