Following @matthewcooke lead, I’m foregoing Meta products for a week. Question for BlueSkyers, is there an alternative to Instagram of old, when it was a photo sharing app?

Today Chuck Schumer will vote for a Continuing Resolution. We will soon find out if “Schumer’s Surrender” equates to Ludwig Kaas’ vote for the Enabling Act in March 1933 on the 53rd day of Hilter’s rein.

Today is day 53 of Trump’s second term.
Hitller gained dictatorial powers 53 days into his tenure as Germany’s Chancellor in March 1933. Ludwig Kaas’ political decision (leading the Centre Party to vote for the Enabling Act) was the moment Hilter achieved total control.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence.
He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials.
It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

Elizabeth Warren should be the Minority Leader. Chuck Schumer is weak and ineffective. Time for a change.
Warren: "He can stand there, smile at you and say, 'anybody can vaccinate their kids who wants to,' but he literally could bankrupt the vaccines manufacturers with the power he will have. And since he's got a financial incentive to do that, we cannot trust him in that job."

With the terrible tragedy over the skies of D.C., it’s time to prioritize safety. Trump must end the hiring freeze on air traffic controllers and restore the aviation safety advisory committee he dismantled on Jan 22.
