Mike Lee was born with every conceivable advantage in life. His father was US Solicitor Gen & dean of BYU Law, where Mike went to school. Older brother UT Sup Ct justice. Then he got jobs where family connections certainly help open doors. But he decided he wanted to be Catturd.

This man is my hero because he’s a member of the United States Air Force and is standing by his #Oath to the #Constitution! I’m hoping that since he has taken the lead others will follow because this is what a true American Soldier looks like! Remember your Oath to the Constitution

A wannabe dictator is attacking the pillars of our democracy, but We the People are rising up. Join Saturday's nationwide peaceful protests to reject Trump's authoritarianism: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

For tomorrow:

This man gives me hope.

The country is being run by drug addicts, reality tv stars and fox news hosts.

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

“No one, apparently, is willing to prevent a single man from destroying the world economy, wrecking financial markets, forcing this country and other countries into recession – if that’s what he feels like doing when he gets up tomorrow morning.” Anne Applebaum

It’s a recalibration of economic control. Oligarchs don’t live paycheck to paycheck. They have the capital to buy market dips and recoup faster, acquiring more assets at fire sale prices along the way. When the dust finally settles, they will own more. The rest of us will own less. A lot less.

WATCH: If you REALLY want to understand just how lazy, moronic & dishonest Trump’s “math” is, that he claims is the basis for his “reciprocal tariffs” on nations all over the world (spoiler: they aren’t reciprocal), please watch this excellent CBC explanation by Andrew Chang. Then please share it.

Please welcome PRESIDENT @barackobama.bsky.social to BlueSky,,, working in my Flaverification,,,

Sanders: I'm not a mathematician but I do know that 99% is a hell of a lot bigger number than 1%. I do know that if we stand together, we are the vast majority of people. We can defeat trumpism

Raskin: "There's an absolute attack on the Constitution taking place by an administration which views the Constitution as just inconvenient furniture that's gotta be kicked out of the way."

I stand 100% with Jack Schlossberg and his Grandfather.

It's not a disagreement between positions. One side--your idiot president--is threatening a sovereign nation in what could be construed a violation of international law, and the other side is pointing out the simple fact that your president is a fucking idiot.

The Liquor Control Board of Ontario is the single largest purchaser of alcohol in the world. The Premier of Ontario ordered them to stop purchasing American products. No restaurant, no grocery store, no one anywhere in Ontario, can find American booze. FAFO, MAGAts. 🇨🇦

@aoc.bsky.social: "You have a right to see your elected member of Congress... Our job is to hear from people. And if you aren't doing town halls because your own residents and members of your community are upset with what you're doing, the answer is you’ve got to own your decisions."

Zelensky's take-down of Brian Glenn over the suit question is underrated. "Maybe I'll get one after the war. Better than yours. Maybe cheaper." Low-key told the man he overpaid for a cheap suit. Don't argue with comedians. They'll destroy you.

📌"Because Zelenskyy has tasted gun powder and breathed the odious smell of death on the battlefield, he wasn't about to be pushed around by some morbidly obese, 78-yr-old yacht club bully and his toady, who think swinging a sand wedge to free a golf ball from some bunker is dangerous business." 1/3

This is so good. “Nature has its way of taking out the weak and the not so well and the injured. The eagle likely thought it would be able to take it out quite easily,” Sequeira said. “But, it wasn’t.” www.theguardian.com/environment/...

"We have decided to increase funding for the production of tanks and helicopters in Europe. Next week, France will gather the chiefs of staff of countries ready to guarantee future peace in Ukraine." "The future of Europe will not be decided in Washington or Moscow." — Macron. #StandWithUkraine

That’s right. 🇺🇦

HERO vs ZERO I'm in a state of shock & still trying to process yesterday's shameful, traitorous debacle in the WH: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY. Our standing in the world has plummeted overnight, but the repercussions will be felt forevermore. #SlavaUkraini🇺🇦 #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

I will never forget the photo of Zelenskyy’s face after he saw Russia’s war crimes in Bucha in 2022. He seemed to age years in an afternoon. Watching him constantly cross the world asking for aid that should have been thrown at him is one of the deepest shames of our age.

It is really hard to watch people willfully tear down an infrastructure that allowed us to double lifespans, drastically reduce poverty, and become one of the richest countries in the world.

The GOP passed a budget resolution tonight that will gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs — as 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Why? To finance more tax cuts for the top 1%. We have socialism in this country for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

All we need for peace in Ukraine is for Russian soldiers to return to Russia.

Look, if you believe in kings, then let’s be honest—you can’t call yourself a patriot. You just can’t. You don’t get to wrap yourself in the flag of a country that was quite literally founded on rejecting a monarchy while, at the same time, wishing for one. That’s not how this works.
