For seven minutes of spending on this war, we could pave all 562 miles of gravel roads in Crawford County, Missouri. For another couple of hours, we’d have enough to go back to school open 5 days a week and full scholarships for college or trade school for every student.
Unless they are stopped, all the worst things that Trump and the Republican Party are going to do are in the future, not the past.
This makes stopping them the highest priority for the future of human life on the planet.
America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth.
The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth.
When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.
Make it so.
Yeah, it's totally how we're dressed, not that the Trump administration reversed the plan to compensate passengers for long flight delays.
Hearing a song about good sex and bad love makes going to church more fun.
We showed up in deep red, rural Bourbon, Missouri and about 15 minutes before a severe thunderstorm.
If you're fighting
for the next unstable
20something mass shooter

then maybe the problem is *your* mental illness.
Call now.
I’m not an efficiency expert but for our space program I think the best thing would be to shut down the federal program that successfully implemented history’s first moon landing and turn it all over to a white supremacist con man who glues his trucks together.
I'm in. We're taking the Ts off of our Model Y. I also made a bumper sticker that says "we did NOT SEE this coming" We're old and can't afford to dump a car that runs. Tesla needs to dump Elon. Blackrock and Vanguard have as much of the company as he does.
Call your Senators & Reps tomorrow morning, especially the GOP ones, & demand support for Ukraine. Every GOP official needs to be asked if they are behind Trump & believe we should ally with Putin over Zelensky.
You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.
KEEP THIS IN FRONT OF YOU...
Do not believe them.
Do not get used to this.
Keep your focus.
Stand your ground.
Sometimes self-government just means elections. And sometimes it means recognizing the deeper dignity and meaning of what it means to be a people. That means speaking up, standing out, and protesting. We can only be free together.

I quit drinking years ago, don’t really like martinis, and I am too.
Just reply, “I want to go out.” You’ll be fine.
I’m not arguing with White folks about race anymore when I can just bring up eggs instead 😂
Regenerative farmers can be sane, scientifically literate, Black, Indigenous, non-religious, non-crunchy, non-alt-right, feminist, accepting of plant based diets, urban born, and a heterosexual male, all at the same time.
Retweet this and/or follow me to see what that looks like.
What's next, renaming the Great Lakes after the kids? Or how about renaming the Pacific Ocean because it is the biggest? This is not trivial. It's show of power. It's him pissing on ALL of us.
I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget
"The calm, gentle Dharma teacher. The fierce political activist, heartbroken by climate change. The devoted student of jazz guitar... The horny animal body. The poet, the clown, the werewolf. The eternal wanderer."

So how are we preparing for the coming shitstorm? I already have plenty of toilet paper.
Great piece from @wajali.bsky.social on all the "hypocritical outrage" from the GOP over the Hunter Biden pardon. He brings receipts:

"neoliberal pathocrat" is a phrase I've been looking for. Thanks.
