Time for @karaswisher.bsky.social to activate. Lasso five of the 10K media relationships you have and get this done. Pry the paper from Bezos's hands or expose why he's holding on.

Today's reminder that MAGA hates you and wants you dead, and they will use any argument to achieve their goal.

Facts? No no no. That doesn't work for them.

Elon Musk has a rotten cantaloupe for brains, as do his sycophant followers.

Moon City = 🚫
Mars City = 🚫

5 years, 7 years, 10 years, 20 years. Pick a year, any year.

WTF is a "self-growing" city anyhow?

Don't do drugs.

Trump text to Hegseth:

We need this now. Time to change the context.

• Reject people who wear a suit and tie. This is the uniform of your killers.

• Reject the concept of "deals". Not everything has to be a business transaction ffs.

• Demand clear language. Enough politics-speak. Vote for intelligent vocabularies.

What does the absolutely useless @timwalzparody.bsky.social have to say about his state police today? How about @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social? Lots of media appearances, not a lot of action.

I'd like to heat my house this weekend with all these Noam Chomsky books, but I'm too sad.

The mic grab is the signal we needed. There will not be any policy changes coming out a Republican House, zero. It's Trump all the way to the bottom with this crew.
Oldham County GOP cuts the mic on Thomas Massie.

“I am a congressman. I don’t work for the Speaker of the House, I work for you.”

Whatever you think of Massie, this moment explains why his own party despises him.

I hope social psychologists and educators use this example to explain the concept of self-selecting groups.

Trump and Republicans cannot be trusted to keep their word. Agreements need to have enforcable not hopeful.
With just 10 days to negotiate, a DHS shutdown appears inevitable
Democrats and Republicans can barely decide on who should be negotiating — let alone how to agree on immigration enforcement.

Tim Scott is the pinnacle example of a person desiring power above all else, including their own sense of self-worth.

"Hey, the guy who enables me to have power also thinks I'm inhuman because of my race is super fine with me. Yeah, sometimes he's a knucklehead. No problem. Vote Scott 2028!"
It’s so bad even Tim Scott isn’t afraid to criticize it.

I watched Larry Bird win 3 championships in the 80s. This has that same breathlessly happy feeling.

I like what I see here, crypto bros... you can't trust it. Buy gold. C'mon unload, guys. Short it. Short hard. HARD!

So a guy with no university degree and a broken penis somehow becomes extraordinarily wealthy, then abuses thousands of women along with his other wealthy perv buddies, and this breaks the political world so America has renounced its place in global society and business.

Got it. We are so fucked.

I get that winning a Nobel Peace Prize is a big deal for a person or an organization. But until the peace prize bribe is no longer hanging in the White House, new winners should decline.

Trump has rendered it meaningless.

Quick reminder: all Republicans are racist freaks.

The region, comprised largely of conservative and pro-Trump rural communities, continues to suffer from unsafe drinking water contaminated by salt, uranium, and radiation.

Poison water is fine, just not here in the white people's haven.

Every day the Republicans and Trump still remain in power with no accountability from MAGA supporters is another opportunity to shun and push these people away from civil society.

Make people choose.

MAGA or working here. MAGA or part of my life. MAGA or part this community.

There is no downside.
