donald trump is not simply a child rapist. He is an equal opportunity rapist/racist who only requires white skin on his victims. But control is his thing, and that's easier with children. Sick.

It's not that complicated. USA has only two viable political parties If you wanted to cripple US credibility and align it with the World Authoritarian aXis, you take over the party most susceptible to corruption and install a greedy, small-minded and manipulatable little toad. Who would want that?🤔

By now, most people are still struggling with a craving for normality and redemption in our country without seeing that our chance to be a force for good in the world has been squandered. America is a recidivist country, and whatever comes between now and the next Enlightenment is already underway.

"No business which depends for existence on paying less than living wages to its workers has any right to continue in this country. By living wages I mean more than a bare subsistence level - I mean the wages of decent living." .. (Franklin. D. Roosevelt) ..(cartoon Nick Anderson)

I generally like @usafacts.org, but I'm can't stand them representing our issues with Social Security fund solvency like this..."One reason for the potential depletion? Shifting age demographics." instead of "Outdated tax policy favoring the rich is breaking Social Security.".

Senator Patty Murray talks about 5 things that she thinks are ABSOLUTELY worth the money. Agree?

“When we all come together we can show Pete Hegseth what true patriotism looks like.” @elizabethforvirginia — a captain/tank commander in the army — is running for Congress in Virginia to go stand up to Hegseth, who said women shouldn’t be in combat roles.

I have more respect for this lady than ANY elected Republicans in office at the federal level.

@ejeancarroll.bsky.social: "I don't understand how people can be afraid of a fat elderly man who wears apricot makeup, his hair done up like Tippi Hedren in The Birds and sits in a court room and moans and groans and complains”

I hope there is a committed organization or individual who is actively investigating the improbable circumstances surrounding the Butler, PA assassination attempt. I'm not a conspiracist, but logic and intuition make me believe it has a damning backstory.

@booker.senate.gov why did your name show up in the records of Peter Theil's Dialog group? A super secret, super exclusive club of billionaires mixed with those who aspire to be. Are you a member, and if so, why? Does your association with the Dialog group help your constituents, and if so how?

Can anyone explain why I get random accounts blocking me? I never 'know' these accounts, and frankly, I don't care. I get this about once a day. Does anybody else get this, and if so, can you explain why?

EMERGENCY PROCLAMATION: All hotels that choose to put squeeze bottles of shampoo, soap, etc. in showers must label them in 25 point Times New Roman. Showering in an unfamiliar bathroom with your glasses on the bedside table and labels in 5 point script does not work. Understand the user experience.

Don't fall for the Republican gaslighting that the only way to save social programs is by cutting them. We have to grow the tax base by taxing the mega-rich at a rate that respects their investments while also respecting the labor of those who built their wealth.
