It’s frustrating to watch interviews like the one between the @thedailyshow.com’s Jon Stewart & @elizkolbert.bsky.social tonight, suggesting we don’t know the solutions to the #ClimateCrisis, & better solutions aren’t “politically viable.” WE KNOW THE SOLUTIONS, AND ONLY CORRUPTION MAKES THEM HARD.

This is why I don’t donate to them. I’m afraid that if I do, I will get even more trash texts and spam emails.
A message to the Democratic Party.
As a life long Dem voter, may I suggest that y’all STOP the damn robo-texts during all family holidays.
We aren’t stupid.
Stop acting like we think it’s YOU, cause we know you are with your family and not in DC.
Take note.

Reports are that folks spent a record amount this Black Friday — but what’s being buried deep in every story — everything is more expensive and people are buying less items.

Also notable — credit card debt and delinquencies have been rising and more folks are using the ‘buy now pay later’ options.

Bookmark this for the investigations to come: the Trump team’s boat bombings trace back to at least 2018. That’s when White House officials asked me & others about whether they could do something like this.

We said it was illegal then. Now they’ve done it anyway.
