Do you feel it? There is a seismic shift underway across the United States. The people are beginning to rise up. I’ve been covering Trump’s meltdown in real time, and what’s happening across America is nothing short of extraordinary.

Just like we shouldn’t be firing FAA employees when commercial airliners are flipping upside down.

I'm dumb. I can't figure out how to end world hunger. But I do promise that I will continue to change healthcare in this country and make it more affordable, possibly setting a path towards Universal Healthcare.

Infuriating! 😡 Don’t Cut My Medicaid! The majority of my son’s medical team are in Austin (1.5 hr drive), some in Houston (3 hrs), one in Dallas (5 hrs). Telehealth appts are needed & necessary! My son has extreme car anxiety, not to mention wear and tear on our car, gas! 🤬 And we’re not alone!

BREAKING: The USDA has confirmed five additional dairy herds in California have tested positive for the virus, raising the total to 732. Currently, 74% of the state's dairy herds are infected with H5N1.

Upon this response, JK burst into a million shards and a great wind scattered her unhappy soul beneath the arc of a newly formed rainbow.

Oof! Brian hit the nail on the head!

"It's almost impossible to believe he exists. It's as if you took everything that was bad about America, scraped it off the floor, put it in an old hot dog skin & taught it to make noises with its mouth" #PRESIDEMENTIA

I owe any sanity I have at this point to @hcrichardson.bsky.social If you’re not following, it’s time to start.

$200 million taxpayer dollars spent on “tell me I’m pretty” ads to stroke his own ego, while he fires people to “save money.” Sociopathic.

You know what’s beautiful about U.S.A., something those rich kids on their gold toilets, chauffeured to school in bulletproof SUVs, will never get? It’s the free spirit. That wild, stubborn, beautiful freedom that lets every one of us be who we are.

What’s wasteful is ordering feds to explain their jobs instead of letting them DO their jobs.

This hits hard.

Bluejay Shapes and shades...

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice. The result is demagoguery and corruption.

Republican state attorneys general in 17 states sued the EEOC in April challenging its rules on how to implement the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, a 2022 bipartisan law requiring employers to make “reasonable accommodations” for pregnant or postpartum employees. #MOMSky apnews.com/article/preg...

Unlike Twitter , @bsky.app has a public firehose that anyone can analyze. The numbers I posted aren’t from bluesky. They are from their party software. If you look at the post, it shows posts, follows, likes. All are real. That’s real transparency

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

Mine too. 😭

Can’t help but sob watching the would-be leader of our country at the NAACP Awards. Kamala, thank you for stepping up for what is right, for reminding us that we’re not necessarily fighting against something; we’re fighting FOR something. You’re the Forever President of MY heart 🫶

I posted this longer version on X #Emails2DOGE cc: [email protected]

A Trump supporter who was fired from the IRS, told NBC10 he didn’t see this coming from Trump: “I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason"

Make it make sense! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Congrats to @bsky.app and all the users and team that make it unique ! 32m users is real !

He nails it.

Posted by @rothschildmd.bsky.social on another platform: “The entire federal government now apparently reports to Elon Musk, who is not the president, doesn't run DOGE according to Trump administration court filings, has no authority to remove federal employees, and tweets all day.”

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

Imagine my surprise when Babymama #4 showed up looking for her loot from the Ketamine King.

Says the guy who won't even respond to the mothers of his own children

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.
