Mostly domestic stuff. Interesting thoughts and occasional judgements. Middle-aged, gay, white, liberal, humanist.

This is why you don’t vote for rich people. If a politician gets rich in offices it’s time to replace them.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”

The current Supreme Court has seen fit to over turn every precedent they can. I doubt they will see any reason not to overturn the 22nd amendment. Especially if you consider the originalist and textualist movement.
"Forgive me, but how in the world is this not on the front page of every American newspaper, leading every cable news show, and right smack dab in the middle of every legacy media homepage? Why are we, at Zeteo, the only folks leading with this insane story?"

👑 Trump's Third Term?
Peter Rothpletz on Donald Trump's brazen push to secure a 3rd (forever?) term, the White House's transformation into a Saddam Hussein-style palace, and the bombshell NBA gambling indictments.

So an unknown, unnamed donor is going to give $130 million dollars to turn the US Military into a mercenary force. This is not ok. #EpsteinTrumpFiles #militaryforhire
#OrangeTaco is upset that Ontario used the GOP GOAT (former?) Reagan’s words on tariffs against him. #SoSad

Chopped up and out of context? Maybe. But the original speech is also full of political double-speak. That’s the thing about double-speak, you can use it anyway you want.
Scarred for life.
ABC News pulled the satellite imagery of the White House comparing Sept. 26 to today.

I believe the only way through this is standing up, being seen, and pushing back. We currently have absolutely no front in this. We have been flanked from all sides. Our only option is long term generational change.
There is corrupt politics and then there are corrupt politics in Louisiana. Everything may be bigger in Texas, but Louisiana has a lock on Big Corruption. Congress is getting schooled right now in how corruption works from Louisiana’s finest elected officials and lobbyists too.
Where are all my tariff taxes going if not to pay down the debt? To ICE, foreign governments, domestic and foreign companies, the military, and of course OrangeBaby’s pocket.
MAGA keeps saying Trump is “saving taxpayers money” and “paying down the national debt.” If that were true, why did the U.S. national debt just surpass $38 trillion, a record high in American history?
Either ignorance truly is bliss, or Americans just love to hate.

It really sucks to think that people are starving right now and nothing concrete is being done about it. It suck’s to think that our government, our society is on the brink of major destruction. Damage that will rival the civil war and take generations to repair. #bummer
I heard on the radio yesterday that the largest hospital chain in our state will no longer offer its Medicare Advantage plan next year. They suggest patients switch back to traditional Medicare.
Family? Is that what they call stolen goods now?
This was my parents. They were 31 and 30 when they bought their house in 1979.
The average age of U.S. homebuyers is now 56, up from 49 last year.

In 1981, the year trickledown economics began, it was 31.
For a country that seems so hell bent against socialism, it seems wild to me that that US agriculture system is completely reliant on the government for everything from when to plant, what to plant, to actually breaking even.

I’d love to hear from more farmers on this. #EpsteinTrumpFiles

The government shutdown is especially tough on men, who are losing $1.00 for every 75¢ a woman loses.

I remember posting images like this long before the Child Rapist was elected the first time. Yet, here we are. America debated Fascism, and now we have it.
Let them eat ballroom. Let them eat shit. Let them eat bitcoin. Let them eat anything but food.
Trump is having his own “let them eat cake” moment while so many go without pay, he’s busy building a ballroom and tearing down the people’s house.
Nothing in Louisiana but I’d expect that.
This is just wild.
EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

I would definitely be down for the brown paper option.
This hurt to read but feels accurate.
"You can never go home again"
Took me awhile to realize home is a time, not a place.
