We're learning these days which media can be trusted, like the Philadelphia Enquirer and Rolling Stone, because they are standing for a candidate.
We're also learning which media is so full of bullshit they need to die quickly, like the LA Times and the Washington Post.
It's intense to feel so much betrayal, but I am finding it helpful. You remember that old saying? The one that goes 'You learn who your friends are when there's trouble around.'
Trump's GoFundMe hurricane campaign has almost 8 million.
Where do you think most of that money is really going cus the campaign has not said where.
People will never learn.

""SpaceX, which operates the Starlink service, won a $1.8 billion classified contract in 2021 and is the primary rocket launcher for the Pentagon and NASA. Musk has a security clearance that allows him access to certain classified information."
As a holder of a security clearance, Musk is under certain obligations and restrictions, and having repeated covert communications with the Kremlin is likely a disqualifying event

Gaza children dying as Israel restricts medical evacuations: UN
"Israeli authorities do not say when applications for medical evacuations are declined, and no explanations are given for their decisions,"
"At current rates, it would take seven years to clear the backlog of children needing treatment"
When I was 15 years old, I wrote a novel, The Lions Den, about a war between the Soviet Union and the US. It involved nukes, destruction and death.
I never suspected that at the age of 65, I'd witness the destruction of the US by Russia at the hands of billionaires and media conglomerates.
But here we are.
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.
