Because we don't have sufficient oversight of Congress to prevent buyouts. We need another clone of Jasmine Crockett.
Why do we keep subsidizing this industry that’s been here forever now. They’re not new like wind & solar that could use subsidies to grow.
The very definition of EVIL
Either that or cooperatives.
Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.
That sounds like a bonfire bully.
Pretty heavy!
How do people lose their conscience? Become so corrupt? I don't know why nobody told you How to unfold your love I don't know how someone controlled you They bought and sold you While my guitar gently weeps.~ The Beatles
Just consider putting an ankle bracelet on her and make sure she can't instigate more Genocide in our world.
Wow!
I know Jasmine Crockett is busier than most humans could be, but doesn't it seem that where X buys off Congress, there should be an oversight committee with the power to eject/jail the people involved in those Buyouts?
300,000 Israelis on the streets of Tel Aviv tonight calling for an end to Netanyahu's forever war and the release of the hostages.
States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it. Great article on the need for Democratic governors to step up and protect public health, featuring the incredible @gregggonsalves.bsky.social.
I suggest getting Jasmine Crockett involved. She sure seems to be a lawyer for the people these days.
Just in case you forgot…

Just get a warrant and lock him up!
Where does the beaver live? Is he truly wild, or one asked to stabilize water somewhere?
The first are known as people, And the second are known as Oligarchs! A.k.a. Bullies.
Those with empathy and societal awareness who want to build together. Those who want to take from others via conning, violence and psy ops while pretending to be moral, superior and benevolent.

You guys buddies with the CLDC in Oregon?
If you're arrested in Illinois protesting the planned ICE HQ in North Chicago, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com. As always, I will take as many cases as I can.
Wonderful! Hope it keeps spreading around!
At least SOME countries recognize the value of NATURE and all its offerings.
Good one!
Don’t have nightmares, go to sleep laughing! See you tomorrow BlueSky Friends.
Did you know? Jimmy Buffett was an environmentalist and activist, and co-founded the ‘Save the Manatee Club’ with former Florida governor Bob Graham, which took early actions that shaped manatee protections. #JimmyBuffettDay #SavetheManatee
ICE will not be a nice school from which to graduate, or to put in a resume.
Bad news surrounding Israeli
Letter: I’m a veteran. I would never volunteer to serve and protect America as it is now.
@nealkatyal.bsky.social: “You’ve got the president who's imposed the largest tax increase on American consumers since 1993 … and he did it without Congress saying one word. That is not our constitutional structure.”
Corporate America’s playbook: 1) Exploit workers to maximize profits 2) Use profits to buy Congress 3) Use Congress to pass union-busting laws 4) Use these laws to further exploit workers 5) Repeat Let's break the cycle and keep building back a powerful labor movement.
Wow
Black swallowtail looking beautiful in the sunlight. #butterflies #Nature #Flowers
Trump has branded crime in cities like Chicago and Baltimore as spiraling out of control...but the data tells a different story: violent crime is falling. The deployed National Guard? It’s not a rescue. It’s political theater....and that's a nice way of saying it's a bunch of BS.
"RFK Jr: We need to stop trusting the experts... Trusting the experts is not a feature of science or democracy...it's a feature of religion and totalitarianism." Were he not a Kennedy...and wealthy...he'd likely be living his life out in a mental institution. Diagnosis: Dumb-Fuckery.
Remove RFK Jr for dereliction of duties. Immediately.
That's embarrassing.
Clean energy isn’t “woke.” It’s an essential part of our energy future and saves us all on power bills. This administration’s war on offshore wind and solar is just going to raise Americans’ utilities.
Masked ICE aren’t about safety; they’re about fear and evading responsibility. Demand transparency and accountability by adding your name to this petition:
Happy Birthday, Dr. Sylvia Earle! American marine biologist, oceanographer, explorer, author, lecturer, National Geographic Explorer at Large, and named first Hero for the Planet by Time Magazine. #WetTribe #TidetotheOcean #DrSylviaEarle #HeroforthePlanet
There are going to be protests in the streets this labor day against trump- please share and join. Thanks
What's happening at the CDC is as far from normal as the Trump presidency itself. Every American should be worried for themselves and their families. This is as serious as a freaking heart attack.
Constantly amazed by the compassion people show! 💜
Inexcusable ICE behavior should require returning children to their families immediately.
Who will be challenging Trump's illegal effort?
Firing RFK Jr would unburden a lot of overworked mitochondria in this country
My youngest made a friend at his new school. This friend doesn't eat lunch - doesn't bring one from home nor buy one at school Youngest shared some of his lunch yesterday and asked if he could bring extra for his friend, so now we are just going to send an extra meal with him Proud of my kiddo
I am not a communist. I am a humanist! A citizen of Earth my race is human. my religion is love. my prayer book is truth and kindness this includes protecting people from bullies and tyrants, whatever it takes. my politics is people & planet over profits & greed. Stop the greedy Help the needy
Heck no!

