NEW: PublicSquare, a website that lets you search for businesses in your community that explicitly want you to know they endorse Trump/MAGA values, is backfiring as people use it to boycott those businesses. www.huffpost.com/entry/public...

Less government oversight in critical areas leaves gaps to be filled by businesses that can tell you anything they want to make a buck, even if it means children dying from preventable diseases like polio and measles. 😥

Criminals who become public servants clearly have no empathy or concern for those they are paid to serve .

Trump’s commerce secretary Howard Lutnick says if Social Security skipped a check, his mother-in-law wouldn’t complain—and if you would, it indicates you are probably a fraudster. Insane.

Let’s not forget that Trump is a malignant narcissist. At his core is a weak, frightened small person hungry for approval. If he feels his MAGA base is turning on him for bad decisions, he just might relent. 1/2

So encourage people who voted for him, to get loud and blame the oligarchs as the real enemies. It shifts the blame and lets them save face. I know… just as long as we can get this ship going in a better direction. 2/2

Let’s not pretend this worked the first time and do it again. He has a lifetime of doing his economics homework.

The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979.  Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth.  Trickle down economics was always a hoax.

If this # is correct, that’s .0019% of athletes. I’m for a level playing field. Changes before puberty I believe keep it level. After, I need to educate myself on how to keep it fair. But, I’m willing to see how it can be worked out like… not throw away democracy because I don’t understand it.

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all." -- Arthur C. Clarke, born #OTD 1917

News should be journalist centric, not network centric. Journalists are independent & Bsky acnt. viewership numbers are tracked. They receive micropayments (like Spotify music artists) for ea. view from ad review on Bluesky. Journalists can choose what ads to show or block. The best rise to the top.

The news industry is really difficult financially. @bluesky may be a new path forward. Anyone have any ideas how to make it a platform where media companies want to post news first ? And a platform where reporters, commentators, etc can make a living ?
