I believe @berniesanders4.bsky.social has the right tact, here. He's making this about what it really actually is: the 1% against the rest of us. They've declared war on us. Dems would be wise to go all in on this strategy and messaging. nebraskaexaminer.com/2025/02/22/o...

Interesting thing for the President to say about a person who, according the government’s lawyers, “has no actual or formal authority to make government decisions himself” and “only has the ability to advise the President, or communicate the President’s directives.”

Between this and his comments to the governor of Maine it looks clear that he is using unconstitutional coercion/extortion to compel policy outcomes at the state level that his office doesn’t give him the authority to dictate.

Modern-Day Peaceful Protest… TikTokers are hunting Cybertrucks—pulling up behind them and projecting anti-Elon Musk messages onto the tailgate. What’s genius: the driver has zero rear visibility & zero idea. The Cybertruck Hunters account launched a week ago and already dropped a dozen videos.

Wait. It gets worse: "The new document states that the revenues will be directed to a fund in which the United States holds 100 percent financial interest, and that Ukraine should contribute to the fund until it reaches $500 billion....The US has allocated $119 billion for aid to Ukraine."

According to Coinbase's just-filed 8-K (linked), the SEC has agreed to terminate with prejudice its lawsuit against Coinbase without payment of any monetary penalty. The 8-K does not state whether Coinbase has agreed to change any practices. In all events, a huge win for the Crypto industry.

Any teacher who's getting students to outsource thinking to an AI is bad at their job. Full stop. And that one teacher complaining her students' work is "stale"? WTF? Rather than teaching them how to think & write more creatively, she's teaching them to just stop thinking entirely. Seriously, WTAF?

Trump is much fonder of the world's most brutal autocrats than he is America's allies -- or the countries that were our allies before he retook power.

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”

🇺🇦 Sybiha: Russia’s war against Ukraine is the largest war of aggression in Europe since WWII. Allowing Putin to succeed would have disastrous consequences for the stability and common way of life of every family in Europe and the US. The cost of appeasement will be paid by ordinary people.

It's not about Brown, or Caine, or other individuals. It's not about reforming DOD . What it's about, at DOD and DOJ and the FBI and the intelligence community, is breaking all institutional resistance to Trump, and ensuring as much as is possible personal fealty to Trump.

All politics is economics. If the Supreme Court Citizens United decision grants more political power to those with more money, then to defeat them, it is essential that we target the sources of their wealth. Yes, that means you should sell your Tesla and get off X. open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...

Really enjoying the stories about congressmen getting yelled at about DOGE shit in their town halls. Not because I feel like it's necessarily going to move things in the right direction in the next election cycle or two, really. I just like stories about congressmen getting yelled at I think.

Let me explain the problem for Trump: When you purge the existing officer corps to create one personally loyal to him, you have also just created an alternate officer corps that despises him — and which will maintain a considerable level of influence over what the military does and does not do.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

Be clear about what you are seeing. The firing of these senior officers has nothing to do with competence. This is creating an oath of loyal by the Armed Forces to the Leader. We face an uncertain future.
