At what point do leaders in the GOP band together (since they seem to lack courage individually) & say enough is enough? The party of Reagan becomes the tool of Putin if they don’t, especially after last night.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social: It’s 4am—still debating the Republicans’ billionaire tax giveaway. We offered an amendment to say no tax cut for those making over $10m. Every Republican voted no. So we tried $100m. Every Repub voted no. So we tried $500m! Every Republican a no. See what’s going on?

Reading a book of essays and thinking how the author and I have much in common in the way we think and try to understand the why. Then he tells a story about visiting his grandmother’s relatives in west TN and I realize, by family and town name, that he is talking about my grandmother’s people.

If the people of this state can collect the signatures to get on the ballot then pass an amendment to enshrine bodily autonomy in our Missouri Constitution,then we can certainly get the signatures to recall a couple of “running scared” GOP Senators.

JD Vance owns AcreTrader, an app that lets wealthy—often foreign—investors buy up U.S. farmland. Guess who’s deliberately tanking farm economies so JD and his billionaire tech buddies can scoop it up for pennies. civileats.com/2024/09/18/j...

They call public schools “government schools” so you won’t trust them. They call it “school choice” to make it sound like you have one. They whine about “parental rights” when they’re rights you already have. They call them school vouchers instead of what they are- discounts for the wealthy.

Unreal. DOGE posted National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) headcounts. NRO budgets and headcounts are classified to prevent adversaries from using them to extrapolate our intelligence priorities. Stop giving kids who don’t know what the fuck they’re doing access to this shit.
