I sat through it all but you don't need to watch this grifter the whole way - but do catch the end where she reveals her vote. It's a doozy.

I feel like whenever I peek in here everybody is telling each other what to say or not say. I dunno. It's more so than the other place. Kind of a strange phenomenon/vibe here. My entire feed seems to be people yelling at each other for not doing enough

I want to thank Senator @edmarkey.bsky.social for this post - it's the first thing that's made me feel hopeful since the election. Save this image to your phones. Whenever you feel like things are hopeless and we can't win, look at that image. It made me want to fight again!

What y'all have to understand is what we were taught about the Civil Rights Movement was distorted and wrong. It was not a sudden uprising of marches and actions, resulting in quick change. It was a carefully built machine, with test cases, trials, and planning. Extensive, intensive planning and

This is not a U.S. Marshal, Federal Protective Service, or any other federal law enforcement officer. This is a private security guard from Triple Canopy. He has no authority to block members of Congress who have oversight of the EPA from entering the building.

I really just want to sell my house, grab my dog, and move to Montpellier, France. And I'd do it, but I'm in that black hole of still needing to work but being aged out of a lot. grr

Also try using your login.gov account to get your social security statement, if your username at the SSA isn't working - I just got in now with login.gov. Really critical to save a copy of that. It lists all you've earned and are entitled to.

MSNBC now showing an empty podium. Waiting for Trump and Netanyahu. While House Dems are rallying in front of the Treasury. The most successful Republican propaganda in history was Ronald Reagan’s “liberal media” fantasy. It doesn’t exist, has never existed.
