It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

People fuck up, but Wild Coast Raw is literally killing cats and declining to take ANY responsibility for it. My COMPLETELY INDOOR cats ate batch 22660. They are still acting like the bird flu results were fake. My stud who does not eat raw was negative. This WILL kill cats. This is evil.

This article understates the danger of the Musk-Trump lies on Social Security. They will claim massive fraud as a justification to massively cut, which helps them with tax cuts for the wealthiest. No, there are not millions of dead people receiving SS checks. www.ksat.com/news/politic...

The Trump admin is trying to un-fire nuclear safety workers — but can’t figure out how to reach them. The workers, whose agency oversees the nuclear stockpile, had been fired and lost access to their government emails. The admin doesn't have their new contact info. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

AP is banned from WH events and all the other legacy journalists walk right in. If this was the 60s, we know who would have been with the Freedom Riders, and who would’ve been writing about them from a safe place. AP stands alone. Sad but true.

Here’s the thing. Every one of these people in tears heard Trump on the stump before Nov. They knew he was cruel. But they were fine with it, thinking he’d only hurt the people they didn’t like. The problem with cruelty—It spreads. You don’t get to control it. Sooner or later, it comes for you too.

RIP Hurricane, a black Belgian Malinois recognized for his valour and bravery in 2014 by protecting the President & First Family from an intruder. Even when punched and kicked, he didn't let go until things were safe. He is considered the most decorated dog in American history.

"Just one more thing. You say you're the law and order president, yet you released 1,500 rioters. You claim to support the police, but many of those rioters attacked them. Now you're firing FBI agents and prosecutors. Frankly, Mrs. Columbo thinks you're a criminal."

Accidentally fired Nuclear Security workers. Accidentally fired bird fly workers. It is abundantly clear here Musk is blowtorching the federal government on phony claims of fraud and waste, just like he blowtorched Twitter. It is 100% shock doctrine (see @naomiaklein.bsky.social) bs.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.
