This is what oligarchy looks like. Its not about a government there for the people who they need it most, its about taking from the needy and giving it to those who are needless. The backwards thinking of how we got her as country should never be forgotten.

The trauma being inflicted on our federal workforce can’t be overstated. Putting people’s livelihoods, careers, and families at risk over Trumps need for loyalty to his ideology of mass lies and bigotry is not okay. It’s further evidence of the institutional indifference of the MAGA party.

A disgusting display of how oligarchs think they can treat people who represent our country. Not as human beings worthy dignity, but as subservient to their will at any moment of any day. No respect for boundaries or the lives of these people.

Tonight I’m emailing my congress people again. The fact that not 1 of them is holding events in our area is crazy. I don’t care if NJ is blue right now, it won’t be if they don’t start doing something about it.

This gets my vote for tweet/post of the year. This is a RED ALERT post. This is exactly why he’s doing it.

For me, this is a great daily challenge. Learning that in valuing me, I’m not devaluing anyone else, I’m letting go of the conditioning of the past. I’m learning to stand in the essence of who/what I’ve always been. An equally valued representation of creation.

Donald Trump promised to let Elon Musk self-police his conflicts of interest. The result? Those investigating his companies have been fired. Cases against his companies have been dismissed. The corrupt self-dealing is staggering.

Reminder Transgender people make up less than 1% of the American population, common sense would say the money is going else where.

Man he really called it

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

General CQ Brown is a patriot and hero. Firing him makes America less safe, but it will help bring about a Golden Age. For Putin.

Politicians think their power comes from money, not people.

You know that scene from Titanic where the parents are tucking their kids in while the room fills with water, accepting their ultimate fate. That’s where it feels Dems are in American politics.

got the kids out on the playset, music playing, laughing, dogs running. Freedom in spite of oligarchy is the real resistance.

My LCADC paper license came in the mail today. Nice.

She nails it! “The president is effectively sidelined while Elon Musk takes center stage,” Maddow pointed out. “The president, in contrast, appears to be weak and sort of beside the point while his campaign donor regularly upstages him and talks over him both in interviews and in the Oval Office.”

Per @cturnbull1968.bsky.social: “Dear DNC, if you don’t run political ads with Elon holding a chainsaw, combined with video of a chainsaw cutting Grandma’s social security benefits and healthcare, I’m going to file a suit against you for gross negligence.”

👇🇺🇸 #USA #Resist #removetheking A revolution is forming.

Trump praised Hitler and both Musk and Bannon are throwing Nazi salutes while the GOP destroys DEI and attacks minorities everywhere, but sure, GOP, tell us how your party is "not" built on racism and hate.

🤣🤦‍♂️

Illinois voters got it right. I admire this man. #Resist

“While in this moment of emergency we must fight to preserve the democracy we have, reform & rethinking will be needed to achieve the democracy we want for the future. The chaos, corruption & misery will be hard but every day more eyes will be opened to the truth” open.substack.com/pub/lucid/p/...

FUN FACT: maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority AND The resistance is the MAJORITY! We will defeat you as your only plan is destroying our country while lining your pockets. Keep flooding the zone. We’re watching & we will win!!

What I’ve been saying is what is about to happen. Bernie and AOC seem to be the first two to realize what is needed. Dem leadership is beholden to the oligarchs, Bernie confirms. 👇

Thousands Show Up For Bernie Sanders Fight Oligarchy Rally www.politicususa.com/p/thousands-...

Make it make sense! 🤦🏻‍♀️

$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.

Is there a live link anywhere for this? @sanders.senate.gov

DOGE technologists Edward Coristine—the 19-year-old known online as “Big Balls”—and Kyle Schutt are now listed as staff at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.

Winston Churchill was right: "Democracy is the worst form of government except for all those other forms that have been tried.” Too many Americans have fought and died defending democracy. We must stand with our European allies against the authoritarianism of Putin and Trump.

Legislation that I passed and was funded by Congress, Solar for All, could reduce electric bills for working class families by 80%. The Trump Admin is refusing to release the money in order to protect the profits of fossil fuel billionaires. Unacceptable. Release the funds NOW.

Someone knows what to do! #leadership #Resist ##ResistOligarchy

Strong statement by retired Rear Admiral Mike Smith, President of NSL4A: "National Security Leaders for America strongly condemns the removal of senior military officers without just cause. ... Removing experienced leaders with meritorious records weakens the force and emboldens America’s enemies."

If any of our former NATO or Five Eyes allies have intelligence data and assessments, which surely they must, about the background of the leader of their new strategic adversary, the United States, now is as good a time as any to release them, subject to protection of methods and sources, of course.

This is the reality that is going to impact so many of us who have children with disabilities 👇. Our kids are going to lose out and be directly harmed. Representatives who lose sight of what is best for the children of America have no business being representatives in America. We must #resist

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!

Hold strong Mr. President. The longer you hold out. The weaker Trump looks. This isn’t about a benefit to the American people, it’s about Trump enabling Putins war machine, as well as his attempts to draw money into his wealth fund. Money he plans to give his buddies and stop resources for families.

@support.bsky.team is there a function to sort your followers by who you follow back and then being able to multi select in follow back, not all follow?

So I just read through, a lot of your bios, dam. Nice. Some real genuinely beautiful people. Pretty incredible. 🤝
