My sincere hope is that people around the world see the madness in the US and say "Whoa, we don't want that sh!t here..." and vote against the right-wing loons.

Do you think that's happening?

Boy, Trump Is Really Making Things Great

"My wife called to tell me that some friends of ours, who are cotton farmers in Oklahoma, just lost their biggest contract with a Canadian buyer. The buyer felt there was too much instability so he signed a deal with a cotton producer in Brazil.

The Trump effect strikes again."

Jefferies, Pelosi and Schumer need to go or stand behind and support people like AOC and Jasmine Crockett who are willing to do more than just write strongly worded letters or consider actions.

This is bullish!t that they are doing nothing -- they had months to get ready to fight and they aren't

@br00t4c

Talk is cheap --

for every one that wants to take the fight to trump and musk there are 3 that want to send a strongly worded letter and "consider" legislation while the building is burning now.

The only hope is the new blood --- Pelosi and Schumer and Jefferies need to step back or quit.

FBI Agents Sue DOJ Over 'Unlawful And Retaliatory' January 6 List

A group of FBI agents brought a class-action lawsuit against the Justice Department on Tuesday, accusing it of carrying out an "unlawful and retaliatory" directive from President Donald Trump to purge the bureau of agents who worked on the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot probe and the classified-documents investigation into Trump.

Can we talk #Lemmy ?

I’d like to get away from #Reddit but I’ve heard sketchy things about the people behind Lemmy and I haven’t seen any other platform coming up better.

What’s your take?

@dansup

I kicked in and have been trying to turn everyone I know onto it!

Great work, Dan!

Why Did #trump Move The Inauguration Inside?

"
Capitol Rotunda ceremony? Scrapped!

The parade? Canceled!

The Capital One watch party? Off the table!

The swearing-in ceremony? Will now happen at the White House

Hotels in the area are at a 70% occupancy - THE lowest it has ever been for an inauguration (usually 90%) & most of the 70% occupancy was for the ‘March against Trump & Nazification of America’ event and Trump was informed which is why the events was cancelled

It wasn’t the cold."

I moved on from #Firefox already to #Vivaldi but I’d love to hear what security and #Privacy oriented users are using as well

@todwest @cstross

yeah, me too. I’m a big supporter of Libre Office

@todwest @cstross

I just looked it up on https://privacytests.org/ and it looks like it's doing a damn good job.

It comes with uBlock Origin installed by default and I added Privacy Badger too.

So far it's smooth.

@dansup @loops

wow… I didn’t realize I had the switch flipped. A lot of apps ignore it. Thanks.

Now how can I post a video without sound?

@loops

Two questions (iOS version):

I am not hearing any sound on any loop - can’t find any setting or option

How do I upload a loop but not the audio from it ?

Owner of the McDonald's that hosted Trump's photo-op is one Derek Giacomantonio. Someone did some digging and of course here he is whining to the state about having to pay his employees a living wage

Trump cancels a streak of events with only days until election

Grandpa ain’t well and his handlers want to hide it.

Former President Trump's planned appearance at a National Rifle Association event next week was cancelled Thursday, the latest in a slew of scuttled public appearances and interviews by the former president in recent weeks.

Now plead guilty to being a Russian operative...

I believe he started off in the right place but when the Russians came calling he didn't say no

@br00t4c

Thanks, Joe !!
