Move your money

My sentiments exactly

Just listened to @martinepowers.bsky.social interview w/ Rep. Sarah McBride & wanted to add that I think a lot of folk aren’t out like they were in 2016 because #potus proved eager to use violence again peaceful protest & Kyle Rittenhouse’s walked free. Resistance is gonna show up differently now.

So in the middle of a recruiting crisis & a huge issue with work ethic generally speaking… we as a society are saying no to best in class folk who would be willing and able to serve? What in the actual fuck?

@vox.com rereleased #SeanIlling pod episode ‘is America broken’ w/ #AlanaNewhouse today and I’d like him to inquire further to a 3rd type of citizen - the ‘redesigned’ I am not a reformer, not a burn downer… I want us to redesign so that we can build something new, while holding onto what’s good.

Good businessmen (yes, men & yes, mostly white) when unregulated have proven themselves to be ruthless & cruel. Hence regulation is needed to heed their urges to cause harm. Why one would want said leaders in government AND at the helm is truly beyond me.

BOOM

Confirmed

FLARES ARE THE PANT OF THE YEAR

So selling out is entirely out of fashion. The celebs slinging trash for peasants is real. Cash grabs is the new no fucking way.

Glad I’m not a #tmobile customer or I’d be existing stage LEFT quickly. #superbowl

So #julialoiusedryfus is playing the ultimate evil villain aka #tulsigabbard in the new #marvelmovie?

My sentiments exactly

Watched/listened to @thebulwark.bsky.social interview w/ @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social & sincerely wondering who’s responsible for Ezra’s glow up. He’s been speaking about lifting weights lately… but who’s his stylist?

Brilliant and succinct

But where will the staffing needed to complete all these tasks come from!?

Remember when Melania’s big project was ‘be best’ and about anti bullying? I think the USA has always been a bully, but Trump 2.0 is a horrific bully nationally AND internationally #justsayin

Would love to discuss protest through not paying our federal taxes…

Morning convo w/ the Mr on how the weaponization of DEI is sounding a lot like how how the nazi’s spoke about Jews (eg - the plane crash DEI blaming by Trump) when the bullhorns use a group as just cause for bad outcomes/circumstances, they dehumanize them. This is replicated in most fascist regimes

Incredibly important listen if you want to digest just what is happening in term of fascist efforts by this administration

DEI WHEN MISUSED LIKE THIS ADMINISTRATION IS DOING IS NOTHING BUT PROPOGANDA

Entitled #nepobabies with strong opinions & little expertise is NOT my ideal for cabinet leadership…and yet, here we are. Holding strong views developed through experience in the field should be a priority when vetting leaders, strong views without experience are just ideas.

Let’s go!

#hello

I *want* to be capable of listening to right wing thinkers to better understand their positions (cough, listening to @vox.com’s today explained w/ guest #CalleyMeans on RFK) but their combative, perhaps hysterical tone makes it fucking impossible. Also the disruptive mansplaining defensiveness sucks

If we don’t hold this administration accountable for the laws they are breaking, and #scotus is bending law towards this administration that doesn’t respect the law… then why do we need to abide by any laws? Nor pay taxes? I’m confused.

Processing in real time as I learn & read more than normal about wtf got us here… realizing I would like a formal & legitimate apology from dems. I’m an independent who has voted dem as they’re closer to my values in theory. But shit, they’ve not produced for me in all my voting years & im fed up

A non-twitter link to Carline Kennedy's truly arresting video about her cousin RFK's lack of fitness.

I’m confused or maybe surprised that not a single media outlet who speculated that trump’s blanket pardon of Jan 6 criminals was purely his laziness. There, I said it.

Great listen. Thx as always @hcrichardson.bsky.social @karaswisher.bsky.social & @preetbharara.bsky.social

Eggs aren’t expensive because of DEI. Eggs aren’t expensive because of inspectors general. Eggs aren’t even expensive because of immigration. Eggs are expensive because of our animal–industrial complex, which built an American diet that demands more food than we need, which creates dangerous…

Dangerous is not a strong enough word for this administration and all that will come out of it.

Trump is the fullest expression of capitalism  His orientation is & will be transactional, not soulful. Soulfulness isn’t a core tenant of American colonialism In understanding that we are a transactional, consumer based culture, his coming into power shouldn’t be surprising

Duh

Theocrats - bullies aiming to force you to submit Technocrats - bullies aiming to force you to acquiesce Conservative politics - bullies aiming to oppress Individual autonomy & agency is threatening for bullies We are in a bully state, freedom is in direct conflict w/ punishing regimes

In 4 years @aoc.bsky.social will be 39, she can run for president. People aren’t perfect, but I align with most of her values and ideology
