I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

No one is safe from gun violence in America.

We do not have to keep living like this.

Instead of inciting more violence, our political leaders should use this moment to unite us around common sense gun reforms that a majority of Americans support.

There is no excuse for political violence in America. And no excuse for a U.S. president using a heinous killing as an occasion to treat his political opponents as accomplices to murder and threatening to use the full power of the government to attack them.

Not to mention, the victim was discussing mass shootings when he was shot.
there is nothing more american than news of a political shooting being interrupted by news of a school shooting

The month before a shooter opened fire on children gathered in a Minnesota church this week, the Trump administration cut funding in the state for efforts to identify potential mass shooters and head off their violence.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

@ncaafb.bsky.social SHAME for not taking away UM national championship. What is the deterrent for not cheating in the future if programs are not reprimanded?

The fiscal conservatives in the GOP just added $4 trillion to the deficit to give the wealthiest people on earth a tax cut. The pro-family party just took healthcare away from 17 million Americans to give ICE a bigger budget than Brazil’s military. The single most inhumane bill ever passed.

It's interesting that we live in a world where:
- I'm surprised Texas Senator Ted Cruz doesn't know basic facts about Iran, but simultaneously
- I would also be STAGGERED if the President of the United States knew even one basic fact about Iran.

I have been sick for a week and I just read about "something going around" in a subreddit, which I guess is how I get my information now that the CDC is officially spending the next four years determining when and how microscopes became gay.

Switching from Trump’s Amazon to the more diverse, equitable, and inclusive Costco is easier than you think. I made the switch. Now everything I need is delivered by Costco right to my door in two hours instead of two days - and without supporting oligarchs!

Schatz for blocking 300 Trump nominees
Bernie & AOC for rallying hundreds of thousands of Americans
Newsom for suing Trump over tariffs

Why can’t we ever get a billionaire who wants to create a better world, instead of a bunch of greedy hogs who will never in their lifetimes spend a fraction of the wealth they have accumulated. Absolutely disgusting

Warren Buffett, "I could end the deficit in 5 minutes," he told CNBC. "You just pass a law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more than 3% of GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for re-election.

I noticed over the past few days that workers in the retail/ customer service spaces have been borderline rude. They were different experiences but the energy has been that all of the workers are so stressed out right now - almost to a breaking point. I think there is an even larger movement brewing
