We are watching Donald Trump, the president of the United States, start an international conflict over Greenland because Norway (a country that does not own Greenland) wouldn't give him the Nobel peace prize.

[Bev 🇨🇦 @Garnet_2203]

I was born in 1961 too.
And this version of the past is a myth.

Kids did have food allergies we just didn’t have the science to name them.
I lost a brother before he was two because medicine didn’t yet understand what allergy killed him.

Trans kids didn’t “not exist.”
They hid. They were shamed. Many never survived adolescence.

Violence didn’t start with social media.
Bullying, racism, misogyny, and abuse were simply normalized and ignored.

Families didn’t stay together because things were better
they stayed together because women and children had fewer choices.

And no, it wasn’t just “Merry Christmas.”
We said Happy Holidays. Season’s Greetings. Yuletide.
Nobody lost their mind. Nobody felt threatened. We just… lived.

I rode buses and subways too
they weren’t magically safer.
We just didn’t talk about what happened on them.

What really changed wasn’t people.
It was visibility.

Data replaced denial.
Voices replaced silence.
And accountability replaced nostalgia.

The past wasn’t safer.
It was quieter because suffering had nowhere to go.

I don’t want a time machine.
I want a future where we stop confusing silence with peace.

Stop being such a boomer.

Morgan Stanley is seeing:
🔹Domestic business investment rebounding, especially in manufacturing.
🔹“A boom in large-scale infrastructure”
🔹Higher GDP projection because of Biden policy

Bidenomics, man. More jobs. Lower costs. Fast recovery and growth

Progress! Everyone who fought the industry price gouging on this one, great job! Unfortunately there's plenty more battles ahead.

Eli Lilly will cap the out-of-pocket cost of its insulin at $35 a month, the drugmaker says. https://t.co/sTRComASc9

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Republicans on the Hill like to talk about the deficit.

Well, if you add up their plans so far, they’ll add $3 trillion to the debt.

It's mostly going to rich folks and Big Pharma.

My budget will reduce the deficit by $2 trillion.

What's in the rest of theirs?

[Kevin Kosty @KevinKostyCT]

@AdamKinzinger @POTUS The very article you linked to says it was backfilled by drones. This tweet is a little over-dramatic.

Lmao at a billionaire earnestly trying to sell people on the idea that “free speech” is actually a $8/mo subscription plan

Memo to the media: Please don't say inflation is at a 40-year high without also mentioning that corporate profits are at a 70-year high. Give the people the full picture.

[Ned Lamont @NedLamont]

No confusion for me, I support Roe v. Wade.

I will make sure reproductive rights are protected as long as I am Governor.

The CT media should really stop repeating this lie: QI never went away, so Bob can’t “restore it.” What Bob is advocating for is a law to bar victims of intentional police misconduct from even having a day in court.

Corporate profits only accounted for roughly 11% of price growth from 1979 to 2019.

Today, record corporate profits account for 53.9% of price increases.

Folks, corporate greed is driving inflation, not workers asking for better wages.
