See, that wasn't so hard. It's really a collective action problem. What we need is an overwhelming show of support and condemnation for the shakedowns of Paul Weiss et al by basically every big firm in America. But no surprise that @marcelias.bsky.social is leading the way. He's the whole package.

Lawson: Social Security works… And you know why? Because Wall Street doesn't get a piece of it. Because we don't let the billionaires reach their greedy little into it and that's why they hate it

Kaufmann: DOGE claims to have found Social Security loans going to 11 year olds and under. It's a survivor benefit annuity to young children whose parents have passed. That's the problem billionaires without a clue doing a job they don't understand

Anna Paulina Luna didn’t want to talk to her constituents. So I did.

❤️BREAKING❤️ - Bernie Sanders before 20k People in Tucson: "They have the wealth. They have all the money in the world. They have the power. They have the media. But you know what they don’t have? We’ve got 20,000 people here in Tucson and we got 100's of millions of people all across this country."

Casar: You can quickly explain Doge with just two numbers. First: $8 million a day. That’s how much Elon Musk collects in federal government contracts. Second: $65 a day. That’s how much the average senior—someone who has worked their entire life—gets from Social Security.…

Donald Trump is scum of the earth. Because of him, people were killed January 6th, & his VP was supposed to be hung. Nothing he says is true, & I don't care what he says. As he said to victims of gun violence, perhaps he & Musk should "get over it." FUCK HIM! www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

This country is in deep trouble. Deep, deep trouble. The courts move slowly. They take advantage of that, and there is literally no one to stop them before the damage is done. This is what real New World Order looks like.

I’ll be one of the 20,000! Can’t wait

The guy whose daddy bought his way into Wharton, the guy whose grades were so shitty he's never disclosed them – that guy just destroyed the Department of Education. This is what dystopia looks like. This is what Fascism looks like.

Governor Tim Walz is doing exactly what Biden and Harris should have been doing. He's speaking out. He's holding Town Hall meetings. He's doing the news shows. He's condemning Musk and Trump. He's DOING what great leaders do.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

The decisive test of our society in my lifetime was the 2024 election and our failure was spectacular and total. I will never again have any faith in the American electorate to do the obviously right thing.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has suggested allowing bird flu to spread, so as to identify birds that may be immune. Veterinary scientists said that would be inhumane, dangerous and have enormous economic consequences.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I think Marco Rubio probably needs to be sent back to school.. When you arbitrarily rip up trade agreements, threaten a country, and say you’re going to break it, that’s an act of war. And Canadians have responded in kind.

Slight revisions.

“Less medical research, a pull-back on life-saving vaccines, turning away from science and embracing folk medicine. Make America Healthy Again. Again. Meaning: America used to be ‘healthy’ and now is not. This is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.” open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

Exactly

This power grab is unprecedented, unbounded, and unconstitutional.

America is *so* stupid.

The #ElectoralCollege is #DEI for #RedStates

Walz: I think they hate public education because it’s easier to run an authoritarian government if you don’t have a population that knows.

So. The petulant child who owns Meta has placed an injunction on the author of this book about her time working there. She can’t promote it herself. But we can promote it all we want. Right? Oh. Support indie book sellers! bookshop.org/p/books/care...
