Putinization of America

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

REPOST if you stand with AOC!

Last night @60minutes.bsky.social opened an otherwise superb segment on Germany’s approach to online hate speech by saying “in the U.S., most of what’s said on online [social media] platforms is protected by the First Amendment.” No.The First Amend protects us against GOVT infringements on speech.

I love BlueSky and appreciate the commitment to our country that all the posters have shown But who is posting to the folks that voted for Trump in the Midwest and South? They aren’t on BlueSky… How about billboards about the price of eggs? A phone tree to Rep voters?

@gallego.senate.gov really?! Stop voting for his nominees!

I’d like to see congressional leaders (D) take a stronger role. The Trump Musk team doesn’t play by the rules. Why do the Democrats? Rs play to win! The American people are the ones losing!

Now of all times Susan Collins picks to support Tulsi Gabbard, an unfit and dangerous nominee. Collins is the worst judge of character and ability I have ever witnessed. Everyone from Kavanaugh to Gabbard gets her ok. Maine- kick her out in 2026

Malcolm Kenyatta has the fire we desperately need in the Democratic Party. His voice is bold, his vision is clear, and his energy is unstoppable. Listen to him speak—let his words fill you with the power to rise up, organize, and fight like hell for our future. LFG! 🔥👏🏻 @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social

When we talk about tariffs on our neighbors, that will increase the cost of your blueberries and other food when you go to the grocery store. It will increase the cost of cars or impact the ability to afford new housing or home repairs.

I’m pessimistic as well, but wondering where the Democratic leaders with even a bit of charisma are and why they aren’t speaking out about Elon, immigration action, the cabinet picks, etc Where’s the leadership? Gretchen Whitmer? Gavin Newsom? Tim Walz? Josh Shapiro? The sounds of silence.

Having the richest man in the world be a wannabe Nazi with a sense of humor stuck in the 7th grade isn’t ideal, but having over 160,000 ordinary people encouraging his foolishness on Twitter hints at the real problem.

It would hardly be a new thought to say "we need to work on our critical thinking skills" but I do think it might be worth clarifying that the *point* of critical thinking skills is to be able to create your own meaning out of the things going on in the world.

I am excited to endorse Jocelyn Benson for Governor of Michigan. We share a passion for marathon running. Just as she has conquered the miles, I am confident she will tackle the challenges facing Michigan with the same determination and spirit she exhibits as Michigan's Secretary of State.

Trump’s government is a government of men, not of laws.

It’s a combination of inadequate news analysis and not enough promo when Biden did something good. People have short attention spans- need to tell them everything at least 3 times

Maybe, but other than being embarrassed by a couple of D women senators, he doesn’t care. He’s getting the job! Unfortunately the D contingent is very weak and can’t stop what’s happening.

here's today's post: "Pete Hegseth is a nasty piece of business" — scenes from a confirmation hearing. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

Please amplify this wonderful effort by @veronicabane.bsky.social to replenish libraries for kids in L.A. The loss of books is something that would likely fall into a crack without efforts like Veronica’s. #LAFires

Hits the nail on the head! The mystery is people who follow misogynistic uneducated men who obviously have no clue how to run anything and create this creed to make themselves feel important. They don’t respect women or children and treat them as possessions. And can’t understand anyone smarter.

The issue isn’t whether Universal Healthcare can work. The issue is how do we get from where we are to UH. It took Canada decades and it has a ton of limits we might not like. The point being we have to find a starting point that can grow it into what works here www.canada.ca/en/health-ca...

Ignore the noise! Pay attention to what they actually do.

They are taking back campaign promises faster than they made them.

Getting real enough for you MAGA?

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million. That is a lie. The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

“For my next attention seeking trick, I will have you concentrate on Greenland, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Panama Canal—instead of my absurdly unqualified cabinet picks or that I have no real plans to fix the border or bring down food prices. Look, America, a rabbit!”

Merrick Garland failed miserably in delivering justice for Trump’s numerous crimes. The absolute LEAST he can do is release Jack Smith’s report so the American people will learn the facts. Publishing the results of special counsel investigations is the norm — burying the truth would be indefensible.

A jury of 12 of his peers who heard all of the evidence and had the opportunity to hear his lawyers argue against it unanimously agreed that he was guilty. Prosecutors can't make that happen, nor can judges. That's our criminal justice system in action. The jurors found Trump guilty.
