The Secretary of Defense goes on tv to explain he is preparing to have the military break the law.

Jeffries: hey the GOP controls the government, absolutely nothing i can do, gonna work on my personal book tour Sanders: brb i am going to personally barnstorm strategic GOP house districts and try to peel off 2 votes so we can block Trump's cuts to Medicaid www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

Pay attention to the townhall meetings GOP reps are facing right now. People who voted for Trump are PISSED! (WE TRIED TO WARN THEM...)

Idiocracy was a documentary

MISSISSIPPI’s legislature being declared “not a public body” reminds us of how the Tennessee leg won’t tell us how much taxpayer money Speaker Sexton is blowing on troopers despite our FOIA request: “Not a governmental agency for the purposes of the public records act” 🤔

Those Jan. 6th insurrectionists who think Trump's pardon gives them a "get out of jail free" pass forever are finding out differently. At least a couple of prosecutors in Tennessee still have their testicles. www.mediaite.com/crime/doj-pr...

Man up, get off the phone, and make meaningful connections.

"Call your Representatives! Call your Senators!" Does anything think my call to Marsha fucking Blackburn is going to influence her vote on a Trump nominee? I might as well write it on toilet paper and flush it toward DC. It's as useless as "Thoughts and Prayers" after a school shooting.

Former 🇺🇸 ambassador to Russia 👇🏽

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

Every once in awhile I think about what the 9/11 terrorists hoped to accomplish and realize that they did

these guys are the biggest babies in the world

If you’re not confirmed by the Senate then you have no business meddling in the lives of MILLIONS of Americans We are suing DOGE for violating the constitution & illegally seizing power I’ll discuss tonight @ 8PM ET on @insidewithpsaki.msnbc.com 👇 statedemocracydefenders.org/fund/new-law...

Go ahead. Let the people see you for what you are.

The community note 🤌😘

“MaYbe shE’s goiNg to be in TroUble nOw” Maybe he can learn to read. The Constitution would be a good place to start

I'm looking to find the Phish community on Bluesky. May or may not have lost all my followers. Please RT to help me find the Phish community. 🙏

If your attitude to current events is "It doesn't affect me, so I don't care", don't expect me to give a shit when it DOES affect you. If you're cool with what's going on, just know that it's being noted by a lot of people with long memories. Karma often arrives to a standing ovation.

Scumbags and skanks. All of them.

Feel like a bit of a pollyanna that I thought at least one of these unqualified nominees wouldn't get through and yet here we are. Will be a bad four years, but the long term implications will be so severe. Devastating.

Dumbest country ever

I need a statement from Depeche Mode immediately

Sen Cassidy: “Black lives matter only if you count them”

🚨 BREAKING: Illinois Governor JB Pritzker says he’s going to rename Lake Michigan to “Lake Illinois.” EPIC TRUMP TROLL!!! 🤣

Ketchup On Walls Alert: HIGH

Watching the local news in east Tennessee is like watching a news reel from goddamn early nazi Europe. What a fucking disgusting place I live in.

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

“He’s unqualified, and I daresay that everybody here knows it.” We need more principled senators like Warnock.

Elected Democrats should pepper every single comment, remark, and speech with mentions of “President Musk” - and with nary a mention of Mango Magoo. Musk would be Mar-a-long-gone within a week.

That people now see the typical person Silicon Valley has produced through decades long juvenilizing and coddling of young men and the persistent sidelining of women is an important thing except it’s also too late. These toxic adult toddlers are grown and cloning more.

A lot of us seem nonchalant when democracy itself is being dismantled before our eyes, but lose our shit if someone tries to take away one of our internet toys. Hedge fund managers will swoop in and steal property for development after fires, but we're worried about looters taking flat screen TVs.

“Pretty Shady” — REPUBLICAN Rep. Todd Warner talks to Tennessee Conservative News about Speaker Sexton silencing anti-voucher Republicans: youtu.be/Nn25WilHUh0

yasss

Crockett: I am tired of the white tears. When you compare me to Marjorie Taylor Greene or me to Lauren Boebert, there is no comparison. So the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so, so much harder

Lmaooooooooooo

Well said, Pete Buttigieg

🔥 @jeffyarbro.bsky.social lays waste to the ‘Hold Harmless’ lie many Republicans told themselves as they passed @GovBillLee’s voucher scam today🤥 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DFeEUlr...

On our Instagram page, a commenter tells us their conversion story from being “school choice” voucher advocate — once they realized what (and who) was really behind it all 👇🏽 #LeesVoucherScam

On social media, several Navajo Nation tribal members say they have had their nationality questioned. The accounts are not verified but Navajos who live off the reservation say they are concerned about being swept up in raids by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
