The SAVE Act would make voting incredibly difficult for Americans—especially for rural voters, tribal citizens, people of color, disabled people, unhoused people, people living below the poverty line, and transgender people, writes @queenmab.bsky.social rewirenewsgroup.com/2025/04/01/o...

Opinion: The SAVE Act Will Disenfranchise Entire Swaths of Voters
Tracking down documentary proof of citizenship is hard enough, but what do you do if the name on your birth certificate doesn’t match your current name?

This out-of-touch billionaire doesn’t seem to understand that Social Security is a lifeline for America’s retirees and for people who can no longer work.  We will always fight to make sure workers can retire with financial security and dignity.

So, wait, the plan is for Trump to crash the markets, destroy people's savings, push up prices with tariffs, crush economic growth, and then gut Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security? While firing tens of thousands of federal workers? The concept of a plan is a depression?

Elon Musk slandered Social Security over the weekend by calling the vital and beloved program a criminal Ponzi scheme, the same lie Donald Trump used before he decided to run for president. Musk has recently begun the wholesale dismantling of our Social Security system.

Despite what Elon Musk says—Social Security is NOT a Ponzi Scheme. Social Security is a PROMISE that the American people should be able to count on after paying into it their entire lives. Repost if you agree.

The #News brings #pain, #wounds, & #suffering—the #ViaNegativa on steroids–and sometimes overwhelming #despair. So we should admit how #vulnerable we are & encircle ourselves in a robe of #light as we “witness the wounds of the world.” And know that we are #notalone. bit.ly/4aW465c bit.ly/40YsiPX

On Praying the News in Times of Danger and Darkness - Daily Meditations with Matthew Fox

This is what should be on every front page right now. What's happening in the US right now is an illegal power grab by a private citizen. IT'S A COUP. It's a digital coup. It's Musk who's leading it. The consequences are terrifying. And it's coming for us next. 1/ open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

IT IS A COUP
This is what should be on every front page in 150 point banner headlines. All I have is this Substack but I lay it beneath your feet and pray to a higher power that I'm wrong.

1. Unreal that they caved, paid the bribes, and still got burned by Trump. Absolutely shocking. 2. Corporate media is just different shades of the same thing—bought and controlled. Seek out independent journalists (not influencers) if you want real, unfiltered news.
