Hashtags are great and should also be used liberally -that's how we find stuff we're interested in, across the fediverse. HOWEVER, Hashtags fuck with screenreaders, so please use them at the end of your post, in a hashtag block, not scattered throughout. (I just learned this recently).
Here are some other suggested headlines for news media covering Trump's announcement:
"Piss-Frosted Dickdrip Traitor Will Run Again"
"Thin-skinned Narcissist Pussy-Grabber seeks White House"
"Florida Man Who Stole Classified Info to Sell to Enemies Announces Candidacy"
"Guy Who Helped GOP Shit the Bed Wants Oval Office"

Section 3 of the 14th Amendment bars anyone from holding office who “engaged in insurrection" against the United States.
This isn't some obscure provision. A judge in New Mexico just used it against an insurrectionist county commissioner.
It should apply to Donald Trump, too.
I had the opportunity to speak with Hunter Biden today, about his life, his love for art and his recovery.
The interview was free of any conspiracy theories. Here's a clip.
“You break it, you own it” used to be the rule.
Now, if you're rich enough, the rule seems just the opposite. “You own it, you can break it” — no matter how many others might be harmed. No matter how much distrust leaches into society as a result. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/capitalisms-new-slogan-you-own-it

I am so very sad at the passing of my friend Carolina Ödman-Govender this morning, after a long journey with cancer.
Astronomy has lost a bright light today. Carolina touched so many lives with her tenacity, kindness, and bravery. She was brilliantly bonkers too! She found the wonder and fun in life, and saw the best in people.
Thinking of Kevin and her lovely boys ❤️

Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
