L O L G O PLove MLK day, when the guys who would have hated Dr. King in the 60s use one sentence from one speech to bash the people doing Dr. King's work today.

💎🏳️🌈So, Elon Musk reinstates Flynn on Twitter on the 2 year Anniversary of Jan 6.
He fires people in Twitter Brazil in charge of moderation, ie keeping an eye on inciting violence, etc.
On the day after Brazil insurrection he reinstates Ali Alexander, yes the "stop the steal" a**hole who is partly responsible for the Jan 6 insurrection.
He's not trying to hide what he's up to.
He's stoking the flames of fascism and violence.
Elon Musk is a terrorist.

Completely unsurprising in retrospect that the guys who want you to die without health insurance have seamlessly transitioned into wanting you to die or suffer Long Covid without life-saving vaccines.

mhoyeI feel like comments like "nobody wants to work anymore", and employment numbers in general, need to come with a little star next to them that points to a footnote reminding you that the labor market is being perpetually undercut by prison labor.
Qasim Rashid, Esq.After three separate votes, Republicans fail to elect their own Speaker -- first time in 100 years that's happened.
I want all the media pundits who blamed Dems for "not effectively negotiating with Republicans" to explain how you negotiate with a pro-insurrectionist party who can't even agree on their own Speaker?
Republicans claim Government doesn't work, then they get elected and prove it. Vote GOP Out Permanently.
Eric RauchwayCapitol police chief “Sund … unsuccessfully begged military generals for National Guard reinforcements. Though they delayed sending help until it was too late for Sund’s overrun corps, he says that he later discovered that the Pentagon had rushed to send security teams to protect military officials’ homes in Washington, none of which were under attack.”

A quick reminder that law enforcement *responds* to crime, but a living wage, food and water security, accessible healthcare, and public education *prevent* crime.
If you want safer communities, invest in people, not punishments.
