Joe Manchin drives a Maserati, owns a yacht and took in $500k in dividends last year. Yet his state relies on federal aid for 35% of its revenues and has among the lowest socio-economic indicators in the nation. And Manchin sabotages Biden's BBB. What's wrong with this picture?
So on top of thinking former President Obama shouldn’t identify as black because he didn’t have a relationship with his black father, Sage Steele also thinks female journalists who dress a certain way “know what you’re doing when you’re putting that outfit on.”
Clown behavior.
By kneeling, Colin Kaepernick let us do the work for him.
He didn’t need to belabor the point, he just let us show ourselves.
He saw something ugly in us that we didn’t and still don’t want to see.
And he was right.

A very bizarre ending to a wild week in Washington:
@mtg heckles Democrats. And they fire back on Capitol steps

We started our $70k min wage with about 130 employees in Seattle.
It worked so well we expanded it to a new Boise office, where the cost of living is lower but people deserve good pay all the same.
We now have about 200 employees

I’m sure all of the people who say #DaunteWright deserved to be shot for not obeying officers think that the US police should have opened fire and killed all of the Trumpites who disobeyed orders and stormed the US Capitol on January 6. Right?
As we get ready for week two of the @NRA's bankruptcy trial, here's a thread recapping what we know and what we don't. One thing is clear: the NRA saw bankruptcy as a “get-out-of-jail-free” card, but it's looking more and more like a catastrophic mistake. nytimes.com/2021/04/11/us/…
"Trump's inner circle of elite criminals guided the Jan 6 attacks. They did it publicly. But they were not arrested by the FBI or even mentioned in the Senate hearings. Why are they not subject to repercussions or investigation?" -- @gaslitnationpatreon.com/posts/wheres-w…

@Kasparov63 I would also work with allies to ground all travel of Russian citizens out of the country, revoke all Russian passports, and expel Russians in countries where they don't have visa or citizenship. (Tourists, business trips, etc) landlock the country to only it's axis partners
@olliecarroll Historically Texas and California were part of Mexico. Should the world just excuse an invasion by Mexico if they decided they wanted it back?
Social science teaches us that a factor in people's willingness to express the views they actually hold is their sense of how many others hold that view. Which is one reason street demonstrations — and coverage of them — matter. They can shift that sense.
@OnkarIsParmar @ZelenskyyUa To protect itself from being invaded. Such as is happening right now. When Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons, it was guaranteed its independence &sovereignty by Russia. Russia promised never to invade. Guess what is happening? Appeasement doesn't work. Ask Hitler & Putin.
@MikeHoran73@IAPonomarenko Do we stand with them? I feel like we're just watching, and doing nothing. What good are our prayers when they are getting slaughtered? This reminds me of some quote abt how evil thrives on the indifference of good men 😔
China just announced its support of Russia's attack on Ukraine. I will now look at every product I buy and if made in China, I will not buy it any longer. Time to punish these countries that intend harm to Democracy around the world.
The Senate just passed a $768 billion defense budget. Much of that cash will get funneled to military contractors.
Meanwhile, at least 15 lawmakers who shape defense policy have investments in military contractors.
How is this okay?
Elon Musk is not a self made man. He was born into a rich family who gave him the money to start his company. He hasn’t done a damn thing for anyone but himself.
