DAMN, SON!
Reinventing how a thousand year old instrument is played!

This is absolute corruption, in case anyone was wondering.
At no point should elected officials be involved designing their own electoral boundaries.
Especially in their own favour.
Win by doing a good job, not by stealing the voices of the electorate.
I think we should ban all gerrymandering.
The GOP would never vote for it, though. Marginalizing the non-white vote is the only way they stay relevant.
"We live in a society where we've basically become totally callous to the idea that someone can gun down eight kids...and that's just the way of life. We deal with it and we move on, because we have become accustomed to it."
@samsteindc.bsky.social on America's numbness to mass shootings.
Americans would be amazed at what a good education system would do for our society as a whole, less crime, corruption, poverty and safer commons.
There seems to be a dispute on this.
WAAA WAAA WAAA! PHUCKEN sore loser he done forgot, FAFO fool ๐
Voter ID?
How about Donor ID?
Nobody can spend a dime
influencing our politics,
be it elections or governing
unless they are
human beings &
American citizens.
Maybe it's just me but I don't think Jeffrey Epstein's clients should be the ones to decide if Jeffrey Epstein's clients should be prosecuted.
The Epstein files contain evidence about the sexual abuse of women, and especially minors. That was terrible. But there's something even worse in those files: evidence of billions of dollars of corruption. Many wealthy people who were not involved in sex abuse were involved in financial crimes.
Imagine if you had full access to the Epstein Files ,you could actually save lives and the global economy with one little โOopsโ
I need you all to remember ICE is still destroying families and assaulting people daily.
Don't forget to keep protesting.
A New Jersey data center will reportedly receive $77 million in tax breaks โ while only creating one permanent job.
One job, in exchange for higher utility bills, noise pollution, and potential groundwater pollution.
Is it any wonder communities are organizing to stop data centers?
Seems to me like Trump is desperately begging Iran to sign a replica of the Obama JCPOA he tore up. All for the low low price of thousands dead, global instability, high energy prices, and a toll on ships through the once-free strait of Hormuz.
Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?
Clears it up a lot.
This illustrates the need for broad and comprehensive reforms with money in politics. We need an international โNo Dictators Dayโ before he steps up his attack on the nation he was supposed to govern, not humiliate. ๐ฑ๐คฌ
This man is our nationโs enemy. He must be impeached. The world is watching.. ๐คบ๐บ๐ธ
The President of the United States is a liar.
10 children were shot today in Shreveport, LA and 8 of them died. The police chief just doesnโt know how something like this could ever happen. But I think he knows exactly how something like this could happen and it has to do with the > 393 million guns in this country w/ very little regulation.
Asking them to defend their positions as SURVIVORS is like TELLING THEM THEY DESERVE TO BE MOLESTED AGAIN.
WE HAVE THE FILES
RELEASE THEM ๐คฌ๐ฌ๐ฌ
There should be a law passed, and enforced, that we will no longer have for profit prisons of any kind! Ever again! Incentivized incarceration should be a crime against humanity and should be retroactively enforced! They know what they are doing is wrong!
He might as well answer in Russian.
This war is so damn confusing. Itโs why we shouldnโt let drunks and dementia patients run it.
Alt text: Screenshot of a post on X (formerly Twitter) by Abdulkhaleq Abdulla (@Abdulkhaleq_UAE), with a verified badge. The post reads: โThis is what I told Reuters today: The UAE no longer needs America to defend it, as it has proven during the Iranian aggression that it is capable of defending itself with distinction. What the UAE needs is to acquire only the best and latest weapons that America has. Therefore, it is time to think about closing the American bases, as they are a burden and not a strategic asset.โ The post is labeled โTranslated from Arabic by Grokโ and shows a timestamp of 10:21 AM ยท 4/19/26 with 139K views.
NEW: UAE scholar Abdulkhaleq Abdulla says the UAE no longer needs U.S. protection, calling American bases a โburden, not a strategic assetโ and suggesting they should be closed. The United Statesโ standing in the region has been obliterated.
Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations:
Alphabet: 8.01%
AT&T: 4.6%
Meta: 3.57%
General Motors: 3.09%
Amazon: 1.37%
Exxon Mobil: 1.31%
Disney: -1.57%
CVS Health: -3.88%
Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5%
This is what a rigged system looks like.
๐MEDIA: Stop calling Jared Kushner a "high-level negotiator." He's a damn thief operating in his repulsive family's best interests not ours.
One could liken this to Kissinger's "madman" theory of statecraft, except with an actual madman.
