I have called myself a Social Democrat, because I like Bernie. But I think Democratic Capitalist would be a better term. Just about anything that is not MAGA will do. I'll follow back most of you but give me time. I'm old and slow.

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

Trump is our enemy. He’s the enemy of the free world. We must have the courage to publicly state this truth. Me, earlier today. Have a listen.👇https://x.com/timesradio/status/2111865461860446599?s=12

Billionaire families have spent $1.7 BILLION on the 2026 midterms so far — a 5,200% increase since the 2010 midterms. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day. Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.

Apparently some things never change—because there's always a small part of the population that fucks it up for everyone else. This is why the popular vote has to be the way a President is elected; the will of the people is being overridden by a third of the country.

awaii enacted a law that could neuter Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live. www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1fP...

Before Citizens United, the top 15 political contributors spent just $15 million on the midterm election. Now, the top 15 have spent $962 MILLION. That's up 6,400%. THIS is why our system is so rigged. We really, really have to end Citizens United and tax the rich.

We didn't lose a decade, we lost 60-75 yrs of societal progress, and we lost civility, decency and moral compass. None is coming back in foreseable future. An act of one man, the powerful concealed political machinery of the ultra-rich, and an army of sycopants behind him willing to serve the king.

So, the disinformation bots have found BlueSky. If you believe this folks, you need to do more careful research. A good starting place might be political historian Heather Cox Richardson.
