Please watch this.

The Senate killed a bill to ban state regulation of AI by a vote of 99-1 this spring. Now the industry - eager to stay unregulated - and Trump are scheming to shove the provision in the national defense bill.

You need to know this, so you can help stop it.

Trump keeps believing he’s brilliant while treating everyone else like fools. Ironically, the one who sees himself as an absolute master is often the most gullible. This perfectly illustrates today’s political comedy, where ego far outweighs the nation’s clarity.

If you told someone that Trump called a woman “piggy”, and their first reaction was to ask if she was overweight, this is your sign to cut ties with them.

Never forget: At breakneck speed we are leaving the stable Holocene climate in which human society developed and thrived. Weather extremes are outside historical experience. Sea-level rise is accelerating. Dangerous tipping points are ahead.

Let me make sure that I understand. The man who desperately wants the Nobel Peace Prize is withholding funds for food for children, the disabled and elderly? Perfectly reasonable.

The terrorist Chump wants a nation of cowed and penniless serfs, not homeowners.

There’s no profit in that.

I know it's hard, but do not turn away from this regime's cruelty and violence. Remember it. Document it. Defend against it when you can. Let it influence your voting. And know that this will be needed in defying them now and holding them accountable as soon as we can.

Climate change makes hurricanes moisture-rich and slower-moving, while warming the ocean and raising sea levels. Hurricane Melissa is the perfect example of this pattern. Climate change threatens society as we know it. We cannot continue to ignore this.

He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.

Remove him from office.

Once again the Canadian team, the Toronto Blue Jays, are disrespected as an underdog against the Dodgers in the World Series. Our secret weapon reflects the essence of our national pride; social cohesion, sacrifice, humility and confidence.
Everyone contributes. Go Jays! 🍁

Trump is destroying American Democracy the same way he destroyed the East Wing of the White House.

He has brought a wrecking ball to our politics and is currently overwhelming our resistance.

We all need to step up. The next steps appears to be:

Strikes
Boycotts
Daily Protests
