@elizabeth-warren.bsky.social Massachusetts constituent here. Troy Jackson looks like a good alternative. Surely it's not up to Platner to make this decision on his own. Then what's the point of a political party? This thing is beyond disappointing. Saw it coming. Please do the right thing.

@elizabeth-warren.bsky.social Please rescind your endorsement of Platner and work with the party to find a good candidate for the Senate in Maine. If Heather Cox Richardson is unwilling, perhaps someone with governmental experience.

I'm old enough to remember when you could go to a store and expect to find a knowledgeable, helpful salesperson. At Men's Wearhouse you apparently need to make an appointment. I gave up on the optician I went to for 20+ years when they stopped giving advice on frames and just pointed to the racks.

You can't have Cuba until you finish your Iran. And you've barely touched your Venezuela. Finish your Iran and Venezuela before you even think about having some Cuba. And weren't you trying to save space for Greenland? Where are you planning to put all these countries?

David Hogg: “I want a future where everybody has healthcare and people can afford a good life.” Who could disagree with this? Apparently some people can't feel successful unless others are not. Why not ensure life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for ALL? If that's socialism, bring it on!

Too many people have fell for “socialism is bad”. We need to repeat “socialism is roads”, “socialism is public schools”, “socialism is ambulances and firefighters”

"free healthcare is socialism!!" say the rich, "affordable housing is socialism!! food stamps are socialism!! libraries are socialism!! puppies and kittens are socialism!! hugs are socialism!! love is socialism!!" "huh, so socialism is actually fine?" say the poor "wait what" say the rich

Here is the video or Ronald Reagan saying church and state must remain separate.

TIL the East Wing is not the right-hand side of the White House. It was built in 1902, expanded in 1940s by FDR without congressional approval, angering the GOP. Not saying the demolition is okay, but folks seem to believe that half the White House is gone. #NoKings en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Wing

Bobby, when your uncle was president, families could live on 1 paycheck, have 2 cars, & go on vacation every yr. When I raised my family, it took 2 incomes to maintain that same lifestyle. Now it's 2 incomes just to make ends meet. Perhaps income inequality & a burning planet has something to do it.

Rarely does one encounter a review that so exactly reflects one's own experience of a book. www.michigandaily.com/arts/books/t...

The entire point of good reporting or good scholarship is to tell us something we didn’t already know and the idea that they could ever be replaced by AI tools that rely on scraping the internet database of what we *do* know is just ludicrous.
