Huge thanks to everyone who’s chipped in to make LBD interventions happen this year. We’re 100% funded by small donations & refuse big donors to protect us from becoming reliant on any individual source. Wanna help? Link in bio👆

Bitcoin recently hit $100,000—a life-changing sum for most people, whether for bills, debt, investing, or retirement. Meanwhile, if Elon Musk spent his entire net worth at this price, he could theoretically buy almost 3.9 million of them.

I missed Mika Brzezinski's very bizarre on air apology for a comment David Frum made on air about Pete Hegseth's drinking. You can watch it in this clip. And it's weird for reasons @joshtpm.bsky.social lays out in this post: talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/whats...

I'm happy to see that this proposed ban failed and am grateful for my colleagues—particularly my republican colleagues—who recognized this as a distraction from the work we were elected to do.

I'm ready to represent my constituents and look forward to working on behalf of the people of Montana.

The average USian mind can't comprehend the concept of stopping a budding military dictatorship at 3:48 am with their barehands and no coffee. That's what South Korea did today.

"Why would you want to study coups? They aren't even relevant anymore." Famous words from a former colleague when I was in my Master's program.

More reports on the GD's OMON brutality and torture. According to a lawyer, after heavily beating a detained man, they forced him to open his mouth and they spit into his mouth one by one. #GeorgiaProtests

Governments often scapegoat social issues to distract from the real culprit: the economic system they refuse to address.

Amazon workers have started a strike from Black Friday to Cyber Monday, protesting in 20 countries including the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Japan, and India.

They are asking for increased wages, better working conditions, and the ability to unionize.

Good for them!

Ask yourself whether your government has taken steps to reduce inequality or increase it. Ignore what they say; look at the data! #joinaunion

Let's be clear. If faced between the choice of growing inequality or democracy, billionaires and their government stooges will always choose the former. #joinaunion

#WolffBites: What do we actually celebrate? That settler colonists once shared a meal with indigenous people? Or that the colonists proceeded to exterminate the indigenous people? What slogan fits best: "America first" or "never again"?

Unions gave us weekends, 8-hour workdays, and safer workplaces. The fight continues, after years of growing inequality which threatens to roll back all we've worked hard for! #joinaunion
