Kash Patel was confirmed as the FBI Director, which completes Trump's handover of America to Putin. As a child who practiced bomb drills in school in case Russia attacked us during the Cold War, this sickens me. #ProudBlue #PutinsPuppet #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

The opposite of "woke" is "sadist" - someone who gets pleasure from the pain of others.

What's being destroyed in a matter of weeks will take decades to recreate, and some of it never will be. I'm thinking more and more lately that the American Century is over, and the Chinese Century is at hand.

I was over in Zuckerburg a little bit ago. There was a post about the Gulf of Someplace and using desired pronouns. I announced the comments section was a great source of people to block. They lost their minds. They're lucky they aren't here. They'd be so lonely.

Use where appropriate.

The universe speaks in mysterious ways.

Monday morning the Treasury will be empty except for a note: "Dinner was delicious. XOXOXO Elon"

Let's go "dAy tOoK yUr jOb" Republicans. Get out there. Put up or shut up. 🤨

Under GOP rules, Trump owns every bad thing that happens during his term. They made this world, we just live in it.

All the people who were firefighting experts last week are now NTSB Air Disaster Investigators.

Ick.

If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.

Meta is renewing its threats against employees, telling them today that they will hunt for leakers and tolerate zero leaks. Want to know how that is going? Three Meta employees who I’ve never spoken to before just cold messaged/emailed me offering me to be sources.

This was posted yesterday morning before the DCA crash. Prescient.

That may be, but some of us have to be sober to keep things running.

The Valley Report is coming back 2025

Sorry, Atlantic. I'm a decades-long subscriber, but I'm not buying it. There's no way that memo went out without Trump's at least implicit blessing. Then it blew up in their faces, so he threw OMB under the bus. C'mon, we've seen this before. Please don't you become truckling tools, too.

One of my fourth graders asked a friend if he and his family wanted to live at his house since they are scared of the cold men coming to their house. The cold men are ICE. Kids may not understand it all right now, but they are listening.

We say that people don't notice constitutional regime collapse because it comes on too slowly but I'm not sure how much faster it could be happening; we are literally at concentration camps on day 9.

288 reposts was the most here on BlueSky. I bet they were blocked more than that.

TIM KAINE on the Senate floor warning federal employees not to take the buyout offer. "The President has no authority to make that offer. There's no budget line item to pay people who are not showing up for work...If you accept that offer and resign, he'll stiff you..."

My personal take is that he didn't want to have to defend the indefensible in court. apnews.com/article/dona...

I saw a post saying that ICE is pausing its tip line, so I decided to call myself to verify. The recorded voicemail said they are not currently accepting immigration status tips. Good job, friends.

We're finally dismantling the federal government! Sure hope it doesn't serve essential functions that I've taken for granted my whole life

I am so tired of finding out when I was not the one who fucked around.
