After massive public backlash, the Social Security Administration is rolling back its disastrous cuts to phone services.

The 500 richest people in the world added $304B to their combined net worth yesterday after Trump's tariff pause.
Meanwhile, retirees, small businesses, and workers are still reeling from the mess.
Trump's actions feel chaotic until you see who really comes out on top.

Update: The House just passed the Republican voter suppression measure that threatens voting access for millions of Americans, including 69 million women whose married names don't match their birth certificates.
Make sure your senators know you expect them to stand against it.

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married?
Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

You know, all the people who soiled their reputations working for Trump‘s first administration but aren’t working in his second have to be thinking right now, “Man, this buffoon is making us look really good by doing all the crazy shit we kept him from doing last time!”

I’ve always stood on the side of Roe and a woman’s right to make her own health care choices.
It’s absurd to mandate criminalization because of those choices.
Any bill that does so, including the Born-Alive Survivors Protection Act, is a NO from me.

One of the points I made was in reference to “community notes”. Its being pitched as a new form of moderation. But the reality on X is that almost every time, Notes only show up to the people who volunteer to respond.
They aren’t visible to everyone else. So they really don’t have an impact

As a decentralized platform, @bsky.app is probably the last, best chance for this to happen
This has nothing to do with me. I'm just stating the obvious.
It has everything to do with what the 1.2m @bsky.app users do.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.
We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive
