The federal government doesn’t have to borrow money scottcdunn.substack.com/p/the-federa...

Do you know how hard it is to get an electrician, a plumber or an HVAC mechanic? For the kids out there, work with your hands. Get your hands dirty. No matter how advanced civilization is, someone still has to turn a wrench.

Capitalism makes us adversaries. Socialism reminds us that we're human.

It takes at least 2x as much effort to be mean to someone as to be nice to the same person. Being mean isn't the where the effort is. Looking over your shoulder and losing sleep is where the effort goes.

El-Sayed and Talarico would have a defamation case that is 100 times stronger than the one that got CBS to hand $15 million to Trump.

It's True, Trumpster.......

The Citadel of American Supremacy scottcdunn.substack.com/p/the-citade...

I think it'd be cool if we talked about all of the powerful people who enable Trump.

El Sayed did NOT call the guy a stupid asshole. He calmly asked him questions and allowed the gentleman to show the world himself that he was a stupid asshole.

The answer is SIX. Inflation has outpaced wage growth for 6 consecutive months.

So, the word from the Justice Department is that it wants the State of California to keep citizens, who are legally registered, from being able to vote. Good we have this on record.

140 days of protests triggered by a corrupt kushner/trump family luxury island deal… yet 🇺🇸 media is essentially crickets 🦗 🦗

Trump is the one who filed this lawsuit. Now he refuses to participate in discovery while his sons and daughter duck discovery subpoenas.

Congressman Ted Lieu Is Right.....

The name of the band? Lobotomy.

The United States would rather bomb Iran than build a bridge scottcdunn.substack.com/p/the-united...

It is a mystery to me why some people dubbed Marco Rubio as the one sane, thoughtful and reasonable person in the Trump admin despite not a shred of demonstrable objective evidence to support that position since the day he has been in office.

Can we please talk about the people who enable Trump?

John Pavlovitz Is Spot On......

With the great @kennymayne.bsky.social on Lake Washington a couple summers ago. A perfect day!

I wonder if they'll replace her with AI.

If you're rooting for Ukraine you mean to say, "I want Wall Street to carve up Russia into 12 little countries that are much easier to loot."

February 5, 2025. Trump announces he is going to build a new ballroom at the WH and pay for it with his own money: “It’s going to cost nothing. I will spend the whole thing myself.”

Duran: This is the planned site of the Triumphal arch. What triumph is there in continuing to position our military against their own people? He said he wants snipers on there. Who are they meant to be looking at through their scopes?

THIS 👇 TOO......

So you think you’re getting what you want scottcdunn.substack.com/p/so-you-thi...

Some big accounts that speak to progressive politics on X are beginning to notice that X is deciding who has reach. I'm suggesting to them that they come here to Blue Sky. (spell checker with tab completion actually works here - fails on X).

The attack on Omar should have everyone up in arms. Trump is openly trying to deport someone for opposing him www.nytimes.com/2026/10/16/o...

this only happens if we VOTE

I'm kind of done with X. It's a place where progressive voices go to drown. I'm going to spend more time here for a while and see if my disposition changes.

Hey @deanbaker13.bsky.social. You might be familiar with this logic: "Treasury bonds are therefore a gift, offered to people with money. If you don’t have money, or not enough of it, you can’t buy government bonds. If you have money to spare, you can." www.nakedcapitalism.com/2026/10/if-o...

Agreed.......

Holy shit. Someone has decompiled the Adobe suite, rebuilt it in Rust and released it as open source. Either all software is dead or the US copyright laws are about to receive an update. getartcraft.com/apps
