Traverse City MI 2-17-25. What an inspiring day as we all came together in snow, wind, and cold. Temp of 10F and snow falling periodically. Speakers included Callie Barr and @betsycoffia.bsky.social It was a great turnout. Thanks to the local @indivisible.org and the other groups for the rally

If you’ve heard about the “DNR clear-cutting forest in Gaylord for a solar farm”, you need to be aware of just how much of the discussion is anti-green energy misinformation. thinc.blog/2025/01/16/f...

🚨Trump is pausing his proposed 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico—but only after forcing meaningless concessions. Canada had to create a “fentanyl czar” (a position they already had, just renamed), and Mexico had to commit 10,000 troops to the border (where they already have 15,000).

-Tariffs on Mexico (and Canada) paused after almost crashing the market -Contentious meeting at City Commission, including over a half hour debating salt for roads -Stress levels are way too high Time for another Margarita Monday!

This is why trucks are so off-putting to me In my mind, a truck is the 80s-90s truck, that's what I grew up with (with some older ones thrown in sometimes too) I remember when they started really making it fucky in the 00s & at 1st we all made fun of it even the dumber rednecks Then they liked it

It was great to hear Gov. Whitmer talk about this at the Northern Michigan Policy Comference!

It’s a shame this attitude didn’t persist longer, now he can get a ‘priest’ to ‘salute’ him

Trump's illegal funding "pause" sent everyone from Head Start programs to Meals on Wheels scrambling to figure out how to keep the lights on. This MAGA chaos wasted time and resources. It's irresponsible and dangerous.

Higher cost for gas and energy. Less investment coming to the state and fewer jobs created. Major damage to Michigan's auto industry. Trump's Executive Orders are likely to create big problems for Michiganders.

No explanation needed

Trump is about to impose tariffs on Columbia over migrants, at a time when coffee prices were already at all-time highs. I thought he was supposed to make prices go down?? #Trumpflation #WeCan’tAffordTradeWars

Up to a thousand followers! At this rate it’ll pass up my Twitter account my next month

CARTOON OF THE DAY

More than 200 executive orders expected tomorrow. Not one of them will lower the price of eggs.

A bit of Ukrainian music, for solidarity’s sake! www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-VV...

More Americans voted for someone other than Trump. NOT a landslide. NOT a mandate.
