813 US billionaires held a record $6.72 trillion in wealth at the end of 2024. The bottom 50% of Americans held roughly $3.9 trillion in wealth. When 813 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

17 year loop. When cicadas re-emerge Will we still be here? #scifaikusaturday

Gaza Strip 2025 = Warsaw Ghetto 1940 Ethnic cleansing brought to you by the Israeli Government and sponsored by the American Military.

So everybody is screaming that what Musk and his usurpers is doing is illegal. And it is, but Trump will just pardon them.

He can't comprehend the value of building friendships and allies internationally by providing humanitarian aid so he is shutting down USAID. People will die because of this and America's relationships with friends and allies will be damaged for a long time. 2/2

Trump doesn't understand the value of allies and friends because he never had any. Everything in his shallow life is transactional around money. Everything. 1/2

If our ersatz opposition party had any courage, they would be blocking the entry to the Treasury Building with their physical bodies to prevent Musk and his usurpers from the building. But instead we get a press conference this afternoon. It's your data and your money that they are stealing.

If Trump told the Republicans in Congress to drink Koolaid spiked with cyanide, most of them would voluntarily do it. Its a toxic cult and they are standing by doing nothing as Trump and Musk are executing a coup.

Does the Musk team have access to SF-86 security clearance records?

There is a coup ongoing in Washington DC apparently with no opposition from anybody.

Is there a word for when a bunch of private citizens following orders from an unelected billionaire occupy government buildings and cut off communications

Schiff voted to confirm Sean Duffy as Transportation Secretary, even after Trump issued the illegal order to freeze federal funding.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

I actually wish the media would stop using "DEI" and "diversity hiring" and just get to the essence of the thing and ask: "Are you saying that this crash was caused by desegregating the races?" And see what happens.

To recap, Trump: -Forced out the FAA chief at Musk's insistence -Imposed a hiring freeze that reportedly included air traffic controllers -Fired the TSA head and gutted a key aviation safety committee -Blamed the DCA crash on DEI This is disastrous leadership.

Heck of a job, Duffy. newrepublic.com/post/190947/...

When Trump and his lackeys say the "problem is DEI" and "woke" they mean the "problem" is people of color, women, and LBGQT. This is the most openly racist, misogynistic, and bigoted administration in my lifetime. Don't be afraid to say so.

Remember when President Obama pledged to close the prison and torture chambers in Guantanamo Bay? I suppose Trump can't wait to use that prime real estate for what it was intended: indefinite detentions and "enhanced interrogation techniques." Whose gonna know?

Suspending federal school lunch funding? Only 8 days and we've already reached the "let them eat cake" stage.
