Q: do you believe that gay people exist?
 @michaeljknowles : I think some people are attracted to members of the same-sex, yes.
 Q:Those would be gay people, correct?

@amnanawaz.bsky.social Bravo for pushing back against against Michael Knowles' homophobic and transphobic nonsense! On every level he's a fool, and a bigot. Thank you for speaking for the disenfranchised!!

Thursday’s front page of the British Daily Star. Putin’s Poodle

Santa Fe, NM coming out in force against the corruption and lies of Trump and Musk. When there was no room left near the Capital we started spilling out on the other side of the street.

@repstansbury.bsky.social@ Thanks for standing up against 47's lawlessness and unconstitutional actions, and that of his billionaire cronies. Way to go!!!

@mariannedgarbudde.bsky.social Thanks for doing the right thing. Speaking truth to power is difficult, but it must be done; speaking for the poor and disenfranchized. The backlash exposes the hypocrisy of the right with their big talk about god and religion.
