“IF THEY SPIT, WE WILL HIT, and I promise you they will be hit harder than they have ever been hit before. Such disrespect will not be tolerated!”—trump. Yet he pardoned more the 1500 violent criminals who attacked me and my colleagues.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. #AccountabilityForJanuary6th

Counterpoint: Robert E. Lee was a treasonous loser who gladly slaughtered his fellow Americans in defense of slavery while being a mildly above average military tactician. He should’ve been hanged in Lexington.

If you are angry with a protester for throwing a rock or lighting a fire, that is precisely what Trump *wanted* to happen. He is the cause of this behavior. Hold Trump, who has all the power, accountable, not some desperate kid on the street Trump wants to use as an excuse for totalitarianism.

Mission creep. "National Guard troops began protecting immigration agents as they made arrests in Los Angeles on Tuesday, an expansion of their duties that had been limited to protecting federal property." apnews.com/article/los-...

In case you forgot: - Trump is on the Epstein files - Trump is trying to pass a budget that’ll cause 10M people to lose their healthcare and which will massively increase ICE and DHS’ budgets - Trump is invading Los Angeles to stop protests against ICE.

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work. You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules. Get your lies straight.

Thou shalt not force good horses to trample peaceful protesters and pretend thou art the good guys.

Bigly mistake, ABC

Mayor Karen Bass isn't taking any shit from a felon.

"Mainstream media has a duty to inform its audience that Trump/Miller policies are in fact hateful. But it rarely does so. Moran is to be commended for speaking truth to power. Speaking truth to power is, after all, what journalists are supposed to do." — @nberlat.bsky.social

EXACTLY!

Democrats should introduce articles of impeachment for RFK jr Even if it doesn’t work, which it probably won’t, democrats need to make clear that he’s not gonna get away with it

Lame-duck washed dead-ender desperately seeking relevance.

So hard to believe that Republican senators were hornswoggled by Jr. and believed all his promises.

Health insurance companies have lost the trust of the American people, and for good reason. They can begin to restore it by ensuring that access to vaccines remains covered and ignoring the quackery and utter nonsense likely to come from Kennedy’s new vaccine committee.

This was always clearly the objective and many in the media also insisted on treating anyone who said so clearly like they were some kind of lunatic bsky.app/profile/carn...

This is what it looks like without a United States Congress.

Trump wants a confrontation, wants to see the situation erupt. No American president should behave like this. No kings.

"An incompetent warning shot or the act of a coward, either way it needs to be properly investigated... how is it okay for your police force to be firing at unarmed Australian journalists?" Karl Stefanovic, an anchor for the Australian broadcast channel that @laurentomasi.bsky.social works for.
