Trump literally broke TikTok so he could take credit for fixing it. It's disgusting. It's gaslighting. It's scamming & cheating. He's like a drug dealer who steals your stash and then helps you look for it. FUCK DJT!

What’s the difference between a gov controlling an algorithm, silently eliminating reach for things it doesn’t like, vs the same gov using its power, to demand that the platform remove the things it doesn’t like.? In China they are overt. With TikTok in the US, they control silently

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

Without question. He is hiding bad stuff and our enemies will use that. If he was willing to all but admit to rape and pay a settlement to keep his job at Fox…what will he do to keep his job as SecDef?

Still wild to me that so many "savvy" folks on left and right have bought into the idea that online misinformation is overblown and doesn't really matter. From lies about migrants to transgender people to crime to election denial to climate denial, it's literally driving our country's politics.

1/7 Marjorie Taylor Greene, four years ago, you lied to her just as you are doing now. This tragedy rests on your shoulders and the lies you fed the American people about the election being stolen.

As the January 6th riots fall further into the past, Republicans are doing everything they can to whitewash their treason. We can’t let them. We remember what they did, and we will never let them, or the American people, forget.

I dread the daily drama. The government run by tweets. The oligarchy plundering the country. The ignorant masses making excuses for the imbecile they exalted. I’m embarrassed. I’m ashamed.

When Hillary lost, she conceded graciously and then went for a walk in the woods. When Kamala lost, she conceded graciously and then got back work as our VP. When Trump lost, he wouldn’t concede and then incited a deadly attack on our Capitol.

I am a gun owner. I’ve been going to the range since I was a small child. But this… this is insanity. Our children are being shot in their schools. Our women are being gunned downed by abusive partners. And this is their response??? The price for this dogmatic madness is paid in lives.

What I don't get is the people of European descent thinking they have more rights to the US than any other immigrants. Take Trump, whose mother was Scottish, and all grandparents from Scotland or Germany. He thinks he has more claim to USA than African-descendants who have been here for 3-400 years.

You would have to be pretty ignorant about Jefferson not to at least suspect that this was fake. Jefferson notoriously attracted criticism for declining to issue public proclamarions calling for prayer during his presidency, beliving they improperly entangled government and religion.

MAGA wants mega wage slaves working a whopping 80-hour week for lower pay. These "work ethic" thugs hide behind "Biblical values & diversity" to exploit foreign workers—undercutting, bullying overseas, skipping overtime, pushing impossible standards, plus micromanaging; that's wage slavery, Elon:👇 🤑

Fascist republicans cut funding from child cancer research. Bathroom rug head Russian asset Rand Paul was blocking funding for the original stand-alone child cancer research bill, he held it up in the Senate. When they tell you they care about kids, tell them to STFU.

Workers create the wealth, but billionaires take the credit. It’s not talent or innovation—it’s exploitation. Until wealth is shared fairly, we’ll keep asking: Why do so few have so much, while so many have so little?

There is absolutely no doubt that Elon Musk is a Nazi and an anti-semite -- and he is the President-elect of the United States. This is beyond concerning. I beg you to re-post this so that every single American is aware of the fact that Musk is a Nazi and that his colleagues are, too.
