In related news, Trump announced that he will not approve any solar or wind projects, and he gave some more generous taxpayer-funded subsidies to the coal industry.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power. Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

@rbreich.bsky.social Rfk and hhs are collecting protected health info without permission and creating an autism registry. Please report on this. People have to be aware. This terrifies me, because, who they did this to, you know where and when. I’m terrified by this.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

RFK Jr. started this grift when he read a debunked study by Dr. Wakefield. 👀 He saw it as a way to make money. 💰 He started “Children’s Health Defense”, an organization he grifts $500,000 per year from. 🤑 His own children are vaccinated.

Our church’s organist stood up the next day, announcing her daughter was there… if she had started to say “pray for Trump” I was ready to tell my husband to cut her mic off. 🤮 It was disgustingly out of place as was, but she and her husband are huge MAGAts, so not unexpected.

Listening to music on the radio while driving my kids to school, and between songs they mention the plane crash in Toronto and say there’s been multiple crashes recently. Government institutional stuff might not break through—often it’s abstract, with consequences downstream—but plane crashes do.
