BOOM: WAKE UP PEOPLE: James Talarico stood before Texas and said the quiet part out loud: Trans people are 1%, undocumented people are 1%, Muslims are 1%—we’re focused on the wrong 1%.
Billionaires and their puppet politicians pick our pockets while dividing us. Texas is listening and rallying.
Dr. King wasn’t un-alived just for being Black—he was un-alived for uniting poor people of every color against the same 1% that still thinks they own us.
Our unity is the threat. Their division is the strategy.
Texas just chose the facts.
Breaking: The Trump administration just told reporters at the Pentagon they are no longer allowed to report information if it’s not government “authorized.”
If they do not obey, they will have their credentials revoked.
Donald Trump did the following at an event in Erie, Pennsylvania today:
1. Blamed his small crowd sizes on President Biden.
2. Said people from Atlanta, Detroit, and Philadelphia cheat in elections which is why he is in Erie.
3. Called Kamala Harris a “stupid person” and has crowd chant “lock her up.”
4. Called Kamala a “communist” because he said people don’t know “what a Marxist is.”
5. Said there should be one violent day a year where cops rough people up who they think are bad and anything goes.
6. Said Kamala was born “mentally impaired” but Biden “became mentally impaired.”
7. Said “That’s why they call her Lyin' Kamala. L-Y-I-N apostrophe.”
8. Said migrants are so tough and bad people in Hollywood couldn’t even play them in a movie if they tried.
9. Said “the new thing is hydrogen cars” and when they “blow up” you will not be recognized.
10. Called a man wearing a suit that looks like a wall “Mr. Wall” and said he likes the suit but also it’s ugly.

Donald trump says a lot of things that he later backs away from, and nobody holds him accountable for.
For instance, he said he would build a wall and make Mexico pay for it. Never happened.
He said he'd have a replacement for Obamacare “in two weeks.” Never happened.
He said if he lost the 2020 election to Joe Biden, he'd leave America. Never happened.
And when challenged to debates earlier this year, he said “Any time, any place.” But now he's scrambling for reasons to AVOID debating Kamala Harris.
Time after time, trump just says whatever is on his diseased, demented mind, and the press fails to question it, or hold him to account.
Then his followers all clamor to explain “what he really meant to say is…” while deflecting by spinning a bunch of whataboutisms.
For a person whose followers like him because he “says what he means,” it's clear that what he says is meaningless.
For now, until the press steps up, we're going to keep calling out his cowardly bullshit to make sure everyone knows #ChickenTrump is a COWARD.
This line - explaining why a ban on congressional stock trading hasn't passed - sums up DC in general
"Kevin McCarthy said he favored banning members from trading stocks while Pelosi was still speaker, but dropped the issue once he won the speaker’s gavel"

A look at what was a bleak, defining moment for Central Florida - when state and local officials caved to development lobbyists and agreed to plow a toll road through conservation land they'd promised to protect forever.
We can do better.

As a political stunt, Ron DeSantis rejected millions of dollars that would have helped keep children from going hungry this summer.
Florida Republicans don't care about your kids.
If it wasn't enough that Florida's insurance rates are sky-high, a new report says Florida companies lead the country in denying claims.
So we have sky-high prices and rock-bottom claims payments.
It’s hard to imagine a more rotten combination.

You'd do well to read and learn.
There's no magic bullet.
Only multi-pronged solutions that take hard work.
I've discussed & detailed them with insurance folks and *smart* lawmakers - the ones who care more about insurance than screaming about Disney and transgender people.
1/2
Florida ranks 46th in SAT scores - behind even D.C. where 100% of students take the test.
Yet districts here want to censor books - including a kids' book called "Ban This Book" that's about empowering kids.
The school board called it "Marxist."
Enough.

@TheRoaringKitty In all seriousness for a second.
In the history of humanity, has anyone ever Diamond handed becoming a Billionaire and dropping 100s of millions... much less doing it live on stream while trolling the entire financial establishment?
Anyone?
