this feels a little weird! is it normal to do a car dealership at the white house, I don't know much about politics

If I could speak to billionaires quivering in fear, I would ask: Is the risk of losing some money worth sacrificing your dignity? If I could speak to Republican politicians, I would ask: Is the risk of losing an election worth being remembered as a coward?

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Brilliant… offering a unique dive into a rarely explored character: the enemy. At times heartbreaking, funny, sweet, and monstrous, such is the nature of the human animal. This writer seems to have that rare ability to see deep inside us all." Amazon review/Canada #historicalfiction #booksky

"I just finished reading "Mary - Tudor Princess" by Tony Riches and I absolutely loved it! Highly recommend this book to anyone interested in historical fiction or the Tudor period." (Amazon Review) mybook.to/MaryTudor #Tudors #HistoricalFiction #WomensHistoryMonth

Anonymous has entered the fight against fascism. They already took X down three times today. This should be fun to watch play out…

Thoughts on boycotts: inflict pain on the corporation. Buying a couple 99 cent ebooks from a self-published author on Amazon is fine. Don’t buy a microwave on it. Purity is never the answer. Restraint though and thoughtfulness is.

Here’s a nice story, I re-met this gentleman in Appleton WI last night, he was my opponents tracker in 2010, would come and record me, but was always polite. We got along well, despite being on opposite sides. Now we’re both on the same side!

Senate Majority Leader John Thune made clear in a brief interview on Monday night that he did not intend to put the House budget resolution on the floor before the Senate’s expected mid-March break that will start after March 14 — the same day as the deadline to avoid a government shutdown.

American consumers and businesses stand to pay a hefty price for the tariffs President Donald Trump enacted on the nation’s top three trading partners. Here’s where they could feel the sting hardest.

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s focus on vitamin A use to combat a growing measles outbreak in Texas is raising concerns among public health experts, who fear he is sending the wrong message about preventing the highly contagious disease and distracting from the importance of vaccination.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

HERO vs ZERO I'm in a state of shock & still trying to process yesterday's shameful, traitorous debacle in the WH: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY. Our standing in the world has plummeted overnight, but the repercussions will be felt forevermore. #SlavaUkraini🇺🇦 #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

Now THIS is true leadership on the world stage. In stark contrast to the weak, ignorant clown we currently have in the White House. #SlavaUkraini 🇬🇧 🇺🇦

Wowsa. Journalist @janemayer.bsky.social, who broke the story on Hegseth in the @newyorker.com just said on @maddowblog.bsky.social that since the story broke, her phone has been ringing off the hook with more people calling who witnessed Hegseth’s extreme drunkenness.

Yes

Did you guys ever have to try and paint with coffee in school? I tried to do it again after over a decade! Though, this was a while ago now. 8x10” coffee on watercolour paper, San of ATEEZ #ateez #ateezfanart #ateezsan #choisan #kpopfanart #kpopsky

This Thanksgiving, I’m grateful for the irrepressible love of freedom in our land, the wisdom of our Founders and successive generations who built strong democracy, and the joyful goodness of our families. Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Oh what could have been. But I will NOT give up, I will NOT give in. I am ready to FIGHT for the future. Generations to come will ask of us, "what did you do this in this moment" and I will answer - everything I fucking could.
