Had to share.

Easily the best description of him I’ve ever read.

They have no idea that tariffs will make everything more expensive

"[Pete Hegseth] has in no way been fully cleared." Former Navy pilot and federal prosecutor @mikiesherrill.bsky.social on Pete Hegseth claiming he was "completely cleared" of sexual assault allegations.

In other Markwayne Mullin chicanery, he’s blocking the promotion of a Pentagon recommended three-star general. The general was the last U.S. soldier to board the final U.S. military plane out of Afghanistan and Mullin is using him as a political pawn. Absolutely disgraceful. #OklahomaBlueDot 🔵

For me, the thing that knocked the wind out of me with this election is that I dared to believe America would get it right THIS time, that America was ready for a Woman President. It hurt having that blind faith in neighbors, friends, and strangers smacked out of me. Dammit, America. 😞

Family includes everyone! ❤️

The state of Georgia has fired every member of a health care committee tasked with investigating maternal deaths after their report of 2 women who likely died due to abortion ban was leaked to the public. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

I know everyone is talking about #MattGaetz and #PamBondi but please don't miss this: Georgia fired every single person on its maternal mortality review committee. Why? They didn't like that reporters found out that the state's ban killed two women. www.propublica.org/article/geor...

📌I'm a Navy vet, and was the Managing Editor of Stars & Stripes, the editorially independent newspaper that covers the troops and their families overseas. 📌I wish to GOD I never had to write this, but you REALLY need to read it. (And if you are asking what to do, share it. Information is POWER.)

It’s because Garland isn’t an unqualified cocaine fueled pedophile. Hope that helps.

Aaron Rodgers falling for a fake football stat is one small example of an enormous problem What happened during an exchange between the NFL quarterback and ESPN host Pat McAfee is basically the entire story of our information environment right now. www.msnbc.com/top-stories/...

For a guy that supposedly knew nothing about Project 2025, he sure is putting a metric shit ton of them in his administration.

Do you need someone to relight your fire? Strike a match and stoke those embers? Look at the faces of the children around you Just how many matches do you need to strike? #Poet #Poetry #TheAmericanHaitianPoet
