Completely randomly, I just ran across this on Youtube. Produced by the "More Perfect Union" project, it seems to be a good introduction to the network state movement. youtu.be/6iLf2h_fo-w?...

I'm hoping all the people out there talking about the reflecting pool realize what is going on with Big Techs American take over and that it is not really about incompetence it is about taking all of Americas wealth and giving a green light to the wealthy and anti-democratic to do whatever they want

America defeated fascism. We don’t need its aesthetics decorating the White House.

This is Keir Starmer's legacy.

This corrupt court, despite a few OK rulings, makes me want to read Melissa Murray's annotated Constitution even more. #maddow theliteratelizard.com/book/9781668...

The 'faces of MSNOW' called military in DC streets a political winner. It's a position one would expect coming from millionaire cable TV news anchors represented by Ari Emanuel, who controls UFC who put on the 'mess' at the White House. #maddow

#Maddow Reality Check Break

Every single day, thousands of posts so nobody misses anything about how Trump, Tech Companies, Oil, un-healthcare middlemen, gamblers, porn lords, cops, and politicians are burning down the house and how we should never ever let this be possible again. Make America Care Again!

Wow -- Warren Buffet's turned a very cold shoulder to Bill Gates and his foundation over his Epstein connection. He's put a hold on his annual contribution and conducting a review of the foundation. #Maddow #LastWord www.wsj.com/business/war...

#maddow Harry always knew best. You couldn't pull the wool over his eyes. Show me a man that gets rich by being a politician, and I'll show you a crook. – Harry Truman

Steve Rattner Trump’s net worth has nearly tripled in his second term, reaching $6.5 billion. His administration is the most brazenly self-enriching in American history. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

“If you zoom in on the guitarist’s sunglasses you can see a crowd of less than a dozen people… the organizers appear to have recently deleted that image.” 😬 🕶️

Happy 4th of July, do you have to work a stupid 4th of July parade so people who just want to party can party. This is not the country I thought it was. The best and the brightest are all trying to get rich and break things and nobody seems to know what they are feeling is the consequences.

One justice also received free concert tickets from Bad Bunny’s record label.

How do we fix Social Security? If we lifted the payroll tax cap to ensure everyone pays their fair share, Social Security would be solvent for decades. Elon Musk just became the world’s first trillionaire, but he pays the same into social security that a teacher does. Pay your fair share.

If he dreams it they give it to him. He posted either because he wants it or he is trolling the American people because he knows we do not want him redecorating the capital in his own tacky image.

The War on Women is being waged more ferociously than ever. And men have a lot to lose by not supporting women against these psycho lunatics. If you're a woman who's anti-choice because you're too stupid to understand biology and crisis situations, shame on you and get educated. #ProtectWomen 🌊

The craziest thing about this is that the supposed justification was that the men here raped a white woman. Meanwhile, the star of the film, Armie Hammer, was credibly accused of rape by his ex girlfriend, a white woman. The irony here is lost on the right.

Polaroid ad in at Coney Island.....

My daughter mentioned my dear friend Hisashi this morning, gone more than 20 years. Instead of being interned he went to Italy with the army. On the train to boot camp they stopped in Texas. His sergeant reprimanded him for drinking from the Colored drinking fountain. He said, "They say I'm yellow"

Jared Kushner wants Albania's protected wetlands. The government obliged. Protesters said no. 29 days later, they're still saying no — with flamingo cutouts and flags, in the streets, every single night. Europe is watching. Is anyone else?

For someone administering insurance, Dr. Oz's statement is INSANE. If you want a financially viable pool of folks on an insurance plan, you want MOST people not to use the policy most years so the group's premiums can cover the disasters. Just like you want most folks w auto insurance not to crash.

So let's use "Dr" Oz's reasoning and apply it to car insurance. I buy car insurance every year. I try to drive safely every time I get behind the wheel and thus do not get into accidents. I have not used my car insurance in 20+ years...is that fraud????

Remember when Sarah Palin said Obama wanted death panels in the ACA because people wanted to promote end-of-life discussions between doctors and patients? Here's @mayagoldman.bsky.social on CMS's effort under Dr. Oz to push hospitals to have end-of-life discussions with patients.

HEY OPRAH NICE JOB GIVING THE COUNTRY DR. OZ AND DR. PHIL! CAN WE HAVE A REFUND ON OUR TIME!

AOC: “The problem is that these big companies think they are governments – they want to be governments. They want to have totally unchecked power I believe that we need to pursue antitrust. We need to break up a lot of these companies that are far too big - & we need consumer protections for ppl”

People who can barely afford food or rent are stuck paying a trillionaires bills. Fuck that.

Unfortunately, politicians and sports broadcasters keep convincing gullible citizens that stadium deals are economic drivers for the region. We keep getting scammed. www.currentaffairs.org/news/taxpaye...

NEW: It has been 118 years since the Supreme Court ruled the federal government owes tribes water, but Native American communities in northern Arizona are still fighting for their rights to the Colorado River. With @kjzz.org

You mean a 34 felony, tax cheat, sex pest with dementia should step down? I agree.

I hate this guy! I really do. Today Jake Lang showed up in Los Angeles to prove his racism against black people at the BET awards. Jake Lang is a domestic terrorist who deserves this treatment. Good job Los Angeles. WTF was he thinking? Get your punk ass out of here!

Is anybody ever going to tell these people how the people who can not afford health insurance use it to keep from being homeless if they get sick rather than to get regular check ups at a cost they can barely afford. Because this guy is an idiot who does not know the population he is hired to serve.

More ceremonial whining from the guy who is supposed to be doing the job we entrusted to his office, which was not having a Propaganda Fair for removing all Federal responsibilities to distributing our tax dollars in order to spend it on vanity projects.

If Trump is celebrating it, it is going to harm you. Unless you are a billionaire, but your probably are not. SCOTUS is now an illegitimate tool of the White House tyrant.

Copy Cat 😺

Another one: In January, a guy wrote an angry (but non-threatening) letter to former ICE chief Todd Lyons after the Good, Pretti killings. Last week, ICE agents tracked him down at the NYC hotel where he and his daughter were staying after returning from a vacation in Finland.

Good luck America, you are being led by the unqualified into the unknown consequences of their actions.

This is giving me traumatic flashbacks to the hot dog eating contest at my high school where the weird guy that was winning while downing rootbeers hit his limit.

Why does Fox News act like Lex Luthor, fictional character, owns them? #supergirl

This is like Burning Man for people that need more propaganda in their lives.

Jim Acosta scours the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool looking for Trump's 350 foot long slash and can't find a trace of it. Fox News launches a vendetta against him for daring to question the word of Fearless Leader. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

The amount of ways this administration and their enablers can ruin a national celebration know no bounds. Authoritarianism and corporate welfare never takes a holiday.

listen, Jon Ossoff may be young, smart, charismatic, a senator soon to be twice elected from a key swing state, ideologically acceptable to almost the entire Democratic coalition, and popular, but... wait where's the negative again bsky.app/profile/atru...

John Roberts is the most shrewd Republican operator working for big business in this country. The Court issued the decisions on mail ballots and Cook knowing they will set Trump off (occupying the gullible political press) while giving Big Business the real gift by weakening regulatory agencies.

John Roberts has proven again and again that he will allow Trump to disrupt anything in America as he pleases so long as he doesn’t mess with the Epstein Class’ wealth. Roberts is intellectually corrupt and morally bankrupt. Stare Decisis is dead and buried. The next Dem must pack the Court.
