I returned to facebook because it’s definitely more community interactive. Bluesky is a nice choir repeating the same hymns over and over to the point it’s mind numbing “elevator music”. A few voices are heard and recognized while the rest of us stand at the sidelines cheering. I need more. Ciao

I really hoped that Bluesky would be a healthy alternative from the Zuckerberg META platforms but in my experience it’s less of community and more of a place where little megaphones try futily to compete with the big ones. In this moment of peril we’re in, we need to pull together not compete

I wonder how MAGAT parents with special needs kids are going to feel when they learn that their education is getting axed - along with speech & language and physical therapies. Their kids will sit home regressing and parents will have to pay for expensive daycare while they work.

If organization heads don’t have the courage to do what’s right for vulnerable kids then they need to find another line of work. “First they came for the …”

NEW — I spoke to a staffer at the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) about DOJ's threat to pull funding if the org didn't comply with Trump's DEI executive order, and how org leadership rolled over. "Rather than fight back, we chose to sacrifice trans children," they said.

I DETEST 🍊💩 but subscribe to his email list. What malarkey that I’m so loyal that my opinion gives me privilege. I guess the MAGATS eat this up because this has been his ploy for years. What’s this about ending income tax??? Today’s email :

wtf!!!! I haven’t had time to verify this yet but if it’s true, it’s mind boggling. Besides the obvious issues with this, is the presidency a job that allows him taking on another full time job in a field he has zip experience in? Put this guy in a padded room!!! #🍊💩 #hesinsane

THIS is the way our public servants need to respond to the 🍊💩’s illegal and unconstitutional firings

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Just give the 🍊💩 a “Panama ♥️ Trump” teeshirt and call it good. All he really wants is adoration (and to cause as much pain as possible while profiting from it) #theateroftheabsurd #trump

Has anyone considered how these massive layoffs across Federal agencies are going to impact our economy? The personal upheaval and challenge of finding jobs with a glut of competition and with highly specialized skills is one thing. But it’s going to ripple out across the economy #juststupid #🍊💩

More budgetary stupidity. Pay 2 million workers not to work - so we’re getting nothing for our money except satisfying 🍊💩’s desire for a totally loyal workforce. Not to mention glutting the job market with people with highly specialized skills #stupid # exceptionally stupid

He calls it: White Christian nationalism

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

I stand for trans — and every other human right. Trump doesn’t care about the impact on anyone. He just enjoys throwing red meat to his acolytes, enjoying his power to create anger and hatred.

They have no ethics. They have no moral base within themselves. Their stances are insubstantial and are only reflective of what benefits them in the moment. They are LIARS

I wonder what all the MAGA sailors in the fishing industry here in Newport think about this?

Elon, et al. are out to privatize everything—as much as possible. Why do you think that is? As you consider your answer remember: Government finance prioritizes accountability & transparency, while private-sector finance focuses on profitability & shareholder value. Who’s in this administration?

Hey Musk! Here’s some wasteful spending we should eliminate But nah, instead end programs to vaccinate children and provide for basic needs of the world’s most impoverished. That makes sense (if you’re a heartless sociopath)

The US government bailed out Tesla with $465 million. One SpaceX contract with US government is worth $5.6 billion, and there are more. Talking about frivolous spending of our money. It took Tesla 17 years to become profitable and it took SpaceX 15 years. Musk is raiding our treasury to get more.
