Here is how platforms die: First, they are good to their users; then they abuse their users to make things better for their business customers; finally, they abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves. Then, they die.

"The Nation would have no recourse to deter a President from inciting his supporters during a State of the Union address to kill opposing lawmakers – thereby hamstringing any impeachment proceeding – to ensure that he remains in office unlawfully."

Michael Jackson really had a lovely baritone voice. Wish he recorded more songs using it. I missed this song when he released 2000 Watts on October 30, 2001, I like it. #Music

One of the biggest lies is that Dems are bad at messaging. The reality is that there are lots of Dems who are talking about the accomplishments of the Biden admin. The problem is that Dems’ messaging simply isn’t being amplified by the corporate media monopolies like GOP’s lies.

Mike Johnson is either hiding all his finances -- or is so broke that he's highly susceptible to bribes and corruption.
Mike Johnson would never pass a regular federal security clearance.
Mike Johnson is another George Santos -- except Johnson is now the Speaker of the House.

I was just caught behind an old guy counting out exact change and, instead of being annoyed (I don't want to do my work today no way), I just kind of marveled by how much society must have changed since that guy was a kid.
And then, marveled at how much it's changed since I was.

The Trump-era rollback of banking regulations was a big mistake.
The proof? Silicon Valley Bank's implosion.
The least Congress can do now is help prevent this type of meltdown from happening again by restoring Dodd-Frank regulations for all banks — regardless of their size.

Today is #EqualPayDay—the day the avg (white) woman must work into 2023 to earn what the avg man earned in 2022. That's 2.5 months more.😳

•Black women earn: $.64
•Multiracial women earn: $.63
•Latino women earn: $.57
We have so much work

White supremacy and antisemitic groups are promoting a day of hate against Jews tomorrow on Shabbos, the holiest day of the week for the Jewish people.

There are a several social and political issues that concern me, and they all center around basic human rights. Each and every one of those rights are threatened by philosophies that grow from one, fetid root: Theocracy.

American evangelicals are like bulls in a china shop, drunk on power. They’re overplaying their hand in red states with draconian theocratic legislation. The backlash coming for them will be harsh. They’ll call it persecution. The rest of us will call it defense of civil liberties.