RFK Jr. must be fired.
Dr. Demetre, in his resignation from the CDC, said this: “I have never experienced such radical non-transparency, nor have I seen such unskilled manipulation of data to achieve a political end rather than the good of the American people”. It is an outrage that RFK Jr. remains as head of HHS.
My suspicion is that Cuba has better Covid vaccines than the USA.
Get The Greens activated and help them coordinate our essential issues of Rule of Law, and proper interpretation of our constitution which must be the basis of post fascism law.
“If we are serious about supporting our children, we must re-center our schools on the truth that every child’s humanity matters far more than winning a political point or being ‘right,’” writes Lucy Cortez in an op-ed.

FEMA employees were just placed on leave after criticizing the Trump regime in open letter. Their letter was meant to "sound the alarm" about inexperienced appointees and drastic cuts to agency programs. Like all tyrants in history, Trump wants to squelch dissent.
This cowtowing to Israel as if they weren't driving the Genocide is ridiculous. It is wholly wrong to act as if Isreal is acting morally. And when USA backs their immoral acts, the USA becomes complicit. Sabby Sabs points this out clearly. youtube.com/shorts/wGcgJ...
Also - I was truly humbled by the hike to get there.

Kudos to Catelin Drey on her victory in Iowa. This is a district that Trump won easily last November. It's one special election, yes. But it's a sign of hope and another reminder that every election is important. Democracy is not a spectator sport.
AMERICA: “It’s a mental health issue.” REST OF THE WORLD: “We have those. But don’t have mass shootings.” AMERICA: “It’s video games.” WORLD: “We have those too. But don’t have mass shootings.” AMERICA B: “It’s cause they took Jesus out of the classroom.” WORLD: “God, you’re stupid.”
He only wants to be a Dictator because he failed at being a President.
Trump just hung a giant portrait of himself over the Department of Labor building, claiming he puts "American Workers First." Take it from a former Secretary of Labor: Donald Trump doesn't give a shit about working people. https://youtu.be/ARL5VvYJUe8?feature=shared
Best of luck! Be a friend of Jasmine Crockett! And do your best!
And idiot Senators supporting Genocide! Instead of Jeffrey Sachs running our State Department!
Shuler: This is the choice working Americans have been given: chaos, or the same broken status quo. We wanted cheaper groceries—and we got tanks in our streets. We wanted affordable health care—and instead, 16 million Americans are about to be kicked off their coverage
I hope you can afford it! Best of luck!
If I never see JFK Jr. I'll be somewhat happier.
Good thought!
If you light one candle you can find your way. If you light someone else's candle you help everyone see the best way is together.
Y’all. Just watch. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 And pass it on. ❤️
Ignorance isn’t harmless...it's a public health hazard. Missouri’s kindergarten vaccination rate has dropped to 90%...below the 95% herd immunity threshold. We’re not just vulnerable...we’re sweating. Dumb f*&^ing people. www.columbiamissourian.com/news/state_n...

We must return to our democracy and purge the Duopoly.
Medicaid enables us to live in a society where kids, seniors, people with disabilities, foster care kids, pregnant people, & people with TB, cancer or HIV/AIDS have healthcare. That benefits us ALL. Fight to protect Medicaid!
THIS…is the mindset. THIS…is the attitude. THIS…is the fire in the gut….that we are going to ALL have to adopt. I have. Have you? We can’t have people sit this one out…and still prevail.
