A lot is happening. Thanks for discussing such important topics. Here's my podcast that's compiling observations from the election. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkfzhhEJ-vTs9Aqby5AjtszJ-cUowkZ-E

They're not worrying Russia. They're simply giddy for the picks.

nickknock1.bsky.social•96 days ago

I think a cabinet has never fit a president better 🤣

Dems lost to a firehose of lies.

melissap1.bsky.social•97 days ago

A suggestion for Dems, all anti-Trumpers. We've entered into a whole new era and the primary threat, aka Trump, operates on an entirely unexplored arena of depravity. There's no remorse, nor morality. It's purely transactional with profit as goal. We need to stop bringing knives to a gun fight.

nana-p024.bsky.social•96 days ago

Seriously, it’s an uncharted area of chaos and cynicism. There will no longer be any rule of law and you can kiss goodbye any prior sense of fairness. It’ll become a survival of the fittest type of show…

jamroast.bsky.social•97 days ago

What went wrong? Kamala was campaigning to the base not potential voters, she alienated over half the country!

shadowgeary.bsky.social•96 days ago

She didn’t campaign to the base. She campaigned to a centrist electorate. Unfortunately the electorate this election cycle wasn’t centrist like 2000 or 2004 or even 2016. It was a right wing electorate. I think it would have been difficult for any Democrat to win the presidency.

mckiersky.bsky.social•97 days ago

nope

antilusional.bsky.social•97 days ago

And Trump kept on distracting through his daily rhetoric.

mariohere.bsky.social•97 days ago

This is a rare photo of Hitler congratulating Jared Kushner's father for being picked as the new ambassador to France 🇫🇷.

Thank you, LP for all that you do for us and for the truth

pnw-gardenlady.bsky.social•97 days ago

It’s not the economy! It’s the racism, stupid!

nana-p024.bsky.social•96 days ago

What happened is we failed to translate our ideals into practical layman’s terms so that the ignorant could care enough to join the fight. Not an easy task, but someone will have to speak to these people’s needs…

eliminatefascist.bsky.social•96 days ago

But how are you fighting them? What is being done?

marinekat7229.bsky.social•97 days ago

Fight harder this go-round please

mrmike1962.bsky.social•97 days ago

Please stop claiming that Trump’s picks are worrying the voters. They are not. 76M voters spoke loudly that they don’t give a shit. You’re just making them defensive. Start with “this is what voters want”. They chose the shit show. Paint it on them. Start the campaign of embarrassment.

joancone.bsky.social•97 days ago

You failed to stop HIM!

So much to listen to today, after a weekend off enjoying peace and quiet.

Out of the problem! Into the solution!

Question????Is it possible to impeach Trump even before he takes office????

LETS GO AMERICAN PATRIOTS! Peaceful march in Washington DC ON INAUGURATION DAY 2025. For our history and our kids.

dvcondreay.bsky.social•96 days ago

I saw someone describe his cabinet as more of a “junk drawer”, which I feel is a perfect description.

dvcondreay.bsky.social•96 days ago

While we’re talking about the junk drawers I have dried-up pens, dead batteries, tape dispensers with 1" of tape left, empty staplers, boxes of staples containing only loose staples, rubber bands so old they snap when you stretch them, and a bunch of burned-out light bulbs.

dvcondreay.bsky.social•96 days ago

Oh, and random locks with no keys. Time to take out the trash.

thescottc.bsky.social•97 days ago

So, I try to make a point here on BSKY about not using foul language. I both enjoy and respect this place.

That said, excuse me for one moment. WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!

thescottc.bsky.social•97 days ago

If creating a deputy position (ala USCIS Ken Cuccinelli 2019) for the Director of the FBI with a dude who turned his name into a FUCKING "$" logo for the sole purpose of bumping out Christopher Wray and bypassing Senate confirmation is okay with ANYONE, get your head checked.

thescottc.bsky.social•97 days ago

Okay. I now return to my previous rated G comments...

navyeagle.bsky.social•96 days ago

Glad to see this on Bluesky. I dropped twitter because of the toxic republican BS.

ssttn.bsky.social•96 days ago

WHERE IS TRUMP!?

Does he have DEMENTIA???

WHERE IS JD VANCE? is he avoiding answering questions?

WE NEED and DESERVE a LIVE PRESS CONFERENCE. NOW!!!

WHO is making the DECISIONS behind the scenes?

I LOATHE that dude but we can't have ELON MUSK running this country

ianxz.bsky.social•97 days ago

Maybe voters should require candidates to make their cabinet picks before elections.

Trumps choices alone, should be disqualifying.

nikmed45.bsky.social•96 days ago

I’m sorry, but don’t you feel like the reason he won is because right wing media will say and do anything to spend whatever he says, and does to make it sound glorious while left media won’t challenge it at all?

njiealhagi.bsky.social•97 days ago

Trump is turning American into Russia!!

kmfh.bsky.social•96 days ago

Love you guys but give it up already about WHY WE LOST. My “ working class” bros couldn’t vote for a woman. Our neighbors couldn’t vote for an “uppity” Black person. Trump oozed haters out from under their rocks. And …. They hated wearing masks.

will-edit.bsky.social•97 days ago

We need a side-by-side graphic of the positions, of Biden's team, and of the upcoming nutcases.

dieter-mault.bsky.social•97 days ago

You just need more AR15. And people who know how to use them.

authorprm.bsky.social•96 days ago

Thank you for all the hard work you do!

duzabear.com•97 days ago

I love [sic] how some try to make it any more complicated than the fact the average American voter is mysogynist.
Trump lost to a man, he won against both women.
It's true until proven not.
Open your eyes.

nootka.bsky.social•97 days ago

Two basic reasons Trump won the election: his voters bought the Trump myth; millions of Harris supporters didn't vote. All the woe that follows—rests on their shoulders.

