I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files. But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

This, 💯%. And it's not merely messaging—it's just simple, discernible fact. The best messaging is messaging that reminds people of what is true and known to be true. The entire 2024 presidential campaign should have been about this.

All of this chaos because 🍊💩 and his minions know how much we, the American people hate what they are doing to this country. The only way he isn’t getting crushed in Midterms is to cheat. Tmurp and Texas moved first. Now California must act. On Nov 4, voters choose our maps.

“Fuck them kids.” That’s literally what an ICE agent said when ICE, the FBI et al. raided an apartment in Chicago, including with a Blackhawk helicopter, separated children from their parents, and zip-tied them to each other.

Listen, the sooner you get on board with accepting that we're going to have to do a full tear down and rebuild of the federal government, the easier it is to deal with the daily shit show. There's no going back to the way things were. That life is gone. Start thinking of how the next part will look.

Jane Goodall, the gentle disrupter whose research on chimpanzees redefined what it meant to be human
Anyone proposing to offer a master class on changing the world for the better, without becoming negative, cynical, angry or narrow-minded in the process, could model their advice on the life and work of pioneering animal behaviour scholar Jane Goodall.
