It's official. I deactivated my account on Elon's hellscape today. The atmosphere here is definitely more welcoming. Hope to eventually reconnect with all my followers. Welcome to my new followers. You'll find I'm rather quiet and introspective. More reposting than posting.

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

Trump never had a fan base.
He had an army of bots who sold his racism and misogyny and xenophobia to uneducated Americans who took voting advice from bald eagle profiles posting Tweets from Eastern Europe.
It’s as stupid as it sounds.

Stunning development: Senators now confirm the Trump admin’s 28-point “peace plan” for Ukraine wasn’t a U.S. plan at all. It was a Russian wish list. Follow along. This is crazy. 1/

It's no coincidence that the Department of Education removing many majors as being 'professional degrees' mostly affect fields dominated by women. Take another look at Project 2025. Women not getting federal funding for these degrees forces them out of the workforce - which is their ultimate aim.

When are folks going to learn that nothing will ever shake some peoples’ support for this man? Like, stop asking what the breaking point is—there isn’t one.
Not 34 felonies, 40,000 lies, an attempted coup, a jury finding him liable for sex abuse-nothing.
Because to admit any of it means 1/2

Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

Someday there will be a reckoning for the serial killings that the US government is engaged in on the oceans. Another admin should not refuse to extradite indicted officials to Intl Criminal Courts and senior military officers “just following orders” should not be exempted.
