You know, Elon, if you just paid your taxes, we could give those kids food and healthcare, things far more valuable than stock in a government-welfare-dependent company that is bound to go bankrupt eventually.

Just saw an exchange every politician should note. Someone said their dad was considering Ashley Moody because of negative ads about Angie Nixon. Angie showed up in the replies, addressed his concerns & made it personal. People want to feel heard, not talked at & Angie’s response is perfection 🔥

This is how the new CBS keeps people from remembering that the longest serving GOP Speaker of the House ultimately went to jail for covering up child rape. Which is apparently always in season.

FUN FACT: The Bible doesn't say *anything* about abortion. Ever. Well, except for the time God provides a handy recipe for a magic potion to induce an involuntary one. Numbers 5:11-31

White men rule this nation and are the top CEOs across the top corporations. They make the most money, own the most real estate, and are the truly elite. This grievance politics is for the MAGA white men who feel cheated and don't understand that their fellow white men are screwing them.

We need to have such a turnout that Trump won't be able to rig it. We know he's going to try. We also know that State Governments have been gaming out how to deal with his attempts. If he succeeds in stealing voting machines and rig the election, we should have a general strike. Shut it all down.
