Is there any Rapid Response Team for the Dem Party? Every time Biden or Obama did anything, a unified response from Republicans went out to the country - True or false- it didn't matter, but it was unified. Do the Dems have this? Can I join? #fakenews #rapidresponse #democrats #demresponse

Is it my imagination, or are there a lot of columns referring to the "last days of an opinion writer" in the #NYTimes opinion pages? The latest - @charlesmblow.bsky.social . @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/02/05/o...

Can't he just stick to annoying Americans? Does he have to embarrass us internationally? Again? #DonTrumpJr #hunting timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/don...

And from the no-shit files. @nytimes.com #newyorktimes has decided to let people now know that immigrants are - wait for it - critical. It's a bit late now. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/31/o...

I saw this kid at the Washington DC March for Our Lives. And seen him on TV. After Mayor Pete, he is one of my favorite Democratic voices! Intelligent and psyched about the future. Great Choice! @davidhogg.bsky.social #DemocraticParty#news www.joemygod.com/2025/02/demo...

Both times that Trump has been elected, the @theeconomistevents.bsky.social trots out justification for support of him with the idea that this time (or the new year), Trump could be great by overcoming his small-mindedness and resentment. He never does. www.economist.com/united-state...

As a UCLA fan, it is tough to root for Ohio State from the BIG 10. I'm still not used to being in the BIG 10. But it is a little easier because they are playing Texas. #collegefootball #OSU #UCLA

During the non-stop Trump Show, season 2 - I find the gentle disagreements over the #SAGAwards wonderful. I think #Conclave is so overrated it is not funny. And don't even get me started on Season 3 of #TheBear. But I'm glad for #JonathonBaily; he stole the show.

@peter-wehner.bsky.social Your article on dehumanization missed some aspects of America. We DO lionize killers. We fetish guns. There is no way to argue with health insurance. AND we have found the value of E-suites. THIS shooting the full attention of police. For regular people, no such effort.

Who do you think Trump will cave to first on illegal immigration: Meat slaughterhouses, farmers, or construction firms? #illegalimmigrants #deportation

This article helped me understand the MAGA obsession with hating "The Elites." As someone who put themselves through UCLA - when you could afford to - I had only seen snippets in anger before this. The author explains the full "elephant.". www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc... #education #politics

I am beginning to think this entire election complex is just a way to scam us out of money. I liked it better when we just gave each candidate a reasonable amount of money and off we went. Citizens United has well and truly screwed up this country.
