"While Florida insurers claimed to be losing money in the wake of hurricanes Irma and Michael, their parent companies and affiliates were making billions of dollars, according to a study obtained by the Herald/Times." And it appears that the DeSantis administration tried to keep it under wraps.

A lesson in how claims of meritocracy as justification for opposing DEI are often cover for the demand that we return to a system of preference for white men - whatever their qualifications. Fire a qualified Black man. Hire a statutorily unqualified white man. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Per @scaramucci.bsky.social: “He just fired the Joint Chief of Staff. Wants to install a puppet. For those who think that he is contemplating leaving, they don’t understand what happened on January 6.”

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Here’s a photo of my grandpa (top right) & his bomber command. He was a tail gunner and died just before Dad was born. Today I learned “the life expectancy of a tail gunner was typically around 6 - 8 weeks”. 💔 I WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN, GRANDPA. I WILL DO WHAT I AM ABLE TO RESIST FASCISM! Honor THEM!🇺🇸

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

People ask me, "Are you afraid of Trump?" Oh, fuck no, and you...shouldn't be either. Look, it's pretty clear to me that Donald Trump's wish to crush this country and strip its citizens of their rights will fail. 1/5

Just moments ago, I received this message from a female Ukrainian soldier. It made my eyes get damp. Please, every day of your life, post and express support for Ukraine, and nothing but condemnation for Putin. As you can see, our support…matters.

Gov. Mills showed precisely the sort of integrity in the face of political pressure that the majority of the party currently lacks. More importantly, she did so extemporaneously and without hesitation from a purple state where this isn't a universally popular position. www.maine.gov/governor/mil...

btw, i will tell you this - i have been talking to people all day, and the media is missing, whether intentionally or not, how absolutely, volcanically angry the people who have been fired are, not because they lost their jobs, but because their jobs matter, to us

All federal employees are now forbidden from subscribing to anything but right-wing news. If you’re confused, it’s called “state run media” and it’s quite popular in North Korea.

OREGON: “The house & senate are totally abdicating their responsibilities.” @RepBentz (R) is the latest Republican to get confronted by constituents at a town hall. (Tennessee folks— town halls are these things where senators/reps show up and you can talk to them in person)

General Brown is a brilliant, amazing leader. I worked at the Air Staff for three years and it was known that he read everything the staff wrote for him. He believes if an analyst took the time to write it, it’s his responsibility to read it. Very few generals do this.

Take it from a guy who was nearly killed because of Trump's lies 👇 Former Vice President Mike Pence speaks for all of us, on this point at least, when we see an American President spew disgusting, easily provable lies and grovel at the feet of a murderous Russian dictator. #TraitorTrump

I am very politically active and write/call my congressman often. I have lived in his district for almost 2 decades. I have never seen him in person and it’s not for a lack of trying. No town halls. No visiting his district. I’ve never seen hide nor hair of Sam Graves.
