Hoping I’m wrong about how this is about to go…
This is what integrity looks like. #resist

Yeah leaders should be listeners but not followers.
if your grand approach to politics is bloodless poll-testing so that you're always aligned with wherever public opinion happens to be, you've already lost

Realized how weird casual conversations are now. Seat next to me on my Bogota to Atlanta flight said he was coming back with his wife who is from Colombia. Then he added she got her US citizenship “the right way”🧐. Weird. I guess she didn’t earn it on a reality game show or something?

Yes, everywhere else VAT is shown on the receipt.
personally would like to see every store show what part of the price increase is due to tariffs bc if these tariffs ever come down, i need to see that price go right back down

Lol yep. But those were not the women they wanted to have babies…
I’m old enough to remember when conservatives got mad because they thought women were having babies to get cash
The Trump administration is assessing ways to persuade women in the U.S. to have more children, as a movement grows on the right to reverse declining birthrates and push conservative family values. Some pitched ideas include cash baby bonuses and menstrual cycle classes. nyti.ms/4jh3UAR

Isn’t there supposed to be a rule of 3? Waiting to see what other older world leaders die. 🤞🏼

The guy who ran a fake university wants to tell HARVARD how to run a university…

Just imagine.

The problem with knowing history is that we are doomed to watch others who don’t know it repeat it because of evil people who want it repeated.
I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.

AOC on Elon Musk:

"Starlink satellites are already kinda fallin' out of the sky...He has an enormous conflict of interest with these contracts. He's going in, cutting these contracts, and giving them to himself and acting like he's some kind of good guy. It's not the case."

BOOM!

Used to be that you had to go to relativity or quantum mechanics for online weirdos to ascribe mystical properties to science they didn't really understand, now all it takes is saying "machine learning"

So much this.
We all like to yell at the Democrats, but it’s really Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune who are letting Elon Musk and his faceless goon squad make a mockery of their power as leaders of a coequal branch without uttering a peep or lifting a finger.
