A quote I came across years ago (attributed to anonymous) that has stuck with me:

"The time it takes to rectify a situation is inversely proportional to the time it takes to do the damage."

Seems we're rolling towards a proof.
It’s easy to discount the experience of someone else if you can’t imagine it based on your own experience.

We need more humanity amongst humanity, especially those in leadership and other influential roles.

Everyone seems allergic to the word, but Charlie Kirk was not an activist, he was a propagandist. Turning Point was a meme factory backed by a billionaire designed to steer kids towards Christian Nationalism. He didn’t advocate for policy; he spun narratives to change beliefs. Propaganda.

These two things cannot both be true:

1: throwing a sandwich at a federal officer is a violent assault worthy of prosecution.

2: raiding the Capitol grounds, assaulting police offices & vandalizing federal property in an effort to interfere with an election is a harmless protest worthy of pardons.

They savaged Obama for asking for "fancy mustard" at a restaurant once, while Trump covered the Oval Office in tacky gold shit, bulldozed the Rose Garden so he can pretend he's at his shitty golf club, and vowed to tear down the East Wing to put up a $200,000,000 ballroom.

They've been effective at staging (stooging?) foxes to guard the henhouses, apparently.
If the line prosecutor was fired, and there were no FBI agents in the interview, and the only people there were Blanche and Maxwell, WHO is your source and WHY do you consider it credible?

Given that presenting legitimate sources out of context has been shown to be a prevalent and effective misinformation tactic, it is critical that news editors stop undermining their science writers by using clickbait headlines that strip articles of much needed nuance and context.

Every story on Trump and gov’t stats should reference his felony conviction for falsifying business records. Seems relevant.

Great reporting by Popular Information. This kind of maliciousness from the Administration needs all the attention we can throw at it so more sheeple turn into aware (and thinking) humans.

These asshats aren't interested in govt efficiency. They're corruption whores driven by greed.
1. On February 24, Extremity Care LLC, a company that sells very expensive bandages made from placentas, donated $5 MILLION TO TRUMP'S SUPER PAC

Days later, Trump froze a pending rule that would BAR MEDICARE FROM COVERING EXTREMITY CARE'S PRODUCTS, which are overpriced & not backed by science.
Days after $5 million donation to MAGA Inc., Trump freezes Medicare waste crackdown
Trump pledged to root out "waste, fraud and abuse." Then a big contribution to his Super PAC came in.

"An electorate that has lost the capacity for long-form thought will be more tribal, less rational, largely uninterested in facts or even matters of historical record, moved more by vibes than cogent argument and open to fantastical ideas and bizarre conspiracy theories."

I have no words. Everyone prepared for the constitutional crisis of the President defying the SCOTUS. The crisis is the SCOTUS being fully aligned with Trump’s vision of presidential power. So here we are.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court allows the Trump administration to move forward with the abolition of the Department of Education. It gives no explanation for its order. All three liberals dissent. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Reminder that we consumers have a choice of where we spend our money. No need to support the malicious incompetence of the current administration and their enablers.
The Heritage Foundation sees “Christian heritage of the US as being essential and something that needs to be brought to the fore.” And “when they take on DEI programs,” those initiatives are coming from this vision.

More fake ICE agents doing horrible things.

Everyone should be speaking up about this. Masks and no ID required is a ridiculous recipe for horrors. @MarshaBlackburn & @SenJohnson & Sexton should be banning it, not protecting it.

For some numbers : undocumented people account for 10% of the construction labor force and Trump's deportations could result in a loss of roughly 720,000 construction workers at a time when the industry is short about 275,000 workers
Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

We need to stop fucking around. If you see or even think you might see any of this shit going down, call 911 and report a kidnapping in progress bc until they prove the two things I mentioned above, that’s exactly what it is, a violent felony.

I appreciate the explanation (I wish it had come sooner) but the simple fact remains: the question was asked of you “did Trump commit impeachable offenses?” and you said “no.” Two days after you posted that he had. Those are just facts, and it’s how history will look back upon this episode.

Because the first question shifts the blame to the desperate, making their morality the focus, while the second question demands accountability from the powerful. It's easier to question survival than to challenge greed.

3 years ago today SCOTUS overturned Roe. They took away a right that gave women autonomy and spared millions of children from being born into trauma, neglect, or systems that fail them.

This was never about protecting life. It was about power.

I stand in solidarity with all women. ✊
