Connecting SignalGate to Project2025: “They're doing official communications on Signal to avoid those communications being retained. There are Project 2025 training videos that specifically recommended this type of thing as a way to avoid subpoenas… There will be no evidence…”

US will no longer commemorate World Aids Day, reports say State department has told employees and grant recipients to not publicly promote or make event on 1 December

#Pinks #ProudBlue
Today is World AIDS Day. I guess the regime is just going to pretend like AIDS doesn’t exist until it ramps back up or mutates into something there is no hope for. I was a kid in the 80’s and 90’s. I remember. I HATE the regime.

Karoline Leavitt and Hegseth are throwing Admiral Bradley under the bus for the controversial Caribbean airstrikes.

This admin is a chaotic mess, but thankfully the time to hold them accountable is fast approaching.

Let’s make sure they face the music in '26.

This is the scandal. Trump isn’t targeting dangerous people. He’s targeting peaceful immigrants. Almost exclusively.

In cities targeted by ICE, empty desks and school disruptions follow One in 5 students in Charlotte missed school after a recent ICE crackdown began. It’s the latest city where schools felt the impact of Trump’s deportation effort.

A Wash Post review found instances of parents arrested near campuses in at least 10 states so far this year. Actions near campuses—which include shooting a man, releasing tear gas and engaging in a car chase—have prompted lockdowns. @justinemcdaniel.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...

In the year 2025, the number of US billionaires is 867.
They possess $7.6 trillion.
If we ate them and divvy up their collective assets, every American would receive a little more than $22k

I'm not saying you have to make a decision on it now.

Just think about it.

I'm doing this too with text as well as image posts. I've been thinking of it as a way to contribute to our collective learning in this sphere, esp. in the face of misinfo.

I get that. As a longtime copyeditor and fact-checker, when I can I try ask for location or other ID that gives clear context.
