@nicolewallacebr.bsky.social Meditation. You don’t have to sit and say “Ohm.” Walk. Breathe. Clear your mind to hear the sounds on your walk. Eat alone and focus only on the texture and taste of the food. ONE MINUTE before sleep. Clear your mind. Only listen to the sounds in the room. Science.

Trump's economy is crumbling amid high inflation.
His Big Ugly Bill has cost millions their healthcare.
His war with Iran has no end in sight.
His approval rating has plunged.
Now he's peddling election denial nonsense to cover up his own failures.

@lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social Lawrence, what a show tonight! The professors and Cory Booker were each just superb and hopefully helped push our country to improve itself. A better educated citizenry is the only way our democracy will survive.

It would be political malpractice for Talarico's people not to be frantically checking the FEC records of every major Texas BBQ chef to find some Democrats, and then have them cut an ad with Talarico eating at their place. The ad practically writes itself. (1/2)

It’s VERY IMPORTANT that corporate media NOT frame this as a judicial settlement. Trump DROPPED the suit this morning. There is no lawsuit, and therefore, no settlement. you can’t settle a suit that doesn’t exist. This is just pure theft.

Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something.
For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.

There are concentration camps in the USA. People are being disappeared. One facility has 3,500 people, most of them children.

The SAVE Act is about suppressing women's right to vote. It has NOTHING to do with I.D. or election integrity. Receipts.

OMG. This needs more attention.
Keep this in mind when reading the nice articles about the diplomatic tone of Marco Rubio’s remarks in Munich. The deaths of millions and millions of people are on him.
I still think the best way to think of the ending of US AID is as the single worst genocide committed by any one US presidential administration.
even given all the horrific things the US has done, it's not really that close. 750k dead already; expected 14 million.
