If you don’t know who Jay Graber is, you will. She’s the woman behind Blue Sky. Everyone’s talking about it. In just the past week, Bluesky’s user base has exploded, more than doubling to over 16 million as people scramble for an alternative to X, Facebook, and Threads. It’s now the most downloaded app, adding over a million new users every single day. Bluesky was initially financed by a grant from Twitter under Jack Dorsey. But when Elon Musk bought Twitter, he cut ties with Bluesky. So, why is Blue Sky such a breath of fresh air? Because it gives users control over their feeds, steering clear of the toxic algorithms that fuel polarization—exactly why people are fleeing X. And whoever came up with the “starter pack” feature—Genius!!!

30 years ago, Ukraine agreed to give up the world's 3rd largest nuclear arsenal in exchange for security guarantees from the US and Russia under the Budapest Memorandum. ▪️3,000 tactical nuclear warheads ▪️1,900 strategic nuclear warheads ▪️176 ICBMs ▪️42 strategic bombers
🧵 17 years ago #Ukraine destroyed its last Tu-22M heavy bomber & 423 Kh-22 cruise missiles in accordance with its voluntary disarmament, to make a clean break from its Soviet past under #Kremlin's control, in great hopes of being accepted into a free Europe. Tragically betrayed.

Four years ago, we faced unprecedented crises. President Biden understood the magnitude of the challenge and used the tools of government to meet the moment—including an infrastructure package that is transforming our nation. It will be remembered as this century's Big Deal.

🔥🔥🔥 one of the most important videos I’ve shot Steve Bannon at CPAC talking about the mass firings day one. All the people who are being appointed by Trump for the various agencies are merely there to fire people day one and replace them with people who have been vetted for years in Project 2025 #InvasionOfTheBodySnatchers

“Heading into the earliest days of the Trump Two era, it’s striking that it turns out not to be burnt-out women on the ground waving a white flag but some of the best-resourced men at the top, including those most dismissive of women’s efforts.” nymag.com/intelligencer/arti…

Once again people took for granted that we had a normal decent administration. We won’t see a Cabinet like this again for a long time and it breaks my heart.

Betrayed: How Trump's Policies Will Devastate Low-Income Voters' Social Security To those who cast their votes for Trump, particularly those struggling to make ends meet, I have a stark message: you have been duped. Your support for a man whose policies will devastate your own financial security is akin to sawing off the branch you're sitting on. Trump's promises to safeguard Social Security are nothing more than empty rhetoric. He offers no concrete reforms, no viable solutions to address the program's looming insolvency by 2035. Instead, he proposes tax cuts that will drain the very resources needed to sustain your benefits. His plan to eliminate taxes on Social Security benefits might sound appealing, but it will reduce funding by a staggering $950 billion over ten years. Who do you think will bear the brunt of this shortfall? Not the wealthy, but you—the lower-income seniors who rely on every penny of your Social Security checks. Trump's additional tax cuts on tips and overtime will further exacerbate the problem, reducing revenue by another $900 billion over a decade. Combined with his other proposals, this could push Social Security's insolvency to as early as 2031, forcing Congress to consider benefit reductions of up to 30%. Imagine that—your already meager benefits slashed by nearly a third, all because you voted for a man who promised you the moon but delivered a fiscal nightmare. And let's not forget the impact of his tariffs and immigration policies. Tariffs will drive inflation, increasing Social Security's cost-of-living adjustments and further straining the program's finances. His immigration restrictions will cut payroll contributions from undocumented workers, reducing Social Security revenue by $400 billion over a decade. These policies are a double-edged sword that will cut deep into the heart of the social safety net you depend on. You voted for Trump thinking he had your best interests at heart. But his approach to Social Security is a house of cards, built on tax reductions without concrete funding strategies. It's a reckless gamble that puts your future at risk. When the benefits you rely on are slashed, remember that you voted for the man who wielded the knife. Wake up and smell the betrayal. Your vote has empowered a regime that will leave you impoverished and desperate. You deserve better, but it's too late for regrets. The storm is coming, and you've steered the ship straight into its path.

The rate of sea level rise happening now in Florida is about a foot every ten years. That's up from about an inch every ten years back in the 60's. Enjoy this map before Republicans privatize NOAA. The beachfront developers don't want you to see this. coast.noaa.gov/slr/#/layer/s…

Well, I guess the consequences of this election are already being felt. A story about Trump voters in Pennsylvania. The owner of a large company called a meeting for all his employees. He informed them that they won't be getting their Christmas bonuses this year. He explained that the company has to buy a year's worth of product before the Trump's tariffs hit in January. They said they thought the tariffs were paid by the foreign companies. He then explained to his employees that the tariffs are paid by the American companies who import these foreign goods. Sometimes, you get exactly what you vote for.

Women over 65 remember what it was like before Roe v. Wade became the law of the land. That's why they are voting for Kamala.
