If you don't like the fact that #Musk is getting full access to #Federal #private information, then the fight isn't over.

While #Trump did get #elected, you can still put pressure on your #Congressman. They're up for #reelection sooner than Trump is. Reach out to them and keep expressing your disappointment with what's going on.

You can #email them or #call them. Make your #voices heard. Don't spot the #fight because we lost a #battle.

Bangkok Post · Thailand chokes while promises fadeBy Danny Marks

On this day 30 January 1933 | Adolf Hitler, the leader of the #Nazi Party ( #NSDAP - National Socialist German Workers' Party) became the Chancellor of Germany. And we all know that his ideas still exist and are even being adopted by #elected political leaders now a days.

If you haven’t read this Atlantic article I reccommend it. For those of us that see #fascism it hasn’t been hard to see the parallels of history in our current #political climate. Still chilling to see the timeline of a #fascist rise & the failure of #elected officials to do a damn thing about it. And I find myself reminding my coworkers, friends & family that try to downplay the ability of #fascists to claim #power in #America that it’s only a few months and votes away.

All y'all, talkin' how These next four years are gonna be rough - are adorable. I will be pleasantly surprised if we see someone living in the White House, who is not a member of the #GOP, before 2041. That's only four #election cycles: We just #elected our king, so sez SCOTUS, & we can't #prosecute him for ANYTHING he does while in office, so he's not going anywhere. Then his mini-me will be in the #WhiteHouse because "If we #win it's #fair & if you win it's #cheating." #SCOTUS #king #trump

Don't throw the baby out with the bath water

Remove #hereditary peers YES
Remove former #PrimeMinister's cronies YES
Remove religious leaders MAYBE

But, a #bicameral #parliament needs a TRUE #Senate; a house of wise elders:

Two #elected chambers fight each other along #partyPolitical lines — #logicalReasoning / #criticalThinking is the casualty — everyone pays the price

Argue with me 🙂

US agency says Tesla's public statements imply tt its #vehicles can drive themselves. They can't
" #NHTSA is asking #Tesla to “revisit its comm'ns”.. 4 crashes involving #FullSelfDriving when Teslas encountered sun glare, fog & airborne dust..
