Next up, the Nurse Drain is just a part of the overall brain drain out of the US. Trump makes anyone who is skilled, has the opportunity and has half a brain to want to.

The Brain Drain into the USA was a key super power of the USA. Under Putin/Trump that is being destroyed. @AliceMarshall@dmv.community

Heavy Metal - China controls much of the strategic metals needed for just about everything modern. And they have now instituted ways to turn things off and on with most countries in the world dependent on this flow.

#China won this war without firing a shot

Yeah, it’s substack, I really wish people who should know better with such great content wouldn't do it on substack. (I don't pay)

One of @pluralistic@mamot.fr's best posts and one of the best reasoning as to why we need to get rid of billionaires. "The problem isn't whether rich people believe stupid shit; it's the fact that when a rich person believes something stupid, that belief can turn into torment for dozens, thousands, or millions of people.” #billionaires https://pluralistic.net/2026/03/09/autocrats-of-trade-2/#witness-the-firepower-of-this-fully-armed-and-operational-battle-station

The Real Litmus Test for Democratic Presidential Candidates
Supporting a wealth tax.

"Let me suggest to you a much more effective and straightforward litmus test for candidates. It is: Do they support a wealth tax? If they do not, then they are not going to be willing to attack the underlying problem that got us to our troubling position in the first place. Do not cast your presidential vote for any Democrat unwilling to support a wealth tax."

Another great reason not to do anything with OpenAI. And those working at OpenAI realize they are working for Nazis https://mastodon.social/@SteveThompson/116059341113693325

This sums the #VENEZUELA situation up nicely:

For anyone questioning the legality of attacking Venezuela and abducting their leader:

Remember we're talking about a highly corrupt leader, a known criminal who used his high office to make billions for himself, and has manipulated elections to stay in power, has used his military against his own citizens, has protected his corrupt friends and punished his political enemies.

And the President of Venezuela did some bad things too.
