The connection of domestic violence and authoritarian governments is my Roman Empire. Absurd that I didn't find this book while I was running for office and had "making our society unfriendly to abusers will make it unfriendly to tyrants" as part of my stump speech.

Canadians on here actually being like "I can't believe how bad things are getting in the US" without acknowledging Alberta just passed some of the harshest anti-LGBTQ+ laws and are about to vote Doug Ford back into power. Wakeup because the far right are in inside the building

Republicans want to kill your grandparents. They want to cut Medicaid by nearly a trillion bucks so billionaires keep more money in their accounts. Medicaid pays for nursing home care.

Putting a face to what you read in the news. Until last Friday, I served our nation working as a Research Ecologist with the US Geological Survey (USGS). As a federal scientist, I provided robust, defensible information to support good decisions in natural resource management.

People literally died from Covid while claiming it doesn’t exist. There is never going to be a wake up call for some people. A lot of people. It’s not about convincing them if they can’t be convinced. IMO it’s about overwhelming them entirely with opposition.

I've read most of the analyses of the DOGE 2025 "receipts" site. This, from NPR, is the best I've read so far. Some of what they claim to have cut haven't been cut, other "cuts" will incur costs down the road. NPR says DOGE has made $2B of cuts, not $55B. www.npr.org/2025/02/19/n...

By the way, people should understand that the admin doesn't have to shoot or gas people to kill them. If you pile people in military-run camps in Gitmo and the Panamanian jungle without adequate food or healthcare and just wait, people will die

I missed this earlier today: one of Michigan’s two Republican justices announced her retirement today. Gretchen Whitmer will appoint her replacement. That will likely bring Democrats’ majority on this key court to 6-1.

Trump on DOGE: We’re going to go into Fort Knox to make sure the gold is still there. You know that? We’re going to go into Fort Knox. You know about that? We hope everything is fine with Fort Knox. But we’re going to go to Fort Knox and make sure the gold is still there.

I don’t know how often we have to go over this, but when the president speaks, policy occurs. The president cannot troll. When he calls himself a king, it’s an emergency. Fucking act like it.

Did You Know? The inventor of the bestselling Super Soaker was a Black man—and Hasbro tried to cheat him out of his royalties. In 2013, Lonnie Johnson, a nuclear engineer and former NASA scientist, won a $73 million settlement from Hasbro for underpaid royalties. Johnson holds over 80 patents.

My corruption has waited 14 months for social security. My corruption has a dominant side impact and tremor. I’d work if I could. They don’t hire elementary teachers that can’t write and do recesses with kids. I’ve never been corrupt. That’s a new one for me. Usually I’m corrupt when I work. 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️
