Spending isn't a “conspiracy” just because Musk doesn’t know how to read usaspending.gov. A program isn't waste just because it doesn’t help the richest man in the world. It isn't fraud just because he doesn’t like it. A law is not illegal just because he disagrees with it.

This is the kind of bullshit middle management does to make it look like they did something this week. If you’re in a position of authority over other workers, and YOU don’t know what they’re doing or why it matters, then YOU’RE the useless one.

Obligatory share of this Aamer Rahman gem that hilariously makes this point! 🔥 youtu.be/dw_mRaIHb-M He is talking about the UK (the original colonizers) more than the States, but it highlights the impact of white supremacy & colonialism on Black & brown nations that still continue to be exploited! 👀

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

The fact that the ADL condemned the Bannon Nazi salute makes me think he’s more or less totally frozen out of the decision rooms, no wonder he hates Elon (no wonder anyone hates Elon but you know what I mean)

“By refusing to call figures like Patel what they are, the press is failing its duty to inform the public-and, frankly, it is enabling the further erosion of democratic norms.”

You do not fight political fights with the same policy as your opponent, especially if you paint your opponent’s policy as dangerous. Democrats should not get more conservative, the party should get dark money out and advocate for Medicare for All.

I wish more people were talking about egg prices as less of a “muh egg prices!” thing and more about the fact that there is an organized egg cartel that is illegally price gouging and almost certainly illegally price fixing and reaping massive, gigantic profits.

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”

The USPS is not a business. It's a well-liked--even loved--public service. Medicare and Social Security don't earn money either. They are public services. Everything does not need to be about making money. Some things are about making things work for us.
