Talking to Aaron right now and he said another huge cloud of chemical gas was just deployed

I’m a United States Army veteran. I crewed AH-1 Cobras, UH-1 Hueys, and UH-60 Blackhawks. I’d serve under Zelenskyy rather than Trump any day. Trump and his hand picked “reporters” do not represent me or the county I once served.
President Zelenskyy, I apologize to you for having to deal with Trump.
GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.

ZELENSKYY: I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours. Maybe something better.

This is so fucked up and embarassing.
It’s nice how they’ve replicated the middle school dynamic of the insecure bully and his sniveling sidekick picking on someone surrounded by a circle of scared little boys who also try to talk shit so the bully doesn’t come after them.

Or as the right calls it, “masculinity.”

If the richest man in the world rapidly disassembles every agency or institution capable of holding him accountable is there a way to stop him without violence?

His economic violence is real violence. Bullies force you to debase yourself to defend yourself.

Found out that TWENTY emails is considered a lot to politicians on an issue.

TWENTY.

As in, they call that getting slammed.

So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind.

TWENTY is a lot.

I hope people can start to get it. It’s the corrupt and power hungry against the rest of us.

Leave behind the paradigms you’ve been fed your entire life. It boils down to a class war with a group of criminals on one side and the rest of us on the other.
Some stunning remarks from Menendez outside court: “President Trump was right. This process is political, and it’s corrupted to the core. I hope President Trump cleans up the cesspool and restores the integrity to the system.”

Government systems have a ton of room for improvement. No doubt. But, they absolutely should not be run like corporations or by billionaires. These people have no concept of what communities need.

I don't get the sense that U.S. journalists have a good sense of who to talk to when basic government functions are being ripped out. Gutting the administrative state is not a standard beat. A short thread with some starter suggestions for who to read/talk to. Please - people add more in replies!

I paid to subscribe to several more independent publications today. We have to fund reporters who are willing and able to take a stand, put money behind good journalism, and ensure that there will be uncompromising reporting on culture, politics, and technology

barefootwriter has been my online moniker for ages. I borrowed the idea from a book about Taoism by a guy who called himself The Barefoot Doctor*, after rural medical practitioners in China.

The local Planned Parenthood presents as a progressive organization, a symbol of the right to choose. But behind the scenes, employees are starting to unionize, pushing back against low pay and bad working conditions. The CEO responded by hiring a union-busting firm at the rate of $425 an hour.
