10 Things About Daily BTS (A Thread) This post aims to introduce this page to anyone who stumbles upon it- ARMY or not. A quick disclaimer: we are not in any way officially connected to BTS, BigHit Music, or Hybe. We're just here as a safe space for anyone who shares the same love for BTS.

Step up, stand up, speak out.   This moment is hard — I don't dispute that, but this isn't the time to be afraid. Make your voice heard, whether it’s at a town hall or on the phone, so Donald Trump and Republicans know how sick and tired you are of them cutting your services.

Donald Trump preys off people feeling hopeless and being too scared to fight. I won't let Trump take away my hope or make me too afraid to stand tall and fight. I continue to believe that if we fight for democracy we will win.

Interesting how MAGA thinks the jailed J6 rioters, who made war on the U.S. Capitol, were somehow political prisoners but also argue that Mahmoud Khalil, a foreign student here legally who demonstrated on a college campus and was arrested and detained without being charged with any crime, is not.

Due process “is how any of us can have confidence that the folks being packed onto airplanes and whisked off to El Salvador are members of TdA—as opposed to US citizens; political dissidents; or others whom the Trump administration would just as soon be rid of.” www.stevevladeck.com/p/bonus-133-...

She said, “May I ask you to have mercy Mr. President on those in our communities whose children fear that their parents will be taken away." If Mike Johnson thinks that’s “radical,” perhaps he has a fundamental misunderstanding of his own religion.

Did you vote for less airplane safety? Because that’s what Trump’s busy doing. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

MURKOWSKI comes out against Hegseth for DOD, first GOP opponent. "The leader of the Department of Defense must demonstrate and model the standards of behavior and character we expect of all servicemembers, and Mr. Hegseth’s nomination to the role poses significant concerns that I cannot overlook."

Well, here we are again. Up at 2 am.

Deserves a follow.

I spent a decade on and off reporting on one of the executive orders that Trump revoked on Tuesday: Executive Order 11246, signed by LBJ in 1965. Because of that, I took a minute and wrote down some thoughts to explain just how awful this is — and how ahistorical Trump’s claims are.

Question for people in broadcast media: If you interview JD Vance, shouldn't your first question be about his claim that "obviously" no one was talking about pardoning violent insurrectionists? And shouldn't he be asked this q at the start of *every* interview? Because ...

Eggs up 37%. You can thank Bird flu in the streets and Bird brain in the White House. www.kcur.org/news/2025-01...

Please remember: Functional Depression does exist. You joke. You work. You take care of your kids and significant other. But the whole time, you are drowning in your own thoughts And nobody knows it. If you ever feel that way, please reach out to a professional.

Their faith lets them worship power while they’re offended by mercy. It’s not Christianity they’re practicing.

Siri… show me what joy looks like 🖤 🔊 🎥 orbplanet

Let’s speed this up a little, yeah? 👀

Crushed 29 million! Great work BlueSky! 💃🕺🎉💃🕺🎉💃🕺

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH** * Currently paused by Executive Order ** Grant reviews now all canceled www.kcur.org/news/2025-01...

I’m not at all surprised. 💙

The past several days have proven without a shadow of a doubt that Project 2025 is real and underway. And those who warned America about it were right.

Went to Costco today. I can’t really complain about the price of eggs — because there weren’t any. Not a single one. Because Bird flu, but 🤫 were not supposed to talk about it. Day 4: Things are going well.

Right out of the gate they are detaining U.S. citizens and saying their “papers”are fake. It was always a lie.

I appear on @CNN often. And if saying this means my days at CNN are over, then fuck it. CNN, removing @Acosta.bsky.social from his am show is cowardly bullshit. Acosta is an independent, unafraid host. To demote him to appease the crybaby in the White House is pathetic. Shame on u CNN. Don’t do it.

Gross perverts

Predictably, the public is lifting up Budde is a shining example of TRUTH TO POWER. But let's be clear: her theology is NORMAL for Progressive Christians. (She's even called it this...it was the setting that was unique) JOIN THE MOVEMENT not just lift up a "hero." substack.com/home/post/p-...

The only ones that will not suffer is them. Everyone else= hogwash.

BREAKING 🔥🔥🔥 Oh look! Pete Hegseth’s tattoo. Sported by Proud Boys in DC yesterday and Christian Nationalists!

A federal court has declared that warrantless searches of US person’s communications collected for national security purposes is unconstitutional. Now it’s our job to make sure Congress knows that when they renew this law in a little over a year.

Do one thing every day to help someone currently in harms way. Learn how to identify and protect neighbours from ICE agents. Stand up for the LGBTQ+ community. Wear a mask in solidarity with the disabled community. Learn about anti-Blackness and commit to doing better. Don’t let hate win.

Because we can never stopping making it crystal clear how fucked up this is.

Senator Chuck Schumer continues to torch Pete Hegseth: "Is man, with a known history of excessive drinking, the guy you want at the other end of the phone at 2AM in a crisis? In control of the nuclear codes? Who are we kidding?" Go Chuck!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

It’s time to deport Leon

It says a lot that trump spoke more harshly about a woman of the church, Bishop Mariann Budde, who asked him kindly to "have mercy," than he has EVER spoken about a murderous dictator like Vladimir Putin. Fucking coward.

If you feel offended by Bishop Budde’s plea for compassion and mercy, then you are many things, but “Christian” is not one of them.

DID YOU KNOW for 25 years Matthew Shepard had no permanent resting place due to concerns his grave would be vandalized Reverend Budde learned of this, she invited the Shepards to inter him inside the Washington National Cathedral. www.matthewshepard.org/matthew-shep... She was and is a real hero.
