I still remember the day when I learned how to create a link in HTML. I was a coder!

Apparently the term TACO has really started to resonate with people and get under Trump's skin. I predict that Democrats, sensing an opportunity to finally fight fire with fire, will promptly ditch it, a la Tim Walz's "weird" label from the election.

Cold calls are bad enough, but a surefire way to ensure I will never consider your product is to cold call me with an AI chatbot agent.

As if they even know what due process is, much less why it's important.

As a 20 year communications professional I’d like to offer Democrats my most sophisticated advice: While Trump is punching himself in the nuts, you could choose to 1. Also punch him in the nuts; or 2. Punch yourself in the nuts. I strongly advise number 1.

Volodymyr Zelensky's Oval Office visit ended early when Donald Trump and JD Vance began angrily yelling at him. Here's why women like Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton are too emotional to be president.

First job out of college with Lockheed Martin (I know, I know): "We just had our best quarter and best year in history and we have an awesome outlook ahead!" Followed a week later by "No raises or bonuses this year because the economy is bad. Doesn't affect us, but you know, it's bad over there."

Part 2, in which AOC explains that right-wing voters call their Congressional Representatives ALL THE TIME, and Democrats need to match that energy on a consistent basis.

Why are you silent on the coup in progress? Why aren't you joining other Dems in at least speaking out about it and drawing attention to it? Why aren't you trying to convince your Republican colleagues that it's in their best interests to not allow Trump and Musk to subvert Congress's authority?

Whichever way the wind blows. Anyone who believes for-profit companies will do the right thing just because it's the right thing is a fool.

No, it wasn't. He got more votes than any other one candidate, but more people voted for someone other than him than people voted for him. Not that it fucking matters. Trump gets less than 50% in popular vote, but it's tight : NPR search.app/E6nvP3MJghLx...

They're going to illegally dismantle the Department of Education and strip millions of students of student loans, funding for students with disabilities, etc. They want to destroy public education. www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...

Trump preps order to dismantle Education Dept. as DOGE probes data

Closing the agency would require congressional approval, so the new administration hopes to diminish it in the meantime.

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

You can Google them and find their numbers that way, but the most convenient method recently is to get the "5 Calls" app, which will walk you through it. Apple: 5 Calls: Contact Your Congress on the App Store search.app/PHCFJfvnU93B... Android: g.co/kgs/A1uUHvH

Worth noting that McConnell refusing to whip votes to convict Trump at his impeachment trial (or vote himself to convict) is *why* we’re now in a position where a trade war with our allies could happen. If McConnell is looking for the person at fault, he might want to consult a mirror.

A slightly more optimistic take. One can only hope it's right, though I have my doubts - both that our nation will survive long enough and that enough of our fellow citizens will be capable of learning the right lessons.
