Absolutely! 🇺🇦🌻🇺🇦

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

Musk has tweeted more than 220 times in last 24 hrs. That's not counting the replies.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Amen to that.

Trump pardoned the sentence of arguably the single biggest drug trafficker in American history on his second day in office!

Trump says Ukraine must hold new elections if it wants a seat at the negotiating table. Odd how Trump is not demanding Russia hold a democratic election for long-time dictator Putin to have a seat at the negotiating table.

Tom Nichols : “Self-absorption is common these days, but Musk embodies a particular brand of narcissism found among certain kinds of techno-plutocrats who assume that their wealth is evidence of competence in almost any field. “

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

Donald Trump lying about Ukraine starting the war with Russia makes me ashamed to be an American. I have done a 2 man patrol at night through Fallujah to extract and intubated COVID patients long before a vaccine. I've killed people for America and I've saved people for America. I am ashamed.

They love it. They love the suffering. Elon tells them to be angry.

UPDATE: Eric Adams has destroyed his own future—including his opportunity and ability to lead the city of New York. Adams is in a state of crisis of his own making. The political damage has been done, and the consequences of his criminality still loom. Adams’ quid pro quo with Trump…

The Barrage of Trump’s Awful Ideas Is Doing Exactly What It’s Supposed To Flooding us with repugnant ideas is Dictator 101. They plunge us into anxiety making thinking difficult. That kind of anxiety is key to totalitarian control. Don't Fall For The Con! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/15/o...

Democrat Attorneys General are united in fighting FOTUS’s unconstitutional orders. Here’s the list of AGs. Most are here on Bluesky. See thread. We should all be following these Democrat AGs and supporting them. Let’s ask the missing ones to join is on Bsky #Voices4Victory dems.ag/meet-the-att...

Here's my action of the day for anyone in Texas. These are the agencies that the Commerce Committee, headed by your very own Teddy Cancun, oversees. He's the guy w/oversight authority over Sean Duffy's cuts to FAA (and failures to respond to plane crashes). Think of creative ways to lobby him!

Not very DOGE to burn all that fuel flying over Daytona. Wasting taxpayer dollars. #daytona500

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

The state department’s procurement forecast for 2025, which details purchases the agency expects to make, includes $400 million for armored Tesla vehicles. Excuse me, but isn’t this a huge conflict of interest, not to mention an unnecessary expenditure?! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/u...?
