I've heard quite a few posters who are still mainly on twitter, say they're staying because, "we still have to fight the good fight..." or something like that. I think that's one of the big problems for progressives - they think posting on social media is actually doing something.

USAID is a criminal organization,” Mr. Musk wrote on Sunday in a social media post that many aid workers saw as confirmation the agency would soon be absorbed into the State Department and that some viewed as a potential threat to their personal safety. “Time for it to die.”

The US imports $86 B (or 44% of total food imports) from Mexico and Canada, on which 25% tariff's will be imposed TOMORROW. Mexico imports 90% of avocados, 35% of orange juice and much more. Do the math S&P loses 1.5% so far on the news. tinyurl.com/jsz86yvt

Trump tariffs to stoke US food inflation despite pledge to lower costs
U.S. consumers grappling with soaring prices for beef and eggs will face even higher costs for meat, vegetables and fruit if President Donald Trump imposes tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports, economists and food industry executives said.

Photobombed by a caribou.
I was trying to get a shot of a golden eagle (through a car window), and an attention-craving caribou managed to crash the party.
I never did get a decent photo of the eagle.

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here
THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be.
You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion.

In 1979, Jimmy Carter had solar panels installed at the White House.
Ronald Reagan had them removed.
We may be able to trace back the current "Do Harmful Things if it Trolls the Libs" Republicanism to Reagan removing those panels the far more forward thinking Carter had installed.
