On one of the coldest days of the winter (feels-like temp of -25) Minnesotans turned out at our capitol in much bigger crowds. Very well organized (sound system, information station, hand warmers to share, snacks and water) with organizers, citizens, and legislators speaking.

Musk has citizenship in 3 countries. Surely if he's dedicated to the best interest of the US, he'll renounce those others. How can someone with divided loyalties be involved in decisions in our government?

It must be confusing for his assistant, Trump, when President Musk changes his mind on things like tariffs.

Evil dies. Sometimes it takes a desperately long time. But those monsters eventually come to an end.
Some people will work to hasten that end. Others of us prepare ourselves and those younger than us to recognize evil for what it is and to rebuild better when that end finally arrives.

So let us get this straight: Increasing the minimum wage is socialism, but corporations keeping wages low by forcing workers on to public assistance is the free market?

Another random bit of advice to new BlueSky folks: things work differently here; likes are not up-votes. (Of course liking posts is great for poster morale.) Reposting them is better if your goal is to get engagement going with them. Replying to posts that you like is also good engagement.
