Today is election day in Kansas. We voted by mail-in ballot. It's not the nationals by any means, but we're determined to vote in every election and fix this mess as best we can.

Seems there are two levels of security at the top. That may be why I was thinking he didn't have clearance. He does/but he doesn't. MSNBC explained it a bit. Still, he is going to the meetings that he doesn't have clearance for.
Screenshot from MSNBC: Around that time, the Air Force denied Mr. Mush a high-level security access - the so-called Special Access Program status, which is reserved for extremely sensitive classified programs - four people with knowledge of the rejection said... SpaceX executives assured the Defense Department that they kept Mr. Musk out of the most sensitive classified discussions, the official said. Yet Pentagon officials remain concerned that Mr. Musk has joined some meetings where such matters were discussed, even without the special clearance, the official said.

But maybe - and I'm just spitballing here - if Amazon and other companies paid their fair share in taxes, we could lift all kids - if not into space - at least out of poverty. - Rep. Adam Schiff

Scroll down until you get to this video if you want a quick, easy to understand, explanation of why the oral vaccine is no longer legal to use. Keep in mind, it wasn't illegal when the video was made though.

It lost the original post.
Text: Elon Musk, whose net worth is over $500 billion, met with US Senators, whose average net worth is $2.3 million and who make $15,000 a month with fully paid health benefits, to discuss cutting social security benefits to people who get an average of $1,700 per month. Let that sink in. Image: Elon Musk looking evil

Final snippet but the article continues. (Link is in first part of thread.) 3/3
Text: This reflects his belief that the ultrarich should not exist in a society with such extreme economic inequality. On his official Facebook page in September 2024, Sanders doubled down, saying, "We live in a nation today that has more income and wealth inequality than has ever existed in the history of the United States." He pained a stark picture of the divide, stating that while the billionaire class is "doing phenomenally well," 60% of Americans are "living paycheck to paycheck."

The article is longer than what I have in my post but you can read it for yourself. 2/3
Text: According to a Fortune article, Wallace asked, "Are you basically saying that once you get to $999 million, the government should confiscate all the rest?" Sanders responded with a direct "yeah."

When people try to tell me that Bernie Sanders is in league with the right-wing, I know they haven't read or heard him speak. He would never align himself w their policies. This article explains what he has to say about billionaires and why they should NOT exist. 1/3

Image of Bernie Sanders speaking to an audience with one finger pointing up. Text: Bernie Sanders is challenging the wealthiest Americans with his call for a 100% tax on income above $1 billion. In a May 2023 interview on HBO's Who's Talking to Chris Wallace?, Sanders explained his stance. "You may disagree with me but I think people can make it on $999 million. I think that they can survive just fine."

This one always cracks me up. I saw this episode years ago and laughed then. With a little adjusting, it fits w what's happening on twitter.
Scene from British show that's been photoshopped with Musk as the dissatisfied customer with a dead bird (twitter bird overlapping one in scene with the X style that Musk uses for it over the bird's eyes to denote death).

We eradicated smallpox but not polio. Cases are mostly unheard of in the US bc of the vaccine. RFK Jr wants to bring it back from near extinction.
This link is more background info about polio and the US. www.who.int/news-room/sp...
By the mid-20th century, the poliovirus could be found all over the world and killed or paralysed over half a million people EVERY year. With no cure, and epidemics on the rise, there was an urgent need for a vaccine.

This didn't actually seem to address what it says in the headline. It seemed more akin to a dressing down of social media than anything else. It was a wasted read, in my opinion. Maybe their point was to say we missed the point of why he killed him? I don't think any of us missed that. True, 1/3

Found this elsewhere. The headline on the left gave me a laugh. Then I read the one on the right and chortled.

Trump is the once and future parasite on this nation and this world. He's a shit stain that just won't wash out. We flushed him once. Unfortunately, we didn't flush hard enough. He should already be in prison for the rest of his miserable life. So many missed opportunities to put him there.

We kept telling you to stop watching Fox News. We told you to ignore all the right wing PROPAGANA MSM. We told you that Project 2025 was Trump's baby. We told you he was a racist/rapist/lousy businessman. We told you he had 13 (possibly more) failed businesses and 6 bankruptcies.
A year from now when groceries don't cost less and gas doesn't cost less, we're going to remind you all that you traded the lives and dignity of your wives, daughters, sisters, and mothers for the promise of cheaper goods that you're not going to get.
