Justice Juan Merchan has REJECTED Donald Trump’s bid to have his election interference conviction dismissed due to the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity decision.

Check out the newly elected leadership for the Durham Committee!

Last time Trump won, Republicans had a huge margin in the house, this time…. Not so much

THIS JUST IN: An investigation of Tulsi Gabbard's PACs shows much of the funds raised have gone to fundraising & to pay her advisers, not the stated mission of the PACs. Plus, she won't reveal the donors to a charity she runs. All this needs vetting. Pass it on. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

1/ We're experiencing a huge influx of users, and with that, a predictable uptick in harmful content posted to the network. As a result, for some very high-severity policy areas like child safety, we recently made some short-term moderation choices to prioritize recall over precision.

On the one hand, Trump’s tariffs would create an economic disaster. On the other hand, it’s a lot harder to consolidate authoritarianism when you’ve tanked the economy.

I still have an account open in the other place - not for long. It's gotten so bad over there; the lies, conspiracies, and prejudice have overtaken the place. I'm very thankful we have BlueSky in these troubling times. I'd appreciate the ability to select some accts to always be first on my feed tho

@support.bsky.team - is there a way to choose to see whatever my favorite people post anytime they share something?

“The document, assembled by investigators during a three-year sex-trafficking investigation into Mr. Gaetz, is a chart that shows a web of thousands of dollars in Venmo payments between Mr. Gaetz and a group of his friends, associates and women who had drug-fueled sex parties between 2017 and 2020”

Three of President-elect Donald Trump’s Cabinet picks have faced allegations of sexual misconduct.

A small percentage of dairy workers in Michigan and Colorado had antibodies from the highly virulent H5N1 bird flu in their blood. This means that there have already been a number of undetected human cases in the US. www.sciencealert.com/human-cases-...

This person is trying to lead the justice department www.nytimes.com/2024/11/20/u...

Matt Gaetz's Venmo payments look like an organized crime syndicate

Early in my own review of how to cover American politics where they are headed. No big idea. No theory of the case. One small thought, though. Make it three-sided rather than two. Habitually, I mean. The MAGA movement, the GOP, the Democrats. Lapsing into "the two party system" can only mislead.

I too keep thinking about this.

Interesting turn here

6-7 million people didn’t vote for Kamala Harris because of Gaza and Israel Now these fucking idiots are complaining about Trump being worse on the issue Unfortunately, they FAFO. And I can't feel bad for them

Annual morbidity in the 20th century, before and after vaccines: Measles: Before: 530,000, After: 47 Mumps: Before: 160,000, After: 429 Rubella: Before: 50,000, After: 3 Diphtheria: Before: 20,000, After: 2 Smallpox: Before: 30,000, After: 0 Polio: Before: 16,000, After: 0

They’re seeing how much he’ll do to stay in good with the fat old orange guy. They all have to degrade themselves while heaping praise on him.

Every day each of us doesn’t say or do something to protest this insanity is a day we contribute to making it seem normal and making it harder eventually to undo. So don’t let a day go by without registering your resistance — and refusing to signal your resignation!

One of the best things we can do moving forward is to ORGANIZE LOCALLY. We don't need to wait for mid-term elections to be upon us. We need to influence and participate in local politics/organizations NOW in order to affect change.

Doll: We have a jury system in this country for a reason. They spoke, and their decision should be honored and respected. A jury has spoken, and I think that should carry weight in a democracy and in our justice system. Merchan should take that into consideration, too—does that mean nothing anymore?

This is Meatball. He's going home for the very first time. So excited to have a human of his own. Thinking about what he's going to call you. Maybe Bob. 12/10

Telehealth providers say requests for the pills have spiked since the election. Patients and doctors worry what a Trump presidency could mean for medical abortion and emergency contraception.

His “popular” win continues to be eroded…

I'm looking for a way to mark "favorites" here so as to bring up certain posts first

It's quite a relief being here on Bluesky as opposed to that other hellscape! 🌹

Iran sent a message to the Biden administration in October saying that it was not trying to kill Donald Trump, as Tehran attempted to ease rising tensions with Washington, according to U.S. officials, as well as an Iranian official and an analyst.

He's more than just an 'anti-vaxxer': Here are 10 insane, off-the-wall clips of RFK Jr., in his own words, saying the craziest sh*t you've ever heard.

Chilling. Internal email that led to identifying Pete Hegseth as potential "Insider Threat" in National Guard.⬇️ It was clearly due to his tattoo "associated with Supremacist groups." On air, Hegseth has FALSELY claimed the reason was for a different (religious) tattoo. apnews.com/article/trum...

This sounds right

lmao

Thank you to the more than 400 (!!) people who offered to speak for this piece—Bluesky is now the top-charting free app, with daily traffic that has surpassed Threads! www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...

It's come to this...and now we await the possibility of a final report to be nade public. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Excuse me while I pick my jaw up off the floor. Matt Gaetz is an absolutely absurd AG pick by any rational standard and any ideological worldview. We're in uncharted waters of insanity right now.
