Via CREW, Citizens for Ethics:
Congratulations to #HomeDepot, which has officially donated $1,000,000 to support the members of Congress who voted not to certify the results of the 2020 election.
Bankrolling the Sedition Caucus is a choice, and Home Depot has doubled down!
What the actual fuck. One of my favorite political commentators, Mehdi Hasan, has been speaking out very eloquently, with his usual evidence-based arguments, in favor of Palestinian rights. And as a result, MSNBC canceled his popular show. This is a terrifying sign that so-called free speech in this country is anything but free. https://presswatchers.org/2023/11/msnbc-cancels-mehdi-hasan-a-truth-teller-in-a-time-of-crisis/

If you are requiring 5+ years of experience at anything, then the job you are hiring for is by definition NOT "entry level."
@santoperdido Way to miss my point.
Free speech is a govt issue. This is a timeline. I made a request, gave my regular followers a heads up, most of whom thanked me for my call for non-violent speech.
But if you’re good with ignoring the rule of law and going straight for “Hang” someone, hey.
And I don’t have to take the bad with the good. I can do this instead: #Toodles
Laffy, has made it really clear what types of replies she feels are and are not ok. You can ignore that, nothing can stop you, but then don't expect to be included in the future.
Fact Check: Was Palestine a Sovereign State Before Israel?

In case you need to be reminded: "@BaddCompani" on X is Carl Sizelove, an Oregonian disinformation grifter who I first saw running with Louise Mensch and her little pack of liars.
Comrades I know who are still making the mistake of remaining on Musk's X are watching him grift even more than usual at the moment.
Sizelove once got into an argument with me on Twitter wherein he claimed he — PERSONALLY — drove the Proud Boys and the other fascists out of Portland on August 17th, 2019, and, because of his heroism, there was no violence that day.
I responded with some photographs of myself literally in physical fights with neo-nazis taken that day in our streets and he blocked me.
Fuck Carl Sizelove. He's a mendacious, thieving fabulist who is in desperate need of forceful character growth.
Oh, and he is currently fundraising ANOTHER $100K for who knows what. I doubt we'll see receipts for that either. Smdh

If you would like to do a small thing to help undo the mark that Henry Kissinger left on the world, I recommend a donation to the HALO Trust, which was working to de-mine Cambodia when I visited. The work continues. https://www.halousa.org/where-we-work/south-asia/cambodia/
The Supreme Court Has Figured Out How to Gut a Bunch of Crucial Federal Laws at Once

Here’s hoping that the #kissinger obits today will educate a new generation on why the U.S. are met with hostility in so many parts of the world.
in case you didn't see this yet https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/henry-kissinger-war-criminal-dead-1234804748/
One of the world's most unscrupulous, destructive, evil men has finally died. Let's break out the booze and celebrate!!! #Kissinger #HenryKissinger #Warmongering #WarCriminal https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2023/05/henry-kissinger-at-100-still-a-war-criminal/
“As such, the devastating impact of Kissinger’s policies in Cambodia cannot be overstated – they contributed to the unraveling of the country’s social fabric and the suffering of its people, leaving behind a legacy of trauma.”
Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
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.
