A left leaning moderate who has lost sight of the middle ground. It is now all or nothing, and knowledge is still powerful, regardless of electoral calcification or the Faux News and it's far-right echo chamber.
"40 acres and a mule, this is bigger than music.
They tried to rig the game, but you can't fake influence"
I love how the NFL paid for one of the first significant public protests against this authoritarian and oligarchal power grab.

I like how President-Elect Trump says he is going to save TikTok for the masses.
Remind me, again, who started the chant to ban it in the first place? 🤔 I'm a bit hazy....

Chris Murphy on the latest House Republican funding plan: "This may not pass the House because all it takes is one tweet from a billionaire 15 minutes from now and House Republicans will go running for the hills. Musk and Ramaswamy are in charge of our govt right now it seems"

As Elon tries to blame 2 Democrats for the impending shut-down, he of course conveniently leaves out the part about how 38 RepubliCONs also voted against it.

FACT: The United States is the only developed country in the world without universal health coverage for all of its citizens - and that's absolutely shameful, especially for the most wealthy nation on the planet.

Trump said that rioters on January 6 had "no choice" but to assault police officers
If any Democrat in the country publicly justified the assault of a police officer it is all you would ever hear about for years

Democrats follow norms and the constitution. Republicans bust norms and the constitution. That’s life. When Dem President Biden pardons his son from abuse by a future Trump DOJ, the NYT is livid and disgusted. When Trump abuses everything the NYT only finds him unprincipled. Maybe we need new norms?

Trump can't guarantee that tariffs will cause higher prices....
He also can't guarantee he has any understanding of even the most basic fundamentals of economic theory, let alone how a tariff, or multitudes of them, actually work.

I don't know what is more insulting.
The fact that he is clearly so ignorant of actual world events as to generalize like them to the extent of an 8th grader or the fact that he doesn't realize he is part of WHY "the world is going a little crazy right now."
Way to miss the forest for the trees 🤐

There is no common ground with Republicans.
Their president-elect is a convicted felon & rapist who openly seeks revenge, gathers like-minded people around him, and wants to stay in power forever.
We don’t need quiet politeness. We need angry, loud, and visible Democrats.
Every. Damn. Day.

A Trump official was liable for rape? Gasp.....
It's not a surprise at all, considering Trump is also liable for raping at least one woman as well.
In Trump's cabinet, being a sexual predator is obviously a highly desirable prerequisite... 🤫

Is he exempt from the ETHICS agreement?
If he was a Democrat, Fox News wouldn't be able to stfu about it. It would be talked about 24 hours a day.
But Trump basically says he will be involved in shady dealings with conflicts of interest for 4 years, and it isn't even mentioned in MAGA world 🤯

Since Trump is taking credit for the mid-east ceasefire, I just noticed gas prices are starting to go back up.

It's amazing to me that Billionaires proclaim that they understand the lives of the common worker, and somehow, the common worker is naive enough to actually believe it.
A new generation of Robber Barons wanted to drive the bus, and we just laid down under the tires and tossed them the keys.
