@pcoyote41.bsky.social - my Dad posted this and I’m circulating…..such incredible direction and care. I will be implementing for tomorrow. Thank you!

Soft Taco -

Did POTUS office plant the drug story to discredit, top advisor and biggest donor?

An important piece on the downward spiral when good people stop noticing or caring about what’s happening. @hartmannreport.com

I do believe “someone just woke up”. Yes! Come November, vote the shameless out of office.

BESSENT: We would like to have Apple help us make the semiconductor supply chain more secure. FOX: It takes time to move those production facilities. What's realistic for Apple? BESSENT: I don't know from company to company, so we'll have to see.

Bessent - blink twice if you need help.

Death of journalism? Please don’t leave me @cbsnews.com @60minutes.bsky.social

@governor.ca.gov is it true and confirmed Executive Order diverting migrant funds to building a W. LA homeless shelter by 2028?

Bright side, is that he was watching WLRN which is a PBS member. #Alcatraz reopening.

We can all agree, no matter our politics, that chef José Andrés deserves the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his amazing work with World Central Kitchen in disaster-stricken areas across the U.S. and the world.

Very strong letter should do the trick. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Are we IN the Handmaids Tale?

I think the United States should have a competent Secretary of Defense, one who is capable of running the Pentagon. Sorry to get so partisan, but that’s how I feel.

"I look at war plans every single day" -- Pete Hegseth (we know dude, we've seen your Signal chats)

“.. Notably, this announcement was not made by Trump himself .. but was instead posted to the US Customs and Border Protection Website, suggesting the president isn’t keen to advertise what amounts to his second major tariff retreat in just a few days.” - Vital Knowledge

The only part of this that was correct was the 3-day timeframe

Welcome !

We’re celebrating Liberation & Urination Day! An all-new The Weekly Show drops tomorrow with author Michael Lewis.

I asked Janet Yellen once whether Trump understands economic policy. “No” Thought that might be relevant for whatever he’s saying now about tariffs. (Which, I’ll again remind you, end in FFS)

This is such a great point. It’s not atypical! But you usually have someone who can reliably clarify in near real time. Usually.

Most astonishing US security breach in my lifetime. And the *stupidest.* The endless question: In the struggle between malevolence and incompetence on Team Trump, which will prevail? Recently malevolence has been in the team. But Team Stupidity can't be counted out.

“Techno billionaires have a dystopian vision for what work and relevance means.” Jon Stewart, @adamtooze.bsky.social & @sohrabahmari.bsky.social discusses Trump and Musk’s attacks on America’s social democracy. #TheWeeklyShow

For real though. If your library has it, there's a lot of really cool shit on Kanopy and imo it's far superior to Netflix

The institutions of this economy depend on the institutions of this democracy.

Pssst - The budget's not gonna be balanced...

Jon Stewart and @nickgillespie.bsky.social discuss the possibility that DEI may be a way to enhance economic growth, as well as opportunity. #TheWeeklyShow #politics

So, it appears that this is going to go the distance, and congressional and senatorial stops, will not be heard, enforced-because of threats of retaliation….so it’s up to the “people”. Ok. People, we have an assignment. Let’s go!

First post 2/23/25….. the best outcome from Nov. 2025, is that I’m now politically activated.
