We’ve seen it over & over: MAGA Republicans can’t be trusted to do what’s right. So I will not embrace them nor welcome them right now. I will watch them like a hawk & look for a flicker of change toward embracing their fellow citizens. If I see it I MAY THINK about engaging w/them. It’s up to them.

From the newspaper, that helped get the orange turd elected… 😒

I suspect it’s not shocked and wounded, its watching things to play out to work out where things are headed.

Ruth Ben-Ghiat,”This is a coup. We need a group of elected Democratic authorities to step out , name it and tell the American people what is going on, because it was the Treasury Secretary who let Musk in.” @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov THAT’S YOU!

Wounded? Maybe? Stunned? No. Bitter? Angry? Yes.

But this is a good message. We have to get in the fight.

bocksam.bsky.social•19 days ago

If they take away SS and medicare there won't be anything for those who receive it to fight back with. Speak nothing of Medicaide. Lots of elderly suicides

sugarmama2025.bsky.social•19 days ago

Tske back the Whitehouse. The proudboys and oath keepers did it.and nobody cared.

misstorchie.bsky.social•19 days ago

STOP TELLING US TO FIGHT BACK!

TELL US HOW TO DO IT!

GIVE US A PLAN!

Congress, gird your loins, and stand your ground...listen to earth, watch the sky...when the eagle flies, follow it...or don't...whatever will stop you from thinking duality is truth. Please....

talkingforfree.bsky.social•19 days ago

We need leadership with guts, determination, intelligence, integrity and leadership skills.

captivejinn.bsky.social•19 days ago

Integrity. Young integrity if we can get it. But not white supremacy.

lesliealarson.bsky.social•19 days ago

And clear and concise messaging!

talkingforfree.bsky.social•19 days ago

You are absolutely right!

fijit1.bsky.social•19 days ago

Yeah, we can stop talking about outrage and do something about it. DC Dems are starting to show leadership; that's a good sign. The information I want people to be posting is about what they are doing, not what they are feeling. Keep your eyes and ears open for peaceful outdoor activities.

I’ve seen this coming for years, and trying ton get people to hear it is maddening. Dems are just playing from the wrong playbook, in my opinion.

jeepk.bsky.social•19 days ago

Exactly. I call and email my maga senators every day and look for ways that I can fight back snd I'm a 68 year retired school teacher.

I like you Jack. But here's something ..I guess I don't know "Jack"
Do you mean fight like NYT did during elections?
We fight hard and we don't use traitorous BS MSM. They helped get that MF elected.
And I'm damn tired of hearing rants about everything & everybody instead of leadership solutions.

sobertileguy.bsky.social•19 days ago

Stop worrying about what the response from Trump is going to be for rebellion. Everything he does is going to be terrible no matter what we do. Let’s not choose fear. I certainly refuse to live that way.

Follow Black folks lead. We've been battling against this type of BS for 400 years. Imagine what could be accomplished if others joined us in numbers significant enough to ensure the movement couldn't be dismissed because it's just us. Whatever happens, rest assured, we will rise or fall together.

You're damn right it is.

Step 1 energize our leaders. Step 2? They might be sitting that one out

clayster1971.bsky.social•19 days ago

There are no guardrails that will stop Humpty Trumpy. We must start with stopping donations to the DNC. They are as much as the problem. We need to find a way of not paying taxes. Trump’s plan will not work without our taxes. Surely someone can figure a way to have “No Taxes if No Representation!”
