Welcome to the resistance! Over 1 million brave souls have answered the call this week. The EmpireโTrumpโs administration and Muskโmay believe its grip is unbreakable, but every day, more join our ranks. Weโve always knownโtomorrow, there will be more of us.

Some don't want posts like this on @bsky.app. I want more. Why ?
This is a moderated platform. Which means unbridled hate is removed. And blocked.
Making this is a platform where we can engage and have real discussions on real issues.

How to Win the USAID Fight
Rules for Democrats.
"Donald Trump and JD Vance arenโt going to respond by saying, 'These Untermenschen deserve to die.' But you know who just might say that out loud? The ketamine-addled billionaire and his menagerie of 20-year-old incels." So make them say it.

Exclusive | Elon Muskโs Secret Conversations With Vladimir Putin
Regular contacts between worldโs richest man and Americaโs chief antagonist raise security concerns. Topics include geopolitics, business and personal matters.
The problem with Musk didnโt start with Trump. But given Musk has significant government contracts now has unchecked power as an unelected head of a made-up โagencyโ hereโs a little refresh from a @WSJ story from October. Pay attention people.

Elon Musk and the League of Shadows
America gets government by vigilante.
"Hereโs the thing: When we get to that final showdown, itโs for all the marbles. If Trump can successfully defy a SCOTUS order, then American democracy is over."

Wait. Have @doge and Elon just been pulling numbers from usaspending.gov ?
Then releasing it as if they discovered it ?
Brilliant if true. Absolutely brilliant. Fooled me.
Very Trump like too.
Any usaspending.gov experts out there that can tell us ?

Elon Muskโs 20-year-old staffers are not only demanding access to highly restricted information but are also displaying aggressive behaviorโshouting at anyone who stands in their way, resorting to name-calling, throwing tantrums, and even hitting objects in anger.

Muskโs teamโChristopher Young, Nikhil Rajpal, and Gavin Kligerโis currently at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). This move comes just months after Musk posted โDelete CFPBโ on his X social media platform.

Elon Muskโs companiesโTesla and SpaceXโhave received billions in government contracts and subsidies. Yet, this issue is largely ignored. Isnโt it time we started holding corporations accountable for the massive burden they place on taxpayers?

The Logic of Destruction
And how to resist it
If you voted Republican, and you care about your country, please act rather than rationalize. Unless you cast your ballot so that South African oligarchs could steal your data, money, country, and future, tell your elected officials that you wanted something else.

Ive said this before. Unions have a moment in time to create parallel, Non Profit Trust or Associated Health Plans and
offer them to small to medium size businesses.
Unions can negotiate far better than SMBs or associations .
Imagine if millions got their healthcare from unions ?

At OPM, Muskโs staffers wonโt leaveโthey work around the clock and have even installed sofa beds in the office. Our access to data systems has been restricted, raising serious concerns about cybersecurity and a complete lack of oversight. We are keeping our heads down and documenting everything.

Iโm going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period.
I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt.
But itโs the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are
