🧵 We are, in fact, doing the thing again for @onesimplewish.bsky.social. In 2024, the kind people of this community put the money cannon on blast to help grant $75K in wishes for children in foster care. Toys, tech, a suit for job interviews. Here we go again! 👇

“We eat this sand. We have no food. We have no flour. Have mercy on us.”

Videos of starving people in Gaza have been all over social media for months. Now on CNN. As Israel blocks aid humanitarian orgs want to facilitate.

Hundreds have been shot and killed trying to get aid.

If you're in Illinois, you're on Section 8, and your landlord tries to evict you because of the government funding freeze, email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com. My cases are pay-whatever-you-can.

How it started. How it’s going.

Gee, I can't believe all the things voters were told would happen are happening.

Fully 75% of immigrant farm workers didn’t show up to work the other day in Bakersfield, California because of fears of ICE raids. America’s agricultural communities will be the hardest hit from Trump’s harsh immigration policies. Food prices are going to skyrocket.

As an American living overseas, it's cut off for me too 😭

As we start the new year, I would like to remind everyone that it is now almost 120 years since the US decided consumer protection - by which I mean regulation - mattered. Given the upcoming presidential inauguration, let's talk about how that happened - and why it's so important. (A thread)

Pure bliss

On Wednesday, that prediction looked spot on. Wielding the social media platform he purchased for $44 billion in 2022, Mr. Musk detonated a rhetorical nuclear bomb in the middle of government shutdown negotiations on Capitol Hill. In more than 150 separate posts on X, Mr. Musk demanded that Republicans back away from a bipartisan spending deal that was meant to avoid a government shutdown over Christmas. He vowed political retribution against anyone voting for the sprawling bill backed by House Speaker Mike Johnson.

NYT Headline: Elon Musk flexes his political muscle as shutdown nears. Picture of Musk talking to reporters beneath it.

The headline should be:
"An Unelected Billionaire is Running the Government"

I hate when they take away things you were just starting to really enjoy, like your favorite TV show or democracy.

Starting a phony transgender bathroom debate and hiding behind the guise of “protecting women” to distract from your attempts to push through the confirmations of alleged rapists, sex traffickers, and fraudsters at the highest levels of government is peak Republican Party.

Haha, yes. I'm a Florida escapee, so I'm used to it.

Bom dia bluesky. Grateful to be here. #firstpost #welcome #portugal #tavira #algarve #travel #livingabroad #expat
