@chrismurphyct.bsky.social why are you not posting on here first ? You have some great things to say. You are trying some great things. Yet you post on X where 100pct of the replies are meaningless and hateful. It's not all roses here, but the engagement has depth and real convos happen

Wow…I had to double, triple check to make sure this tweet from Senator Smith was real. Rare to see a US Senator tweet like this. Not complaining, just surprising.

Well, here's an outrageous First Amendment violation in Mississippi, where a county chancellor (a judge) issued a restraining order requiring the Clarksdale Press Register to take down an editorial criticizing city officials. Here's an editorial response from @mississippitoday.org: bit.ly/3Qu5PW1

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

Spare us, Sen. Tillis. You gave us Putin's puppet and you are his puppet. So you are Putin's agent. Ukraine's blood will be on your hands. You are guilty. Your protests: empty. Thom Tillis: Putin is ‘the greatest threat to democracy in my lifetime’ www.newsobserver.com/news/politic...

The key point that was made in this clip is that it happened organically. We don’t come from the consultant class, we get zero legacy media hype, we don’t get invited on shows & don’t want to be on TV, no big money donors writing checks. It all happened one person at a time. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed. Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio. He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.

Chancellor Crystal Hines Martin of Hinds County, Mississippi has issued a prior restraint order so ludicrously unconstitutional it’s only consistent with deliberate misconduct or abject ignorance of the relevant law. Disgraceful and lawless. /1

If DOGE is making a simple math error here it is making simple errors elsewhere -- like firing mission critical employees and cutting life-saving programs. There is a reason why government sometimes moves slow, so it doesn't make stupid decisions www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/u...

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

A good moment to remember the Russia thing was always real. Trump's goal is to help Russia and Putin, always has been. He's trying to throw our democratic allies under the bus and America as well. Again, the Russia thing was always real.

One of the actions here is to support actions even if you’re skeptical that they’ll work. I feel that way about many of the rest on the list. Which is why I like this list. There isn’t a clear path now. Risk time on that which may fail. Really.

It's insane that Aisha needed to write this, & even more insane that this shameful nonsense in re: our closest ally & fellow NATO member hasn't been an immediate presidency-ending scandal for Trump. A party that tolerates this can never be trusted with 🇺🇸 national security again.

Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

Yes. But they are missing that much of this has to be performative. That’s what Trump is great at and Dems are awful at. You can’t just tell voters , you have to know how to sell voters. Trump gives sales pitches, Dems show charts. One goes viral. The other is ignored and forgotten
