I just heard on French radio “Because the United States is no longer an ally.”

Chuck Schumer still thinks it's the era of polite letters and handshake deals. But those days are over. Fighting the rise of authoritarianism demands steely resolve - not compromise. Schumer’s time is up. Only bold, unflinching leadership can save our democracy. @schumer.senate.gov The Reformers

Legal counsel representing federal employees is now being targeted by the Trump administration. Law firms are receiving a clear message that retaliation is possible for those advocating on behalf of individuals or groups opposing the administration’s agenda.

Every dem should have walked out. Spineless.

Since Congress’s allotted funds have already been improperly unallocated, U.S. citizens are questioning whether they are legally required to continue paying federal taxes.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

I think Americans have to understand things won't go back to normal and no one is coming to save us. The self destructive decision to vote for Trump is going to cause long term pain, damage and weakness. We have to survive and try to rebuild something better. Generational effort sadly.

Anyone in the world that takes the US word for anything is going to get played for a sucker. We, as a society, have become the schoolyard bully.

The United States now playing the role that communist satellite states once played in the UN: sponsoring resolutions in its own name but on behalf of Moscow.

We are firing Rangers at National Parks, scientists & aid workers that treat/prevent/research disease and feed the poor, & disabled vets helping fellow vets at VA hospitals, but the good news is we are going to buy a shit ton of crypto so Trump & his friends can make billions.

We all know what they say about people who make assumptions.

How did we become this stupid as a society?

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org

A reminder for these times.

NAILED IT...... @nothoodlum.bsky.social

So it is only “disrespect” if you aren’t paying to play? Muskrat can wear whatever he wants?
