Well then, I'm guessing you're not saved. I should have known when you said you didn't speak in tongues, you hadn't been baptized, or that your salvation could be revoked. So many false prophets out there...

I thought they were all self-made rugged individualists who didn’t rely on socialism.

The saddest part for me, is all the people enabling this chaos, this hate, these horrible policies. All because they are greedy for something for themselves.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

"Musk forced the FAA head to resign because he 'over-regulated' air safety requirements. At the time of the Potomac plane crash Trump had not replaced the FAA Administrator." www.rawstory.com/washington-p...

I posted something sincere to focus on the grieving families and send peace and strength during an extremely difficult time and the amount of grief I am getting from that is exhausting,,, people lost their lives and I just want to respect and send love to all the victims and friends and family.

Some good news

The biggest mistake salespeople make is they keep on talking after they have closed the deal. It doesn't take long for buyers remorse to set in.

data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and other federal agencies show the vast majority of fentanyl comes through legal ports of entry. And the people bringing it into the country are native born Americans.

The men we have invited to run our country, who bluster and swagger and bully, are actually small and frightened people who are terrified of women, rainbows and brown skin.

It would be fantastic if major federal institutions would acknowledge that the executive branch cannot legally unilaterally cancel or redistribute congressionally appropriated funding on ideological grounds and thus they have no legal obligation to comply with such directives

Not today, Satan

I’m so grateful to be sworn in for a second term in Texas 30! Thank you to the nearly 1,000 friends, family, constituents, and elected officials who joined me for Tuesday’s swearing-in. I’m honored by your support and will keep fighting for Texas 30.

OK, but... #ItsTrumpsFault

If you're not straight & white, be prepared to fight.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.

NEW: At least 6 senior FBI officials have been ordered to resign or be fired by Monday. They include those that oversee cyber, national security and criminal investigations. www.cnn.com/2025/01/30/p...

Kiah was set to join our faculty at Howard Law School in the Fall. She was a dedicated, brilliant civil rights lawyer poised to make a powerful difference in our world. Our hearts are broken & we pray for her family & friends. www.kwch.com/2025/01/30/c...

All these cuts ✂️ to dismantle safety so where's the money going???????????????? REMEMBER OLD MAN FELON SAID CUTS TO YUR SERVICES TO GIVE IT TO THE WEALTHIEST !!!!!!

Blame Joe & DEI

Block of the Day :

I’m sad to learn that my law school classmate, Kiah Duggins, died in the DC plane crash last night. Kiah was an exceptionally talented civil rights lawyer and aspiring legal scholar. I hope you’ll read about her work and the causes she cared about, some of which I’ll 🧵 below. What an immense loss

This press conference on the DC crash is an embarrassment. Just a lot of rambling.

Let’s gut the aviation safety committee and freeze hiring for TSA. What’s the worst that could happen, right? Idiots blaming a tragic plane crash on DEI.

There should be a clause in the constitution that allows for snap elections to remove "potential" tyrants if they are a danger to society. Time to contact all of Congress and force their hand.

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone here at Bluesky for the follows and the conversations and the constructive, substantive interaction. It's a great forum, a great resource for circulating and talking about the news, and -- most of all -- a pleasure. I'm grateful!
