More of this!

Al Green and Jasmine Crockett are my leaders.

For the rest of my life, I will never understand how a country full of people busting their asses, working paycheck to paycheck, allow the fucking richest guy on Earth to call them "parasites" while calling the Social Security we contributed to our entire lives "a Ponzi scheme."

Un-fucking-real.

Two ‘Greens’ did the same thing but only the black one is punished.

old Soviet joke for our times:

Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to.

Guy says: “looking for an obituary.”

Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.”

Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

Officials at the FAA have directed staff to identify tens of millions of dollars to fund a Starlink deal for upgrading air traffic control communications. Staff has been instructed to find the funds while minimizing documentation and avoiding a paper trail.

Good.

Thou shalt not deport hard working, good people whilst importing vile criminals like the Tate brothers and still claim you have morals.

An open letter to Trump from former Guantanamo prisoners The 16 signatories condemn Trump’s order to detain undocumented people in the military prison.

"We will not let Guantanamo’s horrors be repeated. Close Guantanamo. End indefinite detention. Stop this order. We are not just survivors of Guantanamo. We are witnesses. And we will not let the world forget."

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

HERO vs ZERO
I'm in a state of shock & still trying to process yesterday's shameful, traitorous debacle in the WH: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY. Our standing in the world has plummeted overnight, but the repercussions will be felt forevermore.

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent.

“It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up.

“A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.”

Protestors met JD Vance in Vermont when he went to vacation there today. This is a good one:

It is worth something. It’s always worth something to admit you were wrong. It’s always worth it to open yourself up to change. I hope it’s more than lip service and feeling sorry for herself. I hope she joins us in trying to insulate our communities as best we can. There’s always room.

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.”

I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

A screenshot from Chip Drop reads “your request has been received! This doesn’t mean that a delivery is on the way. It just means that your request has been added to our system. The next time an arborist needs to get rid of some wood chips or logs in your area, they’ll. E able to see that you’re on the list, and select your site for a delivery.”

Gardeners know.

It is time. 🌱

My husband got his hands on my normal local eggs from the international market and I can confirm, they taste right. The ones from the grocery store taste awful. 🤮

Hi, just a reminder that when you use Libro.fm for your audiobooks, you support independent bookshops vs. large corporations that drive them out of business.

We also pay taxes. And so do indie bookshops.

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA.

Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps.

Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems.

See how this works?

It is February 28 tomorrow.

This means a total and complete economic blackout.

This means buying nothing.

AT ALL

Not even your coffee!

Opt out tomorrow!

Tomorrow, February 28, let’s disrupt the status quo by spending ONLY at businesses that uplift our communities.

That means:
🚫 No gas from corporate giants
🚫 No fast food chains
🚫 No big-box retailers (Target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.)
