I’ve been many people, done many things. Besides my 30+ yr marriage to Carlton, most proud to have volunteered with the #OneInTeen #LGBTQ youth group in Nashville for 20 yrs. Was also part of #GeeksResist #DemCast prior to being banned from Musk’s Twitter.
ICE IS KILLING PEOPLE IN THE SHADOWS. Prisciliano Trejo Ricano begged for a doctor. He became the 50th person to die in ICE custody. Anne Frank wasn’t shot; she died of neglect in a camp. ICE uses the same playbook: murder by medical neglect. ICE DETENTION CENTERS ARE DEATH CAMPS.
this ROCKS lmao just throwing it out there but would anyone wanna do something similar in chicago with Kapow after primaries maybe 👀

The destruction of the American Dream isn’t just an abstraction; it’s measurable. In 1980 when Reagan was elected president, at the peak of the American Dream, fully two-thirds of American families were in the middle class. hartmannreport.com/p/chapter-9-...

It took Moreno days to stand up for his child and grandchild. Daaays. Republicans are trash.
Ody@odeecs.bsky.social · 3d agoBernie Moreno isn't speaking out because he's suddenly an attentive father. Bernie Moreno is speaking out because his complicity in Max Miller's domestic abuse is no longer politically advantageous.
Secretary Kennedy, you don't needs science degree to read a CDC report. Measles was eliminated in the US in 2000, the virus hasn't mutated. More than 90% of confirmed cases were unvaccinated. That's not mutation problem, that's a policy and messaging failure, and that's on you.
Greece is burning. Spain is burning. Sicily, Wales, Türkiye, Canada, the US— the entire planet is engulfed in flames. Decades of warnings ignored. Decades of corporate denial exposed. The science was right all along: our home is on fire. We need immediate, radical climate action.
Capital One just told a court they shut down hundreds of tRump Organization accounts because an anti-money laundering review found suspicious transaction patterns. Not “woke politics.” Actual banking red flags. finance.yahoo.com/markets/curr...

When it comes to Trump’s money laundering, this is just the tip of the iceberg. The Trump Soho laundered Russian mob money. Trump Panama laundered drug cartel money. Trump Azerbaijan laundered Iranian Revolutionary Guard money. Florida real estate was used to launder Russian oligarch money.
MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com · 4d ago🚨 NEWS: In a new court filing, Capital One says Donald Trump’s accounts were closed in 2021 after months of analysis by its anti-money laundering (AML) professionals, not because of politics, as Trump has long claimed. 1/
There are many reasons to call Trump a monster, and the one we should cite the most is unfortunately the one cited least: his War on the Poor, which coincides with his unprecedented graft to help himself and his rich friends. This is what evil looks like.

Millions of Americans struggle in sometimes unimaginable ways, and Trump’s cuts in food stamps and other benefits are now making life even more precarious.

No one is asking RNC why in January 2027 Senator Tim Scott will be the only black Republican in Congress. Down from an already anemic 5 to 1. The already low number of Republican women is also shrinking. This is by design.
Musk is now back to buying elections. Campaign finance is public. Lets make this toxic to the recipients of his money. We did it with the supreme court seat in Michigan. We can do it again. These people are the enemy of civil rights, privacy, human rights & the environment.
Remember when David Hogg was running for DNC chair and the establishment stepped in and said we needed a responsible adult and then gave us Ken Martin, who throws his phone at his staffers? Also the DNC is $2 million in debt. But centrists still demand they should be in charge.
Elon Musk doesn’t know anything about Maine or the people who live there, he does know what is in his economic best interests -and- that is why he’s spending money trying to save Collins. Billionaires don’t care about anyone but themselves!

Trump claimed the power to decide who the Postal Service is allowed to mail a ballot to. Judge Indira Talwani wrote that the Constitution hands a president no authority over elections at all. That's held up twice now. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-surr...
I love this. Every blue state should be doing everything in its power to max out the vote.

“government of the people, by the people, for the people” is at risk—through gerrymandering, GOP political corruption, the fiction large sums of secret money = protected free speech! Your & my votes/participation/activism in this year’s elections is the most critical factor in fixing these problems.
Pete Buttigieg@petebuttigieg.bsky.social · 4d agoGerrymandering lets politicians choose their voters instead of the other way around. Until we end that, it will remain difficult to achieve the things most Americans already agree on.
#VotingMatters #YourVote = #YourVoice = #YourFuture No one should be sitting on sidelines for this year’s elections — Your Vote & Your Actions is what will save America!

Many people are alive today because of the COVID vaccine — to imply otherwise is a dangerous lie!
