Thanks to Citizens United and the USA Supreme Court, elections are now ALL about the money.

Billionaire tech bros feed the idiots corporate-focused Republican candidates …
Engaged citizens *try* to feed the people-focused Democratic candidates.

It’s not in the slightest a fair fight.

How can Democrats compete with well-funded billionaires & their propaganda machines?

This timeline sucks …

“Enshittification” is the best damn word to describe sooooo many of the degraded products & services forced upon us these days 💕

“ Never in the history of our Republic has a President had reason to believe that he would be immune from criminal prosecution if he used the trappings of his office to violate the criminal law.
Moving forward, however, all former Presidents will be cloaked in such immunity. If the occupant of that office misuses official power for personal gain, the criminal law that the rest of us must abide will not provide a backstop.
With fear for our democracy, I dissent.”
- Justice Sotomayor's dissent

Battleground state senate races are now single-digit races, and every one of the weirdo GOP candidates listed below is a Trump-approved conservative:

Ted Cruz (TX)
Rick Scott (FL)
Josh Hawley (MO)
Tim Sheehy (MT)
Bernie Moreno (OH)
Sam Brown (NV)
Kari Lake (AZ)
Eric Hovde (WI)

NYT , WAPO, Wallstreet Journal, NBC, CBS & ABC are republican-owned too.

On local evening News last night: “SF Bay Area scrambling for test kits - Sold Out”

I personally know more people simultaneously sick with Covid THIS WEEK than at any other point during the pandemic.

Yes, it’s milder, but EVERY SINGLE PERSON took DayQuil & still went to work - unmasked, infecting others.
* none realized it was Covid until they lost their sense of smell (~day 5)

FACT: People are generally stupid AF.

“Every man for himself” … Wear a damn mask 😷
