This is at which HQ location? I know they have branches of the organization all over ... tentacles that are far reaching ...

Little man Johnson does not need ONE democratic vote to pass a standalone bill to pay our military.

These are disgusting, despicable, human beings.

"Nobody will have to work!" ... (but you'll be broke and homeless 🤷‍♂️)

"The homeless are criminals and drug addicts! Get them off the streets!" (and into prisons where we can pay far more to house them and never get them any help or hope)

Perfect example ... the more ubiquitous inflight WiFi became, the more the time on the flight was expected to be "work" time. I wish more people realized that if we don't push back, the ruling class will work everyone literally to death, and replace you and just keep going.

If you're blaming some external force rather than engaging honestly around sex, sexuality and consent, it's easy to dupe yourself that everything is covered.

These systems are easy to get around and about as much protection as the rhythm method.

everyone excitedly adopting AI is sewing the seeds of their own oppression.

Nicely making up for those of us who got "absolutely nothing done before 10am" 🤣

Exactly right. That's always been his plan. It's why he loves tariffs. It focuses everyone on having to beg and plead and come to his terms for reprieve.

We'd be in a financial free fall without the bubble. I expect the fully corrupt Trump administration to do anything and everything to try to keep it going.

I think we misspelled "create". It will create climate change. 😞

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.
