It makes me wonder what shenanigans Trump and his Secy Defense were cooking up that he’s this wild over MOC reminding enlisted about their obligation to decline unlawful orders.
Nobody reasonable gets this torqued off about following the rules as stated.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib as part of her Economic Dignity for All agenda has introduced a new version of her BOOST Act which is now a Universal Basic Income of $250/mo paired with a new 2.5% tax on incomes over $30k to function as a phaseout. That means everyone under $150k would see a net boost in income.

JG and UBI serve two different goals. UBI should be seen as a dividend and a way for EVERYONE to benefit from productivity growth. If I never lose my job, why should I not benefit from AI? It was trained on my data. We don't issue jobs to reward stockholders for putting up capital.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

About 4 million Americans will soon see their SNAP benefits eliminated or significantly reduced as a result of Trump's OBBBA changes now in effect as of Nov 1. That group includes children, seniors, veterans, and individuals with disabilities.
If we had UBI instead of SNAP, this would never happen.

A representative of MI GOP/ House side has posted that an A2 area high school has a “biological male” on their volleyball team and where the next match is.
A professional would take this up with MHSAA as a sit down meeting not focus on the student athlete.
I’m wholly embarrassed by this stooge.

Everything is going so great that Fox News will be waging war on Christmas this year.
Fox guest on how to save money during the holidays:
"Remember, adults don't need gifts. Focus on the people in your life who are aged 3 to 18. Grandma doesn't need slippers. If they don't live by you, don't get them a gift."

We need a drum beat for universal basic income and healthcare that only gets louder and louder. Consider taking a moment each day to post at least one thing about the need for them, or to repost what others have posted. I do this every day. You can use my timeline to save time. To those who do, TY!

Every time I hear a politician say that an issue is “dividing” this country they always then come down on the side of the right wing view of it. Just once I’d love to hear someone say “this issue is divisive, which is why I’m making the argument that kindness and compassion is important”

Lions need a center. The rest of that O line comes together when Glasgow is a guard and we had a ready to go replacement for Ragnow - like the Eagles did when Kelce retired.

This is could well be a historic midterm for Democrats.
Don’t waste it on centrists who won’t come through when it matters. Run vocal progressives.
You won’t end Trumpism without anti-corruption crusaders and warriors for social and economic justice who believe in taxes & big, universal programs.

Those claiming Dems should retreat on racial justice aren't hard-headed realists, they're pushing against the electoral tide rather than leaning into it. The story of Gen Z isn't about racist backlash or red-pilled young men. It's the most racially progressive generation in American history. 🧵
