Did You Vote For a Better Economy?

A lot of people who voted for Trump did so because they believed he would help fix the economy and immigration.
Thats not what’s happening, in fact he’s doing quite the opposite β€” his attacks on immigrants are backfiring and impacting our economy.

Trump’s All-but-Forgotten Border Wall Reaches an Angry Laredo, Texas

"Once the symbol of the president’s immigration policies, the wall has been eclipsed by his deportation efforts, but with $46.5 billion from Congress, construction is ramping up..."

"But the wall is coming β€œregardless of whether it works or not,” the mayor said.."

Our Almost-Apocalyptic Climate Future By shooting for 3 degrees Celsius of warming, the world could slide toward a more cataclysmic 4 degrees.

Lead by David Stevens: β€œAnother global conference on dealing with global warming which did no such thing. Half the delegates didn't want a mention of getting beyond fossil fuels so there is no mention of doing so.”

Fear is contagious, but so is COURAGE!

Listen to these messages from across the country thanking @houlahan.house.gov of Pennsylvania, one of the veterans reminding service members they need not follow unlawful orders.

Thank you, Congresswoman!

In cities targeted by ICE, empty desks and school disruptions follow β€” The Washington Post 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.

How is this not any different than the Gestapo?

The United States of Amnesia needs to a reminder that The Secret State of Police and ICE are not DIFFERENT.

America’s Polarization Has Become the World's Side Hustle The 'psyops' revealed by X are entirely the fault of the perverse incentives created by social media monetization programs.

"The only thing revealed by this transparency is that social media companies do not give a f*ck about this."

Our attention is the product

There are tutorials in many languages on how to exploit that for profit, not just to stir the pot

AI makes it so easy to exploit now and everyone wins but you

Brazil's Bolsonaro arrested for allegedly plotting escape ahead of prison term Brazil's Supreme Court ordered the arrest of Jair Bolsonaro, with a judge claiming the former president was intent on escaping as he was set to begin his prison sentence for leading a coup attempt.

Bolsonaro’s son calls on people to come to their house to help them fight to keep Bolsonaro out of jail. Trump seemed to know about it and was planning on meeting with him if he escaped. Too bad!! They got your dude trump. He is in jail and you can’t help him. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜πŸ’™

Comey today after his case was dismissed. He had a stark warning. He made it clear: this wasn’t vindication, it was a reminder of how close we came to losing the rule of law.
Power abused once can be abused again. We’d better take that seriously.

Enormous thanks to this big, beautiful Bluesky community! Together, we're stirring up a "good trouble" and "bending the arc of the moral universe toward justice." Especially for the most vulnerable among us, let's lean into amandla awethu (power to the people) and tikkun slam (repair the world).

Russian Unreality and American Weakness Notes from a bizarre moment of diplomatic history

We are in a bizarre moment of diplomatic history. The purported "peace plan" that appeared a few days ago beings in Russian unreality and American weakness. Demanding everything of Ukraine and nothing of Russia, its purpose is imperialism and profiteering.
