High level criminals dismantling departments and now heading toward the Dept of Education today. How in the hell do we put an end to this? Sen. John Kennedy (R LA) said in an interview, "If you're upset by this, call someone who cares."

Hey folks! Look who's here! Monica Tranel ran against Ryan Zinke (Trump's interior secretary who had to resign for corruption) for a Montana House seat. Seems like she's looking toward the information sector-- help her out if you can. (She's really cool.)
Appreciate any insights into how to reach low information readers. Anyone working on combining written form with radio for news deserts like Montana? Would love to hear about efforts to build networks and reach people! @monicatranel.bsky.social

it's because bank deposits are insured by FDIC.

i don't know what FDIC ever did to these people, but apparently it too is now on their blow-it-up list:

After announcing 25% tariffs on US imports, Petro says "We have never refused to take migrants and we have made efforts to stop migration. ... But do not demand that I accept deportees from the US handcuffed and arriving on military flights. We are not anyone's colony."

The easy offramps seem gone.

This. This is what overthrew the elite enslavers in the 1859s and the robber barons in the 1890s. We need these new papers everywhere.

"Blinken told members of the department, [...] he was returning “to the highest calling in a democracy, that of being a private citizen.”"

Ok, that got me! I am an out and proud private citizen in this, our democracy, anybody with me?

✅ NEW by me:

Apple and Costco are not alone in taking a strong stand on diversity, equity & inclusion (DEI). The list of corporate giants pushing back on the 'anti-woke' #DEI backlash is growing in 2025.
