He nails it.

WATCH all 4 parts of Kamala Harris receiving the NAACP Chairman's award. We need to heed her words. "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty"

Mockery is powerful. It takes away the aura of strength. Mock Donald Trump... relentlessly!

Trump is surrendering America. Trump is the opposite of strong. He is a tiny, weak, small, scared, trembling, sissy, husk of a man. There is nothing manly about his fat, sweaty, smelly, gross, makeup'ed self An absolute joke

If you were wondering if there is a word to describe how the United States is currently being governed, why, yes, there is: kakistocracy!

I told people 5 months ago that the Trump admin was going to federally implement book bans. I was told I was fear mongering. Listen to me when I say, federal book bans in all public libraries are next.

Congrats, America. We're now on Putin's side.

This is true. @bsky.app is the app of the people. We may not all agree. We may not even all like each other. But we can engage and disagree and agree with our hate That makes the platform the future of social media

What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Thank you to @maddow.msnbc.com for promoting @bsky.app on air and complimenting it. Her on air support is truly important

“Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!”

A four-year-old boy named "Dominic" surprised his mother by bringing a baby deer home after returning from the woods in the backyard because he considered the deer his friend, and the mother took a picture of them. This happened in Virginia

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

Donald Trump calling Zelenskyy a “dictator” is pure projection.

He said he wanted to be a dictator...

That’s the ticket. Show up in court, with your Bar licenses on the line, and answer a judge’s pointed and specific questions on how this deal went down.

Doug Ford managed to work a full Question Period a total of 6 times in 2024. Quite the hero and leader

Oops @meidastouch.com

American planes are crashing almost every day and the Secretary of Transportation is visiting the Daytona 500 and tweeting at Pete Buttigieg.

There’s gonna be so many variations on this theme over the next three years and eleven months. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

i feel like this is evidence for my view that people experience trump through a strong form of ironic detachment. they literally do not perceive him as real.

🇨🇦 is coming for you 🍊Coward

Wow. I just crossed 500,000 followers here on Bluesky (compared to less than 100k on Election Day last November). The engagement on this site is pretty amazing. And nice not to have Nazis here, too. Thank you for following me and engaging in good faith conversations! Long may it continue.

Why is the richest man in the world cutting cancer research?

Zelenskyy: "I will never accept any decisions between the United States and Russia about Ukraine. Never."

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

@browneyegirlhi.bsky.social Take a look at this : Let me take a K troche when nobody’s watching. WTF!!

Pete Hegseth's DOD has decided to recruit at an NRA event rather than a Black Engineering event. www.military.com/daily-news/2...

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.

With a roll of the dice, Gen-Xers dodged a bullet by making all of our mistakes before digital technology existed. Whew! Not having to have our most embarrassing moments “stitched,” shared and ridiculed is a small mercy from the gods. open.substack.com/pub/livingin... #GenX #socialmedia

Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania successfully synchronised their electricity systems with the European energy network today. This is a key milestone for the Baltic States and for Europe strengthening energy resilience and independence across the region. ⚡️

She speaks truth.
