Musk's said his new department can find 2 trillion dollars to cut... presumably so they can funnel it all into private hands instead.

And then wait for the next right-wing psychopath to buy up that one? You can't jump off Twitter to another privately held platform and not expect the same to happen there sooner or later.

They don't have to take away your power if you stop yourself from using it first. Don't willingly give up your voice.

"Significant other". It's a stand-in for any partner (boy/girlfriend, husband/wife, commonlaw, fuckbuddy, etc)

That's a stage name. I assume some of the others on the list are too.

If someone tells you of the power they will take, believe them.

If you're honestly asking that, you haven't been paying attention.

Trump has openly said he would be a dictator on day one of his presidency. He told American Christians that they won't have to worry about voting again, and that he'd take care of all that. Republicans control the house, the senate, the presidency, and the supreme court. There is no one to appeal to when he tries (and he WILL try) to take complete control. And legal challenges will be brought before the SCOTUS, who will rule in his favour.

Freedom will not win by following the old rules. Those rules are gone. They were killed by Trump and his MAGA mob.

People aren't paying attention. This is the last legitimate election the US will have. They control all three branches of government. The words in the constitution are meaningless if no one is there to uphold them.

We are experiencing history.

Sept 9, 1776 - Jan 20th, 2025.

They will control everything. Americans handed the fascists complete control over the legal system as well as the judicial system. Democracy is finished. There will be no free elections going forward. They made their choice.

Even once I had a great doctor who knew what I had, it still took nearly two years to find a medication that worked for me with side-effects that I could tolerate. It's a long frustrating journey.

Not only wouldn't he see a punishment, but he'd be elected a second time to do it again!

 

What last name do you think is neat? It could sound cool, have an interesting meaning or history, etc.
