Peter Thiel, who thinks freedom & democracy are incompatible, and hates the social safety net & women voting, is trying to buy the outcome of VA’s redistricting vote to further his disgusting anti-democratic views.
Don’t let him!!!!! VOTE YES, Virginia, on 4/21, to stop Thiel.
"It is the first criminal charge against a federal officer arising from Operation Metro Surge. It bears a close watch, both on its own merits and as something of a dress rehearsal for the higher-profile potential prosecutions in the Good and Pretti cases." https://bit.ly/4etMth1
I look at the motives of several nations.
Roots of the current crisis:
Iran, 1953.
CIA fomented a coup against Mohammed Mossadegh, the legitimately elected President.
Mossadegh’s “crime”?
Nationalizing the foreign owned oil companies that were pumping Iranian oil.
If you know no history, everything is a mystery.
Wait, did UK farmers vote for Trump 3 times like US farmers did?
Seventeen people showed up at this CPAC-affiliated event hosted by Scott Presler. Nine of them left when they found out it wasn’t Sarah Huckabeast.
Excited to attend the ribbon-cutting for the next segment of California’s solar canal initiative later this month in Hickman. Imagine generating solar power over 4,000 miles or so canals across the state. A lot of Sierra and Colorado River water to save via avoided evaporation.
And herein lies the problem:
What was once the 4th Estate w/a duty to inform citizens in order to maintain liberty…
is now just the Real Estate of coddling billionaires content to print White House, Inc.’s press releases.
Read @guardian.com or all the independent media duly informing us today.
American Farmers first.
The Trump-loving/climate hating American farmers are already burning themselves (and us) down with their Triple Trump votes…
even though their climate-denial hurts their own farms in immediate and obvious ways…
so, yeah.
Farmers first.
Where's The Beef???
The Beef Is Up, Way Up, Look Up!!!
As for eggs, we had bird flu that drove prices sky high, now no more bird flu, egg prices coming down.
Now American farmers are frying,,,
and I don't mean eggs.
What a ridiculous administration.

Ok, here's my $20 million semolians...

Thank you, Connie...

gave NPR $200 million.
Today's winner of the Internet. Congratulations!
The Trump team is starting the week off-message.
FBI Director Kash Patel is suing The Atlantic over reporting about his conduct.
But launching a personal lawsuit while leading the FBI raises serious questions and shows he is undisciplined and unfocused at a time of heightened security concerns.
Of COURSE he's insider trading. He's a crook, he's ALWAYS been a crook, he's using the presidency to make billions.
He ran to stay out of jail, to make money and to feel powerful, because that's what a narcissist like him gets off on. It was never about helping people.
well... THAT's pretty eye opening, actually, Mike, to just say it out loud like that.
Did that sound different in your head?
Governor Tim Walz — "We are sick of this. A weak, reckless, Idiotic president just threw us into a war nobody asked for. No threat existed. No objectives were set. No exit plan exists. This is pure fascism." #cdnpoli
As long as you don't need groceries or gas...
things are going pretty well.

The Atlantic responds to Kash Patel's $250 million lawsuit:
"We stand by our reporting on Kash Patel, and we will vigorously defend The Atlantic and our journalists against this meritless lawsuit."
as previewed, Kash Patel files defamation suit against the Atlantic for its admittedly hugely critical article about him that ran over the weekend. Empty Trump like gesture or something real? (spoiler alert: the latter) I'll have a youtube up on it shortly. youtube.com/talkingfeds.
