Ffs It’s not a negotiation. It’s a shakedown.

It “only” takes $13.7mil to be in the top 1%. 73 of those people hold $1bn or more Mark has around $6bn = 138 other Top 1%ers Elon has $396bn = 28,905 other Top 1%ers. The scale is literally unimaginable.

I hear a quartet - Jasmine, Alexandria, Bernie and Pete. Jb is warming up. They are our voice right now.

That’s gonna backfire… spectacularly.

LOVED IT. Every bit.

That makes sense. But it’s entirely possible that we won’t have another election for federal offices.

Jeffries had potential. He could lead the resistance. But he’s playing too safe. He’s done.

Josh is stepping up too.

We’re waiting, dude.

“Weird” didn’t work in the election. We’ve got to pin psychopathic, “only in it for himself”, and “dangerous to our well-being” on him.

Had to give you that second heart.

“I can’t agree with that here” because I’d lose my job and I was told to make trans people into demons. Not “I can’t agree with that here” because I don’t actually believe it.

Not sure. It’s maddening.

I did. Non voters outnumbered voters 42-27% in 30-49 yr olds, which covers the younger GenX & represent the largest percent of the population (1/3). The margin was tiny. Any sway in these turnout numbers wins the election. Age 45-64 (different study) is the only bracket that Trump won. That’s us.

Hey I’m in gen x. We sucked in this election. Middle Aged white people broke significantly for trump
comment in response to post
Most of the millennials got it right. It’s the gen xers and boomers who are screwing up.

Oh cool! So you’re going to run it? Can’t wait to see it tomorrow.
comment in response to post
Maybe. But we are all out here trying to figure out what to do. Leaders need to LEAD.

Stop every single piece of Senate business. DO NOT NEGOTIATE ON SPENDING BILLS. Filibuster. Speak loudly about what is happening in that body. Make sure they shut down the government (no compromises on the debt ceiling). Stop voting for cabinet nominees. NOT ONE DEM VOTE for his chosen ones.

At this point, we’d need McCormick just to countermand Fetterman.

Just cancelled flights for March 9th and 15th. I have no confidence in the FAA.

Dude, Schiff is a Senator. He’s got some power.

Will CNN publish those ads on their sites?

He doesn’t think. He latches on to ideas… never playing them out to any logical conclusion.

I’m truly amazed it has ANY market value.

Stop the coup. It’s not hyperbole. It’s reality.
comment in response to post
With all due respect, they are closing these establishments and so many more without any budget authority. Stop the Coup, not the “budget.”

Flax meal and warm water also makes a fantastic egg substitute for baking!

Allison Gill is helping people navigate some of this too. She has first-hand experience… @muellershewrote.bsky.social

Debt exists because revenue did not keep pace with costs. You’d think a Silicon Valley billionaire would know this. Raise his taxes. Close the gap.

100%. I keep looking for guidance. I’m not finding any.
comment in response to post
Too little, too late. Fewer than 15% of House seats are competitive, thanks to gerrymandering and voter suppression. It’s a long-shot for us to flip the Senate. And none of this will matter at all if we keep allowing the plunder and destruction of our institutions.
comment in response to post
Senator Warren is one of the most effective communicators we have, along with AOC and Jasmine Crockett. But we need more than words. I keep asking our elected leaders what we should do - I’m tired of leaving the same voicemails day after day. This isn’t time for talk.
comment in response to post
It’s worth a lot more to them, but it’s also completely devastating for average people. B(m)illionaires won’t change their lifestyles if their portfolios are cut in half. Normal people will die.
comment in response to post
What’s the plan? What should WE - the people - be doing right now? We need some leadership from our elected officials. Writing letters, making calls, holding signs - is changing nothing. Please - help us organize in a meaningful way to put an end to this disaster for our country.

All these groups should walk off the job.
