The idea of government bailing out big #business should never have happened. If a corporation truly was "too big to fail," and they needed to be bailed out, then the government should have taken control. Why should tax payers be forced to subsidize the losses, but not benefit from the profits?

If Rubio is going to argue that Mahmoud Khalil's presence in the US "poses serious adverse foreign policy consequences for the United States," then we need to use this argument to kick the Muskrat out. #LeftSky #PoliSky

Being a #teacher is wild. Teachers are subjected to society's collective trauma every day, and we have no choice but to hold ourselves together. When a student acts out, it's usually a trauma response. And we have to keep that in mind when correcting their behaviors.

Man, our #space program is such a disappointment right now. And #Musk is failing to deliver. Again. And is now in charge of government efficiency? Space travel needs to be a public endeavor, and I think we need to combine all the individual space agencies into a global conglomerate.

I live in MD1. The only #republican rep in #Maryland. The fact that Andy fkn Harris is the Chair of the House Freedom Caucus just blows my mind. He NEVER shows up to anything important in his own district. He doesn't care about his constituents; only his own personal advancement.

Every. Single. Democrat. Should have followed Rep. Green's lead last night. Instead, we got more performative nonsense from them. We need candidates who are willing to actually fight. #politics #polisky #leftsky #leftist #SOTU

My students had such a fun day at the #Vex robotics competition yesterday. It is amazing that my district is able to do this. I dreamed of being on a robotics team when I was a student, and jumped at the opportunity to help coach one. I'm so proud of all my students. #Teachersky #Teach #EduSky

Local central committees need to start grooming candidates. Find your local Non-Profit, NGO leaders in your community. Get them on the ballot for local offices. We need as many people to file to run, because apathy has destroyed us.

This is just sad. The Muskrat is pathetic. Apparently Grimes was shadow banned right after posting this. And these tweets are allegedly no longer available. Sounds like Musky boi got big mad.

5 officers in Alabama indicted. Grand jury recommends the police department be abolished after a history of rampant corruption. We are so worried about immigration bringing drugs, when it's our own law enforcement putting our communities at risk. #leftist #left

Look, I don't care how many times I read the series. Two things will always stand out to me. 1) Verin Sedai is hands down the best secondary character. Her story ending blows my mind every time. 2) Gawyn is a dingus. #WoT #WoTsky #Booksky #wheeloftime

Apparently a foreclosure auction in #Oklahoma turned into a penny auction. The community came out and supported their own. We need more of that. #Solidarity #Leftist

Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

This is exactly why there cannot be reconciliation: Trump voters do not care about corruption, they only care if they can't benefit from it. substack.com/profile/8934...

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

Elon Musk became the richest person in the history of the world by scamming the American People out of their tax dollars. Now he has used that wealth to make sure the spotlight stays off of him. As soon as we take control of the House and Senate, he needs to be investigated

Let me make sure I understand this. The Muskrat spends $300mil to essentially purchase this election. Then he gets the President to agree to buy his Cybertrucks for the military at a bill of $400mil. And the #GOP does not see any ethical dilemma there? #PoliSky #LeftSky #PolicySky #Corruption

When I'm done reading a book series and don't have another lined up, I'll usually pick up a random Wheel of Time book to pass the time until I get around to getting a new #book. If we had more people in power like Silviana, I think the world would be a little better. I love her character growth.

If they wanted to take over the country, they only had to wait like three weeks until every technocratic nerd was unreachably distracted. They fundamentally do not understand us, and that is why they will lose.
