@jdvance1.bsky.social this you?

This is the story.

Let me ask again: where are presidents Obama, Bush and Clinton. Where are the Fortune 500 CEOs? The university presidents. Is all this “leadership” stuff they tout just words? I don’t want to think so but the question must be asked.

The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

Union Square rally.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

🤔

Mitch McConnell voting no on terrible cabinet picks because he doesn’t have to run for reelection is all the proof you need that we must have term limits. You shouldn’t only have a spine because you don’t have to run again. We are breeding chicken shit power hungry electeds.

Same. It’s “inaccurate”

"I want you to shush your ----- mouth"

"You are not the president and you need to go away.”

@drjackbrown.bsky.social look at Trump’s face.

New Video! I lay out the case for actually opposing the Trump administration, and tell you why I think the collaborationists in the Democratic Party are dead wrong. Check it out, leave a comment, share with a friend! Thanks so much for the support. youtu.be/63TUMaYatzo?...

I just lost my job, along with most of my coworkers, due to the illegal grant freeze. I worked at an organization that -helped veterans who have lost a limb -Assisted elderly and disabled people -Helped hospitals better treat people who have lost limbs

He doesn’t realize what an idiot he is.

USAID TRIVIA:

If all the Black NBA and NFL players went on strike, the drive to end DEI would be stopped dead in its tracks. #BlackSky

@marcorubio.bsky.social are you going to let this happen in your department? Will upu tolerate this blatant racism? @secrubio.bsky.social

I agree, but we are already seeing it happen. There are currently: 84 voting and election cases pending in 39 states. 19 redistricting lawsuits. 19 lawsuits challenging Trump's illegal actions. Anyone interested, should check out Democracy Docket. www.democracydocket.com

Senator Bill Cassidy had the opportunity to ensure families are informed and have access to lifesaving vaccines. Although the Republican doctor had deep misgivings about RFK Jr.'s nomination, he caved to pressure from the right, casting the tie-breaking... 1/ www.nationalreview.com/corner/cassi...

Indivisible is urging people to visit their senators' local offices between now and Thursday to demand that they use every tool—including denying a quorum and blocking unanimous consent—to fight the confirmation of Project 2025 architect Russell Vought for head of OMB docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Trump’s plan bears a striking resemblance to one sent by Elon Musk sent to Twitter (X) employees in 2023, before laying off around 80 percent of the company’s workforce. The two memos even have the same title — “Fork in the Road.” www.kenklippenstein.com/p/trump-buyo...

Darren Beattie, the new head of public diplomacy at State, spent January 6 telling various black people — including Tim Scott — to “learn their place” and “take a knee to MAGA” www.thebulwark.com/p/even-as-hi...

@secrubio.bsky.social you’ve got to be kidding. Is this a joke?

If you have never reached out to your representative, today is the day. I don’t care what party you are in. Why does an unelected person with no official get access to federal payment systems? Please inundate your electeds and express your anger at all of this. (202) 224-3121
