Whom to believe now?

This is provocative and dead-nuts on, and the text of this speech should be required reading

Too soon? I think not

"Volunteering in your community is the ultimate cheat code." This is the missing link, IMHO. When we re-realize that contributing to each other's wellbeing is the winning formula, we'll start winning again.

Joni Ernst cast one of two pivotal votes to let this happen.

Better hurry, Folks

Does "The power of the pen" still exist? or is it "The power of the keyboard"? Either way we need to be connected to each other

So, this comic caused a bit of a stir yesterday and got me banned/flagged from certain places. I managed to grab this gif that someone posted before it got shut down. Thanks to everyone who shared. Disclaimer: I’m not advocating for anyone to go Travis Bickle themselves, it’s just a dumb comic.

@pizzacakecomic.bsky.social Giving Trump your vote AFTER Jan 6th? You get what you bought. no returns.

For daily pressers go viral, we have to spread them! Today the Dems on the @senatefinance.bsky.social, @baldwin.senate.gov Peter Welch, Catherine Cortez Masto @murray.senate.gov Maggie Hassan, Raphael Warnock and @wyden.senate.gov held a press conference on Medicaid Let’s make this viral!

I got raked across the coals for this take in 2022.

It’s tough to get crushed this bad. On the app he owns too. Embarrassing.

This resonates with me deeply.

Elon Musk just gave $1 million to the Republican who is running in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race. We are so fucked.

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Yup

I geeked out about synchronized planetary periods in this video and you should watch it 🧪🛰🔭👩‍🔬

You did what in Illinois? Get taken to court for trying to circumvent state law? Bring Dr. Phil for your super serious immigration effort? Girl..sit down and let the grownups do their work.

17th day of Black History Month quote from Mr Baldwin gets to the heart of what they are intent on destroying. They are desperately trying to dehumanize many who aren’t cookie cutter images of them. Cis white “Christian” men are the only ones they believe count. We know better. They do to. 🩵💙🩵💙

Marx was just like everybody else in that he got part of it right and part of it wrong. Right: The unacceptable barbarity of unregulated capitalism. Wrong: The paradise of communism.

None of the broligarchs knows what they’re talking about. They’re just hot air, spewing what sounds smart to them but is actually a telltale sign of ignorance.

Time to repost this No one elected MUSK

Elijah McCoy invented & patented steam engine lubrication systems. His inventions were so superior ppl asked if a product was "the real McCoy," a phrase still in use today. McCoy's innovations significantly improved the efficiency and safety of the railroad and shipping industries #BlackHistoryMonth

The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing.

This is the part I don’t understand. Rhetoric is free, baby

No fear...kindness wins the moments. Steadfast behavior comes with forethought. Steadfast behavior comes with convictions. Lead by example Know where your lines are drawn before you get into a situation, then, you don't need to decide; your reaction will be true to your heart and conscience

Teaching woodworking is a blast.

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes. The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds. This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen
