Did you know 70% of married women change their last name? Well, the SAVE Act just made that a HUGE problem. 💍➡️🚫 Imagine needing to drop $165 on a passport *just to vote*—money that could go to groceries, rent, or diapers. This isn’t about ‘security,’ y’all… it’s a modern-day POLL TAX.

And sharp as tacks.
Two-thirds of House Republicans and more than a third of those in the Senate have only been on Capitol Hill since Trump won in 2016. They are also more ideologically extreme. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

If you’re cheering for the biggest cuts to Medicaid in American history, your momma didn’t raise you right.

And, better hope she’s not in a nursing home or disabled.

I predict that within six months we will see an economic tailspin that makes COVID look like a picnic.

"Elon Musk, when he bought Twitter, significantly changed how content was weighted in the feed...So what's the alternative? It's to move to platforms where you have better control over your own feed. Right now, Bluesky is really the one doing that."

16 days ago I was an employed federal worker.

Yesterday I was fired by a drug addicted South African King, appointed by the guy who the new King kept out of prison by stealing the election for him and is now blackmailing said guy.

No, I am not better.
Are you better off today than you were 16 days ago? No, you are not. Don’t try to gaslight me.

It's heartening that today the leaders of the two major parties in Germany are unequivocally anti-Nazi and anti-fascist.

It's horrifying that today the president and vice-president of the United States of America are not.

16 free states in the 1850s—states that drew a line against slavery while the country teetered on the edge. Back then, the fight was against enslavers, and the Republican Party led the charge.

Now—that same party defends oppression, bans diversity and history that makes them feel uncomfortable.

The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

Mike freaking Pence. Interesting.
Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

Don't let Trump flood your zone. Stay focused. Keep your eye on what this corrupt regime is really doing — looting the government to line their own pockets with massive tax cuts and the ability to steer more federal contracts their way.

The irony in what I’m about to say…
Real life right now with AI and its potential use in the future is more terrifying to me than anything AI could possibly create.
It’s the human element…how those in power and those who potentially control our information choose to use it that scares me the most.
In case the gutting of all health-related govt agencies weren’t enough.

In case health insurance companies automating claim rejections using AI weren’t enough.

A new law allows AI to replace *your doctor*

What is considered “conservative” these days is pretty elastic, which is exactly the opposite of how conservatism has always been defined. Conservatism in the Trump era is not based on a set of principles, ideas or policies. It is a dead movement replaced by right-wing populism.

Yes, making Trump unimportant means making America unimportant to the world.

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million.

How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65

Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

Good afternoon Justin 👑🫂 Here's the thing, ASSMANGO is not a king.. Why The AF do politicians, MSM poise the position that he's doing anything LEGAL as President. Frame his executive orders in the proper light like THAT'S ILLEGAL and explain to the people why it's not! I'm sick of MSM parakeets.

The MAGA agenda relies on fear and chaos. So when Kendrick Lamar uses a platform as big as the Super Bowl halftime show to say no, we are not afraid, that, in fact, we are a collective moving with a common purpose, it’s a direct hit to what MAGA needs to survive.
