Roses are red Daisies are plain

It’s surreal how fast the United States has fallen into a dictatorial regime. Checks and balances are gone, the president disappears innocent people into foreign prison camps, words get banned, and the Overton window shifts at light speed. I honestly wonder these days when they will come for me.

I’ve never seen a tweet that more effectively communicates how we got to this current situation

No fucking shit. It's not that people don't want to work. People don't want to be EXPLOITED by an employer. Universal basic income means folks can choose what they WANT to do, instead of what they have to do just to survive.

People will ask me if I'm joking. My friend that's not how this works. How this works is, I say something serious and YOU tell ME if I'm joking & I simply concur. I have studied many neurotypicals. This is definitely how it's done.

This is how it’s done, ladies and gentlemen.

If you're in congress and you aren't publicly in favor of banning the trading of individual stocks by people in congress, get your head out of your fucking ass.

Victim complex

Can we actually have accountability??

🚨 NEWS: The White House confirms the tariff on Chinese imports is now 145%—not 125%. Reminder: tariffs are taxes on imported goods, which means Americans end up paying more.

I wonder what Martha Stewart would say about all the insider trading going on at the White House.

Did you have ICE has a”tip line” and a”tip form” that they hope people will use to report their neighbors??? Toll-free ICE Tip Line: (866) 347-2423 Wouldn't it be “a shame” if were flooded with tips about Elon Musk?

“He made 2.5 million today and he made $900 million. That’s not bad.” Sounds like market manipulation to me. That’s bad.

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made. -FS Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, published 4/10/1925.

The White House. The actual White House. This is the attitude of every abuser, who is now fearful of the consequences of their abuse.

If you’re fighting for social justice, wear a mask. Mad about tariffs? Wear a mask. Participating in Hands Off? Wear a mask. Want to fight fascism? Wear a mask. The Covid pandemic is not over. People are dying & becoming disabled every day. Protect your health & the health of your community.

The dizzying U.S. President Donald Trump-led attempts to negotiate peace in the world arena dominate the news cycle instead. But as the world reacts to each new mineral deal draft and aggressive tweet, Russian forces continue to attack Ukrainian lines on a daily basis across the front line.

"Democratic leaders like my former boss are increasingly alienating young voters and progressives alike due to ideological rigidity, inadequate policy responses, and a failure to address the evolving socio-political landscape."

We found the government “waste, fraud, and abuse”.

The State of Palestine is recognized as a sovereign nation by 147 countries, representing 75% of UN members. So, which countries are they? 🔗: aje.io/8zclwb

Adobe deleting their first BlueSky post because they realize that the artist community pretty much universally hates them now is extremely funny

The problem is sociopathic corporate greed. 🧐

in so much news coverage there’s still this sense of propriety and decorum in the face of an outright assault on our civil and human rights. i just want to remind journalists that your politeness will not save you—so you might as well say what you really mean.

Just ask Mary Poppins.

Yes, I do mean I'll be sick forever ever ever ever ever No, I can't believe it either

COVID didn't "turn out fine." Over 1 million people died in just the US. People are still dying. 100s of thousands of people are still dealing with the effects of Long COVID. And the entire country lost its shit and is still unwell. Tariffs will not "turn out fine." Effects will be experienced.

Correct.

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie. America, people. Freedom and stuff.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court lifted a temporary block on President Trump’s use of the Alien Enemies Act. The court also ruled to protect due process, meaning no one can be removed without a chance to challenge their deportation. We’ll keep fighting until this is blocked for good.

Remember this… 👇

President Trump’s ongoing retaliation against law firms for representing clients or causes he opposes should concern all Americans. It not only violates the First Amendment but also undermines access to vigorous legal representation, especially for anyone up against those in power.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

Let’s be clear. He sold $2.4 billion of his stock the day before he announced tariffs. He’s now crashing the stock market deliberately. He will then buy stock when it’s fallen through the floor. All this is is him stiffing everyone to get richer. That’s it.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

They’re tariffing the Australian Penguins! #auspol #Australia #Politics

Encouraged to see the massive turnout at the thousands of protests across the country today. We’re stronger together.

Hahahaha! Love this! @maddow.msnbc.com
