Dear MAGA, They told you'll be replaced by brown people. They lied. You'll be replaced by colorless AI. Against your good judgment, you voted for a convicted felon, "the savior." You were wrong. Fear does that and they know it. ...🧵

It's a conman trick. And the mark is you. You traded your future for a wall that didn't get built, a promise that only delivered to billionaires while bankrupting our nation. This ain't "America First." It's fear first, cruelty second, and you dead last. Let's hope you wake up before it's too late.

This has happened on both sides of the aisle in both houses of Article 1 and in all 3 branches of government. So far they’ve all let it slide, with a small change when Reagan was shot and Al Haig forgot we had a Vice President.

The problem is, even if there is a process, it relies on people being transparent and the senate enforcing the rules. And that is clearly not going to happen in this regime.

My quote of the day Dawn showed faintly in the east. Among the ruins, one wall stood alone. Within the wall, a last voice said, over and over again and again, even as the sun rose to shine upon the heaped rubble and steam: Today is August 5, 2026, today is August 5, 2026, today is... Ray Bradbury

Again, the financial incentives are all on the side of AI. Why would a profit-seeking AI corporation donate millions to a teachers' union? To convert teachers into AI adopters. There is no similar deep-pocket corporation giving money NOT to use AI.

Farm workers: there's a heat advisory across much of CA. Please be careful. Your life comes first. If your worksite is not offering WATER, SHADE, and REST - call the farm worker heat safety hotline at 1-877-881-8281. Reporting heat safety violations saves workers' lives.

It's wheat harvest season again in Ukraine. The people of Ukraine have proven their grit; proven that they are Europeans; and proven that they want to survive as a nation; as a people. God be with you, heroic people of Ukrainian. Slava Ukraini!/Glory to Ukraine!/¡Gloria a Ucrania!

This iconic harvest photo featuring a woman cutting grain with a sickle in an East Anglian field was taken by Brian Griffin for Depeche Mode's cover art for their 1982 album, A Broken Frame. It captured harvest season of old - and is now being used to capture the grit of the Ukrainian people.
