June is Black Music Month. This year, I decided to come back with another jam session for you all. Here is my rendition of "Hey Joe" by the Godfather of Rock, Jimi Hendrix.
Clawing back public media funding would rip vital services out of our communities – early education, local journalism, emergency alerts, and local connection. Urge your Senators to vote NO @MyPublicMedia: https://t.co/TdjjtpCyJv #ProtectMyPublicMedia
I do agree. This republican congress has let us down. They are supposed to stand strong in the face of a rogue president just like they did when Nixon was in office. Weak is used to describe dems, but which party is really blatantly showing weakness?
trump's Project 2025 is unamerican. One of it's goals is to give the president more power and give congress less. 249 years ago, our founding fathers intended the president & congress to have equal power.
The founding fathers would call trump a traitor.
Retweet if you agree.
If you are opposed to the anti-democratic things going on in this country right now, call your representative & senators every day to let them know you will hold them to account at the next election.
Trump issued a "pause" on tariffs today, but we are still living at his whim. The chaos he is creating will raise the deficit, cost jobs, & personal savings.
trump said tariffs will bring revenue. He lied.
Sale of Treasury bonds by Japan & China will raise government interest cost on new bonds to finance debt.
Cutting IRS will reduce revenue by billions.
Less revenue & higher cost means a higher deficit.
trump is destroying America.
In NBC interview Trump said, he could care less if car prices go up; no signalgate firings; & everything is on the table in order to take Greenland. He does not care about this country or the American people.

People are literally fleeing. Kids have lost their schools. Communities have lost their churches. Families have lost their homes. Some have even lost their lives.
And the President-Elect’s response is to politicize it.
We’ll continue to focus on what matters: saving lives and putting out these unprecedented fires.
This is a good read from Axios because they are actually debunking some of the false news that is being circulated.

As we continue to try to get the full truth out about what’s happening in this country, I encourage you to watch @cspan.
On yesterday a colleague had a bill in markup entitled “dismantle DEI.” In explaining why the bill was needed, multiple white R men argued that they are being “oppressed.”
I didn’t bring race into anything… THEY DID & always do & then they twist
history & dilute the definition of words.
Moment of clarity for my House Republican colleagues.
You have no mandate to enact extreme right-wing policies.
The people want us to work together to lower the high cost of living.
Full stop.
Today is special because it's the birthday of our golden girl @goldiehawn 😍
Happy happy birthday, Goldie. The world appreciates and loves you. You are a treasure.
BREAKING: President Biden racks up a huge win ahead of Donald Trump taking power by finalizing an agreement with a massive semiconductor manufacturer to invest billions of dollars in Arizona facilities.
And it gets even better...
The $6.6 billion grant agreement with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company was made possible through the historic Chips and Science Act, a piece of legislation that will end up as an enduring part of Biden's legacy.
"Today’s announcement is among the most critical milestones yet in the implementation of the bipartisan CHIPS & Science Act, and demonstrates how we are ensuring that the progress made to date will continue to unfold in the coming years, benefitting communities all across the country," said Biden.
The grant is predicted to create a staggering $65 billion in private investment from TSMC in Arizona, including three new facilities and tens of thousands of good jobs.
Donald Trump blames immigrants for our problems. President Biden works to actually fix them and strengthen our nation.
The downgrade from Trump and Biden is going to be felt in every corner of our economy.
Please retweet and ❤️ if you're grateful to President Biden for enriching and strengthening America — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.

Dems have to get their act together & come up with a way to make people see that they voted against their own interests. Actually, I think Trump will do that for us. He's got nothing good in store for this country; people are already having #TrumpRegret
3 grave threats to our country:
donald trump, who is a russian agent.
The people who voted for this traitor, and may vote for another traitor in 4 years.
The people here in the USA, who got them to vote for this traitor.
Please retweet with ideas on how to fix #2 & #3. Thanks.
