NOW would be a good time for someone or a group of people to start a replacement for Facebook just as Bluesky has replaced Twitter! www.nbcnews.com/tech/social-...

Elections have consequences

There are 32m small businesses in the USA

Longest speaking filibuster ever was 24 hours, 18 minutes by Strom Thurmond in opposition to the Civil Rights Act of 1957. In a few hours, that record will be shattered by Sen. Cory Booker, a Black man, laying out the case for saving democracy from an aspiring despot.

Clyburn: "People better get serious about this. When he says he's not joking about throwing away the Constitution, which is what he'd have to do to have a third term, and we are not gonna rise up in opposition to that? I think it's time for us all to wake up."

Our problem children.

Just a clarification...

The abuser’s classic playbook is to isolate you from your friends, create a sense of helplessness, make it difficult to connect with others and force you to simply think about your survival from one day to the next. We are seeing that playbook applied to the nation as a whole.

They can't spell "April"? "The termination emails were riddled with mistakes — with employees’ names, the month of April and even the institute’s title misspelled in places — a telling sign of the rushed and haphazard nature of the operation..." www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Does anyone know the unemployment rate for Veterans ? If 30 percent of the federal workforce is Vets, the number could get ugly quickly. Any data out there ?

Remind you of anyone particular?

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

Huge thanks to Washington and Columbia Counties for the big turnout at yesterday’s town halls in Hillsboro and Scappoose. Oregonians are outraged about the Trump administration’s lawlessness. I appreciated each question about what it means and how we fight back.

I’m thinking about federal income tax. If the federal government isn’t meeting its obligations why should we? Specifically, I’d love to see states get the money first and hold it in trust pending litigation. I want to pay my taxes but not to a government that doesn’t respect the constitution.

Money talks

is the goal merit or is the goal segregation?

Lord knows I’m not a constitutional scholar not even a lawyer (and I’ve yet to check in with @kateshaw.bsky.social) but a legal regime in which “you can do crimes if you’re buddies with the president or praise him publicly” is *on its face* a violation the equal protection of the laws.

Truth 👇

I have a plan. 🤔

Dems should propose a law that immediately requires every fed agency to post on @bsky.app account, every outlay with a detailed description, $, and a link to existing gov sites with in depth details Rather than trying to keep Elon out, pre-empt him so he cant miss characterize spending.

I’ve got the morning shift. This guy is dangerous and unfit to serve and I’m about to explain why. Tune in: www.senate.gov/legislative/...

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been! with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

Dear @Doge If there is nothing to hide. Hide nothing

Keep saying creepy! Call them Musk's bloodboys! This is better!

Their faith lets them worship power while they’re offended by mercy. It’s not Christianity they’re practicing.

Helpful!

Today is Alders 4’th birthday! We brought cupcakes today for everyone in his class. So proud 😍 #AldersWorld

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be. You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion. Which is more powerful?

Wild guess here, but maybe it is Monday the 20th when hell freezes over.

You just can't beat the truth.

Mark Cuban is ready to fund a TikTok alternative built on Bluesky’s AT Protocol

It's no mystery why the tramp wants these areas. He has promises to keep to his owners and handlers.

It's really not about leaving the other platforms. It's about bringing people here and giving them more engagement than the other apps. That's what people want. Engagement. Takes nothing to offer it If there is a user on another app that you like, DM them and invite them here. Post and tag me

I will never accept masshole tramp as the president. Never.

Please stop saying "rolled back diversity goals" and start saying "the company capitulated to a segregationist movement." www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.
