I came here looking for this comment. She stood up, too, in a time when men were in charge. Publishing the "Pentagon Papers" was an act of bravery. I believe women will lead us.
I do subscribe to The Atlantic. Only Magazine we get. Dropped AARP...they are doing nothing for us. I dont' see them in court, I don't see them in the News. All they do is tell "us" to call for them...how about they get their assess of the floor and go to Washington and fight for us.
However much they fit the pattern of advocacy group run by sociopaths in suits managing a revenue stream, getting their membership engaged and active is good.
Feels like leadership of anything and everything need to pull their heads out, and they're going to need mass encouragement to see this.
I love anyone who doesn't kowtow to that orange turd in the Shite House. Black, white (anything but orange), male, female or other, young, old, nothing matters to me except being a beacon of light in this horrendous darkness.
Show 'em, girl.
Read this Atlantic article from 2018 called "The Cruelty is the Point". It will explain the pathetic mindset of these Trump cultists. (and make no mistake, it is a cult).
Bravo! I'm sure if Steve Jobs were still here, he'd be railing against this corrupt admin right alongside his wife. Unlike the other Tech bros who have bent the knee Steve Jobs was a true visionary and not a f**k-boy-wannabe like Zuckerberg/Musk/Bezos.
I do appreciate that the Atlantic still prints the truth. OTOH, she has invested heavily in the new (once secretive) oligarch-backed city (think Andreessen) in Solano Co. With all the talk of oligarchs wanting to build city-states within states it makes me a little skeptical of her.
Remember, humans are electrical and are thus beholden to the laws of electrical engineering. I.E. if you want equality, you actually want to stabilize numbers at a very specific spot, anyone writing code for a thermostat can tell you that your method doesn't work. You're advocating for bang-bang.
RFK Jrs brain worm may be balanced by parthenogenisis & he was colonized. Critters come in more than just M/F; humans, a fickle species long journeying towards balancing their M/F aspects & societies. Patriarchal societies ruled by testosterone are self-destructive, needs female balance for survival
Women have been responsible for the civilization of man ever since Eve presented Adam with fruit from the Tree of Knowledge. Isn’t this allegorical, after all, symbolic of the human realization that we are different from the other animals?
I do believe that there was a great opportunity to ensure women were the leaders into the future however 78 million people didn’t think a black woman was fit for the job,
Men wipe out their own gender throughout history till present over & over… bad men wiping out societies over Greed & Power… their reign must end. Women are this Worlds nurturers. We are intelligent & fair …. Logical & forward thinkers… Please support women in your communities & your countries
She inherited about 9 billion from her late husband. That 9 billion has grown to nearly 15 billion.
She is probably more pure of heart than most billionaires.
This totally self serving. Wally World makes their fortune off the backs of the working class selling massively marked up crap made in China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Etc by "slave" labor. Tariffs have begun hitting their bottom line. Less spending
I keep saying this. There are ZERO “good” billionaires. Let’s stop putting them on a pedestal. They exploited people to get that kind of wealth. Shame on all of them.
'The future is female' is just another idiotic idiom that promotes a zero-sum tribalistic us-vs-them mindset, that will solve no problems and just create more.
Solving the future will be a team effort.
'The future is female' is as valid as 'criminals, idiots, women, and children'.
My unpopular opinion is HuffPo is the way to go. Owned by BuzzFeed, a publically traded company and hence, way harder to take over with some bog ass. But also DT choose it as the token lib org in the white house expecting them to be underfunded and therefore feckless and impotent
There is something about people that come from incredible wealth that distorts their way of thinking that helps them believe they earned what they have and it is fine that they have it.
Imagine the cognitive dissonance required to believe that your philanthropy is enough to counteract the very
I agree. It’s so crazy. It’s not even just the top 1%. I’d say it’s the top 20%. We need a huge culture change. I’d like to see a salary cap on people running for office. You can’t make more than 3x the an average income to run. Wouldn’t that be great!
Nobody blamed her for losing. The blame went to non voters. She wanted to be president but bc she didn’t win the first time, she just gives up?Trump didn’t give up after he lost & look what happened.Her voice is more important than ever to help lead the fight.It’s not about blacks working for free.
I don't think there's much she can do right now - not openly, anyway. Anything she did stand up for, comment on would be met with derision & shouts of 'loser' by the current administration & Republicans generally. It's not as if there's much of a centrist media who'd give her views a fair hearing.
She fought very hard. More than any career republican after 4 years and 3 long and grueling months during her presidential campaign. Then the people ‘supposedly’ said fuck off. So give her a break will ya.
It appears so. She aiming lower to state and local offices. It appears America, especially white men, aren’t smart enough to vote for an intelligent competent woman (or woman of color). Same on the US
If she hadn't spread dehumanising propaganda in support of a live streamed genocide that she promised to continue 70% funding from US taxes and if she hadn't called a key demographic in swing states rapists in her Presidential Debate - and if Biden hadn't doubled homelessness, expanded ICE and so on
Bullshit.she is part of that group buying all that farmland outside Vacaville ca. Pays to read some print media from ca. She is part of that cabill of rich people. She is part of it
The Orange Nazi is terrified by strong smart women like her who stand up and fight back. With their enormous treasure chest, I’m hoping for ex-wives of billionaires to unite in helping federal employees fight and get their jobs back with full back pays

Indigenous people know how important it is to have women in decision making. Women think about the impact generations from now.
I hope she has a strong circle.

Ladies, if anything is going to get done right- it’s gonna be us leading the charge!💕✌️
👏👏🙋♂️

Regardless, it still stands.
BILLIONAIRES SHOULD NOT EXIST!
Stand Strong
🦾🦾🦾

And billionaire women who don't pay their fair share?...no thanks.
Please re-think your slogan.
Solving the future will be a team effort.

Bravo & Thank You!
dropped my WAPO subscription lat year and subscribed to the Atlantic instead. They have some great articles!
The existence of billionaires, and extreme wealth in general has lead to all of this.
Yes its nice that she is standing up, but her existence is a policy failure.
Imagine the cognitive dissonance required to believe that your philanthropy is enough to counteract the very
How can you live this way knowing children starve so you can fly on a private jet
If the wealthy no longer pay pensions and then wreck 401ks gambling on the stock market they need to take care of the people they exploited.
We have two rightwing pro wealthy parties though.
Media does the horse race thing to make money. Basically lying constantly by omission or false equivalence
Failsons of politicians become consultants telling us Liz Cheney is a person to ally with.
Then they blame the left...that never has a say...
So she’s doing what America wanted her to do - minding her own business
She so uppity
