Unrepentent. Fuck Trump, he's a Russian plant. Americans will not tolerate a dictatorship.

It's time for America to start demanding that the military live up to oath they all took. No more "Thank you for your service." Let's try, "Shame, shame on you all!"

Farmers: Our new welfare queens.

I'm still not convinced that there won't be another election, so talk of a third term is moot to begin with.

I keep saying this...

"The end to the due process of the law leads to situations where a government official can argue that the lack of a criminal record for someone perceived to be an enemy of those in power just proves that person is a criminal." Heather Cox Richardson We are walking into rising waters.

I have been off Bsky for about two weeks due to work and I've had to suffer the abuses of the current administration in silence, but today I'm back and the first thing I want to shout out to eveeryone is this because this is fucking dangerous! www.nytimes.com/2025/03/19/u...

The danger of doing nothing on the legislative front, right now that is, is that the administration is going into overdrive, plunging headlong towards declaring a totalitarian state by subordinating the federal law enforcement apparatus, then the military, then the intelligence community.

The only place in North Carolina, and in all the other states, that a cop is required to tell the truth is in court, under oath. Cops lie. They lie all the time. And most importantly, they don't give a shit about your rights, and the NCSHP is THE WORST. www.wral.com/story/former...

There are people in the state who want to give Tillis props for 'standing up to Trump'. My comment on our local Indivisible page was pretty strong on the subject but nevertheless true.

This is the state of voter suppression in NC: Any lawsuit that uses gerrymandering as a cause of action will fail in the GOP courts, so in order to litigate we have to come up with 'novelty' causes of action. Accusing the GOP of cheating? www.wral.com/story/nc-vot...

Understatement of the day (not trolling for followers so much as I'm entertained by the picture...)

Spread this around to the idiots: youtube.com/shorts/2KHWV...

Some of us remember all too welll what it was like living through the 70's, and one day...maybe...the stupid, stupid people in this country are going to realizee that the Republicans don't have a clue about how to run a successful economy. www.reuters.com/markets/us/s...

NC Farm Bureau has always enjoyed a stellar reputation in NC for quality and service at a reasonable price, but the truth of the matter is that they are just another insurance company. When faced with claims they will deny, deny, then litigate, delay, delay, and depose. www.wral.com/consumer/5on...

Maybe 10 or 15 years ago I used to joke that if the Republicans in NC thought they could get away with it they would outlaw the Democratic Party. I don't see the funny in that anymore. www.wral.com/story/republ...

Guess she's getting either fired or...re-educated.

This is more frightening than a lot of the knucklehead bullshit the administration is engaging in. This poses a real threat to Americans in the opposition.

I keep telling people that the judiciary is NOT going to save us. Stay tuned, Trump & his imps are going to defy the courts, and SCOTUS isn't going to stop them because once he defies lower courts? Who gives a rat's ass about the Supremes?

We will give them a great price on North Carolina!

Let's get right to the meat: fElon has already neutered Congress, and if Trump successfully defies a lower court order, then he will have all it takes to defy a SCOTUS order and there will only be one branch of government left standing. 1/x

It is past time for those of us on the center-left to pass on the challenge that we have to rise to, that we need to re-evaluate the ethics and the moral underpinnings of our belief that we can peacefully protest and vote away the oncoming dictatorship. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/26/o...

Concisely summarizing the road ahead for those of us who already saw this coming: www.nytimes.com/2025/02/11/o...

I always think it's nice to find some people out in the world who have figured the same things out that I have, but this isn't something I ever thought would occur to me. I wish it hadn't been a conclusion either of us came to.

Here's hoping that they don't get 'nice parting gifts'.

Most of that money is probably going for security details for the adolescent minions doing the actual dirtywork. At least the private security gets them into the best clubs they couldn't get into before...
