The allegations laid out in The Atlantic piece are just another pebble in the corruption pond. Enough is enough. Itโs time for Patel to go! link to the article here: www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...
FBI Director Kash Patel should already have been fired for his lies about the Epstein investigation; for flying on taxpayerโs dime to party at places like the Olympics; and for gross mismanagement. 1/

Katie Phang highlights Smithโs role in securing Trumpโs presidential immunity, emphasizing the influence of Trumpโs loyalists in the judiciary. โLetโs blame the Supreme Court justices that voted for it, but letโs also blame this guy, Justin Smith,โ Phang states.
I agree!
Thank you @johnpavlovitz.bsky.social

You need to turn out in November like itโs Obama vs. Trump. Seriously. Do not treat this like every other midterm election.
Deprive people of nutrition, of security, of the basic ability to plan beyond tomorrow & you deprive them of the bandwidth to fight back.
This is no conspiracy theory โ itโs a verifiable pattern. You just have to look at who keeps getting cuts and who doesnโt. 3/end
This is nothing new. It's a tactic as old as this country.
Ask Native Americans, whose buffalo were systematically slaughtered. A people stripped of their food source is a people stripped of their power. 2/
Populations that are hungry, sick, and scrambling to survive don't organize. They don't protest. They're too busy trying to feed their children. A mother rationing her toddler's produce budget isn't writing to her congresswoman. She's at her second job, desperate to make ends meet. 1/
occurring just minutes before Trump's most market-moving announcements โ tariff pauses, Iran reversals, you name it. 3/end.
He asked the question we should ALL be screaming: Are decisions about war and peace being made โ in part โ to serve insider traders rather than the national interest? This is not a conspiracy theory. The BBC, Reuters, Axios, and Salon have all documented a pattern of massive, suspicious trades 2/
$580 million in oil futures were traded โ minutes before Trump announced he was pausing strikes on Iran. Minutes. Not hours. Minutes. Someone knew & that someone made an absolute fortune off a decision about war and peace. Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman called it what it is: treason. 1/
Hands off our social security

We need more people like Bernie Sanders in the house & senate
The AI boom comes at a cost ๐ฎโ๐จโฃโฃ
โฃBehind the AI hype is a surge in energy use, data centre expansion and growing threats to democracy.โฃ Can it still be called progress if it deepens environmental harm, surveillance, and the grip of Big Tech and autocrats on power?โฃ

Freedom isnโt free, and white supremacist treason worship shouldnโt be tax-deductible.
This week, Virginia shows the way:

And today, 51 senators voted to let a foreign corporation poison it for profit that will never reach a single American community.
America First, though.๐ญ
No sulfide-ore copper mine in history has operated & closed without contaminating the surrounding water. Not one. This land was never ceded in good faith. The original holders are still named on the patents. The water still flows the same direction it always has. 5/
This is sulfide-ore copper mining. When sulfide minerals are exposed to air & water, they produce sulfuric acid. That acid leaches heavy metals into every waterway it touches. It does not stop. It is not reversible. 4/
