What, exactly, are we celebrating this Fourth of July?
Our cutting off healthcare to the needy to enrich the greedy?
Our new concentration camps?
Our dying economy?
Our ditching due process?
Our corruption?
Our broken Congress?
Our corrupt Supreme Court?
Our ridiculous buffoon President?

I cannot emphasize enough how true & real this is.
In almost anywhere on the political spectrum you ID with or major issue, there’s probably a bot/troll operation to encourage your rage and vitriol.
And how/where that rage gets directed, esp understandable rage, is what they are out to influence.

People on this app get really angry every time I point out that social media manipulation is a real phenomenon that we are all stewing in and that’s having real world consequences and I’m sure part of that is engagement farmers who do that manipulation not liking people talking about it

Ironic to hear Happy Independence Day when people are being disappeared, losing their jobs, thrown off Medicaid, and their children’s school lunches snatched away, while GOP celebrates the Big Ugly Bill passing! America is broken

This 👇🏼 our disabled are terrorized for asking our government for help.
People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

Hey Congress appropriation committee members, y’all lit up tax payer dollars!
Starship blowing up is a bigger deal than you think. It’s not a prototype in a sandbox anymore, it’s a $4B NASA contract to land humans on the Moon ($2.8B initially, $4B with follow-ons). Every explosion is taxpayer-funded hardware going up in flames.

Republicans passed a package that guts $9.4 BILLION in critical funding.
They’re coming for global health, humanitarian aid, national security—& even PBS & NPR.
Let me be real clear:
What they’re cutting saves lives, keeps the world stable, and tells the truth.

Here’s the “Presidential Memorandum”:

There’s no Insurrection Act invocation; Trump is federalizing 2000 CA Nat’l Guard personnel only to “protect federal functions.”
*Without* invoking the Insurrection Act, anything more would violate the Posse Comitatus Act.
