I've officially dumped X. Trying to recover from this disastrous election and enjoy life sort of. Also doing my best to maintain my sanity in these insane times.

Here’s a rare member of the U.S. Senate who seems to understand how close we are to a dictatorship.

@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "The Christians in Congress should be feeding the hungry, but they're cutting food stamps. They should be healing the sick, but they are cutting Medicaid. They should be standing up to the billionaire class, but instead they're cutting their taxes."

I’m glad this made the Times.

The Ukrainians hid drones in the top of shipping containers that opened up and then took off and attacked Russias strategic bomber fleets after they were transported to the site. This is modern warfare at its finest. This is history book stuff. Russia just found out what a modern Trojan horse is.

The Trump administration is working with private companies like Palantir to create detailed reports on every American, which could help them weaponize our personal information in their quest to deport immigrants and punish critics. This is a huge threat to our constitutional rights.

I prefer Senators who don’t tell people fearing losing their healthcare that they’re “going to die.”

It’s a scam. HOW MANY TIMES DO WE HAVE TO SAY THIS? 🎤 Is this thing on???

More gas-price fairy dust. 🧚 @nbcnews.com

Vile. Despicable. Loathsome. Odious. Abhorrent. Cruel. Heartless. Disgusting. Detestable. I really can’t find the right word to describe how I feel about Donald Trump’s spawn.

Despite all the chaos It's still Tatonka Tuesday

Keep your hands off the American people.

I'm old enough to remember when @petebuttigieg.bsky.social was in charge and @unitedairlinesual.bsky.social wasn't warning us not to fly out of Newark Liberty Airport. www.nj.com/news/2025/05...

Granddaughter of a Navy vet. Daughter of a Navy vet. Mother of an Army soldier. Not one damn dime should be spent on a military parade for a draft dodger…

When the President of the United States says he doesn’t know if he should uphold the Constitution, it should be a searing red line for every American. If you let him ignore ANY aspect of the Constitution you embolden him to ignore more of it, including the parts that secure YOUR freedoms & rights.

I grew up believing that we had learned the lessons of the German poem and Martin Luther King Jr's speeches. We would all speak out if we saw democracy threatened and the rule of law under attack. I will always speak out against wrong. I will always stand up for democracy. I will not back down.

Tomorrow, the Senate is voting on Trump’s pick to head up Social Security. I will be voting for every American who counts on Social Security. I'm a hard NO on Frank Bisignano.

TELSEY begins tracking price increases over the past week. Some highlights: * Abercrombie jeans: up 33% * Amazon Echo: up 38.5% * Target / Barbie doll: up 42.9%

Our neighbor to the North is lead by a brilliant economist, who is tough, but fair and decent. Our neighbor to the South is lead by a brilliant engineer, who is tough, but fair and decent. We are run by a total ignoramus who is flawed in every way a human being can be & is destroying our country.
