Centrist Democrat, Mother and Grandmother who wants a better world for them. Horrified with what has happened to our politics and country. Made it through the first 4 years of Trump, not sure if I can survive another 4 years without xanax full time

If this is happening at the Centre for Disease Control and military troops are going to foodbanks, imagine the condition US government agencies are in that are tasked with managing financial market risks

When this era is over, don't forget the businessmen who were complicit in crimes against humanity, dumping immigrants in torturous African prisons. After WWII, the U.S. tried German corporate executives who cooperated with the Nazi horror. (IG Farber trial at Nuremburg below)

Their goal is to turn the United States into a "Wealthy Whites and Christians Only" country.

They literally don't give a shit about anyone else.

Which is why they're going to fail.

HUGELY.

I'm late to this masterpiece by @lopatto.bsky.social but it's a series of darts sticking Bari Weiss to the bullseye. A totally different viewpoint on why she's been put in charge of CBS News and why she will regret that forever👏👏👏👏👏 www.theverge.com/business/793...
Memo to Bari Weiss Re: CBS News: You’re doomed
Bari Weiss has sold her company, The Free Press, to manage the decline of broadcast news at CBS. How many ways can it go wrong?

They have fired the staff of the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report and 70 Epidemic Intelligence Service officers, who are disease detectives that respond to outbreaks around the world.

I cannot emphasize enough how dangerous it is to dismantle our disease surveillance infrastructure.

A rave review for "1929," the new @andrewrsorkin.bsky.social account of the crash that helped touch off the Great Depression. "It is one of the best narrative histories I’ve read," writes Judge Glock. www.wsj.com/arts-culture...
‘1929’ Review: Year of the Crash
The plummet of the stock market in October 1929 created panic and scandal. Bigger shocks were yet to come.
