Trump hopes Americans don’t realize what the CFPB does. So I wrote this piece on why CFPB exists, the billions it has saved us, & why dismantling it devastates working people. This is class warfare & we cannot afford to lose. No paywall. Please read & share: www.qasimrashid.com/p/cfpb-is-su...

The FBI’s core values, including integrity, compassion, fairness, and allegiance to the Constitution - and oh, yeah, diversity, are being painted over at the FBI Academy. Source: NYT.

The Democrats are not here to save us. Either they need to become a party for the people or we need a new one.

Check out Mutual Aid & the LA Fires from It Could Happen Here on Amazon Music. music.amazon.com/podcasts/a27... I always recommend this podcast, but this episode does a great job showing how our government isn't here to help us.

I'm sure he won't use the political party he just bought to get water and leave local communities vulnerable to fire.

Now is a good time to get into preparedness, wherever you are. Being individually prepared is a good way to be in a better position to help others. Your basic goal, to start, is to be ready for three days in your home without power or water and to be able to leave quickly if need be.

A second Trump term is looking worse. Just hoping we actually get a next election.

Trust that it pains me to use CNN to put out a WaPo story but here we are. WaPo lays off roughly 100 staffers as star journalists, and a Pulitzer Prize winning editorial cartoonist, exit. Subscriptions continue to plummet. Good. www.cnn.com/2025/01/07/m...

Respect to @anntelnaes.bsky.social for quitting the Washington Post due to censorship over her on-point cartoon. More of this from artists and writers, please. Don't obey in advance, especially to the broligarchy.

Remember when Trump was bragging about the COVID vaccine and his supporters got so enraged that he backtracked? I think immigration may be another issue like that. Usually I expect the MAGA drones to follow whatever he says, but do you think he can actually sway them from White Supremacy?

There could be legitimate uses for this technology, instead it is being used by greedy scammers to steal other people's work and create products no one wants.

And the Democrats are all shocked we didn't reelect them. They could have actually done things to keep women/birthing people safe, but they would rather hold it over our heads.

The key takeaway is that the world’s richest man got what he wanted; stripped our cancer funding for kids, killed reforms to bring down drugs prices and caps on investment in China. Trump on the other hand demanded a debt ceiling raise and got nothing.
