The news is bad today, in America and for America. There is nothing good or hopeful about it—except for Nazis, warmongers, and rich greedheads.

I will say again, ALL billionaires are psychopaths. The only thing they understand and crave is power. Bill Gates was “impressed” with Trump, who murdered 400,000 people with COVID mismanagement and disinformation, because Trump is his daddy now. Gross.

If you believe this will be reality then there's no hope for you. Elon can just make up literally anything and you'll clap like a seal

Yesterday @GovGianforte posted his agenda over 20 tweets. Below I’ve included a few. All 20, boiled down say “I came to Montana & thrived under the Montana Constitution, but I never embraced its Montana Values! Now I’m going to change it & this is my plan.” His Sell Out MT Plan!

Traditionally Montanans don’t often get to see genuine ass-kissing coming from people of our State so here’s an excellent example. Spread it around. Not normal Montana values. See how it played out? Jan 3👇 Jan 17👇

We will never regret suing to remove Donald Trump from the ballot under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. We believed then, just as we do today, that he is ineligible to hold office for his role in the January 6th insurrection. independent.co.uk/news/world…

In the 2 years since those recommendations passed, Montana became the LEAST AFFORDABLE STATE TO LIVE IN. #montanamiracle
The rising cost of housing is also fueling the nationwide affordability crisis. Facing the problem, we launched our Housing Task Force, which included legislators, stakeholders, and experts. Using their recommendations, Montana now leads the nation in pro-housing reforms.

Short story. Days after the 2023 Lahaina fires I flew to Hawaii to provide pro bono legal aid to fire victims navigating everything from home insurance & biz contracts, recovering legal docs, immigration status, & more. I supported ~50 families, and there was 1 constant theme with each client. Private equity vultures were contacting and offering them pennies on the dollar for their destroyed properties. Just absolute vultures exploiting people's desperation and depression. I suspect the same will happen in SoCal, & sadly many will capitulate. It's criminal—or at least it should be. My takeaway: We need better protections for people suffering these disasters. People have lost everything & are not in a state of balance & security. Vultures exploit that fear to make a quick buck. Too few protections exist right now, if any at all. That must change—b/c this isn't sustainable.

We’d gone in search of the American dream, it had been a lame fuck around. A waste of time. There was no point in looking back.

As someone who use to fight wildfires, the amount of sheer fucking idiocy and ridiculous takes over the last two days makes me want to start throwing cinder blocks at people I've read some of the most ridiculous shit from people who obviously don't know a fucking thing about fire

I’ll be honest—more than term limits for Congress, I’d love to see the House of Representatives return to its original design, where the number of representatives grows with the U.S. population. This system changed in 1929 when Congress passed the Permanent Apportionment Act, capping the House at 435 members. Back then, the population was about 122 million. Today, with over 330 million people, each representative serves way more constituents than originally intended, making it harder for them to truly represent their communities. At first, a bigger House might sound overwhelming or crazy, but hear me out. With more representatives, each one would serve fewer people, meaning your voice would matter more. Elections would become more relevant, and it would be harder to manipulate districts through gerrymandering. It’s time to rethink how we’re being represented.

Elon has lost it. There are 3.4 million girls 14 and under in England. Elon just wrote—like a sociopath—that 1 OUT OF EVERY 13 SUCH GIRLS IN ENGLAND is right now being “systematically raped by migrant gangs.” This is—unambiguously—neo-Nazi rhetoric intended to incite violence.

Remember: If unions didn’t matter, powerful corporations wouldn’t spend millions of dollars every year to stop them from forming. Keep up the fight.
