Writing some truths so we don't forget in the barrage of misinformation: ✅Gulf of Mexico ✅Putin = expansionist dictator ✅Fox News = propaganda ✅DEI = civil rights ✅Vaccines & SSRIs save lives ✅Democracy is worth it
I don't even feel like being satirically patriotic this 4th of July 😒 What's to celebrate? Woo, an impending (economic) Depression?

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative.
A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

If we are going to get our country back, we need to keep this in mind. We don’t have the luxury of not engaging w/ or accepting help from imperfect allies. If they want in on this fight, let’s welcome them! The other 9 lessons are important, too. If we are mindful of this ⬇ we will be stronger.

Calling Trump and admin incompetent at this point is dangerous. We were too quick to dismiss them the first time around, and now it's all much, much worse.

I cannot overstate the importance of reading books, particularly novels by respected authors, for critical thinking skills and reading comprehension. If the big gun novelists don't interest you, start small and work your way up. Or read whatever interests you. Just read. Or listen. It's all books.

Our economy is far larger than it was decades ago.
Where have most of the gains gone? To the top.
Any path forward must include a fight to restructure the economy toward more widely shared prosperity.
This isn’t a blue state vs. red state phenomenon. It’s a class phenomenon.

University of Arizona was one of the earliest to roll over and submit to the DEI ban. Even before universities were even being scrutinized. Not even a whimper. That's how you hand power over to fascists.

When I was in my early teens, solipsism appealed to me. Maybe all teenagers are narcissistic, or maybe bidding social media made us that way. Also in my teens, The Fountainhead struck me as a good book containing solid social concepts.
I grew out of both of those things.

The current iteration of "Republicans" will go down in the history books. I guess that's what they want, even if the chapter won't exactly be glowing...

The administration's response to the Signal debacle is just suffused with contempt for their own voters. Just an endless belief that the people who support them can be tricked into believing the laziest misdirection imaginable.

One thing that can get lost in all this is that Jeff Goldberg knows much, much more about national security than the principals who were on that text chain.

Again, why is the story is that we leaked bombing Yemen for the 500th time in 20 years (not including the illegal cluster munitions we gave the Saudis) to Jeffrey Goldberg and not that we bombed Yemen for the 500th time in 20 years (not including the illegal cluster munitions we gave the Saudis)?

Florida– there are two critically important special elections coming up on April 1st that could bring some sense of balance, some sanity back to Congress. Vote for Gay Valimont (FL-01) & Josh Weil (FL-06). We need these two voices of reason in the US House. We’re one week away. Make a plan to vote.
