Not big on posting to SM, but my desire to rebel against the corporate billionaires has convinced me to try it a little more here.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.
I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.
Remind you of anyone?

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.

In my world, “the talk” is what Black parents have w/our kids, about how to survive an encounter w/police who see them as a threat because of our skin color.
Latino families have their talk, w/kids even younger, about ICE who see them as criminals: “If we disappear…”
Different fear. Same America.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

Hey Democrats in Congress: You know what Trump would've done if this had happened four weeks ago.
DO IT.
Ask questions. DEMAND ANSWERS.
And remind the old "Truth-teller" that HE'S the Commander-in-Chief now—it's on HIM to explain what happened and how he'll fix it!

The head of the FAA had imposed fines on Musk and SpaceX for violating air safety regulations. Musk forced the FAA head to resign because he “over-regulated” air safety requirements. At the time of the Potomac plane crash Trump had not replaced the FAA Administrator.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
Auschwitz took time.
