WATCH: “It was announced as a done deal.”

This @moreperfectunion.bsky.social piece on how Musk’s XAI was forced on MEMPHIS by their own Chamber (Ted Townsend) and the mayor and other leaders, without permits, and is now poisoning their air, is not to be missed.

The U.S. government spent $710 billion in Trump’s first month, an increase from the same period a year prior. Cost-cutting efforts are ineffective, and job losses are occurring without clear justification.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.”

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

It's Tuesday, and I'm on my way back to DC. We've got a big week ahead fighting to get Elon out of Treasury, out of our data, and out of government. I’ll be outside treasury today to say:

No unelected billionaire should have control of the government.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH**

Today, #KashPatel sent a letter to my counsel @markzaidesq.bsky.social threatening to sue & demanding I retract my MSNBC comments on his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This follows his threats against media & political opponents, showing how he might act if confirmed. I stand by my statements.

A little melodramatic, but yes, the trash are predictably starting to slither over from the sewer in desperate search of attention from real people. Remember that block-and-ignore is good civic hygiene. Every reaction, even a hostile one, is a crumb that keeps them around and attracts more.
The Bluesky we knew and loved is truly dead and buried. We're gonna have to figure out what this Newsky is and hopefully shape it into something we can all survive and maybe even enjoy.

She took it back, but when Sec Def Hegseth's own Mom writes him an email in the middle of a "difficult" divorce accusing him of abusing "many" women, how does the Senate confirm him? Do GOP Senators have any character left, or are they just going to bend the knee? www.nytimes.com/2024/11/29/u...

This will mean higher gas prices, higher alcohol prices, higher food prices, higher building prices, higher car prices, higher pharmaceutical prices, etc. Trump is about to teach Americans who *actually* pays for tariffs (the consumers do).

71% of Americans believe the economy is rigged against them. They’re not wrong.

There is not a single state in the US where the minimum wage is equal to the cost of living. There is nowhere in the nation that a single person can support themselves on minimum wage. We cannot accept this as normal.
