.@JamesTalarico: The only minority destroying America is the billionaires.
Trans people aren't taking away our healthcare.
Muslims aren't defunding our schools.
Immigrants aren't cutting taxes for themselves and their rich friends.
We are focused on the wrong 1%.
Anthropic’s red lines are no mass surveillance and no autonomous killer robots. It should terrify everyone that the pentagon finds these safeguards to be outrageous.
They told us Democrats would turn America into a show-your-papers society.
They told us Democrats would strip away the Second Amendment.
They told us Democrats would jail us for what we say.
They told us Democrats would drag us into more foreign wars.
They told us Democrats would cover up a child sex trafficking ring.
And then Republicans took power and decided to do all of it themselves.
To be clear: an insurrectionist using a Confederate flag pole to attack police guarding the US Capitol is dubbed a “patriot” and can receive a presidential pardon while US citizens in Minnesota exercising their 1st amendment rights to protest and assemble get executed.
Gregory Bovino: An individual approached USBP agents with a nine-millimeter semi-automatic handgun. The agents attempted to disarm the individual, but he violently resisted. This looks like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement.
This is a lie.
Throwback to a few weeks ago when Duke needed a bailout call after Clemson had sealed the game.
They shouldn’t even be 6-2 in ACC play.
Them being handed a spot in the ACC Championship is a joke.
@claypanzeri I tend to agree but for sure not irrelevant. I can say easily, he’s not going anywhere even if we go 4-7 or 5-6. He’ll get at least another year.
It's important to draw my lines in the sand:
Things are, actually, pretty bad right now.
And Trump is, actually, doing much of what the "resistance libs" said he would.
It's not TDS to say so.
I've tried to put the threat into terms my more conservative readers might hear:
If we’re claiming titles, Clemson should add 3:
1900 - Heisman went 6-0, outscored opps 222-10, only 1 home game
1948 - 11-0, outscored opps 274-76. Only unbeaten/untied team who participated in postseason, won Gator Bowl
1950 - 9-0-1, Orange Bowl champs, outscored opps 344-76
The top 1% now owns more than $54 trillion in wealth.
That’s 468 times more than the bottom 50%.
One man — Elon Musk — owns more than the bottom half COMBINED.
This is what I mean when I talk about oligarchy.
