Today is the National Day of Mourning for USA’s 39th President James (“Jimmy”) Earl Carter Jr. of Georgia. Carter’s legacy is one of decency; ethics; service in the military as a Lieutenant in the Navy, selfless acts around the world as a great humanitarian & in public office; fighting for equity!🇺🇸

Four years ago today, donald Trump Sr. launched a violent insurrection at our Capitol. We all watched it. A weak AG, donald’s co-conspirators, & GOP enablers have been fools, criminals, & cowards beyond measure. donald is now set re-assume office in violation of the Constitution. This is the truth.

In case anyone was wondering why the tinkle tape traitor woke up with a Panamanian bug up his ass seemingly out of the clear blue sky… This is why: Because he’s being investigated for tax evasion in Panama. Who’s shocked? Is anyone? Anyone at all? t.co/I1pt4guQd4

Twelve years ago today, we were rocked with the news of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting that left 26 dead and two other injured. Today, we remember them. Twenty-six families relive the horrific events of this day. My heart goes out to all affected by this senseless tragedy. #SandyHook

Joe Biden had zero obligation to sacrifice his son’s freedom to please the likes of the crew at the Bulwark

Musk grew up during apartheid, and was 23 when it ended, so he lived through that level of turbulence at a formative period in his life, growing up in an ultra white elitist (colonialist) family. I realize now that he’s maybe more dangerous than I ever imagined, if that’s even possible. RESIST!

Here’s a crazy idea. Let’s make sure the proposed new FBI Director can pass an FBI Background Check.

Repost and drop 💙 if you are Thankful of VP Kamala Harris

America just reelected a rapist and felon who is assembling a Cabinet of conspiratorial sociopaths and incompetent criminals, and too many Americans are like, “Let’s pretend this is normal.”

Kash Patel for FBI Director? Always knew it would be him. His hatred for the FBI, eagerness to abuse the system & the law, as well as being Trump’s ultimate bootlicker make him the perfect pick. Pair him with Pam Bondi, and you’ve got the dream team for an authoritarian regime.

I wish this were funny.

There’s not too much that’s truer than this.

I'm just here to say that, if you choose NOT to invite someone to your house for Thanksgiving because they voted for trump, don't let anyone shame you about it. It's YOUR fucking house. You're entitled to some peace and quiet. How you make peace with 2024 is your business, PERIOD.

Reminder

Do not obey in advance. PASS IT ON.

Re Pam Bondi and the $25,000 she reportedly solicited from Trump. Even assuming there was no quid pro quo, who takes $$$ sent by a person under investigation or immediately after you close an investigation into that person? What does that say about ethics and judgment?

All is fair in love and war. We are at war. Joe Biden, a decent human and lifelong public servant, has powers no previous president ever had, thanks to the SCOTUS. I pray he uses them vigorously to defend our system and our integrity as a nation.

Someone should tell Matt Gaetz that a "recess appointment" would have nothing to do with elementary schools

Folks: we hate doing these posts, but now is the time to rebuild our pro-democracy community right here on BlueSky. No more leaving our future in the hands of Elon Musk. If you are able, please follow, repost this, and let your followers know we are here. Let's do this!

Well, this gets it exactly right, doesn’t it?
