I simply do not understand how a NEWS ORGANIZATION is basically existing in a stage of siege but very rarely conveys in its political coverage that we are in a state of emergency

I can't imagine why people would want to alter their reality.

So you and David expect me, the REGULAR Democratic Voter and my Sistahs, the HARD IRON SPINE of the Democratic Party to give up our priorities...for theirs?

I didn’t know this: www.nytimes.com/2025/04/21/u...

If H5N1 turned into a pandemic, it would be really bad even if Trump weren't president. It'll be a disaster if he is.

"Americans summoned to kangaroo courts must understand the assignment: Do not be deferential. Do not cower. Whatever you turn over will be used against you, so fight accordingly—legally, as well as in court of public opinion." @noupside.bsky.social writes about being a target of the modern-day HUAC

Trump’s second term has been the worst start for any President since at least Hoover in stock market performance terms.

Larry David destroys Bill Maher in the most perfect way. (gift article)

Montana!

This is why everyone of you need to get a passport even if you never plan on using it Just do it and make sure to keep it renewed every 10 years. Voter suppression is real. & always vote in advance bc they are throwing out votes when convenient so you have time to make sure your vote was accepted

What she said for damn sake!!

Unbelievable. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Trump is still pushing the complete lie that Abrego Garcia has “MS-13” tattooed on his knuckles. In a sane country we’d be talking about impeachment and removal.

When you give a drunk a phone and access to sensitive, classified information this is what happens. Just throw the entire administration away. They’re garbage. #Voices4Victory #SheShed

JFC. So far, Trump has caused markets to lose about 14%. Here's how the same period to date looks under other recent presidential terms

READ THE COMPLAINT: Harvard sues the Trump administration for its attempts to "coerce and control" the university in violation of the First Amendment, the APA, etc. www.harvard.edu/research-fun...

NINETEEN THIRTY-TWO

🧐🧐

Watch this. He is more dangerous to American than Bin Laden.

1/ Harvard just sued the Trump administration in federal court, calling out a multibillion-dollar scheme to punish the university for defending free speech & academic freedom. This is a dangerous power grab — and Harvard is right to fight back. This professor is all in! 🔗 tinyurl.com/Harvard-sues

The wording here is incredibly broad: it does not say that recipients can't use funds for DEI, but that they can't do DEI in any capacity. They cannot engage in any discriminatory boycott (i.e. BDS). This seems to extend NIH conditions well into the domain of personal speech.

Read the whole thread, again young white women are in danger and they do not understand exactly how far back white men want to roll their rights. White supremacy in church pants is still white supremacy. They will go after all of us, but the slavery they fantasize about most is young white women's

WSJ: No confidence. Worst April since the Great Depression. www.wsj.com/finance/inve...

Pete Whiskey Leaks Hegseth is a disaster waiting to happen. He’s an incompetent, embarrassment to this country. He has no experience to do the job. He has zero common sense. He’s going to get our troops killed. Pete must go.

If you think the J6 defendants didn’t get due process you should take that up with the high level DoJ officials in your administration that represented them.

Who the fuck “looks forward” to attending a funeral?

"U.S. President Donald Trump holds a collectors card depicting the assassination attempt during the Easter Egg Roll on the South Lawn of the White House on April 21, 2025 in Washington, DC."

What’s the over under that after Hegseth is ousted from the Pentagon, he finds his calling, and gets taken in by Erik Prince and Blackwater? I honestly believe that there should be an investigation into his time at Guantanamo. I have zero doubt that he committed war crimes & human rights violations

What are they hiding—and why? 🚨 The ACLU is suing the SSA and VA for stonewalling FOIA requests about DOGE’s secret access to sensitive federal data. 📌 “If DOGE is forcing its way into OUR PRIVATE data, it is forcing itself into our PRIVATE LIVES.” — Lauren Yu www.wired.com/story/aclu-l...

Understand what is at stake @schumer.senate.gov You're at rock bottom Senator COUNTRY BEFORE EGO ENOUGH Thank you, Senator Schumer for your service But THE PEOPLE ARE TELLING YOU Time's Up Chuck

BREAKING: $1.4 trillion was wiped from the stock market today. The market is on pace for its worst April since 1932! Are you tired of winning yet?

#Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 Y’all know a picture tells a thousand words. If you think this is a joke, you aren’t paying attention to what The Felon is handing over to Putin! Fight this corrupt, incompetent regime! LFG!

Here we go! @kateconger.com was verified - not by Bluesky but by the NYTimes, one of the "trusted verifiers" Gonna keep saying it: a healthy digital society should distribute power!

Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

Frost: I'm one of many. I'm not the first member of congress here and I'm not going to be the last. This is not about Maxwell Frost. This is about preventing our country from losing what makes it exceptional.

If we, on the left cannot maintain civil discord amongst each other, we will lose, if we resort to name calling when we disagree, we will lose, if we get angry when one of us speaks out against anyone within the Democratic party, we are no better than the sycophants that kiss trump’s ass.
