It seems the USA's 'manifest destiny' is to elect the very worst people among them and destroy the democracy they swore to defend.

“THEY WILL LOOK YOU DEAD IN THE FACE AND SAY,, J6 RIOTERS WITH, GUNS, POLES, BATS, ETC WERE PATRIOTS, BUT AN ER NURSE WITH, A CAMERA, AND A REGISTERED FIREARM,, WAS A "DOMESTIC TERRORIST."

Such a dilemma! #BookSky

In case anyone is under the impression that things are getting back to normal here in the U.S., yesterday 🧊 grabbed a fruit seller off the street in broad daylight in my community. This was only one of several kidnappings in the area yesterday. Don’t let the circus distract you from the ongoing harm

Ha! Supreme Court can’t get him out of this mess…

Don't care how you feel about the Iranian government, these athletes got done dirty. Really disgraceful.

There’s a reason nobody is at the 50 state fair in DC, and a reason it’s worth pointing out. Trump took over America 250, a bipartisan org that’s been around a few years planning these events, and turned this into a celebration of himself. I mean, in an opening speech they said “libtards”

the IOC is like the Giannis of corruption (perennial top-tier player, has been the best player in the world at times, high on any all-time player ranking) but FIFA is the LeBron of corruption, the GOAT and somehow continuing to produce legendary levels of corruption after all these years

He has no integrity… and he gets away with it 😡.

Remember scientists aren’t giving up. After the Trump administration redirected Climate.gov and dismissed many of the federal employees who maintained it, former staff members launched a new independent website called Climate.us to help keep trusted climate information available to the public.

Vote Democratic Socialism, health care, social security, child care, education funding, gender and racial equality etc etc and etc.

Leave it to foreign news outlets to take action and to keep us informed. Thank you, BBC. You ROCK!!!

Tijuana 4:00 am last night :the Iranian Soccer team arrives. This is the most shameful #WarCup in history. They have had no recovery after matches, immediate flights to the airport,management/logistics staff denied visas. Shame on America. Shame on FIFA #WorldCup2026

The Commanders have had about 16 starting quarterbacks over the last 30 years that cannot throw as good as this

The Supreme Court is spending millions to beef up security amid a rise in threats to the justices. Along with restricting the justices' personal freedoms, the move threatens to further cocoon them in ideological bubbles as they decide controversial cases.

Here's what the media won't show you: three formerly incarcerated Black men who are now authors. You can learn a lot from their stories. This BLACK-owned online bookstore has their books in stock ✊🏾📚 #booksky #blackbooksky #blacksky

Why would a book, especially one allegedly filled with stuff that's not true, merit a White House presidential briefing? Because it's all true, of course. All of it. And they know it, hence the panic. Every accusation is an admission.

Honest to God people,do we have to make parallel meetings for emojis?They were meant to be simplistic ways to show simple emotions/thoughts. Do we have to over nuance them so a thumbs up has to be something other than an OK/affirmative up or a crying laughter emoji cant mean that? Really?I mean FFS.

#Books #Reading Been on a reading hiatus.Concentration was crap for a few weeks. Barbara Kingsolver is a fav author of mine & "Demon Cooperhead" has been in my TBR for ahwile.Books have to call to me when ready. Today was the day.OMG! So good! Grips you from 1st page. Reading mojo restored.

You know what’s a greater threat to our country? Having a president so stupid he doesn’t understand the differences between socialism, communism, and fascism.

“You cannot make billions of dollars without hurting lots of people. And you can’t hurt lots of people without, in some sense, believing that they’re not really people.” Corey Doctorow

I just learned that data centers don't even NEED to use all the water they're guzzling up. It's all because the people making them refuse to make proper cooling loops, but it's cheaper to just turn all that water into waste. What the actual fuck. Want for efficiency is dead apparently.

Class, in accordance with Texas’s new law, we are going to engage in Bible study. Please open you Bibles to Ezekiel 23:20. “There she lusted after her lovers, whose penises were like those of donkeys and whose ejaculations were like that of horses.” The Bible, pornography for the WHOLE family!

👇💯‼️ And when your son-in-law is too much of an ego maniac/ too stupid to realize he has no expertise or capabilities in the area. An assignment he should have turned down flat. But you know money amassed by crime makes you automatically competent and "great" at everything in maga world.

Every accusation is a confession.

I still think this is one of the most egregious acts of Treason ever committed….

Data centers are harming every environment they are placed in.

Ossoff: "Mike Collins is a bigot and antisemite under federal investigation for the illegal misuse of tax dollars, widely known as a man of poor character who lacks the judgment and integrity to serve in the Senate."

Ossoff: I don’t know if you saw the mess in Washington last week. The president was so humiliated in Hormuz, he threw his toys out of the stroller and refused to sign the affordable housing bill.

Ossoff: "When they gathered in Atl to remove Black elected officials not by defeating them at the polls, but by manipulating maps to dilute minority power, they saw you mobilize & they backed down. A wave is building ... let's make sure they hear it down at Mar-a-Lago, that GA will bow to no king!"

🚨‼️ Breaking 🚨‼️ Leon Black is walking out of our Epstein Oversight investigation after refusing to answer questions about his NDAs with women.

My homage to the best Presidential family. Love Them!

This is called prison. Keeping everyone under constant surveillance is putting everyone into permanent incarceration for life. Do any of these tech weirdos actually ever interact with humans?

I would read letters like Emily’s every night in the White House. They were powerful reminders of why the work we did mattered, and who we were fighting for.

A win for the resistance! We’re glad he won. The District of Columbia has settled a lawsuit brought by a protester who was detained and handcuffed after following National Guard troops through the city while playing Darth Vader’s theme from Star Wars.

I'm sick of these movies being so on the nose.
