Six congressmen bought between $83,000 to $245,000 in SpaceX stock just before its IPO: -Jared Moskowitz -Gil Cisneros -Dan Meuser -John McGuire -William Timmons -John James Five serve on committees whose work impacts SpaceX's business. We must ban members of Congress from trading stock.
France calls out the U.S. at a UN meeting: “The US used to be a beacon of human rights. Not anymore. Today, it stands alongside North Korea, Nicaragua, Mali and Russia. Isolated. And the world no longer listens to it.” U.S. representatives stormed out of the meeting. Well said France! 👏🏼🇫🇷👏🏼
Every Canadian should be able to see our national parks. That’s why we made them free to visit all summer — with the Canada Strong Pass.
SpaceX and Tesla are basically copying Enron at this point. Economists realize that, right?
Orange Turd in Oval Office violates the Constitution and multiple laws every day. His private military aka ICE kills innocent people with zero consequences. If it walks like a duck and talks like a dictator it can only be one thing
Billionaires being unafraid to say things like this publicly is a major indicator of how bad things have gotten
Rachel Gilmore@rachelgilmore.bsky.social · last wk.Very cool that Shopify’s CEO thinks the poor should have far less of a vote than the rich. Still worth that ad read money, folks?
Elon has been melting down and raging nonstop since his interview with The Economist and Chef Andres is one of the best and kindest humans on planet earth.
Ossoff: "Each day his allies are fewer & even they no longer deny his corruption, the obscene self-dealing while he plunges nation deeper into reckless war while he rakes in billions & builds himself ballroom & prepares again to attack elections. Let's be clear, one man attempted fraud in GA: Trump"
The legacy media is reconsidering the White House Correspondence dinner because Trump insulted them. What they don't get is that they insulted their viewers and readers by attending in the first place. Support independent media that doesn't suck up to Trump whether he is nice to them or not.
Jeffries: We're going to crack down on corrupt price gouging. We're going to clean up the mess at the United States Supreme Court. And we're going to ban the president, vice president, and members of Congress from trading stocks. We have 100 days, America.
Elias Law Group is currently litigating 82 voting and election lawsuits in 39 states plus D.C. Here are the states with the most cases: Georgia 9 Florida 6 Louisiana 5 Arizona 4 When we fight we win!
Nope. He shouldn’t even be allowed on the ballot. Ineligible means ineligible. Don’t entertain any of this absolutely criminal, unconstitutional nonsense. Full stop. 🛑
As usual. GOP accusations are actually confessions.
It's not a disagreement about politics. Itr's a morality/decency thing.
Oh well, it seems that *some* people have not been distracted.
Iran still blocking Strait of Hormuz. A ship trying to run the strait this weekend hit a sea mine and blew up. US still blockading Iranian shipping. Houthi-Saudi escalation disrupting Red Sea exports. Ukraine hit more Russian oil facilities. Oil prices fell and stocks rose on the news.
A Polish-born woman in Des Plaines who “had done everything right” has been in ICE custody for the past year. Green Card for 20 years, sought citizenship. “And it didn’t matter.” www.chicagotribune.com/2026/07/27/i...
Illinois woman with green card has been detained by ICE for 12 months. Her daughters plead for her release.
ICE arrested Beata Siemionkowicz, a Poland native and green card holder of more than two decades, last year while she was gardening in her daughter’s backyard in Des Plaines.

Trump is making a nuclear deal with Saudi, the people responsible for 9/11, but people are worried about Mamdani
We’re pushing a month since Elon Musk was quoting from The Turner Diaries, and every single mainstream news and political figure has maintained an active account on his platform, enriching him.
Sunder Katwala (sundersays)@sundersays.bsky.social · last mo.X owner Elon Musk indicates he would prioritise political violence (assassination of pro-migration politicians is the common sense meaning) over violence against "invaders" (refugees, asylum seekers, maybe ethnic minorities generally) while endorsing call for violence (killing) against both groups
Another reminder, since no one in Congress appears to care: These strikes are a campaign of unlawful murders, and the Administration hasn't offered any plausible argument to the contrary. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2026/0...
67 boat strikes. 221 dead. The cocaine hasn’t slowed, officials report.
The president says Operation Southern Spear has virtually ended drug trafficking by sea. Pentagon and DEA analysts have concluded otherwise.

Just making a thread of #TechFailures, because I'm seeing a lot of them these days. Not the big obvious stuff, but the everyday garbage I have to deal with, ranging from annoying to incredibly disruptive. Yesterday and today: Dropbox on my Mac changed all my files to online-only. Without my asking.
