Retired, married democrat in a purple state (NC). Just trying to figure out this entire mess we’re in. Didn't we get this fixed back in the 60/70's? Anyone concerned about what our grandchildren are going to inherit? Please no DM's, Nazis, Crypto, Magats

Supporting Trump means you support lawlessness, you’re fine with men who assault women, you think deporting immigrants en masse is just fine, you think being a racist and misogynist is appropriate. So if you support Trump we cannot be friends!

$10 Million fraud!

America? Gurl you in danger.

They're arresting Members of Congress. Perhaps a sternly-worded letter is in order. Or, perhaps, it's time to play some damn hardball with the DOJ.

Me me me me

GOV. @andybeshearky.bsky.social : “All children are children of God. I didn’t want a legislature picking on those kids. If they show them hate, I’ll show them love.” 🏳️‍🌈 As @GovBillLee signs hate bills (despite having a sister who is married to a woman), next door Beshear leads with love.

Good damn thing they resisted — to see the looming economic threat, look no further than Florida’s insurance crisis. Storm warnings ahead.

In the wake of #JoeBiden 's #cancer announcement, #DonaldTrumpJr grabbed headlines for all the wrong reasons and the the world is holding him accountable! What was the classless and disgusting thing he said, and who is denouncing the callousness he inherited from his father? youtu.be/A7T8zaDYLxA?...

The Rules Committee meets at 1 AM on Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to ram through this disastrous bill. Why? Because they don't want you to see them ripping healthcare from millions of Americans. You do not hold a hearing for a bill at 1 AM unless you're completely ashamed of it.

Books permit us to voyage through time, to tap the wisdom of our ancestors.

Trump's big beautiful bill expands the estate tax exemption yet again. While millions will get kicked off healthcare and lose crucial food assistance, Republicans are enabling the super-rich to pass down their obscene wealth virtually tax free. We must stop this bill.

BREAKING: Over 195,000 British people Just signed a petition asking the Government to cancel Trump’s second state visit to the UK

"The right thing to do is not to cut medicaid" - Sen. Hawley. Well, even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Good News, per Democracy Docket! "SCOTUS declined to take a case from Michigan GOP lawmakers who used the radical independent state legislature theory to challenge two voter-approved pro-voting amendments to the Michigan Constitution. The amendments will remain in effect." www.democracydocket.com

The internet is forever, Ted.

. @slotkin.senate.gov has announced her intended support for legislation that would CUT and FREEZE the wages of farm workers - one of the most underpaid professions in the US. This is just wrong! Call Senator Slotkin TODAY! Urge her to withdraw her support. (202) 759 - 4087

Stolen Valor

Ole Trumpo is still doing the same song and dance, praising the non-outcome of another phone call and blathering on about “trade” with Russia. “They know details of a negotiation that nobody else would be aware of”??? Meaningless drivel!

Whether you get your forecast from an app on your phone, a website or a meteorologist on TV, most of the underlying information comes from the federal government. By @rhersher.bsky.social

Generally, when you hear that someone has cancer, your natural response is to say you’re sorry and hope they have a full recovery—unless, of course, you’re a sociopath

You get both granny.

The United States has become a cautionary tale. The only bright spot in this tale for U.S. citizens is the rest of the world seems to be learning the lesson. What will it take for a third of this country to finally understand what evil they have done?

And when they've broken everything and made people's lives worse in dozens of different ways, the GOP response is going to be complaining that the government is broken and we need to try New Things instead. No, it was working. They broke it. Don't let them weasel out of responsibility.

It's remarkable how much of this administration's agenda has been laser focused on simply making life worse for ordinary Americans.
