Oh, Hucky is really calling for violence, not just hinting at it.

Mike Huckabee Hints at Violence if Trump Loses in 2024: Will Be Last Election ‘Decided by Ballots Rather Than Bullets’

#Musk’s growing power and anti-union stance resemble #HenryFord’s #autocratic tendencies. His influence over regulations and safety violations raises concerns, given his wealth and industry dominance.

Musk's actions, like disrupting his #Starlink network for political reasons, also highlight his influence on policy decisions.

@thenation argues for #CollectiveAction and government involvement over relying on billionaires like Musk to address global challenges.

@oldredsubby As long as we have Republicans we will have substandard healthcare.
Healthcare should not be a business for profit. It should be a service.

Now: Judge Chutkan replies to Trump’s motion to recuse her, orders govt to reply by 9/14, Trump has 3 days from their reply to respond.

And she notes, future failures to comply with earlier order that parties confer before filing may be denied w/o prejudice (temporarily).

I will be watching tomorrow’s Apple event. And regardless of the outcome, I will be purchasing the iPhone 15 Pro Max. I’m sick of juggling cords. USB-C for everything, please!

NBC News:
Biden admin clears the way for prisoner swap deal with Iran, lifts freeze on $6 billion in Iranian funds

The deal has already come under fierce criticism from Republicans in Congress and other skeptics, who say that the administration is rewarding Iran for imprisoning innocent Americans and that it will only encourage the regime to detain more foreigners.

Hi. I have never had Covid. I'm super gung-ho to get whatever new booster vaccine the FDA/CDC offer me because you know what? I don't want to ever get Covid!

Joe Biden just made me cry.. He talked about the phone call we get when we lose someone. My youngest son called me crying to let me know my wife had died 9 years ago and 5 years ago when the police called me to tell me my oldest son had died. Joe knows sorrow and he knows how to comfort.

We are lucky to have such a good human as our leader.

God protect him.

Even when Joe Biden proves he is well up to the task and rigors of being president, the media uses it to bring up his age again, while giving “215 lb” Trump who is already slurring his words and is only 3 years younger than Biden a pass. It’s shameful.

@squig
Yes, I am profoundly aware of the terrible use bad actors have used U.S. military and monetary power in order to promote their personal interests over those of our democratic ideals like for example 9/11 is also the anniversary of one in Chile sadly.

I wish that our history were taught more completely in our schools and by our media so that patriotism could be directed towards the ideal of the USA versus jingoistic defense of everything Uncle Sam has done.

To be clear: I absolutely believe in never forgetting what should not be forgotten. I’m just not gonna participate in the annual remembrance of a bad thing. I don’t even want to celebrate lives in the context of the worst thing that ever happened to them.

To be clear: That’s just me and it’s not a criticism of however people choose to process or memorialize anything.

.@repraskin's debunking of James Comer's conspiracy theories about Joe Biden includes *19* bullet points of Republicans admitting they have no evidence of wrongdoing by Biden. Nevertheless, Hill journos continue to do process stories on impeachment.

Great lies of our time...
- There is no danger to the public.
- If I survive, I'll never drink again.
- Of course I believe you.
- Easy open, tear here.
