stop wasting time with this, democrats. just, stop.
how will you pay for it?
we'll pay for medicare for all the same way republicans keep cutting taxes for corporations and the super-rich while raising the military budget by billions and billions
i dont know how to convince democrats that there is no prize for being the smartest in class by explaining the math on all this. there's no point in being a hermione granger in this world of politics.
Democrats: "It's levi-o-sa"

GOP: We just installed more nutty judges and cut taxes for billionaires, pronounce it anyway you like

its still stunning to me how much trump doesnt know about what he's talking about all the time. its always something like "and we're doing a lot of things, great things, and we're doing it in so many ways its unbelievable."
and when he introduces someone, who he clearly has never seen or heard of before, he says "he works so hard, this guy, he's always working, he works so hard for us so hard you wouldn't believe"
and its the same all the time. every time.

Trump, while speaking to audience at a HBCU: "A place called the Oval Office, have you heard about that? The Oval Office."
Trump claims his daughter Ivanka helped "14 million people" get jobs. She did not.
Trump compares systemic injustices in the U.S. justice system to the impeachment inquiry and his supposed persecution. Then he regurgitates the Fox News conspiracy theory about FBI agents. He is making this statement at a HBCU event about justice reform.

Despite ongoing investigations and arrests of his associates, Trump defends Rudy Giuliani as a "crime fighter" and a "good man."
Asked if he would back up Mike Pence in condemning China for their treatment of the protesters in Hong Kong, all Trump will say is "the speech was fine."
Trump claims there's no rapid response team re: impeachment: "I'm the team, I did nothing wrong." (He did)

📊#Time for monthly #stats

Good news! #ISIS activity on @Twitter decreased again in June: 7 195 new 🎯That's 12% less compared to May.
Again, 88% of these accounts were hacked: old, inactive, weakly protected.
They could easily be frozen in bulk. 😐

Thanks everyone!

📊Time for monthly #stats

In average, we found 240 new #ISIS accounts per day in #June2019 (May: 263). Always the same guys, coming back again and again, spreading mostly the same propaganda month after month.
A bunch of losers...

#opiceisis
📊Time for monthly #stats

Less good news now. With 6 903 suspensions for 7 195🎯, the outcome (96%) slightly dropped again, by 1%.
@TwitterSupport provided a lower service this month for #ISIS accounts removals, both in terms of quantity...

Let's talk about Social Security, Medicare, and payroll taxes. [Thread]
FDR set up Social Security with a dedicated payroll tax. He reasoned that setting it up this way would help protect the system from attack. archives.gov/exhibits/treas…
Today, dedicated payroll taxes are relied upon to operate Social Security and *some of* Medicare. There are two Trust Funds associated with each of these federal programs. Social Security's Trust Funds are: OASI (Old-Age and Survivors Insurance) and DI (Disability Insurance).
Medicare's two separate Trust Funds are: Hospital Insurance (HI) and Supplementary Medical Insurance (SMI). Each year, the financial health of Social Security and Medicare is evaluated in the form of an Annual Report of the Trustees. ssa.gov/oact/TRSUM/

After 70 years of imperial/neoliberal indoctrination the web of lies is so obviously absurde (9/11, Skripal, WH = ISIS, etc.), that it is dissoluting. The empathetic humanity connects, closes ranks and sends their eternal psychopathic rulers and their lackeys into nowhere land.
The "evil empire" is a lifelong three year old child. I certainly loved my children at that age too, however only because they created not only a surreal mess, but also made steady progress.

A great documentary about psychopathy and society:
The elite invented "democracy" to protect them from the empathetic people. The media are their means for misleading the people sedated by "democracy". This is definitely a bad thing since the people have become educated and the elite almost totally insane.

Are you one of those people who's looked back on 2017 and convinced yourself that you haven't achieved anything? Worried about catching up with your mates who seem to have done much better?

Let me tell you a story about #time.

A thread 👇
A long #time ago, back when I was about twelve or thirteen years old, my parents travelled to Uyo.

Before leaving, my mother asked me to prepare Edikang ikong soup so she and my father would eat when they returned.
When I was finished with the soup, it was supposed to look something like this:
