Howdy! Quick update: I found a cyclical role with a Democratic mail firm! Excited to learn new things and help find voters across the US. I won’t get paid until the 2nd week of June. If you can spare a few bucks, it’ll help cover some more bills until I’m fully back. Thank you! gofund.me/16f5a20d2

Life is pretty shitty right now, but it could be worse. Grateful for the food I have, an apartment I haven’t been kicked out of yet, great friends who paid my MASSIVE power bill, A/C and WiFi, a cell phone, Char & Ferg, occasional drinks and cheap BWay tickets. Here’s hoping things get better soon

I really just want to know (actually I don’t) - what about his first term made non Gen Z adults believe that trump would be a job creator, job protector, friend of unions, and builder of the middle class? Do you all have Covid induced amnesia with a dash of euphoric delusion?

On Saturday Trump abducted a legal US resident w/o a warrant because he peacefully protested. His wife is a US citizen, is 8 mo pregnant, & neither she, nor his lawyer know where he is. This Is Fascism. Sign the petition, call your Rep to demand Khalil's release www.qasimrashid.com/p/ice-abduct...

Your 401(k) just took another beating today. It’s been a hell of a few days, hasn’t it? You’ve lost so much money. Investments down, inflation up. And there’s one reason for that: Donald Trump’s policies suck and they cost *YOU* money!

Do we think Elon has a little button he can push to toggle or kill twitter when an unflattering, criminal, economy crashing type story is about to break? Because whenever twitter crashes - sure the incompetence is a big factor but I don’t trust Elon in the era of criminalized dissent either.

Hi @apnews.com - it’s the Gulf of Mexico and no amount of nationalist nonsense from trump and his cronies will change that. Stand up to him, sensible people are begging you.

Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1.bsky.social · 2y ago

FLAG. The Associated Press says the Trump White House gave them an ultimatum: Align its editorial standards with Trump's executive order on the "Gulf of America" or be barred from an event in the Oval Office. This afternoon, an AP reporter was blocked from an executive order signing.

What the president has tried to do in the last 24 hours is illegal. His actions threatened millions of Illinoisans' access to health care, food, and even fuel to heat their homes. I will stay vigilant in defense of IL because if you come for my people, you come through me.

THIS (some of) IS WHAT CLERGY ARE TO DO NOW (video at link) You don't cozy up to power You speak prophetic truth to those who have power when you have the mic You use your voice and position to demand moral reckoning, safety, care, love, protection. YOU. TAKE. RISKS. It's your damn job.

Braedon: I come from a nation that believed in fascist ideology for a while. And we don’t want to go to that again. We are close to it because people want to simplify complex problems. The essence of fascism is to simplify complex problems and feed people who don't have time to read some bullshit.

You gotta love how lefties will go “Admit it neolib! Bidenomics failed!” and Bidenomics is just, like, having extremely low unemployment, low-income wage growth, and falling inflation, with tons of bargaining power for workers and rapidly increasing consumption.

I keep thinking about this. Even their version of “victory” is bitter and violent. American masculinity obsesses over the idea of “sore losers” but it turns out, it’s the “lethal winners” you gotta worry about. AND! Most democrats are still gonna call them “my friends across the aisle.” A mess.

Okay, people using “casted” instead of “cast” is legit terrible but can we all agree that saying someone “pleaded” guilty/not guilty/no contest sounds dumb as hell???? Even though it’s correct I hate it!
