Boom: Just this morning a judge temporarily blocked DOGE from accessing critical Treasury payment systems.

Most of what the GOP is saying about USAID is plain lies. The true allegations are simply the customary political orientation of USAID depending on who is president. Trump can eliminate DEI policies without gutting the entire agency and killing people. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/08/u...

Share everywhere. I'm ready, let's get started. Trump's worse every day. MAGAts are loading their weapons. #ResistanceUnited

One of the nation’s largest health insurers is under fire for making plans to cutoff coverage of #anesthesia care if a surgery or procedure lasts too long. #cpp #chronicpain rebrand.ly/r1e01jc

I will not be silent. I will not back down.

I feel sorry for the people who voted against the Republicans who appointed these clowns, and will now become yet more statistics in the century-long saga of "See? Of course vaccines save lives!"

RFK Jr. is actively spreading misinformation about vaccines, and Vaccine SCIENTIST, Dr. Peter Hotez is still fighting his propaganda! Thank you, Dr. Hotez!

To nominate somebody who does not have the best interests of science based factual preventative care would be tantamount to mass murder. Measles, Mumps, and Rubella shot better known as MMR has been proven to prevent these diseases. Several states do not have heard immunity to them. People will die.

Says it all.

I can’t believe this is really happening! 😫 #FuckMusk

Heartbreaking. https://buff.ly/41dYSyS

Bill Clinton cleaned up the 1st Bush Admin. mess & last time we had no deficit. Barack Obama cleaned up 2nd Bush Admin. mess and gave Americans healthcare access for all. Joe Biden cleaned up the 1st Trump Admin. mess and lowered drug prices. Imagine what Democrats could do without a GOP mess!🔥

The father of twelve children, who promotes families having more children, spent Thanksgiving with none of them. Instead, he was discussing video games with Barron and awkwardly bopping to YMCA, referred to as the ‘Gay National Anthem’.

This is pretty funny.

Contemplation for today…. if you LIKE IT give it 💙and plz RP😘😘

A Missouri judge permanently struck down four provisions of the state’s sweeping voter suppression law, House Bill 1878, that criminalized civic engagement activities like voter registration and the distribution of absentee ballot applications. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Ah yes, Democrats committed fraud yet again to the point where [checks notes] Republicans won the House, Senate, and White House. Got it.

Thanksgiving at Mar-a-Lago.

Pathetic

I’ve been vetting and following folks back until I have to stop for other life hacks. I’m deeply troubled by the amount of followers who have no photos, no bio, no posts, and no replies who become followers.

Mediaite obtained the police report of the Pete Hegseth alleged sexual assault incident. The details are horrific and should be disqualifying.

Until abortion is legal in every state, lets require men to get a mandatory vasectomy until they are proven emotionally mature, financially responsible and ready to be a father. Wait, what do you mean regulations on men's bodies make you uncomfortable?

I ask the people in power, with large platforms and public profiles: For the last few years, you have been saying what everyday Americans need to do. With Trump coming: Isn't it your time to stand up? Isn't it your time to show some heroism? Isn't it your time to do what you expected from others?

Did you know BlueSky only has 20 employees? We would like to say a huge THANK YOU to those 20 warriors (who are working 24/7 to keep up with the incredible growth) for giving us a space to share. We escaped hell to be here. Thank you, @bsky.app & Jay Graber CEO (not a billionaire)

Damn. From @lesliemac.bsky.social: “Black women have always been at the forefront of America’s most transformative movements… It’s not for glory or recognition, but because we know the cost of inaction.” medium.com/@LeslieMac/i...

Funny because true.

President Biden appointing 61 Black LIFETIME judges during his time in office is a serious flex. He understood the damn assignment.

If you needed even MORE of a reason to switch to Bluesky, China is "troubled" by the fact that they've invested so much time on Twitter buying ads, bots, and influencers... only to see the people they're seeking to manipulate (us) flee the site. www.semafor.com/article/11/2...

Today, U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman put Rudy Giuliani in his place. Disbarred, disruptive, and disgraced, Giuliani sat in a Manhattan courtroom and ranted about his impoverished existence now that he’s been forced to surrender his assets to the Georgia election workers he defamed — …

This is a real team effort, fellow patriots. 🇺🇸

This isn’t just The Good Place. It’s The Resistance Place.

In addition to Voting Machines, she also trademarked postmark checking devices. I'll say it again for the people in the back: "POSTMARK. CHECKING. DEVICES." trumpfile.org/china-approv...

Optimist: The cup is half full. Pessimist: The cup is half empty. Herodotus: While some Medes say the cup is half full, the Lydians say it's half empty, and the Thracians say that tit is only a cup if it is made of the skulls of their enemies. In Egypt they pee into cups & drink from chamber pots.
