From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.
Octavia E. Butler, 1998:
The lack of taxes going to keeping all our children safe and happy should have been enough for everyone to want to burn this govt down and start from scratch but instead we’re a country still led by people who shrugged at Sandy Hook and then *protected* police inaction at Uvalde. Make it make sense.
For those who do not know. For those of that do, keep this #Fact_Check in circulation.
We won't quit until we win.

Imagine how much new thinking most economists would have to do if it were finally acknowledged that the environment isn't something with an infinite capacity for absorbing the parts of your business practice that you don't want to have to deal with.
Americans have already been using credit cards to buy necessities like groceries for years. It’s unacceptable and Susan Collins and repubs in Congress keep making things worse. We need change. Maine needs a senator that knows food policy and what it’s like to rely on govt assistance. Maine needs me.
Ketanji Brown Jackson was the only dissenter in the conversion therapy case 😞
It's so upsetting, and I just want to remind folks that Trans Lifeline is a resource you should take advantage of right now if you need it.
Your life is precious.

Ex: You could just despair about Iran & post about it on social media, or you could scroll & post less & have the capacity to remember that gas is going up & you shop at Kroger & get fuel points, but you work from home, and your friend that drives for Uber needs that discount more than you do.
84% of the revenue of SpaceX comes from American taxpayers.
So if you wonder who is paying for the damage of this person’s sexual misconduct, the answer is:
If you’re American, you are paying for it. I am paying for it. Every Conservative & Liberal is paying for it.
“No one gives a sh*t about housing.”
“Affordability is a Democrat scam.”
“If [gas prices] rise, they rise.”
Millions are struggling with the cost of food, housing, and other basic necessities. 70% of U.S. adults say the American Dream is dead.
And this is how Trump responds?
Netanyahu didn’t do this. Putin didn’t do this. Can we please admit that the US is committing atrocities on their own without nefarious foreigners egging them on?
So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.
That's roughly $1 billion per day.
$41,666,667 per hour.
$11,574 per second.
People do not want this.
They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.
Why has Trump been pushed in this direction? Follow the money. UAE, Qatar, the Saudis and Israel paid him to.
I know this feels pointless but everyone has to call their congressional reps and say they oppose war with Iran and they oppose Trump illegally starting one without congressional approval — both
5 Calls can help you make the call:

if the media had any integrity — and it doesn’t anymore — they’d be pointing out on a loop that Obama made a deal with Iran, Trump cancelled it because Obama is Black, and then Trump started a war on the pretense there is no deal
$413,000 per bed. Insanity.
While they cut health care, food assistance, etc.
This is interesting: As Dems & independents nationwide look for a new politics, Justice Dems are launching a *full slate* to "build a true opposition & governing party."
Each incumbent they're challenging takes corporate PAC cash & "has voted to send Israel billions while families at home suffer."
Right-wing Heritage Foundation’s own data shows fewer than 100 noncitizens voted since 1982 (!!!)
This is not a real problem. “The SAVE ACT is a Trojan horse to nationalize elections”: open.substack.com/pub/thiswill...
The SAVE Act would require Americans to show a passport or birth certificate in person just to register to vote.
Millions of Americans don’t have access to these documents. This is voter suppression, plain and simple.
Call your senators to urge them to vote no: (202) 224-3121
"Families in Minneapolis are afraid to go to work, send kids to school, answer their door—and are still being evicted. If people can't safely work, move, or live—eviction is violence!" -Minneapolis ICE protester calls for Gov. Walz to declare eviction moratorium. LIVE NOW ⬇️
Corporate America made over $22 billion from contracts with ICE and CBP last year.
The list of companies profiting from Trump's aggressive deportation regime includes Palantir, Deloitte, GEO Group, and many more.

This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for “illegals trying to vote.”
In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.
The largest labor strike in history is happening today in Minnesota. Yes they are suppressing the information but if enough us talk about it off and online they can’t hide it.
Deporting children with cancer.
Using a 5-year-old as bait.
Shooting moms.
ICE is beyond reform. And today the House is voting to bankroll more terror. Hell no.
drag them through the mud
$1.5T for the military budget
$170B for ICE and Border Patrol
$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet
$470M to send National Guard into cities
$230M for Trump's DOJ "compensation"
$200M for Kristi Noem's jets
$100M for Trump's golf outings
But no money to lower your healthcare costs.
