Amazing pattern 👇

Incomprehensible that #GOP wants to make these trade imbalances even worse with its #BBB. Demolishing manufacturing and irreplaceable energy infrastructure jobs in favor of one-time energy extraction & export jobs is the definition of stupid.

This comparsion in the NYTimes today is pretty stark. China is racing ahead to be a high-tech exporter of 21st century technologies, while the US is doubling down on being a petro-state exporting the technologies of the 19th century: www.nytimes.com/inte...

It’s simple: The #GOP hates otters 🦦 and dolphins 🐬 and whales 🐋. And birds 🦢. And they hate fish 🐟 🐟 🐟.

They hate people too; especially children (who happen to love wild animals).

Republicans are aiming next to dismantle the marine mammal protection act, which protects whales, dolphins, manatees, polar bears, and sea otters.. among other ocean wildlife. 🦦

Seriously wondering WTF Cote is doing walking down Market Street “late at night” 5 nights a week. Does he live there? It’s a retail/financial district — nothing is open “late at night,” 5 nights a week.

I’m old enough to remember when the terms “nerd” and “dork” referred to people who were obsessed with accurate information on a given topic.

Now it refers to fascist tech bros punching down. Language changes, I guess…

Republicans declare themselves patriots, then turn around and block the paychecks of the men and women who defend America.

And what’s really wild, some of those same troops keep voting red while getting screwed over again and again.

Unconstitutionally taking money that the law says must be spent on one purpose & using it for something else—when it's to establish personalist control over the FUCKING MILITARY—is about as dangerous a constitutional crisis/failure as you can imagine

Via: www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...
The Office of Management and Budget sent a notification to Congress about their intent to use research and development funds to pay members of the military, two sources with direct knowledge tell NBC News. A spokesperson for the OMB confirmed to NBC News that it plans to use the research and development funds and that there are two years' worth of funds available within the Department of Defense.

Dear @mbenioff.bsky.social

Two facts seem relevant:
-Crime in SF is at HISTORIC LOWS. (You’d know that if you lived here).

-Federal troops CANNOT perform domestic policing. (factually.co/fact-checks/...).

Please return to being a Hawaiian billionaire & leave living in the real world to the pros.
Marc Benioff says Trump should send National Guard to San Francisco

antifa bogeyman in nutshell: label whomever opposition is "antifa" — in this case Resistance 2.0 "No Kings" folks — creating pretext to target them w/ state/vigilante violence

also sews division, w/ moderates fretting abt appearing too extreme, making them punch left, undercutting solidarity

After 50,000 miles, I’ve needed a mechanic once. This was in tiny “town” surrounded by National Forest. The shop replaced the starter battery (which is a regular car ignition battery) with ease and i was back on the road…

EV’s require *very* little maintenance.
