I suppose that makes her just like the rest of us.

It's been a really tough week. I just can't believe this is our new reality for the next four years. Thanks for the article, Peter.

For the love of all that is decent PLEASE stop saying four years. Trump has REPEATEDLY said things like “you’ll never need to vote again” ignoring that is so dangerous. Our democracy was stolen by a terrorist group called the heritage donation. They aren’t going to have fair elections again.

Foundation that is. Fucking autocorrect

juliskake.bsky.social•24 days ago

No. “Donation” is actually rather apt — as in the best democracy money can buy. I thought it was intentional sarcasm. Sometimes AutoCorrect is prophetic.

Paywall.

Not saying that’s wrong. News purveyors need to eat, too. But if Dems want to address coming across as elitist and exclusive, how helpful is it to exclude a huge chunk of ppl who don’t subscribe to the @nytimes.com & #WAPO?

Point of order, I thought the paper byline had changed? From "Democracy Dies in Darkness" to "All the News That Fits, We Print" or something like that...

The incompetent and unprincipled are now in charge.

“Leavitt appeared wearing a purple jacket and a gold cross, of a size commonly associated with the warding off of vampires.” Nearly spit out my coffee, but coffee is expensive now so….

For those of us who canceled WAPO, can you share a gift article OR better, give a synopsis?

juliskake.bsky.social•24 days ago

THIS. AMEN!Unless we can micropay to read ONE article, linking to paywalled sources feels elitist and exclusive. STOP. No wonder we lost the election.

I'm pretty sure Trump just signs the shit. It's like 2nd term Reagan all over again, he doesn't really know what's going on he's signing stuff his "people" hand him
