White bros have tanked the economy OVER AND OVER AND OVER again. It's a testament to white supremacy that they continue to hold the power to do this.

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?

But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.

But that's just me

Barack Obama *ILL-ADVISEDLY* ran against Bobby Rush in 2000. He lost by 30%. Many of us absolutely knew he would lose at the time in Chicago. 3 years later he was running for Senate. Anyway, "waiting your turn" in politics is ridiculous. You run when you want to run & failure is fine.

The pending illegal war with Venezuela has nothing to do with drugs. This administration doesn't give a shit about Fentanyl deaths. It's about oil, Venezuela is sitting on top of the biggest oil reserves in the world.

The avg home sale price in the Milwaukee area in October was $437,000, and yet some legislators think $7.25/hr is a perfectly acceptable minimum wage.

A minimum-wage worker could spend their entire salary before taxes on a mortgage and still not come close to affording a home in this market.

I’m sure the rightwing lady is making content out of this and it’s genuinely such a good tactic by Kat here to just be like uh huh, yes keep explaining it, no I don’t want it, it seems very weird and sad, please keep going on though, explain it all, explain how normal this is”
Yesterday, a Republican tried to give me holy water and Trump perfume because I’m “demonic.”

Extremely normal stuff coming from an extremely normal party.

It used to be so much easier on the internet. You’d have a video of a dramatic chipmunk and everyone would agree it was perfect but then you could add a little lightsaber to him and everyone would go huzzah now the text is even richer

NEW: We’ve uncovered the first known example of taxpayer money flowing from DHS to businesses controlled by Kristi Noem’s allies and friends.

It’s part of a money trail that’s been shrouded in secrecy—and involves $220 million, a mysterious Delaware LLC & a horse named Gill.

Yesterday, I pleaded not guilty to the charges that Trump’s DOJ has hit me with in federal court.

This administration is targeting me because they can see that I’ve spoken out against them and will continue to stand up to them.

So I guess the idea is that Ghislaine Maxwell got transferred to a country club prison that someone with her sentence would never go to and gets all sorts of perks but that’s completely coincidental, that just happened unrelatedly

Jut for clarification, here in Melbourne, Australia an 8kW solar system with 20 panels will cost about $A8,000. This is after the Victorian government solar rebate. I have NO idea where they are getting these $US20K-50K prices from 🤔🙄

There is a phishing attempt going through @bsky.app DMs.
Please mind your opsec.
If @safety.bsky.app @support.bsky.team have issues with your account, you should receive an email from them as opposed to a random DM.
Stay frosty.
So, I feel a little dumb for asking, but this is phishing, yes?
