Twitter is down. Tesla stock is down. A SpaceX rocket went down. Prices are up. Inflation is up. Maybe Elon Muskā€¦ isnā€™t the best at this?

Another day, another twitter outage. So glad this man practically runs the federal government.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isnā€™t DEI. Itā€™s white Christian Nationalism.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Donā€™t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are šŸ“‰

He's not blaming DEI, he's blaming women and non white people.

I finished my first necklace and Iā€™m so unGODLY proud

Less than a week before leaving the White House, President Joe Biden is lifting the state sponsor of terrorism designation for Cuba, nearly four years to the day from when then-President Donald Trump, in one of his own last acts in office, put Havana back on the list.

Crockett: The fact that you just sat up there and somehow figured out how to tie trans folk to your argument makes no sense to me but let me tell you something.. Trans people ainā€™t going nowhere

Itā€™s the way Iā€™d move to Virginia, Maryland or any of New England if not for the fact it is SO expensive. UGH.

all of it.

Really wish bluesky would have a better ā€œdiscoverā€ algorithm. Iā€™d rather find other political and policy stuff than some random photo of a butterfly, or someone posting about their dog, etc.

Iā€™m also incredibly thankful the Canadian government hasnā€™t taken it out on the American people yet. The Canadian government has shown a tremendous amount of patience

But but but, the conservative pick me gays said as long as we attacked our trans siblings the LGB community would be safe!!!

Itā€™s really exhausting as a young person in politics that we already have to shoulder all the issues the generations before us have created and left to us, But watching people freak out that ā€œdemocracy is overā€ is not at all helping the motivation to continue being in politics.

some of yā€™all left of center folks need to find a coping mechanism that isnā€™t theorycrafting all of the worst impacts of an administration that doesnā€™t even exist yet.

Thanks to Congressman Thomas Massie we now know that House Republicans slipped in a measure to protect Netanyahu. A wat criminal who is preventing all avenues towards peace between Israel and Palestine. Are we really to believe these countries (US & Israel) want peace?

people think Biden was trying to be FDR when he was actually trying to be Carter all along, just hopefully without the crushing defeat in 1980. How'd that go for him? Even worse, it turns out. and he was a worse President, too.

NOOOOOOOO

Congress has not rolled over like this for someone who isnā€™t even part of the government in its entire history

As we get final results, I firmly believe if Kamala Harris had straight up said ā€œJoe Bidenā€™s economics while well intentioned have done more harm than good, hereā€™s what Iā€™ll do differently-ā€œ she wouldā€™ve won. 75m-77m is 100% a closeable gap. She was just too unwilling to distance herself.

yā€™all realize that RFK jr is a tin foil hat conspiracy theorist right? Yes, we all want to take on big agriculture and we should, but RFK is a vaccine denier and largely responsible for a deadly measles outbreak in Samoa. He should not be confirmed.

Corporate media, a play in 3 acts

Trump, Mike Johnson, and the billionaires who want to run our government have no interest in working with Democrats or supporting working people. They want to pillage and redirect wealth into their companies and friends. We should oppose, not work with them.

I miss the feeling of hope and joy of the Harris campaign

Worth noting that McConnell refusing to whip votes to convict Trump at his impeachment trial (or vote himself to convict) is *why* weā€™re in this position right now. If McConnell is looking for the person at fault, he might want to consult a mirror.

okay things are really heating up for house progressives weā€™re starting to cook with gas

Going through momā€™s pictures from Ossoffā€™s 2017 run, and yā€™all are welcome

Why should we work with two billionaires that are hell bent on destroying public benefits and healthcare. Democrats need to oppose their efforts with everything we got. There is no room for partnership.

Uh oh.

Spotify just called me a slur

It makes me so angry that this brilliant exceptionally qualified woman couldā€™ve been our next President yet many people chose a disgusting piece of shit criminal instead.

Trying to navigate more on here but u donā€™t get the hits like twitter gives me.

What.

You know what? Sure. Why not.
