So true. I always thought Americans would choose good over evil. My bubble was burst and faith dashed. I don’t think we can be trusted anymore.

The decisive test of our society in my lifetime was the 2024 election and our failure was spectacular and total. I will never again have any faith in the American electorate to do the obviously right thing.

Once again Democratic senior leadership are on the wrong page, still failing to realise that strategy based on an 80’s mindset is not viable now.

Some of his readers have asked Mike Masnick @mmasnick.bsky.social why his technology news site, Tech Dirt, has been covering politics so intensely lately. www.techdirt.com/2025/03/04/w...
I cannot recommend Mike's reply enough. It's exactly what readers need to hear, what journalists need to do.
Since writing this article, I have received messages from federal civil servants who tell me it is accurate, and that they are frightened. Please share this with anyone who doesn't understand the scale of the transformation.

Social media post by Senator Tina Smith (@SenTinaSmith ) with the text: 'By “you” she means these guys.' The post includes a split image of two men: one in a shiny blue outfit singing into a microphone on stage, and the other in a black 'Make America Great Again' t-shirt and cap, raising his arms outdoors. Below this, a quote from Sen. Marsha Blackburn (@M ...), posted 16 hours ago, reads: 'President Trump and Vice President Vance will never stop fighting for you!' with a verified badge and Capitol building icon.
Zuck and Muck. 🤢

Black and white photo of Bernard Świerczyna, a Polish soldier, Auschwitz prisoner no. 1393, one of the leaders of the resistance in the camp.
Black and white image of an aged wooden surface with faded handwritten text, possibly historical, inscribed across it.
Text on a plain background reading: "I just wanted to be human, not a soulless digits clump, Tie existence to the future, and decipher acts of past I was captured by betrayal that placed me behind those bars, but my honor won't be broken, even by the killing squad.
23 February 1914 | Bernard Świerczyna was born, a Polish soldier, #Auschwitz prisoner no. 1393, one of the leaders of the resistance in the camp.
3 days before he was hanged (30 December 1944) he wrote those words inside cell 28 in the basement of Block 11 at Auschwitz I.
For most folks, democracy is local.
So get out and run for office.
The people are demanding change. Don’t just wonder when that change will happen.
Be that change.
