@GodlyNations I don't support Trump, I simply don't reflexively oppose him - and the No Kings folks give me something to point at and laugh about.

Democrats are not liberals. A liberal knows that virtue cannot exist in the face of compulsion.

Over 8 million people participated in No Kings Day.
One of the largest single-day demonstrations in American history.
Did the massive "NO KINGS" protest across major cities change your support for President Trump?

It's almost as stupid as claiming there is a "philosophy of capital" (capitalism), and that such philosophy causes "wealth inequality" and poverty.
But, even Friedman suggested a form of UBI called the Reverse Income Tax. RIT at much higher than current average welfare and FICA benefit levels would cost about half of today's social state, and would have almost no administrative overhead.
But that requires that ALL federal, state, and local transfer programs other than RIT be repealed. Because going from spending $5T on welfare to $8T on welfare is unacceptable.
English
If I lost a brain cell every time I saw someone claim that Universal Basic Income was communism, I'd have become stupid enough to say it myself.
AI is here. Jobs are being automated. And capitalism requires consumers with money to spend. Consider where this is going without UBI.

@astraiaintel Yours is a very Orwellian definition of "dignity"

@mehdirhasan Sure, but given the Israelis’ history I don’t like the IRCG’s chances.
Ironic when you are reduced to advocating for an oppressive totalitarian regime.

@ArobTheArab @ninaturner Tell me, Arob, how you are supposed to pay $2,500 rent when all the jobs pay $2,000 a month
The real jobs went to China

Is a generation “not growing up?” Or are Americans being denied economic mobility?
When wages are low and rent is high, people have student loans and the cost of childcare is unaffordable, this will create a problem.

@d3layd @elleonCEOTK How many people armed J6ers shoot again? Zero? Well, there you go.

@elleonCEOTK so, it was cool when the J6ers did it, but this isn't? Why? I'm confused. Explain it like I'm 5.

🚨Emergency Update!!!!!!!
I was going to wait until Monday for this but things are developing rapidly so I must inform the public now in a series of tweets. Here is what’s happening:
On Tuesday (SOTU) a House staffer gained entry into one of the House office buildings that leads to the U.S. Capitol. That staffer was in possession of a gun. He was eventually caught and arrested. What makes the problem even worse I’m told the staffer asked (after his arrest) what the problem was with this as no one said anything to him about him bringing the gun in the previous day.
This is the fourth instance of a gun being brought in a building policed by USCP Chief J Thomas Manger since Trump was elected President. What is frightening to me is that both dates that President Trump attended events at the Capitol it was on a date where a gun made it in one of the buildings and I’m told one of the guns made it in a room where President Trump was actually in and only feet away from him.
This can’t happen!!! I’m still getting more information on this and I’ll have another tweet tomorrow.

🚨Breaking News 🚨 Message to USCP Chief J Thomas Manger: Here we go again. Today, I just received the information of what occurred on Tuesday, March 4th on the day President Trump addressed the nation from the United States Capitol. You clearly are going to try to conceal it from the public as much as you can but you must understand it will not be possible for you to conceal anything as long as I am breathing. With that said, you have until 12 pm Monday morning to fully brief the American public of what occurred on Tuesday. If you do not I will and in the future you will not be offered advance notice of these reports. There is no doubt in my mind that you are arguably the most corrupt politician in the history of our country, but after what I heard today you are taking your treachery to an all time height. You have to know I'm getting this information from people who work for you. Why do you think that is? It's because they don't want your treacherous stink on them and they are praying that one day soon you will step down. Lastly, you still have not provided any explanation to the inaugural event in January (please see below). We are still waiting for that as well. Tarik K Johnson Former Lieutenant US Capitol Police

@elleonCEOTK Your fear of firearms is the problem, not firearms.

@djmarkfarina @DonaldJTrumpJr Well, you sure told him! 🙄
That $8 million was spent on such foolishness is the point - you realize we invented more, faster BEFORE Big Bother began to “help,” right?

@DonaldJTrumpJr 🤡🤡🤡 You and your father are moronic clowns. It was transgenic mice. Nobody is trying to make mice transgender.

@osint_69 At the point you stop screaming and running in circles.

At what point do the American people start to give a fuck about what is the happening?
English
@EricM_Katz Yes, very brave. That’s $80 billion in savings right there, reversing the imbecile Biden’s expansion of the IRS.

The head of HR at IRS got fired, she says because she admitted to staff that mass firings of 7k employees was directed from outside the agency.
She will challenge the firing: “I’m just trying to do my goddamn job. They have no idea who they picked a fucking fight with.”

I've noticed a pattern, and I can't be the only one who sees this.
Whenever something happens in the Jewish community, Christians—for the most part—consistently come together to rally around the Jews and offer their support.
But when the Christian community faces persecution, I almost never see my Jewish friends showing the same level of support or even discussing these matters.
Two weeks ago, 70 Christians were brutally beheaded, and not a single one of my Jewish friends posted about it.
Why?
English
@JessicaUSAF It will continue to do so with a smaller budget.

@DM_Deluca Yeah, imagine a Catholic public official who honors Ash Wednesday. The horror!

🚨BREAKING: Many LGBTQ people are saying they will leave Trump’s America
“I’m physically afraid to live here, will be safer in Europe”
What's your response?
English
@ForrestsKewlig @AmyLynnStL Which is the same idiot logic that anyone touching their heart and flinging out their arm is rendering a “Nazi salute.”
Because the Nazi salute did NOT involve touching the chest. You guys are seeking to find patterns in an infinite field of dots that aren’t connected.
English
Musk thinks this is a funny response to people calling him out for his Nazi salute. Just goes to show what a sick fucking bastard he is. There is absolutely nothing funny about Nazis.
English
Hold onto your hats, because Elon Musk—Trump’s go-to advisor, billionaire genius, and hands-down the most influential guy on the planet—just lobbed a grenade into the global conversation.
He’s claiming, loud and clear, that the U.S. government didn’t just botch the COVID-19 response—they bankrolled its very existence, setting off a chain reaction that left millions dead worldwide.
This isn’t some late-night rant from a nobody; it’s Musk, the guy who’s got the President’s ear and a track record of shaking up reality, from Tesla to SpaceX.
Think about it: if he’s right, this is beyond explosive—it’s apocalyptic. The idea that D.C. suits funded a virus that flipped the world upside down should have us all hitting the brakes, jaws dropped, demanding the truth.
We’re talking millions of graves, shattered economies, and endless grief, all potentially tracing back to a government lab checkbook. This isn’t just big news; it’s the kind of history-bending bombshell that should make Watergate look like a petty prank.
So why isn’t the planet frozen, reeling from the weight of it? Why aren’t we storming the streets, pounding on doors, screaming for accountability? Musk’s dropped the match—shouldn’t the world be catching fire?
English
@BillyBaldwin I think the “democracy versus dictatorship” claim might have more weight if you hadn’t been using it continuously in all contexts for the past eight years.
English
The US has joined Russia, Belarus and North Korea to vote against the UN resolution to support Ukraine.
This by itself should be enough of a red flag to unite Democrats and Republicans.
This isn't Red State vs. Blue State anymore... it's democracy vs dictatorship.
English
@SenMarkKelly Yes any reduction in these areas is always catastrophic according to the people who want it to be catastrophic.
English
Fewer visitors, longer wait times and slower emergency response. That’s how Elon Musk and Trump’s layoffs are hitting the Grand Canyon and other national parks. It’s bad for the economy and bad for Arizona.
