AT&T's position as the second-largest US carrier is shaken, with T-Mobile now taking over. wccftech.com/despite-the-...

Matt Gaetz belongs behind bars.

Donald Trump’s election provides a useful occasion to examine the difference between what rich people want and what constitutes a thriving economy.

Trump isn't even in office yet and he is crashing the Markets.

Earth just experienced its second-warmest November on record — second only to 2023 — making it all but certain that 2024 will end as the hottest year ever measured, according to a report Monday by European climate service Copernicus.

MAGA trolls on every platform flooded my comments with outrage that I’m raising my daughter to believe in compassion, critical thinking, and respect for diversity. They can attack me all they want—it won’t stop me from fighting for her future. If you’ve got my back, smash the RT button and follow!

I’m a former FBI agent. Kash Patel’s problems go beyond his incompetence. His record shows no devotion to the Constitution, but blind allegiance to Trump. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Pete Hegseth, Trump’s choice to lead the Defense Department, faces brutal new allegations A new report characterizes Pete Hegseth as a predatory racist with a substance abuse problem who badly mismanaged the only two organizations he ever led. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

The clown show gets extra clownish.

THREAD: On tomorrow's new episode of the Jack podcast, I discuss my concern over whether Merrick Garland will release Jack Smith's report. I hope you'll listen to the podcast, but I also want to put this out on Bluesky. 1/

Putting people in charge of departments they want to destroy is kind of the unwritten subtext of project 2025

Let's go A&M

"the Disinformation Machine...facilitates the abuse of power by distracting attention away from actual political conspiracies, the ongoing abuses and machinations of corrupt, powerful people..." @brianklaas.bsky.social on what Musk has wrought. Terrifying. 1/2

Visiting beautiful Oregon to get right before the turkey massacre.

I'm not freaked out about this, because Trump never gets anything accomplished

This will mean higher gas prices, higher alcohol prices, higher food prices, higher building prices, higher car prices, higher pharmaceutical prices, etc. Trump is about to teach Americans who *actually* pays for tariffs (the consumers do).

Anyone, any entity, anywhere in the world can just pay him any amount (for anything he promises in return), and there's no disclosure of the payments, no oversight of any of it by anyone, and of course no potential bribery prosecution (of him) because... immune. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/24/u...

Elon Musk might try to buying MSNBC. But I can promise you that he'll never buy @democracydocket.com. It will always be fearlessly independent and unapologetic pro-democracy. It will never obey. Consider supporting it by becoming a premium member. www.democracydocket.com/member-me/

I’ll bet you 20 bucks that Bluesky will have more users than Twitter within the next 12 months. That’s crazy — but a GOOD crazy! 😄

I’m pretty sure this is not legal. Congressmen can’t trade and make money on their job. Ethics maybe having to take a look

U.S. prosecutors on Monday asked a U.S. judge to drop the criminal case accusing President-elect Donald Trump of seeking to overturn his 2020 election defeat, citing his impending return to the presidency following his successful 2024 campaign.

Republicans choose the Elephant for their mascot because the Elephants have the biggest assholes on the planet. #Justsayin

For the record, I hate carry-on luggage people. Just check your shit. I especially hate little old ladies with their fucking life in their 2.5 carry one! #lifeprobs

@cnn.com is def not covering it

PLEASE REMEMBER: trump's win percentage is shaping up to be the third SMALLEST in history. He does NOT have a mandate, no matter what he says. That means we push back against every single batshit crazy policy he tries to pass. EVERYTHING. Mandate my ass.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget

It's wonderful to see all the people on Bluesky that I used to follow on LeonsXitter. They just disappeared but now they are all back. #Xsucks

Trump is telling us that he’s going to fire hundreds of thousands, deport tens of millions, kick tens of millions off their healthcare & cut hundreds of millions in social programs and Ma and Pa MAGA STILL believe all of this shit is going to help them in some fucking way. Narrator: it’s not.

BREAKING: Biden has been asked to pick Jack Smith for the federal court so Trump can't fire him. Special Counsel Jack Smith can't be fired by Trump if he becomes a federal Judge. DO IT JOE!!

Can this please be the end of Gaetz?

"They think it's a joke. They are embarrassed."

www.planetcritical.com/p/cyber-secu... In Arizona Trump’s percentage of bullet ballots totaled 7.2%. In Nevada 5.5%. In comparison, bullet ballots for Trump in Oregon, Utah and Idaho—the 3 states which border Arizona & Nevada, with equally fervent Trump voters—count for less than 0.05% in each state

The percentage of bullet ballots for Trump in swing states is significantly higher than in non-swing states, suggesting possible tampering. Cyber-security experts are urging for hand recounts in key precincts to verify the legitimacy of the ballots. www.planetcritical.com/p/cyber-secu...

I bet this dude has a squated Silverado. #CMAawards
