I’d like to cancel my free trial of 2026. I’ve seen enough to know this isn’t working out. Please do not auto-renew.

I know one day most of us will be looking at this time in the rearview mirror, but right now I’m looking down the barrel of three years that each promise to be worse than the last, after the shit-ass year we’ve just had, and I just have a hard time even understanding what that looks like.

You should follow the David Graeber Institute (he wrote some good books too). And I’ve been saying this for a long time. Change does not come from above. They like to take credit for the things people win in the streets. But change does not come from above.

One thing today has shown is that ordinary people who are politically active protesting their Govt, they are far braver than any of the career politicians running the Govt. And frankly without such brave people, we would not even have the limited rights that we do have.

it is the policy of this government to treat democratic-led states as conquered territories and the people therein as something like hostiles or even enemy combatants

I hate to break it to you, but heavily-armed government militias are roaming unchecked through US cities and shooting human rights observers dead in the streets. That's happening in our country.

$12.7 billion in lost labor alone in only one year. And those costs will rise each year as more and more people develop long COVID.

Long COVID does not follow a single pattern. Symptoms can vary widely in type, severity, and duration, sometimes even within the same person over time. Read the full article written by Marisa Swanson at whn.global/expert/maris.... #LongCOVID #COVID #COVID19 #PublicHealth #InfectionPrevention

Covid causes immune dysregulation which makes you more susceptible to other pathogens. We’ve let it rip for years, & now we’re seeing record levels of other communicable diseases. Taking away vaccines will only make this worse. Please wear a mask in indoor settings to protect yourself and others.😷

"From October 2023 to September 2024, there were [in the US] an estimated 33.0 million COVID-19–associated illnesses, 7.7 million outpatient visits, 879 100 hospitalizations, and 100 800 deaths." The pandemic didn't end in 2022 jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

Hellscape Reminder if you are now having trouble doing the normal things you do every day please check to see if the air quality in your area is not great if you have an unexplained headache/ your eyes are itchy/ your voice sounds hoarse check if today is a bad air day because we have those now

NAILED IT.

“No room at the Inn” is a biblical reference about immigrants (Jesus’ parents) being turned away. Not the government. Way to go, Hilton! The 3rd Amendment protects private entities from having to house the government.

“Covid is over” might be the biggest lie sold to us in a staggering decade of lies

COVID killed >100,000 people per year over the course of 2023 and 2024 in the US alone. The level of indifference to this massive annual toll among both the public and the majority of my public health colleagues is stunning. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

The highest rate on record. It staggers me that no-one in public health seems to be acknowledging that immune dysregulation caused by prior SARS-CoV-2 infection is likely a significant factor in this, and the implications of this concept going forward. abcnews.go.com/Health/flu-a...

This years flu has a little bubonic plague in it

I can't remember who said it and where I saw it but it was something to the effect of "colds and flu haven't gotten stronger, but repeated COVID just made your immune system weaker." I think about that a lot. Especially for folks with long covid.

Flu is extremely bad right now. www.cdc.gov/fluview/surv...

I would like a real president now. You know, a sane, intelligent, emotionally mature grownup who wants to serve the country and isn’t out for financial and political gain. Why does that seem impossible?

My readership now shrinks with every piece I publish. You don’t need to know much about the newsletter business to see how that math doesn’t work. Not sure yet how to handle this. For now, I’ll just ask you to consider supporting Democracy Americana in whichever way you see fit:

The cemetery I worked at for 7 years had 2 1917 Flu SECTIONS. Row after row of people killed by that strain. For 17 years it ran roughshod through Milwaukee. Mask up & get vaccinated.

I don’t know exactly what I’m looking for in a politician but not having every day be a nightmare of horrors would be pretty high up so someone should run on that

Where the hell is the Justice League? The Marvel heroes? The Avengers? Anyone?

Members of Congress: stop posting online and APPEAR, PHYSICALLY on the steps of the Capitol to decry this unconstitutional violation of domestic & international law. SHOW THE PEOPLE the level of danger we are facing as a country. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social

Completely agree. Always pull these threads back to the Reagan Administration and Bush I.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

More reaction to Maduro’s “arrest”

Remember that there is a legitimately elected president of Venezuela: Edmundo Gonzalez. He won the election in 2024.

Cancer research costs too much but we have the money to run Venezuela

It isn't about combating "narcoterrorism", but about the US securing access to Venezuelan oil, lithium, and other natural resources. It isn't about promoting democracy, but about the US imposing its hegemony in the Western Hemisphere. Brute force and extractivism—nothing else. #Venezuela

Food shopping early am when another shopper approached and asked “Are you wearing a mask because you‘re sick or because you don’t want to get sick?” Told him “because I don’t want to get sick.” He took a procedure mask from his pocket and said “I have mine here, I think I’m gonna put it on.” 🙂

For 50 years, the median wage of hourly workers stagnated or declined while the stock market and CEO pay skyrocketed. Is it any wonder why so many feel abandoned by the system? People lose faith, and a demagogue fills the void. This is why we must fix the system.

im not joking, i think a huge reason theyre doing this is bc in their minds war is masculine and penis and being against war is feminine and vagina
