SCOOP from @davidcorn.bsky.social : RFK Jr. secretly recorded his second wife during their bitter divorce fight and in one conversation acknowledged he was "polygamous." One recording might have violated state law. It's a messy saga that ended with her suicide. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Well, the dollars, the dopamine, the egos won. The silence from top influencers was deafening, and the rush back to Meta’s embrace by others? Heartbreaking. TikTok’s fate aside, one thing’s clear: we all just learned a hard lesson about platforms and loyalty. Actions speak so loud.

Just listened to entire conversation on cable news where they talked Trump flip flop on tik tok ban without anyone mentioning that billionaire Jeff Yass who supports Trump owns a big chunk of tik tok. Trump wanted to ban Tik Tok until Yass showed up. This is corporate media protecting the oligarchs

I hope America notices that nobody is interfering with the peaceful transfer of power today. Nobody trying to break into The Capital and hang VP Harris. True character is defined by one's actions. Dems do the right thing. MAGA whines, steals, cheats, obstructs & makes everything chaotic.

Should we continue to encourage kids to go to college ? Or push them to take up a trade ? I believe in college. Learning how to learn, IMO, is a critical life skill. Being exposed to people of different backgrounds, makes yiu wiser Qualifier- it should be a school you can afford.
