I can’t believe this has to be said, but: You cannot tell the story of Jackie Robinson—as a ballplayer, serviceman, or human—without discussing our country’s history of racism.

For most folks, democracy is local.

So get out and run for office.

The people are demanding change. Don’t just wonder when that change will happen.

Be that change.
It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

A tariff is a TAX.

The company pays it — then passes along the cost as a price increase to YOU.

So Donald Trump is raising YOUR taxes 25% — in January.

To recap: Trump is a rapist found liable for defaming the woman he raped. His pick for attorney general is currently accused of statutory rape at sex parties. His pick for defense secretary is accused of sexual assault.

But Sarah McBride using a restroom is the threat.

Okay.

Lots of people are about to be really mad that price of eggs goes up but they can’t get a 2nd job because they can’t afford childcare and when they do finally get the eggs they get E Coli because there’s no FDA but can’t go to the doctor because they got kicked off their health plan. #FAFO

There’s a reason so many academics are dismissive of the Trump/Musk/Vivek types and it’s that we’re all very aware of the Overconfident Bro Who Hasn’t Done the Reading But Still Wants to Lead the Discussion
