My statement on the proposed Senate deal
This is one of the few pieces I’ve read on the genocide in Darfur that offers clear action points: @nba.com & Disney need to make demands on Emirates to stop funding the paramilitary for its own goals. And US govt needs to stop selling arms to Emirates

US Govt needs to do so much more to protect Rohingya, both in Myanmar & in Bangladeshi refugee camps. To protect human rights AND for strategic reasons. Allowing China to step into the humanitarian void (worldwide) is taking us back decades. wapo.st/3TQLFYg
Opinion | The U.S. shouldn’t ignore the starving Rohingya of Myanmar
Myanmar’s junta has cut off food to Rohingya in squalid camps. Those in Bangladesh try to flee by boat.

Always knew Murkowski was a liar & a delulu self-centered politician. Had no idea she was such a total psycho, totally creating her own false reality. Watch this intvw below. Hope you enjoy the warm weather in hell, Sen Murkowski👿🔥
Sen. Lisa Murkowski stared me down for more than 10 seconds when I asked about the criticism she was receiving about the deal struck to get her vote on the OBBB.

Words of wisdom here🤩🤩
Did you ever notice how moving to "the middle" usually means a Democrat must embrace Republican positions?
That's because there is no actual "center" in politics. It's a false concept that somehow only tilts politics to the right.
Republicans never move an inch, except further toward extremes.

Yes yes, been saying this. Best way for some of these civic leaders to show you care abt NYC is to drop out and throw your support to 1–2 candidates who have a pathway to winning agnst these two gross dudes who can’t let go of power🗳️🗳️
We're going to need NYCers to wake up (never our strong suit in an off-off year) and remember who Cuomo is, and we're going to need some of the non-awful candidates to drop out and endorse stronger non-awful candidates.

Trump backed GOP into a big corner with his “balanced budget” point.
The ONLY way House GOP could even think about upholding their “no cuts to Medicaid” swing seat promises and their spending cut mandates is deficit spending and bad math.
Now they have to gut Medicaid & hand it to Elon in public.

Still mad abt Hulu starting late & ending super early w the Oscars. Not just bc it’s my Super Bowl. It’s a specific ex of corporate overloads & ultra-wealthy who can’t produce a workable product. Zero accountability for these folks/entities is a key feature of this current regime & what got us here.

Another example of how T’s voters have been fooled w his lies. Cutting the mechanisms for getting Social Security checks into folks’ accounts goes straight to the heart of how this regime is stealing from everyday Americans❌🤑❌
The Social Security Administration is cutting 7,000 jobs and closing half of its regional offices. It's no coincidence that Elon Musk called Social Security a "ponzi scheme." They're gutting the program YOU'VE PAID INTO to make room for more billionaire tax cuts.
Now is the time to speak up.
