What if? On the 14th in DC, people would throw eggs at the equipment rolling down Constitution Ave (but NOT at the troops) and chanted "No kings!" Thoughts?

It was never about "they should just come here legally" was it?

No large corporation ever: yeah, we'll support our loyal customers during the tariffs madness by just accepting slightly less profits instead of raising prices. This is why we need to boycott them. 4/7 -4/14

He's ill.

Finally figured out how to pronounce *DOGE*... It's "doosh"

NEW YORK, NEW YORK, NEW YORK… here’s something you can do…

@sharonabarona.bsky.social Hey there, it's Que. Followed you, got me back?

I have a hunch that jfk jr's confirmation to head HHS doesn't really matter. Their goal is to dismantle all gov't agencies either way. Congrats Jr., but *you're fired*

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

"We are in a massive massive humanitarian crisis which Trump has inflicted, a man-made crisis... he said 'no more aid' overnight... it should be one of the biggest stories in America... people are going to die because of what Trump, Musk & Rubio have been doing." Me on MSNBC today with Ali Velshi:

“These are the leaders the Democratic Party is looking to and they’re absent...you’re not going to do it, get out of the way and let others lead, please.” @julieroginsky.bsky.social on Democrats lack of action against Elon Musk.

What if the Ides of March happened in February? Wouldn't be a day too soon...

They'll get away with everything because... who's left to stop them?

"Always follow the money!"

Bluesky needs more emojis response options than just a love/like with the stuff going on these days. How can you *like* posts about the death of democracy???

@timothysnyder.bsky.social Can you please repost your article about the need for an opposing "shadow cabinet" Democratic Leadership must act *now,* not in a few months, to create such a team able to instantly govern when the current regime collapses due to sheer incompetence.

First they came for the immigrants, and I spoke out, because I’ve read the damn poem before and I know how it ends.

The felon admin wastes no time to follow the law. Impeach him.

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

This is... quite a new way to fight the War on Drugs, isn't it, MAGA voters? Is this what you voted for? When you were pulling the lever, were you telling one another you wanted to see more people connected to heroin distribution on the streets? Is that what you were telling journalists? Or God?

Reminder to all: Please, everyone, stop calling people in Congress our "leaders." They are our Elected Representatives, aka public servants, but NOT our leaders. Leaders follow their own ideas, Representatives must represent the will of their constituents.

Bryan MacCormack, the executive director of a New York-based immigrant rights group, was pulled over by CBP with two undocumented passengers in the vehicle. He knew his rights, refused to acknowledge their "warrant", and despite CBP threatening him, the agents eventually were forced to let him go.

"We need leaders not in love with money but in love with Justice "Not in love with publicity but in love with humanity "Leaders who can subject their particular egos to the pressing urgencies of the great cause of freedom." -MLK, Jr #MLKday #WeShallOvercome

What would I ask? "What was your analysis of the Houthi Bombing in October? What counsel would you give POTUS regarding next actions?" "What should the US strategy be in Syria ?" " How would you counter Chinese aggression on the south China Sea ?" "How would you assure civilian oversight of DOD"

Who else is really looking forward to not watching the Inauguration? 👀 👎

While I truly appreciate bsky, it feels like it's a lot harder to find/see/keep up with just regular posts and daily events from my friends vs. suckbook. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix that? Point in case: the sunrise this am was spectacular but the android cam didn't capture the deep red...
