Feels ripe for government oversight.
Musk turned on a feature on X that showed country of origin.
He disabled it a couple hours later when it was revealed how many MAGA accounts aren't in the U.S.
Foreign bot disinformation machines exposed.
Seems like Twitter could have done that feature 15 years ago & we wouldn't be here today.

Your daily reminder that the fossil fuel industry is propped up by billions of dollars in U.S. government subsidies and a multimillion dollar campaign to spread climate disinformation. 💵

Why are ICE agents being paid during the shutdown, but not air traffic controllers? 🤨

Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech — rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath?
Character isn't something you tell people about.
It's something you live.

Probably the most badass thing I've ever seen!
AZ Rep Yassamin Ansari has set up a table outside of Mike Johnson’s offical Speaker Of The House office with a "Mike Johnson is using the government shutdown to cover up the Epstein Files - Change My Mind" sign!! 😆

Paying a living wage would make it so the rest of us don’t have to support these businesses with our tax dollars when their employees can afford rent, food, and utilities. We are subsidizing their success.
Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.
See the problem?

Proud of the amazing city that Portland is.

I’m hearing great things about the Ford F150 Lightning from my cousins. Ford advertising it as home back-up power is pretty cool too. ⚡️

Amen.
Newsom: The New Testament and Old Testament have one dominant thing in common—Matthew, Isaiah, Luke, Proverbs, go down the list—it’s about food, about serving those who are hungry. It’s not a suggestion; it’s core and essential to what it means to align with God’s will.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

I was just there. There were green roofs, easy clean public transit, people running incredible innovative businesses, great food & music, and great parks. The president is a lying liar who lies all the time and media needs to say this.
“The president should be removed from office because he is plainly insane.”
I mean, there is no war in Portland. There just isn’t. You can’t & won’t avoid reporting this story. But you’ll still find a way to try to report it in a way that gives him the benefit of the doubt.
And that’s wrong.

🔥💯 Pete Buttigieg in London: I didn't come here to tell everybody that things are better than they look. Things will get worse.
Yet, I'm optimistic because things have reached the point where we will have to fashion something new.
& In order to hasten that day, we better paint that picture now.

Universal childcare wouldn't just relieve working families of a massive cost burden. It improves the whole economy.
"There are a lot of reasons building a child care system that works for everyone is important to our children, to parents, to employers and to economic growth."
