He, him. Retired paralegal. That was my last field of endeavors but I've farmed and machined, and driven, for pay and adventure. I'm interested in how things fit together. What a wonderful world !

Time to reimagine public office guidelines for out-of-control politicians. Term limits, no more than 2 terms for U.S. presidents, & all legislators. Government funded election campaigns, no more unregulated PACS… Maximum age limit of 68-70 years old to run for office. No stock trading. A start…

Dear journalists. When the US President is openly accused of paedophilia the story is either impeachment or defamation. If not, the story is how words have lost all meaning, truth has lost all value, and journalists are now completely desensitised to lying and corruption.

The most American thing is that detained immigrants who aren’t (allegedly) allowed to work in the US, are actually paid mere dollars a day to do the work - cooking and cleaning - inside of for-profit detention centers.

The way to message through all of this is "We can have a better world where we're not all affected by rich, pissy men who can't handle their shit." That's all. Leave the memes behind, the lame attempts at going viral, and just say, we can have all of these things and be free of this bullshit.

THIS from Zoe Williams interview with Bernie Sanders published in The Guardian on 6-4-2025

Police brutality and misuse of force continue to be a threat to public safety. That’s why I reintroduced a bold package of bills to hold officers accountable for misuse of force, protect protesters, and end the culture of impunity in policing. omar.house.gov/media/press-...

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?

Democratic politicians are embracing the Taco horseshit because it doesn’t cost them anything and they’re desperate to change the subject from their absolute refusal to actually fight or risk anything. After all these years I’m begging people to just see these things for what they are.

“That’s the life I want everybody to be able to live and I think we can deliver that."

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil. It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men

It’s not “extremist” to want EVERYONE to have Medicare Not “radical” to want EVERYONE to have bodily autonomy Not “leftist” to want EVERYONE to have housing Not “socialist” to want money OUT of politics Not “antisemitic” to be against the Israeli lobby Not “blue MAGA” to criticize the Dems GROW UP

🤡🤡🤡 So basically the only fraud, abuse, and waste was from Musk. 🚨 Join is on in the streets on June 14 - go to NoKings.org to find or host a protest. *Graphic spotted on @other98 IG, OP @braddroflit.bsky.social* #50501Movement #PeoplesMovement #FiftyFiftyOne #June14 #ImpeachTrump

@sandra-comstock.bsky.social Saw yr paragraphs on Kleins Abundance at Facebook.

🚨 We're endorsing Troy Jackson for Maine Governor! Not your typical politician—Troy's been a logger, union leader, and President of the Maine Senate. He’s delivered results on health care, drug prices, paid leave, worker protections and climate jobs. That’s why Bernie's is backing him, too.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

I think the feckless ineptitude of our federally elected representatives, past and present, might be explained by a hidden knowledge. What do they know that has them withholding support to the masses ? Something that supports an understated idea or power sector.

I hope legacy media covers the connection between last night's memecoin dinner and this morning's social media tariff threats. He's manipulating the stock market.

Chickens do go home to roost. You sleep in the bed you make. etc.

Fascism sets in EXACTLY like this. Days go by. Nothing improves. The people wait with bated breath for SOMETHING or SOMEONE to help. Court orders, but no enforcement. Time passes. We become desensitized. Life goes on. Rights are chipped away. Life goes on. People die. Life goes on.

It's amazing how all the animals join in the fun and do exactly what the child wants—like a real-life fairy tale! 🌟

Still a good idea !

Barack, this is your assignment... todays problems are the result of yesterdays unsolved problems. maybe instead of sole focus on todays crises we can discuss today in light of past unsolved issues Primarily citizen equity and money in politics How do we effect change ?

That's Exactly What He Did And It Was All Illegal!!

if dems want messaging help, stop telling people you're "fighting back." it sounds like you're being mugged. call off the podcaster search, take your ridiculous money pile and try opening some food banks and free clinics. hurricanes are coming and the feds have no plan. looks like an opening to me.

Overdue.

Amen.
