They're scared to have real people from the working class in Washington because they know we'll challenge the status quo at every turn. The government we have now doesn't work for everyday people. It works fine for the wealthy. They're scared of losing that.

This AI bullshit needs to be shut down completely. None of this was ever tested before it was put into mass implementation.

President Donald Trump has called on New Mexico to change its name to "New America" — the latest example of him seeking geographical name changes that fit his political agenda. https://cnn.it/4eFiJgk

@cnn.com #SaraSidner That's really sad the only option #Elon and #Dario can come up with is giving away money without changing their model that the people clearly do not want. Other options do exist and can work with the people. They instead want to follow the king or mafia model instead. #noKings

WELKER: Who do you think is to blame for the disruption to the Starlink and Starshield services? ZELENSKYY: Of course the message came from the American government WELKER: Has the system been fully restored? ZELENSKYY: No, no. We have limitations.

From the Tulsa Oklahoma #nokings protest yesterday. Had a robust crowd that come out to help oust the wannabe king in this normally red state. Someone gave me a #ICE safety whistle and went wild with it as well as holding the sign. Saved my voice this go around. #Midterms #VOTE

Trump waiving sanctions against Russia is the most predictable thing ever. The silence of some GOP elected officials is likewise the most predictable thing. Throw the trash out in November. This isn’t funny anymore

Kroger just announced the largest layoffs in its history, with plans to cut 3,000 employees as it ramps up use of AI. Reminder that Kroger has spent $12.3B on stock buybacks since 2019 and paid its CEO $14M last year — 417x its median worker's pay. AI is turbo-charging corporate greed.

Discovery+, one of the streamers now owned by David Ellison’s media monopoly Skydance, hiked its prices exactly one week after the merger officially closed. Employees have already been told to expect layoffs — while top executives received pay bumps. Monopolies are only good for the monopolists.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

#Cornell7 audio the rapist asked if she was sober . She said she had 10 drinks , no question is needed for this. It should have been obvious to a decent human being , instead he was a predator and his posts show this.

My recycling material was over flowing. dislike being a smaller town, we have a recycling service , but I have to take it to them. Good a had a few trash cans outside I store each type in them , then bring it, but working so much , I don't have time mostly.

The days go by so quickly, especially the weekends at this time maybe because its close to midterms, freedom from tyranny is so close. But have a lot to do and can never catch up.

With recent court filing over Cornell Rape case and Chi Phi frat house.One would think a perfect opportunity to bring to #MidTerms is passing the #ERA in enough states to give sex crimes in federal court the equality it deserves. #TitleIX piece meal protection is not enough and this rape proves it.

NEW: Today, Florida Governor DeSantis and other state officials voted to designate two leading Muslim civil rights nonprofits as “domestic terrorist organizations.” The state's actions are baseless and unconstitutional.

@cnn.com on the AI regulation or not, I have yet to hear talk about letting it in financial insistuitons. If it escaped and wiped out credit or debit or even bank accounts leaving no trace or record would destroy life as we know it.
