Some notes on today’s news cycle:
1. If you don’t break something you don’t need to fix it
2. It’s laughable to think Drug companies are going to lower their prices because they’ve been asked to
3. Corruption in the open is still corruption
Hope this helps clear things up.

So the last things that the Pope did before his passing were to make a statement about his hospital stay that Everything works when wine are in charge, and to scold JD for being a bad Catholic. Very powerful, RIP.

Gosh. If only there were an historical analogue we could study to learn about the horrors of rounding people up without due process and sending them to torture camps in other countries.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

Somebody needs to get this message to Schumer.
Authoritarians govern through fear, not legislation. The simple fear of what they would do in certain situations can push even the opposition to capitulate. That’s success for them.

We lose when we fold due to a hypothetical. We win when we challenge the REALITY that is hurting working people.

In a shock to no one, this back and forth on imposing and not imposing tariffs does not seem to be instilling confidence in the stock market.

Folks are frustrated with Dems in Congress right now.

Here’s my solution - get the hell out of DC and hold some hearings.

I love town halls, but we need to focus on people right now. Have folks come testify about how these cuts are affecting them.

Get local media there.

Make it real.

Do you think the Scientologists and Mormons understand that under the new Christian Nationalist regime they won’t be allowed to exist? Thinking we should let them know and see what happens… Let the cults take each other out.

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

I know a lot of people have said to buy paper copies of books because digital ones can be deleted by a company. But here’s how you can put your kindle books onto a hard drive.

I need one of the platforms to have a button that indicates “I appreciate you sharing this information, but I don’t like the information” putting a “❤️” makes it seem like I agree with the sentiment of the post. Maybe an 🤨 or 😳

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

Can someone explain why TikTok is a bigger national security concern than a social media platform run by a South African technofeudal oligarch actively interfering in our elections and sabotaging our national interests here and abroad?

Why are CEOs of other companies not pushing for universal healthcare? Isn’t paying for employees healthcare hurting their bottom line?

If McConnell wants to avoid the dual ignominy of being the senator most responsible for America’s descent into authoritarianism and its reversion to a devastating “America First” foreign policy, he might gather some Republican allies and put country above Trump www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
Opinion | McConnell has the chutzpah to complain about Trump’s ‘America First’
Mitch McConnell bears great responsibility for the return of Trump and his foreign policy.

Publish the ERA
The Equal Rights Amendment is the proposed 28th Amendment to the Constitution that would guarantee equal rights to all people regardless of sex. Drafted nearly a century ago, the ERA finally passed the threshold for certification in 2020 when Virginia became the 38th state to ratify.

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do;
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too.
Imagine all the people
Livin' life in peace.
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one.
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one.
