Democrats are MIA—just when the country needs them to counter the Trump-Musk blitzkrieg

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position.

You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

It’s not just Space X. Musk was able to save Tesla because of a loan from the Dept of Energy. Here he is in 2013 filled with gratitude for the federal agency & the taxpayers who saved his business.

Malcolm X was assassinated 60 yrs ago today. See his timeless wisdom on the true meaning of “progress.”

“If you stick a knife 9 inches in & take it out 6—that’s not progress. Progress is healing the wound. They wont even admit the knife is there.”

They use #DEI instead of #Diversity, #Equity, and #Inclusion, much like #BLM for #BlackLivesMatter, to detach the humanity of those encompassed by these important causes.

Elon Musk is now trying to flip the balance of power on the top court in one of the country’s most important swing states.

Read @ariberman.bsky.social on the very high stakes in Wisconsin and the Tesla founder's plot to buy the state supreme court.

On Tuesday, President Trump signed an executive order on in vitro fertilization. Despite the executive order’s claims that it’s “expanding access” to the procedure, it does not actually do that.

“Don’t be fooled by Trump and Republicans pretending to care about protecting IVF."
Trump’s order to expand IVF access does not expand IVF access
Advocates say if he was serious about IVF there's more he could do to actually help.

#StraightWhiteMalePrivilege is #RFKjr, someone without a health and science degree to speak authoritatively on those subjects, leading others to believe and propagate racist and unscientific conspiracy theories.
