Time to say goodbye and go dormant on Muskchan. Join me on Bluesky. I'll follow you there

I'm a radical socialist. A thread

I'm a dad that wants my kids not bogged down by college debt for the rest of their lives

I want capitalism that works for all people, not just those (like me) with a massive, unearned, genetic head start /1

Minnesota workers are the real winners in the One Big Beautiful Bill:

- No tax on tips
- No tax on overtime
- Prevents a 19% tax hike for the average MN-06 taxpayer

“ A little patience, and we shall see the reign of witches pass over, their spells dissolve, and the people, recovering their true sight, restore their government to its true principles,” — Thomas Jefferson, who was a good deal more hopeful than I’m feeling this a.m. TBH.

Let's all take a collective big cleansing breath and remember that we are all in this together.

Happy final day of 2024 voting patriots! Isn't it great knowing that, should Trump lose, the best we can hope for (including at least half of his own voters) is that the inevitable armed riots won't get TOO insurrection-y? Isn't democracy fun?

Donald Trump is the most radical, divisive, and dangerous major party presidential candidate in the history of our great nation. He speaks to the values of fear and distrust. He can't and won't save this nation from anything #NotGoingBack

Wait. A campaign already so weird and extremist it makes the Legal Marijuana Now Party look serious, now goes all-in with the WEIRDEST man in America? #AmericaisAlreadyGreat

@Jaguar These are just a few examples. This is where the world is headed. I'm sad that I can't keep my current iPace or go to another Jaguar.

[FKA Dan Kane @iamdankane]

@Jaguar any update on integrating our Jaguars with smart home systems? Home Assistant, Google Home etc? Its almost time to replace my beloved iPace but I can't go with another Jaguar without smart home integration. It MUST work with my smart home, like every other EV model.

[FKA Dan Kane @iamdankane]

@Jaguar I need the car to talk to my smarthome to determine if/when I need a charge. I want to control charging if my garage gets too hot. I can't park outside due to security. Every other premium car maker has this capability. It can be a safety measure. It's definitely a differentiator

[FKA Dan Kane @iamdankane]

@EastCoastMs_ Where are you getting the 2024 Payroll numbers? The #MNTwins number ($162m) looks like 2023 payroll. My understanding is that 2024 is closer to $130-135m.

[FKA Dan Kane @iamdankane]

@Jaguar has blocked 3rd party #jaguarapi access for "security" reasons. Do you realize that almost every other auto maker allows, nay, encourages it? What makes Jaguar so much smarter than everyone else? Especially since tools have existed (Oauth, etc) for years! It's not hard

[FKA Dan Kane @iamdankane]

@NotifyNurseRyan That's got to be satire, right?

[FKA Dan Kane @iamdankane]

@JohnFugelsang @SIRIUSXM @StephMillerShow And at The Pantages even? Well crap. Already otherwise engaged this evening. I need to pay more attention.

[FKA Dan Kane @iamdankane]

@JohnFugelsang @DPadenAkaterry The cognitive dissonance is strong in this one. It's a heck of a drug, and one of the hardest to recover from.

[FKA Dan Kane @iamdankane]

@BettyBowers @RNCResearch But his cult sees that as a benefit. He won't be seen with the "deep state". Lol.

He's a politician, just like everyone else. The difference is that the others occasionally mislead about policy. TFG lies about EVERYTHING.

[FKA Dan Kane @iamdankane]

@TwinsGeek This is legit hard to choose. Week 1 has some of the best names, but week 3 is the most solid all-around.

[FKA Dan Kane @iamdankane]

@SpeakerJohnson Mike, please do the work of the American people. Not just Donald Trump. There was a bipartisan deal,and you chose to do the bidding of a political candidate over the good of the American people.

[FKA Dan Kane @iamdankane]

@eem_Jina @gtconway3d 2) Or we could return to the boom years of post WWII where top earners effective tax rate was >40%, vs the ~25% they pay today. The 50s economy was good for every non minority. Let's get back to those economies!

[FKA Dan Kane @iamdankane]

@eem_Jina @gtconway3d 1) Please do explain. We know from the past 50 years that trickle-down economics doesn't work. Well we taught the 1% that they deserve wealth growth not seen since the robber-baron days. That led to the Great Depression, so there's that.
