NOW HEAR THIS: There is enough work, money, food, housing and plenty of resources for everyone on this planet to have enough to live a quality life. Our political system is designed to make that impossible.

Sigh.

Could’ve had
$25,000 to buy a house
$6,000 child credit
$50,000 business credit

But you went for the $1200 check that’s never happening. And now prices are going to go up $3000/year from tariffs alone, with no stimulus checks in sight.

Matt Gaetz didn't even last as long as Scaramucci, so now Gaetz is the new Scaramucci.

Starting a phony transgender bathroom debate and hiding behind the guise of “protecting women” to distract from your attempts to push through the confirmations of alleged rapists, sex traffickers, and fraudsters at the highest levels of government is peak Republican Party.

Congresswoman-elect Sarah McBride is the most normie a trans woman has ever been. This should be a giant flashing alarm for trans women who have tried to cozy up to the right. Caitlyn Jenner, Brianna Wu, Blaire White - no matter who you are, Republicans are not your friends.

You know, Republicans blocking the release of the report on sex trafficking by Matt Gaetz so the American people won't learn the truth is exactly the Deep State conspiracy sh^t they accused Democrats of.

Here's what will drive King Pumpkin Tits insane: Hearing over and over that he's not the real POTUS. Musk is. He's Musk's bitch. This will hurt more than calling him Putin's bitch. And it will be Donald's undoing. Do it. Poke him with it relentlessly. This is the new assignment.

Here's what Trump's privatization of the National Weather Service will look like over the next 4 years. By 2028 it could very well be the real temps for November if Elon & Trump destroy all of our regulatory bodies for their personal gains. For now thank goodness 122 feels like 55.

Noticed over on Twittler that they got rid of the trends to push their own news subjects that Elon Musk wants covered instead of what the public is talking about. Wonder why that happened? Could it be that all day it was nazi & bashing trump trending that Elon had to change it so Trump isn't upset?

Just absorbing the fact that the first order of business in the new QAnon-inflected MAGA Republican era is to demand that Congress bury its report on sex trafficking and drug allegations against a Republican member of Congress who they're trying to promote to higher office.

Instead of paying their fair share, Trump is making sure every rich person gets a huge tax break while he makes millions of us homeless & unable to get the healthcare we need to stay alive. All so the rich get more $ back that they won't even notice. It's not about helping America, only the rich.

So I hear MAGAts are starting to come over here just to troll. I say let them because that's even less people on Elon's platform. If they can act semi respectful & don't throw out conspiracy after conspiracy then I can handle them here because we need to know what they are planning to screw up next.

“Expose yourself to conservative ideas.” Those ideas: - Rape is fine. - Vaccines don’t work. - Lying is good. - Science is wrong. - Democracy is bad. - Women should be powerless. - America is simultaneously the most perfect amazing country ever and a broken hellscape of crime and disorder.

The same people screaming to keep the Matt Gaetz ethics report are also the people who loved seeing the photo of Hunter Biden’s junk blown up & displayed on the house floor. Is it a coincidence that every single time there’s sexual depravity Marjorie Taylor Greene is somehow right there?

Just to be clear: the incoming Trump administration is going to war against their own Republican senate majority and the constitution's advice and consent provision so they can make a man investigated for ***sex trafficking a minor*** into the most powerful law enforcement officer in the country.

I was running against John Ratcliffe for his House seat in 2019 when Trump tapped him to work in his cabinet. It took almost an entire year for them to replace him with Pat Fallon. I had 2 months to campaign against an opponent. In that time the UHS ransomware attack kept me away from the campaign.

Smart Phones have made it all the worse. I know so many locals that use the voice prompt to both read & send texts as well on social media accounts through phone apps. They've given up on reading. I just hope we can get our education system back on track soon before we fail yet another generation.

Do people realize that this is a public acknowledgment by Israel that it illegally interfered in the 2024 presidential election by taking into account which actions would or would not—and when—benefit the Trump campaign? And that it did this as Trump and Netanyahu were having regular private calls?

Shocking for a sitting US Senator to suggest only 6% of federal workers are "back at work." I looked it up and what the OMB study actually said was that (excluding fully remote employees) federal employees spend 79.4% of their time physically at work, compared 61.2% for telework-eligible employees.
The federal government employed 2.28 million civilian personnel.
• Of these 2.28 million personnel, the majority – 1.2 million or 54% – worked fully on-site,
as their jobs require them to be physically present during all working hours.
• The remaining 1.1 million or 46.4% of civilian personnel were telework-eligible.
• Of the total 2.28 million personnel, 228 thousand or 10% of civilian personnel were in
remote positions where there was no expectation that they worked in-person on any
regular or recurring basis.
• Among all federal employees, excluding remote workers that do not have a work-site to
report to, 79.4% of regular, working hours were spent in-person.
• Among the subset of federal workers that are telework-eligible, excluding remote
workers, 61.2% of regular, working hours were spent in-person.
