We’re close to losing Sesame Street, a show that was started to provide free educational media to marginalized kids in our country.
That’s not an accident in my opinion and it’s just one more example of how Capitalism robs our society of the sweet and good things we build to care for one another.

HBO has declined to renew “Sesame Street” for new episodes. The series that’s been teaching generations of little kids since 1969 now has no studio.
Please consider donating to Sesame Workshop to ensure the residents of 123 Sesame Street are still around to teach kids of all needs and backgrounds.

This is a great post and addresses one of the most important threats of Trump 2.0.
I still put weaponization of DoJ and mass deportation ahead, but just barely so.

New, from me: Trump and his Secretary of Defense are proposing a purge of military officers. To understand what this means, I talked to military experts and looked at Trump's accusations of "woke Generals."
Bottom line: The purge represents a huge democratic risk.🧵

Discussing blanket pardons draws us off of the real issue, the concern that Trump will pervert the criminal justice system & use DOJ as a political tool, which is forcing the Biden administration into these considerations. Don't forget why we're here.

"We have to let go of the notion that “mainstream media” is a category reserved only for journalists guided by a professional code of ethics, a mission of public service, and an aspiration toward objectivity or at least fairness."

The ‘Mainstream Media’ Has Already Lost
The newspapers and networks of the 20th century are ceding ground. And the people taking their place aren’t playing by the same rules.

Good advice to everyone on BlueSky
You can voice your opinion about Kash Patel without retweeting DT. PLEASE do not turn BlueSky into Twitter/X by continually retweeting him. Let’s not become a garbage dump for Truth Social. Just state your viewpoint without platforming him. Thanks.
