Empathy + Action = A Better World Thank you, Jane Goodall

Barbra Streisand is joining Jane Fonda and 600+ entertainment figures in re-launching the Committee for the First Amendment. Fonda announced the revival of the organization, initially founded by her father, Henry Fonda. The organization was founded in the 1940s to defend free speech against fascism.

What a disgusting display. 😒 www.huffpost.com/entry/hegset...

Once, I argued at this one person who insisted that "North Korea is a strong nation because it has nuclear weapons." When I pointed out that any nation can afford a nuclear arsenal by not feeding or caring for its citizens, said person accused me of being an idiot victimized by western propaganda.

Oh nothing just the president reposting “Qanon76”

“It actually doesn’t take much to be considered a difficult woman. That’s why there are so many of us.” ― Jane Goodall 💙 RIP to a real one. My childhood hero

“The surprise job loss in September is the latest sign that the labor market is weakening. Job growth has slowed to a trickle this year…” www.wsj.com/economy/jobs...

Release the Epstein Files.

JUST IN: Jane Goodall, primatologist who transformed our understanding of the lives of apes, has died, according to an announcement from the Jane Goodall Institute.

Easily, his most elaborate and destructive distraction from #TheEPSEIN_Files... yet.

A government run by billionaires is not “for the people”. It’s for billionaires. It’s why they’re getting billions in subsidies, tax breaks and government contracts. Meanwhile, working class Americans are losing their jobs and healthcare.

No lie detected.

Of all the best and kindest humans to ever live, Jane Goodall is near the top of my list. Rest in Peace, you beautiful soul. On behalf of the earth, I thank you www.nytimes.com/2025/10/01/o...

what does an "unconstitutional DEI principle" mean in the context of a tunnel project? what, a black person is going to use it?

File this under “essential function.” 🤡 #Shutdown abcnews.go.com/Politics/liv...

I spotted a difference between Donald Trump and his audience yesterday:

In the history of mealymouthed disingenuousness in American politics, few have come even close to this annoying puritanical pixie.

Q: You said you're interested in good faith negotiations, but is it helpful to post pictures of Leader Jeffries in a sombrero if you're trying to have good faith talks? JD VANCE: Oh! I think it's funny! The president is joking and we're having a good time.

Just yesterday Trump promised to spend a record $1 trillion on the military — roughly half of which will go to private defense contractors that price-gouge the government. Remember this when Trump or Republicans talk about "sacrifices" that need to be made during a shutdown.

Many people are saying that U.S. farmers have formed a caravan of John Deere tractors and headed to Argentina for relief.

Donald Trump shut down the government because he doesn't want you to have healthcare. But this isn’t just on him. Democrats MUST use their leverage to protect our rights, but it can’t end there. Schumer and Jeffries can’t just go on TV or write letters, they need clear demands. We need action now.

Q: How did the White House decide it was appropriate for Jared Kushner to be working on matters that involve Qatar, the UAE, Saudi Arabia -- 3 countries combined that have given him more than $2.5b LEAVITT: It's frankly despicable that you're trying to suggest that it's inappropriate

Jane Goodall, ethologist and conservationist, has died. She was 91

GOP lies are coming fast now. They didn't have a clean funding bill; they refused to keep government open unless $90 million in our cash was released for *their* security details. Dems said no, we're not putting ourselves first, we're putting the working class's healthcare—which Trump trashed—first.

Sure, the federal government is shut down, but…at least we are planning to bail out Argentina. “America First,” my ass.

Rest in peace, Jane Goodall. You taught us that kindness is a form of strength and that respect for life in all its forms is the truest measure of humanity. You will be dearly missed.

Raskin: "It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not swear in our new colleague, Ms Grijalva from Arizona, who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files and to put a vote on that on the House floor."

Next time you find yourself in a discussion about the differences between liberals, leftists, democratic socialists, moderates, progressives, and never trumpers, remember: billionaires don't give a fuck. We're all the same to them: human capitol stock. And they love it when we fight each other.

🤨🤨🤨

If you haven't yet read 1984, l'd say now's the time. 🙂

😥😥😥

How is this sustainable?

What a line from the Pope! I am so pleased he is carrying on Pope Francis’ advocacy for immigrants.

Important Day.🧡 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

COLLINS: So you're telling me you're willing to vote no every time? BERNIE SANDERS: Damn right

HEY CORPORATE MEDIA, Say it with me. Your headline is REPUBLICAN CONGRESS FAILS TO FUND GOVERNMENT: SHUTDOWN IMMINENT Let me know if you need any help with this

🧡🧡🧡 #TruthandReconciliation

If Trump had become president 20 years earlier, Epstein would have been in his cabinet.
