It’s important - vitally important - to remember that Trump does not care about anything or anyone other his momentary fixations. No hyperbole. As a psychopath his brain physically lacks the connections to care. His cult falls for the show because it gratifies their prejudices and appetites.

@jamestalarico.bsky.social for Texas US Senate gets it - under his opponent Ken Paxton and Gov. Abbott, data centers are running amok in TX. Talarico has a sensible plan to regulate data centers. Texas, he is the right choice for your next senator, not the corrupt, 15 home owning Paxton.

A new Senate investigation says JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank and Bank of America processed massive sums tied to Jeffrey Epstein despite glaring red flags. Powerful institutions helped keep his operation running and every one of them must be held accountable. Follow the money, release everything.

They need to hammer down relentlessly on this. They can't become overconfident, like they did with Hillary in 2016.

This hasn’t gotten much attention, but it should. While everyone was focused on Schedule F, the administration created something even broader. On July 30, a new OPM rule took effect that creates a second way to fire federal employees outside the normal civil service process.

11 years ago today, Ken Paxton surrendered at the Collin County Jail on felony securities fraud charges. This is his mugshot.

Third murder in a week. This city has a population of 38,200. The city leaders refuse to do the things that would curb the violence. Why? Because the status quo is profitable for those who don’t mind blood money. #arnews #Arkansas

Stock buybacks used to be closely regulated. It’s time to ban them outright.

Americans for Tax Fairness@4taxfairness.bsky.social · 3d ago

Apple workers could have gotten $4 MILLION each over 8 years. Instead, Apple spent $650 BILLION on stock buybacks. Shareholders got rich. Workers got nothing. This isn't investment. It's theft. Tax the rich.

Psychopaths are never wrong. Everybody knows that.

Hey @dominos-pizza.bsky.social How about you pay your drivers a living wage so they aren’t dependent on the public to makeup the lapse caused by your corporate greed. I’ve never seen a Dominos driver who looked even vaguely middle class.

Because nature abhors a vacuum, the news and social media must be filled with commentary, but Trump is fully explained by two factors: he clearly has Antisocial Personality Disorder, and he was raised in an environment of unchecked privilege. No other information is required.

I’ll say this, if there’s one thing this pill-hawking faux-Christian knows about, it’s Biblical ignorance, just not how he imagines. #arpx #arnews #Arkansas

Huckabee warns of 'biblical ignorance' as he defends conservative support for Israel

Mike Huckabee says skepticism of the U.S.-Israel relationship on the right is fueled by "biblical ignorance" and a misunderstanding of what America First means.

Most people don’t realize that many CBP agents may be “cross sworn.” This means they have been deputized by a local authority (often a county) to enforce local and state laws. At one point, I was a city cop and deputized in three counties (an inter-agency task force).

I think AOC is great. Being a realist, I also know she has just enough appeal to lose by 2%. The Dems like to nominate aspirational candidates - who are exceptionally qualified but have no real chance in a world with enough emboldened misogynists and racists to elect a monster like Trump.

Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 2w ago

Been saying AOC should run in 2028 since I saw her speak at the DNC in 2024. Every argument against it has echos of the arguments against Obama running in 2008.

I have very little respect for people who use “disrespected” as a verb. I’m aware it has been used this way for 500 years. Just because something has endured doesn’t make it good. If you can’t summon the energy to say, “I was treated with disrespect,” maybe you have it coming.

Here’s some genuine hogwash. Academia is built on evidence and probably structures, not ideology. If your views exist outside of those boundaries or you espouse ideas that intrude on the rights of others, then yes, you will be excluded. Harper is engaged in projection.

1/2 I understand why one might conclude this but it’s just not that simple. Teacher salaries should be a lot higher across the board, pre-k to grad school. As to the police, budgets need to be refocused on training and support. You can either pay for the cops you want or suffer the cops you have…

God@thegodshow.com · 2w ago

The news media thinks “defund the police” is some form of gotcha but the truth is that police budgets are way too high and teachers’ salaries are way too low.

I’ve said it for years: If your faith is so fragile that it can be damaged by public middle school, it wasn’t much to begin with. Homeschoolers are often very difficult to manage let alone teach. They aren’t properly socialized and often lack basic knowledge in a variety of areas.

I understand there are pictures for those that have a hard time reading! 😂🤣😂

Absolutely. For far too long these companies have been allowed to look the other way. Throw pawn shops in that same pile.

America could learn a thing or two about populist uprisings. First, foment one. Second, depose the Idiot Who Would Be King. Round up his kit and kin. Seize their wealth and see them meet a bitter end in a dark hole. That is the only way these people learn: real consequences and their incumbent fear.

By the same logic that says a disreputable and mediocre plumber is qualified to run DHS, I should be Secretary General of the UN.
