Ph.D physicist retired from the tech industry where I worked on the early internet, cloud adoption and most recently data and AI. Now focused on the energy transition and trying to save democracy in the US.

Hakeem Jeffries posted pictures of two Rep. Members posing with βYoung Republicansβ who were part of a racist text thread (as reported by Politico).
In response, Mike Davis (well-connected in Trump World & on the Hill) called Jeffries a βhouse slaveβ for George Soros - proving Jeffriesβ point.
What? As I said in a post just before reading this...

I think Platner will win the primary and it will make him stronger vs Collins.
It's definitely a mistake. The future won't be decided based on experience pushing through bi-partisan legislation or winning over donors.
@grahamformaine.bsky.social understands that the fight is about taking our country back from the oligarchs and making our country work for real people.

Greg Bovino, Kristi Noem, and DHS need to answer for their unchecked attacks on Chicago residents.
ICE is an out-of-control danger to our peaceful communities.

Update from the empty halls of Congress:
The Speaker has still not sworn in Rep. Grijalva.
The House doors remain locked.
The Epstein files are still sealed.
The Republican health care crisis is still weighing on millions of Americans.
Speaker Johnson needs to do his job so WE can do ours!
He really doesn't want the Epstein files to be released.

If you disagree what Trump and the GOP are doing to America, please find a local rally and attend. If you agree with Trump, you can do that without falling for the Fox news propaganda calling us terrorists, communists, paid agitators, etc. Yes, Trump won a very close election, but that doesn't make it right for him to declare war on 50% of America.
Let's all try to get our less engaged friends and family to join a No Kings Day rally and push back hard on the GOP's attempt to brand us as terrorists, communists and American haters.
I've been talking to people directly and reaching out on facebook.

If you are not planning on being out there with your cameras, you should resign now.
If Republicans are going to label you a terrorist for peacefully protesting Trump's failing presidency, abuses of power, and treatment of blue America as an enemy nation, let's turn out in even bigger numbers.
