And for the third straight day, the rest of the legacy media did nothing to stand up for the First Amendment. No boycott, no walkout, nothing but business as usual.
Then, they wonder why people are canceling subscriptions and turning off their TV's while independent news outlets are thriving.

For a third straight day, an AP reporter was blocked from attending an Oval Office event, I'm told.

The bottom line is - they are cowards.
I’d sign back up again for the WA.Post, NY Times and the LA Times…
Not just for those that agree with you, but for all Americans.
Plan, communicate, act.

Where oligarchs pull strings, make the truth not grow.
You've bought the Washington Post, the LA Times too,
All to curry favor with Trump, in this media coup.

No more far left or far right, we need the strong middle to lead the way. No political party, no BS chants.
Good has no party affiliation.
love it that Mark Cuban is getting involved he's awesome
The fascist propagandist media will not.
1/2
2/2
I don't want him to do anything that Fox News and the GOP generally can use against him (somehow)
He's our future leader in all of this, and I don't want anything to damage him.
Senate is good.
They have already turned AOC and Elizabeth Warren, Hillary and others into poison.
Schedule it right after Lyin' Leavitt spews nonsense from behind her oversized cross, like the rebuttal to the SOTU.
I agree with you 100%, but unfortunately they're never gonna do such a thing.
She is EXACTLY what you are asking for, albeit written instead of podcast
But, then again, it would just be more of a disaster every day.
Thank you for your knowledge of current & historical events. You make me calmer than most of the reporters on TV/Cable, with the exception of Lawrence O'Donnell.
Love both of you!
I totally understand how good Pete is at this....
I'm just so worried about what right-wing media would do to him. We can't have him "damaged"
it really is something the Dems must do ASAP
and not just for politics, for actual science, health info etc.
Dems need a shadow government!!!
If the strategy of the Dems is to show how bad things get under the Republicans than we are all in a world of trouble.
But then why would Biden accomplish all he did, knowing it would be destroyed when Trump got in?
Dems are beginning daily briefings on Capitol Hill, to inform and counter DISinfo (fact check the WH).
Pete Buttigeig will receive $1.9M over next 5 months to conduct briefings.
That covers him and his staff.
lol
@jimacosta.bsky.social
@petebuttigieg.bsky.social
This would be brilliant. Start with daily briefing from the hill and the White House, start a show with opponents, and have intelligent debate
A spokesperson is something else.
If you're a bit of an insomniac, record onto audio one of his speeches and have it playing softly in the background beside your bed. It would be interesting in finding out how long it is before you're asleep.
Please have Mayor Pete communicate to the American people every day!!!!!
He’s the one that should lead the uprising
No Democrats are leading it. They missed to boat.
If Biden had done a monthly (or bi-monthlu) "fireside chat," combined with a DNC, 50 state grassroots information/action network, the Dems would likely have won.

I mean the silence, aside from some of the younger Dems, speaks volumes.
But Vance "Europe is leaving its values" yesterday, is a perfect oppprtunity to address the bullshit.
So, it must be excruciating to suffer Dems' silence on all this.
5000 pages that have “Unfuck This”on repeat.
Never have any of these 'humbled' GOP put the blame for Trump where it belongs
Campaign later.
They could have stopped Trump from taking office after he confessed to hacking election.
They could have disrupted sham confirmations.
They could have been screaming from the rooftops or marching in the streets today.
Time after time, Democrats failed.
And where are they now?
At home editing a strongly written letter while the nation is destroyed law by law, department by department, brick by brick?
#FAFO is REAL
@petebuttigieg.bsky.social
Nothing? No mumbo jumbo?
Denials? Excuses? A bigger plan?
Thank you for concern, time & attention to this matter?
It doesn't fit their agenda.
of Pete might be a priority to the #BlueMagaCult but it is secondary to fighting Fascism....to me. #MetaPete 🤷♂️ #JustSaying 🤔
We still need you!!
It’s a. Great idea. I will contact my representatives and suggest it.
Contact yours.
#WeNeedPete
Why are the good people so bad at being good??? And the bad people to good at being bad?

Republicans only hear about democrats from other republicans. It’s a problem.

This!!!! Yes!!!! Do it!!!!
He would nail that role
I think we need a shadow government, not a primary in 2028. Someone needs the authority to speak for the Democratic Party.
We don’t need someone to appeal to college-educated Democrats, like most of the people here.

Buy ads and volunteer for interviews on FOX.
Gear the social media messages to Republicans.
Mail flyers to red states with website and QR code that sends them to an easy-to-comprehend guide to what is happening.
Start postcard campaigns to red states.
If I've made mistakes I'm new to Bluesky

@dncstaffunion.bsky.social
@housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.org
Make this happen.
Take back the narrative.
May I suggest to @petebuttigieg.bsky.social to hire you if that happens?
I've followed you for 8 years and I usually say "Damn straight" after most of your "Tweets" now posts. The times I didn't were when you were attacking Merrick Garland...I was wrong, you were spot on.
👏👏👏 please ❤️
Yes!This is a fabulous idea!Republicans have been very vocal and used any and all platforms to reach people.Democrats have been failing in this area.They need to be out there all the time, being loud and clear with the message.Repeat over and over until you're truly heard
I have been thinking about that for a while now. This idea is excellent if we make sure to repeatedly tell it to all & sundry.
Feel free to call them bozos while you do it.

Everytime I hear them talk I think it's "Opposite Day."
Plus, when they start pointing 👉fingers there's 3 more pointing back👈at them
I agree the GOP is spineless, though.
I love the idea, too.
We don’t need to fact check, debate, or get into policy weeds.
This would be great.
Can someone please do something?
THAT'S LEADERSHIP.
THEY'VE FAILED!!
Failure FAILURE at every turn.
NEVER.

They serve their own interests. They care more about their income being steady than being real journalist.
The ones with privilege leave behind the ones without. America has been doing it for years.
Independents are not .
That is why they are threatened by people like you, Ground News and Meidas Touch .
Hell knows, trump does it.
https://youtu.be/L8IYPnnsYJw?si=HTHRQUCXwYaxC7QA
They have no balls anymore
conferences? I get the position journalists are in but if Putin/Musk have their way…
The press corps doesn’t care about journalism. They have what they want.
For the record, I recall with clarity Acosta being booted by Trump. At that moment another journalist did object. Now? Crickets.
2025: Wired ❗️and Rolling Stone ⁉️
Consumers drive the economy.
Show them who’s boss.
You're so blocked 🤬
Legacy media should have treated Fox with the disgust and disrespect it deserves from day one.
It is not business as usual ❗️❗️

Is one
I follow Marc Elias who is an attorney who fights and wins in voting and democracy cases.
Also, I follow ‘Angry Staffer’ and medias touch.
None play to hype.
I also watch Canadian news and the BBC, plus Lawerence O’Donnell on msnbc.
I stick with Lawerence because, IMHO, he was the only one who really stuck it to the orange slime stain and still does.
I do love Nicole and Rachael…but Chris sometimes jacks up my anxiety too much.
They still think the tariffs are a bluff!
Make the story about the boycott.
Let FoxNews & Breibart be in there alone, they will look like the bootlickers & breathless sycophants that they are.
US media is so desperate for Trump because he’s unpredictable and makes for exciting updates.
They have sold their integrity for likes.
Remember:
"First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist ...
...
... Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me”
just for a start
AND THE REST OF MEDIA didn't do shit about it
All for ratings and money.

It won't be too long before #trump throws anyone that asks any questions he doesn't like out of the press room entirely
This is something else #hitler did
The Corporate Controlled Conservative Press is ALL IN FOR TRUMP!
