Social media interaction is interesting. Someone just called me out, somewhat spitefully for a reply of mine, that wasn't correct. I told the person to calm down, and got called sexist, and blocked. Can't win sometimes. 🤷🏻‍♂️

What. Is. This. Garbage.

Absolutely this! 👇👇👇

🚨‼️🚨‼️ Europe: get X and Starlink out of your countries. Prohibit Musk from your soil. He and Trump are working with Russia to destabilize your Democracy.

It all makes sense once you realize a recession is actually a good thing for the 1%.

The President of the United States is vowing to disappear students from college campuses who say things the government doesn't like. There are not enough alarms for this.

NEW: Five of the billionaires who attended Donald Trump's inauguration have lost a combined $210 billion in wealth since then, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index

New euphemism new dropped via Treasury Secretary Bessent: "Could we be seeing this economy that we inherited starting to roll a bit? Sure ... there's gonna be a detox period."

America does not need a ‘resistance,’ or stale slogans, or people putting those slogans on little paddles. It needs an opposition party that boldly defends the nation’s virtues, the rule of law, and the rights of its people. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

This yahoo needs to be talked about more too! en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtis_...

This lays out the path we are on, and it seems noone is talking about it.

I am admittedly not well informed, partially by design for my own sanity, and due to schedule. I have heard rumblings of this guys influence on the current administration, and hangers on. Just reading his Wiki page is enough cause for alarm for me. Ugh!!! en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtis_...

I had to take a break here for a few days for my own good. Question: what will it take before people wake up to what is happening? I'm in a heavily maga area, and it's disappointing as hell.

Hold his boots to the fire!!

Love me some Jasmine!

Anyone who happened to know that the White House would announce and then suspend tariffs within 24 hours just made a boatload of money.

🚨BREAKING: Alliance for Retired Americans and two labor unions file lawsuit against Treasury Dept. to block disclosure of personal and financial information to Musk and DOGE. Follow @democracydocket.com for details on this and every pro-democracy lawsuit. www.democracydocket.com

Master negotiator.

Elon Musk's mother moved to South Africa in the year Apartheid was created, and she and Elon left the year it ended. The last Apartheid Prime Minister, a man who refused to testify at the Truth and Reconciliation Committee, was a family friend who stayed at their home. This is not a crazy theory.

This might end up being Trump’s most historic mistake: Foreign aid is not just charity—it’s an investment in stability, diplomacy, and American interests and it saves American lives too.

The Kremlin continues to praise Musk for the job he is doing.

Absolutely this!!

I'd like to know if there are any resisters in N Ohio on here. Sometimes I feel like I am speaking into the void here, but I'd like to connect. I am considering getting off all meta apps, but would like to stay connected locally if anyone is interested.
