No it’s not, actually. Both parties have allowed it but Trump has taken it to a critically dangerous level.

2/ For a greater understanding of how agencies created to have oversight over corporations have become in many ways mere advocates for those corporations, read Michael Lewis’s “The Fifth Risk.” thriftbooks.com/w/the-fifth-…

1/ This is called “agency capture.” The FAA was all cozy with Boeing, leading to lax oversight that resulted in the Boeing Max disasters. It happens all across govt - particularly with this administration. google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com…

Today is a good day to ask everyone we know if they’re registered to vote, whether they need our help with any aspect of it, and to volunteer for a get-out-the-vote effort. Time to psyche ourselves up for a massive, historic and definitive wave of resistance to fascism on Nov 3.

In response to the fires in California and our need to take action on climate change, Trump said yesterday “It’s going to get cooler, you just watch.” When a scientist responded, “I wish the science agreed with you,” Trump said, “I don’t think scientists know, actually.” #Nov3

I make the same mistakes everybody else makes and I have the capacity to laugh at myself. But there’s nothing funny about what’s happening in this country, and I refuse to acquiesce to the temptation to go quiet out of sheer exhaustion. It’s our patriotic duty to speak up I think

I don’t think the worst about Republicans or conservatives. Not at all. But Trump is neither of those. You just call hateful anything that calls him out.google.com/amp/s/www.newswee…

And your point is…? You know, every time somebody robs a bank there were always other people who had robbed banks before them. I’ve never seen that one used to give anybody a pass. And Obama did not do forced separation between parents & kids, nor order unwanted hysterectomies.

After undemocratic, vile, unAmerican, disrespectful, unkind, lacking in compassion, lacking in empathy, genuinely scary, horrifying to contemplate more of, and criminal...sometimes the word *weird* comes to mind.politico.com/news/2020/09/14…

I don’t disagree with you about Assange, but your Twitter handle picture is deeply problematic for me. Not every rich person is a greedy bastard, the guillotine was a sign of retribution and not justice, and the French Revolution is in no way our model for success.
