Kash Patel is dangerous & unqualified to be the Director of the FBI. Use @@standupamerica.bsky.social’s tool and urge your senators to reject his confirmation: act.standupamerica.com/letters/lett...

Happy #caturday, let’s make it a fun one!

The pain of what could/should have been still cuts like a swords edge! We got robbed! Twice!

Once again, the courts largely rejected GOP attacks on our election systems. As imperfect as they are, at a time when Republics control the presidency and both chambers of Congress, the courts will remain the most powerful tool to prevent Trump from undermining our democracy and rule of law.

You know what's scarier than the Pentagon having a secret drone program? A blackout drunk in charge of the Pentagon having a drone program.

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

During the campaign, Trump promised tariffs would help America -- now he's admitting they'll hurt the US economy in the short run During the campaign, Trump said he would lower grocery costs -- now he's admitting that lowering those prices would be "very hard" IT WAS ALL A CON

Election fraud and caravans. Disappeared like farts in the wind, didn’t they?

Finally getting the attention this topic deserves! It’s so obvious.

Posted this at the old place, but thought folks on @bsky.app might like to know I finally met my "mother".

Yaaaayyy!! Bluesky just hit 25 MILLION users!! 🎉 🥳 🎊 bsky-users.theo.io

Sad day for voters in North Carolina, the Republicans have voted to override Gov Coopers veto on SB382 that strips power from the incoming Governor, AG and Superintendent of Education. This is not how Democracy is supposed to work and the Republicans know this but they’re drunk on powers Shameful!

For people who saw the clip of me advocating for a new opposition movement and are asking for more info, here is the piece I wrote laying it out. I hope you read, share and act. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/buil...

Duty to Warn: More than 75 Nobel Prize winners have signed a letter imploring senators NOT to confirm RFK Jr., Trump’s highly controversial pick to lead the Department of Health and Human Services. Warning that Kennedy is an existential threat to “important and highly respected institutions and…

Sad but true

Marc Elias wins so often that we need to make sure we don't lose sight of the importance of each of these victories. This is massive news!

Essential. Endangered. Extremely beautiful. #SaveRedWolves

Senator Murphy nails it.

💯

The economy wasn't broken. Soon, it's going to be. Way to vote against prosperity. Super job, America.

This 👇🏽 💯

If you are waiting for the corporate media to finally do the right thing when it comes to covering Trump please contact me. I have a unicorn I'm looking to sell. You will love it 😀

The resistance after 2016 was a success. But we need something bigger and more durable this time. We need an opposition built for the long term. We need to stop being tired and ignore the cynics. I can promise you, my team and I will be in the fight. If we all do our part we will win!

Biden and Harris kicked some major ass. And now Trump‘s gonna fuck it all up

Biden: "By all accounts, the incoming administration is determined to return the country to another round of trickle-down economics & tax cuts for the wealthy ... on top of that, he seems determined to impose steep universal tariffs ... I believe this approach is a major mistake"

If we all find 100 posts to like every day, engagement and good will on @bsky.app grows exponentially. Is it worth a few minutes to make the platform stronger ?

How timely. In 43 days RFK Jr. will be able to use his vast experience as a virologist to help sort this out. www.forbes.com/sites/davewe...

Schiff: "This is not just about retribution against those of us on the January 6 Committee. This is about sending a message that nobody better hold him to account in his second term ... he is intent on trying to break down these checks and balances in our system."

NEW: "After the general election, North Carolina’s government finds itself in a partisan power struggle that may not bode well for the future of voting rights in the battleground state." www.democracydocket.com/analysis/nor...

Good morning!

Trump will be bribed tens of millions more to have his DoJ stop this case and then he will claim he saved TikTok. Just a heads up.

What’s with all the “alpha males” looking to men like Tucker and Rogan for what to believe and for other male approval? Now they all look act and believe the same. Sounds kind of Beta to me actually

Haha I can relate!

When your MAGA uncle wonders why Trump is threatening tariffs and raising the prices of everything, after he repeatedly promised to do the opposite, look him straight in the eye and gently whisper: "It was never about you...and now he doesn't need you anymore"

Inconceivable that this person would lead the Department of Defense. "I’ve seen him drunk so many times. I’ve seen him dragged away not a few times but multiple times." Trump transition team's skipping FBI background checks is going to bite them. www.newyorker.com/news/news-de...

When I wrote this in July, some said I was being alarmist. Unfortunately, now I look prescient. "Project 2025 is premised on contempt for constitutional norms and the rule of law. It seeks to reshape American government, law and society for a generation." www.democracydocket.com/opinion/how-...

This is huge. The EFJ represents over 295,000 journalists in 44 countries 👇 www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/media/e...

Why is ‘radical leftist’ used as an insult? 😂 It’s radical to want people to have healthcare? Better to be a radical leftist than a radical fascist.
