The problem in every country is the same For the last 50 years the billionaires have demanded ever higher profits Their profits are now so high the Government can't afford basic services But those billionaires bribe Politicians So the Government won't take action against them

When we get it all back And we will 💯 We HAVE to do some constitutional amending asap Especially concerning the supreme court Because Congress can't do what we NEED them to do with that body unless we change the entire section on SCOTUS 1 swipe It's possible with the right ppl

I also take from this: This was meaningful gesture, as unlike American cyclists who are assholy as car-driving counterparts… Copenhagen cyclists ACTUALLY PAY ATTENTION TO TRAFFIC SIGNALS. It’s not just the vehicle. It’s the attitude. American biking is dangerous because Americans are dangerous.

Bernie Sanders wants Americans to own a share of the AI economy. His proposal: an AI Sovereign Wealth Fund that takes stakes in major AI companies and pays dividends to citizens. "When a public resource generates wealth, the public should share in that wealth."

God/Jesus: "Flatter me and I will save you." Human: "Save me from what?" God/Jesus: "Me."

“He takes your punishment upon Himself.” Cool. Quick question: Who exactly is punishing us? Christianity: God creates the rules, decides you’ve broken them, sentences you to eternal punishment, then offers to save you from the punishment he created.

You covered it, but I’ll add that a large amount of people live paycheck to paycheck and their reality is survival mode. It is going to get worse. Cynicism is a win for the status quo so keep ur head in the game. Top v bottom is paramount. Left v Right is a distraction that favors those that benefit

Any sweeping systemic change you want to make in the United States has to begin with adding seats to the Supreme Court in 2029. No major reform bill will survive the current court. No civil rights law, no anti-corruption law, no wealth tax, nothing.

When Democrats take control, corporate media and their MAGA billionaire owners must be investigated and punished for their role in enabling fascism.

100% agree !

Mexico is considering banning dual citizens from running for high-ranking office like President and I agree. One should need to give up the other citizenship to qualify. We need to mitigate from AIPAC loyalists infecting our government.

Just got another text from a Dem PAC asking for $. I used to give. No more. Not since I understood my r.o.i. I need direct action. I need a “concret” plan Not $ to a stranger doing ? Ask me to knock doors Ask me to print fliers.

How about every Democrat in the House present articles of impeachment when they get back in September. All with different crimes Trump has committed. That’s what I fucking want. I’m done with this BULLSHIT!

I have always (tho’ some Green) Voted Dem. But it is the Opponents to Trump that Should come together. The Dems are not trusted. Or reliable THEY are responsible for the rise of Trump. The Party must be renewed.

The thing about ripping out bike lanes is it doesn't stop us from biking, it just makes it more dangerous. And if I feel unsafe, I take the lane.
