Has the Administration said anything about this?

Every day an “adventure.”

I’ve shared pictures and snippets, but here’s the more complete summary of my #handsoff #50501 experience.

I feel like when all the experts in all the fields regardless of party affiliation are sounding the alarm, people would pay attention. But no. Because the only freedom that is valued here now is the freedom to hate.

Trump just said that America soon will be the most economically dominant country in the world. The thing many people miss in this is that the country being rich doesn’t mean that the inhabitants of the country are. 🤦🏼‍♀️

How TF do you talk about the Underground Railroad and not talk about Harriet Tubman? Who but a White Supremacist would think this is ok???

As I revisit yesterday’s #handsoffboston #50501 protest by flipping through my pics, I’m thinking of the sentiment on the sign in the foreground, the MLK statue in the background, and his words “injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” Justice: under assault. Do the work.

Someone get those folks @bostonglobe.com an abacus. 30K? Did someone get tired of counting?

@facethenation.bsky.social should be required watching. #MargaretBrennan asks questions, people (try to) answer, we get to draw our own conclusions. That’s #democracy in action.

Tip of the iceberg.

Can’t stop won’t stop #handsoffboston

On a day called #LiberationDay, why do I find myself reaching for a Pepto Bismol, Imodium, charcoal pill cocktail?

You’re under no obligation to afford shitty performances in a shitty production. And yes, you can walk out.

I just got a drunk text that said “meet me at our spot.” Probs Pete Hegseth.

I think she’s right. No “war plans” war discussed. However, actual war plans, no quotes needed, were. 🤦🏼‍♀️

“Denmark has to have us have Greenland.” —🤡 That’s as politically sound of an explanation as you can get theses days.

Recommended reading for the entire Trump Administration. #ExtremeOwnership

Hypocrite much? (Yeah I’m using it as a verb now.)

Pete Hegseth: Nobody’s texting war plans. Everyone who wasn’t on the group chat: 👀 Note to President Trump: This is a national security calamity, not a witch hunt.

He cleans up nice

Can the people who actually have the means to resist authoritarianism please resist? (Think Columbia University here, for one example.)

Hear, Hear! @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social and @jvl.bsky.social lay out the hypocrisy, stupidity, and criminality:

Someone’s lying and it’s an easy path to the bottom of it.

Is this Pete Hegseth fuckup (Pete Buttegieg’s word not mine) meant to distract us from something worse?

Why does Pete Hegseth still have a job? Asking for myself.

I’m being as serious as I can be. This one is for the Trump supporters out there: please list specific reasons you think this Administration is doing a good job.

The President who is a dysfluent reader with a complete lack of prosody is the one dismantling the Department of Education. The hits keep coming.

I need to forget so I took myself to Florida.

You can call her Ms. McBride if you can call her Miss Jackson. It’s that easy. And anything else is just…nasty. #sarahmcbride

JUST NOW: Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi set the record straight on Social Security. Everyone needs to hear this.

Tessler. 🤣🤣🤣 (And you all thought Bostonians adding a wayward “r” sound to the end of words was as bad as it could get.)

Weekly roundup. What I’m reading, watching, cooking, drinking, and thinking…

This: “We can’t just be against something. We have to be for something.” (Watching Meet the Press, and @slotkin.senate.gov (D-MI) made my day.)

“The media lies” says the people who get their info from the media (Fox News) and memes. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Just me or is DOGE bringing entirely new meaning to “covfefe”?

What do we make of people who collect social security AND call it a Ponzi scheme?

January Littlejohn is just jealous because she’s stuck with the name “January Littlejohn.”

Thank you God for the bag of Trader Joe’s Horseradish & Chive potato chips I just found in the pantry.

I need another drink. BRB.

What a lying sack of sickly orange diarrhea.

So this is just one big hate speech so far, right? Or am I missing something?

What is this merit-based bullshit? Look at his cabinet.

Well, on the plus side, the joint address means I don’t need to find an excuse to drink bourbon on a Tuesday.

In which I attempt to process the transformation that is being thrust upon me by a certain orange someone.

Why did Timothee Chalamet wear a Halloween costume to the Oscars and is he dressed as a banana or a stick of butter?

Actions have consequences. Wake up and consider the consequences, especially the unintended ones. This will be very hard to fix. Act now.

If this is too long or difficult to understand, copy and paste it into ChatGPT and prompt it to summarize it for you as if you are a 10-year old.

To those in the “don’t blame me I didn’t vote” camp, um, I do blame you.
