Up early with the clocks turned back to learn Trump put on a Gatsby-style party for the rich while people are starving.

What can we do to fight back? What messages can we share to shake up people who are silent and afraid?

Why are we paying the Republican Congress for not showing up and not working?

Take away their health care. This shutdown is a distraction for them, so stop paying them! Vote them out!

How long will it take to stop this madness?
Trump is intentionally destroying the WH, our future, the climate, erasing history, starting wars, & taking away freedoms. He's stealing from the poor to pay himself.

Time for all of us to RISE against Fascism.

Reagan's speech against tariffs. Yes, Reagan did say NO on tariffs and yes on free and fair trade in 1987.

Just curious...

How did Trump get away with tearing the East Wing down without permission?

What happened to the paintings/artifacts of the First Ladies?

Is he digging a bunker under the ballroom?

When will his followers see that he doesn't care about them?

How do we stop this madness & chaos?

Any member of Congress or the Senate who does not act on this threat of WAR is just as guilty as Trump. He is demonstrating daily how UNFIT he is.

This is TREASON.

It is time to hold Trump and his unqualified administration accountable. Soon, he will come after all of us.

25th Amendment NOW.

It's like ... they are doing whatever they can to take down the government. I mean, they're probably saying, "let's put in the most unqualified people in positions of power."

Enough already. 22 years old... give me a break. And WTF is with that eyebrow?

Interesting article. Curious what this will mean for education, CTE, higher ed, etc. #AI #FutureReady

At a time when people are understandably focused on the daily chaos in Washington, these articles describe the rapidly accelerating impact that AI is going to have on jobs, the economy, and how we live.
