My alma mater has a point although I'd start with Jane Austin and Don Quixote instead of Plato. Also, I might throw in Confederacy of Dunces. It's not on the list but should be. #books

So instead of complaining about how much we cost billionaires, let's think about how much billionaires cost us! #fascism
All hail an anti-corruption king!

The work @adambonica.bsky.social did in 2025 on exposing the costs of campaign corruption, the false promises of "moderation," the courts, and so much more has been constantly fresh, clear, and astounding.

Democratic socialism core tenets involve blending socialist goals (social control of key industries, economic equality, worker power) with democratic processes (elections), advocating for a mixed economy with strong social safety nets like universal healthcare, free education, and robust unions.

And detainees are held for much long periods of time than needed so that these companies can charge more and make billions extra. It’s state sanctioned human trafficking.

MSNOW reported the pipe bomber was a trump supporter. Marcy Wheeler pointed out the 22-day gap missing from the arrest affidavit. Now DoJ wants you to believe this guy has no political affiliation?

I don't understand our obsession with Venezuela and Greenland. I guess Trump wants to line his pockets with their oil and minerals.
They’re again advocating against Denmark when it comes to Greenland

It might have to do with the Nightmare Before Christmas deportation ads the White House has been posting.
Look….. I know I’m an adult so it’s different…… but I feel like this year’s Christmas is the least Christmas-y I’ve ever experienced.

Personally, because of all of the horror we’ve had this year. But also commercially, I feel like even companies are phoning it in or not even acknowledging it.

I just read DOJ release EFTA00025010 received in 2020. The woman states that Trump paid her uncle and Epstein to rape her when she was 13 and pregnant, and that Trump witnessed as her newborn baby was murdered and thrown from a yacht into Lake Mich. Maybe that's what DOJ references here. #Trump

DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:

"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."
