We made this ad last year to give people a grim preview of Trump's second term. It's day 2 and we're already on track for some of the worst outcomes: youtu.be/NpLpOtFNFWg?...

if there is one funny thing about yesterday’s blitzkrieg of executive orders is that it makes the “democratic opposition went too far last time” crowd look like total dipshits

All these women who turned in January 6 terrorists are in danger tonight

With Trump signing executive orders that violate the Constitution and violate the law, and with him pardoning the January 6 defendants who attacked and injured police officers & committed countless other crimes at the U.S. Capitol, welcome to the age of governmental lawlessness in America.

I've avoided social media since the election and my mental health has never been better. Now that the felon is in office, I feel the need to pay attention again to how bad things will get. 😞

Historic! First ever Felon President. Yes everyone is laughing at us and the ones who aren’t laughing feel pity. We will never recover from this dirt era.

Republicans want to tell you what books you can read, what bathroom you can use, what words you can say, what history you can learn, what you can or can’t do with your own body and what gender you are… but tell me more about how the Dems are “coming for your freedoms”. Idiots.

He’ll forever be guilty.

It's going to be worse than we thought... Must read!

So did all these news orgs just schedule these pieces for *after* the election or what

Now that they destroyed their own neighborhood, the Maga/Elon trolls are rolling in to BlueSky. My recommendation is to block early, on the first offense, without explanation. Here are my rules why I block them: open.substack.com/pub/therickw...

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens. Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”

Against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

Seriously, my mood has shifted now that I spend more time at BlueSky and much less time there. It’s kind of shocking how much. I never realized how miserable that place made me, which absolutely carried into real world issues. Never again will I do that.

I am just a few bad decisions away from buying an orange Dodge Charger complete with confederate flag on the roof and loading the trunk up with mifepristone and driving to Louisiana.

My account has gained 50,000 followers in the past five days and I’m having a heckuva time follerin’ everybody back. Like this post and that will help me make sure you get a foller!

The listed Trump appointees are — for the most part— the most grotesque, unethical and deviant group of humans ever introduced as those serving the American public and are a danger to this country.

I’ve seen enough to make a call: Bluesky is going to be a legit competitor to Twitter. Sweet.

If you’re looking for doom posting about things, I’m not your guy. It’s bad, but I’ve spent my life dusting myself off and getting back to work. We don’t have the luxury to throw our hands in the air and let things collapse. I’m working to organize and fight against the horror show coming. Let’s go!

Trump’s top advisor says Trump has a mandate to assemble an “extinction level event.”

Left wing Gen-Xers are perfectly comfortable right now, because everything has failed us our entire entire lives. We're used to it.

We've now reached the "cover for child rape in exchange for earthly power" phase of Mike Johnson's Christianity.

How come nobody ever suggested Tulsi was involved in the 2016 Russian hack of the DNC? She was there at the time. She suddenly resigned because of how “Bernie was treated”. That always felt suspicious and like bullshittery to me. That’s when I first became alerted to her.

This gave me goosebumps. “My 18-year-old daughter was at Starbucks, alone, the other night. A man came up to her and started talking to her. A barista handed her “an extra hot chocolate someone forgot to pick up.” How grateful I am for people who look out for other people!” We need each other.

Put me in your starter pack! I like it here.

I don’t understand the hesitance in opposing the GAETZ nomination. I mean, is it that hard to come out against a sexual predator of minors? What’s the moral dilemma????

. So, hey... If you're looking for a place to eat in Los Angeles... I suggest you spend your money at places like Sage Regenerative Kitchen, where they actually give a shit about people.

I don’t even wanna think about all of the criminals that the Fanta führer will pardon.
