Be better!!

Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft are all planning huge layoffs. Amazon got $17.5B in federal tax breaks last year. Jeff Bezos is worth $271B. Meta saved $13.7B in taxes. Mark Zuckerberg is worth $231B. Microsoft saved $12.5B last year. Its CEO is worth $1.3B. This is what a rigged economy looks like.

With all the commercialization of this holiday, sometimes it's easy to forget the reason for it. This man had a vision of a better future for all of us. So when you're having your salmon and singing "Magic Carpet Ride", please remember Zefram Cochrane and all he did for us. Happy First Contact Day

So many well wishes they couldn't fit in one video!

Despite the danger of sea mines, experts say that mine clearing has received minimal attention and funding from the U.S. Navy — and it's often overshadowed by more high-profile weapons systems.

Today, I'm introducing my wealth tax — and more than 50 members of Congress are joining me. It’s time for the government to start working for American families, not just the ultra-rich.

When Worf’s long lost brother joins the Klingon-Starfleet Cultural Exchange Program, Worf’s family honor is put on trial. But when a surprise witness threatens to reveal the truth, Worf must consider accepting dishonor to protect a more influential & powerful family. Listen @ humanisttrek.com/03x67

Remember: The richest 1% evade roughly $160 billion in taxes every year. That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare. Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

This is when we organize a mass letter writing campaign, right? So much more to say, later.

Well, Starfleet Academy had an amazing run and I will never stop talking about it. Year One should never have been green-lit and Academy should have gone on for 7 seasons.