I wish I could stand to listen to Molly Jong Fast's voice and dialect, but I cannot. It's torture. I can listen to Rick all day every day, but no to Molly.

America will be a failed state within a year or two

hfior.bsky.social•97 days ago

Republicans take the position that government isn’t necessary & shouldn’t be funded. Then, they get elected and put incompetent people in important positions. Then people believe republicans’ arguments about how government isn’t necessary. Pretty simple

rationalpoet37.bsky.social•97 days ago

What went wrong was on the GOP side, not sane people.

paralegalinpa.bsky.social•97 days ago

What went wrong? The same demographic that loves to cosplay Handmaid’s Tale and sport pink vagina hats once again voted for the benefit of their proximity to patriarchy because to them it’s never about the greater good.

chrisbritt.bsky.social•97 days ago

Keep up the fight!

nirvanwa.bsky.social•97 days ago

Feels like y’all need a spinoff that relentlessly lampoons Donnie in TikTok

Call it ‘TikTok MFer’

TikTok was where dems lost hearts and minds in 2024

dtheavenger.bsky.social•96 days ago

One thing went wrong, cheating, disinformation, and rigging by Republicans. Any other topic is a lie.

I wonder if his followers are starting to worry. Do you think the penny has dropped?

cindylee.bsky.social•96 days ago

Really curious about what is being done by Dems to limit looming damage done by tRump & his arsonists.

tessiefair.bsky.social•96 days ago

It depends on how much money you can donate to Rick Wilson and the Lincoln Project.

eatonsbeaver.bsky.social•97 days ago

Democrat strategist Julie Roginsky claimed the US Military will shoot her and others protesting mass deportations of illegal aliens.

President Trump recently appointed Tom Homan as Border Czar

This better be discussed! Are they really doing this? Shooting people?

kevinkelly4.bsky.social•97 days ago

@lincolnproject.bsky.social to begin with there's no point talking about why Kamala lost I like Kamala but she's a laughing cow laughing when the world is on fire and she had no policies pie in the sky when you die that was it for her . Trump won although not by much because the Biden and Harris

kevinkelly4.bsky.social•97 days ago

Administration was @lincolnproject.bsky.social not as successful as it should have been and Ron de satan nose picker and billy Mitchell are attacking me now because I am for Gavin Newsom In 28 and you should be to as for kash Patel for the FBI I can think somebody is ok and still think they have no

kevinkelly4.bsky.social•97 days ago

Business @lincolnproject.bsky.social near the FBI although he would be better than bill Barr and a lot more honest because I think people deserve to know about how the bushes did 9/11 with the Saudis I think people deserve to know about Epstein island and JFK and so forth bill Barr doesn't because

kevinkelly4.bsky.social•97 days ago

He's a very dishonest person @lincolnproject.bsky.social but at the same time I don't think Kash Patel in terms of believing that the law shouldn't be broken is the correct man for the job because he believes sometimes the law can be broken if you happen to be a Republican I think that's a fair

kevinkelly4.bsky.social•97 days ago

Assessment @lincolnproject.bsky.social that Kash Patel would even agree with .I mean the only good thing about his nomination is that it proves trumps racist rhetoric is actually just that rhetoric although it's dangerous rhetoric and has caused a lot of fear and anxiety for people it's caused a

kevinkelly4.bsky.social•97 days ago

Dangerous environment which is wrong @lincolnproject.bsky.social race should be a issue for nobody especially Miller if he can be forgiven then he should do the same for people who actually haven't done anything at all in comparison and a final thought fox news fox news as a Israeli I don't want fox

Timothy Snyder’s take is very apropos as well:

Regarding Trump’s many pending yet questionable cabinet picks which I’ll put in terms of eggs, if they’re all cracked when you’re looking at them at the grocery store, don’t buy them.

upperstrength.bsky.social•96 days ago

💙

antilusional.bsky.social•97 days ago

Trump stole the attention.

west-is-west.bsky.social•97 days ago

Biden should appoint Hunter to a cabinet post, not merely pardon him.

That’s my take, given Trump’s precedent.

But then I realized Hunter’s tax/gun issues aren’t sufficient qualifications - the Trump rule for cabinet positions requires a history of sexual assault or outright treasonous conduct.

mi-flgirl.bsky.social•96 days ago

Can you please tell the democrats this is not a drill...they need to wake up. As a democrat I am appalled at their lack of fight attitude..Coming into this like it is normal..is not acceptable.Democrat forever. We need a fighter, driven to win the country back.

inquisitorprime.bsky.social•97 days ago

It strikes me as hilarious (in a sad way) that all the rage was to "drain the swamp" and people don't get that billionaires ARE the swamp. And the cronyism of rewarding donors and fellow felons is also the swamp.

chris-in-oakland.bsky.social•97 days ago

olympus-1.bsky.social•97 days ago

Just a quick clarification - it's not just America worrying about the Dear Leader's picks.

The rest of us worry about him, his peculiar behaviour, and the process by which America has put its economy and its international standing on the line.

ladiebluebelle.bsky.social•97 days ago

What went wrong with the 2024 presidential election?
*DT cheated
*misinformation
*media owned by billionaires
*Ignorant uneducated idiots
*Some men are complete pigs!

arnau-de-torroja.bsky.social•97 days ago

Please guys at the upper floors... Meaning guys with enough money or sway in public affairs...

Assume treason and a coup are unfolding before our eyes and get your act together. Stop worrying and talking madness and danger. It is happening. We need to stop this. Move!
