1/Last August, there was reporting on a conversation Russell Vought, co-author of Project 2025 who was confirmed just by the Senate over the objection of every Dem & Independent to head OMB (sort of like the HR office for the feds), had with people he thought were donors. But they were journalists.

Donold backed down on tariffs, claimed victory and took credit for things that Biden had already negotiated.

But Canadians will never forget this. He has made a critical error.

Trump gutted the Aviation Safety Cmte!
Trump ousted the FAA admin!
The FAA admin was fired because Elon wanted him out!
One air traffic controller was doing the job of 2 people during the crash!
Trump ordered a hiring freeze!
Trump is supposed to be in charge-- why won't he accept responsibility?

Da fuq?
Fuck this. This is the government of a despot.

Despite gutting aviation safety resources in his 1st week, Trump just signed an Executive Order to blame Biden and diversity for aviation safety risks.

PSA: If you get a call from your bank (not credit card) that your debit card has been compromised and to click on a link to verify your identity, hang up and call your bank back. Do NOT provide your info. Fraudsters are getting quite good at spoofing bank phone numbers, talking points, etc. 1/2

Broligarchy. An important word to understand, and this 👇 explains it.

Broligarchs against democracy: my essay in @theatlantic.bsky.social, based on my new book, "Offshore: Stealth Wealth & the New Colonialism" (shorturl.at/rTacl).

They're high-tech's opponents of democracy & their motto is: "Liberty, oligarchy & fraternity."

Again, this is why Trump and his inner circle are so hellbent in making Ukraine sign a land cessation agreement. It's a resource grab.
The primary goal of Russia's invasion of Ukraine is to steal their resources and meet its broader strategy of market monopolization and price manipulation. Ukraine holds over 110 billion tons of proven mineral reserves across 100+ resource types. It is valued between $15 - $26 trillion. #opcanary 🧵

Instead of the pardon nonsense, the legacy media should be covering the North Carolina Supreme Court recount where the Republican candidate is seeking to disqualify more than 60,000 lawful ballots and to disenfranchise entirely certain dependents of overseas and military voters.

Yes! Another win in CA! Don't ever think your one vote doesn't matter.
IT'S OFFICIAL

Democrat Adam Gray has FLIPPED CA-13 from red to blue, winning by just 187 votes. The House of Representatives will be 217 R - 215 D due to Trump plucking congresspeople for his cabinet. That composition will ultimately land at 220 R - 215 D (could be even lower).

Surely everyone outraged by the idea of a Hunter Biden pardon was just as furious when Trump pardoned Roger Stone, Steve Bannon, Paul Manafort, and Charles Kushner—a white-collar criminal whose only qualification was being family. Consistency matters, right?

All evidence indicates the Trump Admin will be a kleptocracy. Trump’s transition is taking secret money and Trump’s picks signal he’ll green-light billions in new subsidies to Musk.

Trump will be focused on enriching himself and his cronies, not everyday Americans.

Dems need to message that 👆🏾

The first thing Dems have to do is meet voters where they’re at. They can’t rely on mainstream media alone to provide voters with facts - a lot of media is paywalled, and voters would rather listen to the ‘vibes’ on podcasts/social media.

Messaging needs to be completely overhauled and dumbed down.

People are still going to die because of abortion bans.
Republicans just don't want you to hear about it.

Absolutely. It's part of what caused us to lose in 2016 and 2024. And we see this example again in recent discussions on block lists owned by supposedly leftists who characterize some Dems, left-leaning orgs, and allies as "Blue Anon." 🙄
...but if hostility to the party so far outweighs any support for it, then you can't really be surprised when we lose.

Republicans rightly recognize that our elections are a binary choice. Democrats too often do not. So long as that asymmetry exists in our media, the right will continue to win.

If you're a progressive, you should know this 👇
Alert: The guy who runs the largest anti-progressive blocklist—the one seeking to eliminate from Bluesky anyone who wrote on the Trump-Russia scandal—speaks Russian and uses the Russian imperialist spelling (Kharkov) of the city he studied in (Kharkiv) on his LinkedIn. Be wary of @numb.comfortab.ly.

Just so we’re clear -
Any party telling you who you can love, what gender you are, which medicine you can take, which books you can read, which history you can learn, what prayers you should pray and what you can and cannot do with your own body, doesn’t give a fuck about freedom.
