gwennecohen.bsky.social - Profile | ThreadSky | a Reddit-style client for Bluesky

I ran an experiment, simultaneously posting articles on Bluesky and X, and then testing to see how many people actually clicked and read them. The numbers on Bluesky are higher, both because the X algorithm downranks journalism, and because Bluesky attracts readers, not just shitposters.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

Donald Trump sued me for racketeering, I won and did not back down. Donald Trump tried to have me investigated, I did not back down. Donald Trump named me in executive orders, I did not back down. If your lawyers are so afraid that they are cutting deals with Trump, you have the wrong lawyers.

Yes rambling incoherently again, but apparently it’s an ode to William Leavitt, the racist postwar developer of suburbs who boasted about his use of racially restrictive deed covenants & continued to try to enforce them after SCOTUS ruled them unenforceable in 1948. Everyone’s got to have heroes.

In times like this, integrity matters. Well done 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽 Top lawyers walked out of Paul Weiss to start their own firm—right after the firm cut a shady deal with the White House to dodge an executive order that would’ve limited its business. Some folks still have a spine.

“What the heck’s the commissioner of Social Security?" That's a real question from Frank Bisignano...the commissioner of Social Security. Millions of Americans depend on Social Security. They should be able to trust that the head of the agency even knows what the job is.

I had a lady respond to one of my posts on Facebook and ask if I would ever come to Kearney, Missouri. I told her if she got a group together, I would be there. This is the group. Don’t ever feel alone. There are Democrats in every corner of every little town across the country.

Trump officials' showings at hearings today were disasters, but it doesn't make headlines bc the media's default assumption is that Rs are clownish rascals. But if Dems didn't know what was happening at their agencies or what habeas corpus is, it'd be front page news. This is a key media asymmetry.

My loyal companion Bode died last night of canine lymphoma. Since 2016, he was by my side at work and at play. He was always happy and no matter how bad other things were, he always made me smile. Quite simply, he was the best dog ever. I already miss him terribly.

The absolute disgrace taking place today in front of cameras in the White House is yet another reminder that for all the talk of Joe Biden's failures, the people who failed America the most are our citizens. Empowering this guy (again) was a foreseeable disaster we'll be lucky to survive.

We should be investing in rural communities and making them better places to build a life & raise a family - not shutting down rural hospitals by choking off their funding. Saving rural hospitals is one more reason to call your Representative and speak out against this GOP attempt to cut Medicaid.

Jeffries: There are three big issues with the bill 1. It represents the largest cut to healthcare in American history. 2. It represents the largest cut to nutritional assistance in American history. 3. All of this is being done to enact the largest tax break for billionaires in American history.

They wanted to pass this evil budget to take away healthcare from millions earlier today. It’s still stuck in the rules committee cause House Dems introduced over 500 amendments and we are lined up to debate on them. Delaying is important. Keep up the pressure on these Congressional Republicans.

Fernández: He refused to read the bill he wrote. They are so ashamed of it, they couldn’t even read it aloud—because they know it’s shameful to give tax breaks to tanning beds and take away hospital beds. Who likes tanning beds? There’s a certain personality who has a very orange hue about him.
