And it's going to get much worse!

There are basically 5 ways to accumulate a billion dollars: 1) Profiting from a monopoly 2) Insider-trading 3) Political payoffs 4) Fraud 5) Inheritance Don’t believe the self-made myth.

Republicans are embracing full on fascism. Nazi salutes, siding with murderous dictators, trash talking our allies, promoting hate, racist ideology, and bigotry, as well as, gaslighting Americans 24/7. In 30 days Trump & Republicans have managed to tank America’s reputation. The world hates us.

Spread the word!!! Share everywhere!

Truth

As seen from UK

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

If you were wondering if there is a word to describe how the United States is currently being governed, why, yes, there is: kakistocracy!

Good morning America...💙

He will burn down whatever he can, however he can Our systems of governance, rule of law, global alliances, even the Constitution. Consumed by vengeance and greed, he is the greatest threat to our Republic since its founding. We must meet this moment with the force of a thousand suns. Or perish.

It’s Thursday! Grab some coffee!

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

Indeed

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important: Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

I suspect we’re going to be hearing more stories about failing farmers having their land bought for cheep—it’s not a coincidence. Is this why USAID was cut—to make way for billionaires?! Watch til the end and keep an eye on national parklands too. 🧵

Turns out we need DEI to survive because mediocre white dudes ain’t cutting it.

The overwhelming majority of us prioritize safety, security, opportunities, equality, healthcare, freedoms, and justice for all. Stand up, speak out, and fight for the future you want. ✊ #MOMsky

This video kicks ass: youtu.be/o2jzKo1RqWU?...

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.

#ResistanceEarth #BlueEarth #Voices4Victory About 80% of the billions in green energy spending was set to go to Repub-leaning districts. The grants and tax credits were also spurring private investment. It's unlikely the districts will see any of the money now. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This WaPo piece has something valuable inside: the names of some of the grownups running DOGE behind the scenes. The Incels are a distraction. These people are real. It'd be helpful for people in the agencies to ID anyone from DOGE for...reasons. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

The time to BEWARE, has passed…👇 Hasn’t it?! Unfortunately. For. Everyone.

True words.

It feels like we are in 2020 again… only worse!
