Dear world, please do not judge us harshly. Most of us are good-caring people, and we hate him too.

Billionaires and mega donors have been given free reign to buy our elections ever since the Citizens United decision was handed down by SCOTUS on this day 15 years ago. These dark money donors are a serious threat to our Democracy, we have to #StopTheOligarchy

Trump moved his inauguration indoors because he claims temperatures may reach "severe record lows," with temperatures in the 20s (those temps are nowhere near record lows). Other presidents have held inaugurations outdoors with temperatures in the 20s, including FDR, Jimmy Carter, JFK, and Obama.

January 20th 2025 will be #ShutYourMouthDonaldTrumpDay

Amongst trumps other atrocious nominees, he nominated this nasty b*tch for U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. What an utter embarrassment! We need to make some noise about Elise Stefanik. She has no business being confirmed to this very important, and forward facing position!

Nearly 400 incarcerated firefighters are helping battle the destructive blazes that are rapidly spreading across Southern California as a powerful windstorm devastates the region. The wages they are paid to compensate them are meager. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

It is advisable to refrain from disseminating this cartoon, as it may cause distress to Jeff Bezos. 😷🤫

Dead accurate. And he got stuff he wanted into the CR as well. And he has a vested interest in radiating the debt ceiling too. The Big Steal will be the Big Government. It’s the heist of the millennium.

Millionaires and billionaires would be perfectly FINE not getting salary for 33 days, or even 333 days. The average American, folks like you and me working paycheck to paycheck, would not. Do NOT let billionaires make decisions for US. PASS IT ON.

President-elect Musk is really setting down the marker of how he wants to run his administration. VP Trump better pay attention.

Every Democrat should be on every media outlet the moment a shutdown starts hammering Trump, Musk, and the GOP. Say they had a deal until Musk opposed it, the GOP cowered, and Trump allowed it. Call them weak, spineless puppets. Pin every second of it on their cowardice and greed. And don't stop.

A tutorial on how oligarchs govern: 1. Elon says no. 2. Elon tweets no. 3. Someone reads Elon's tweet to Elon's purchased President. 4. Elon's purchased President says no.

Elon Musk, who got exactly zero votes and is constitutionally ineligible to be president, bought the United States of America and feels entitled to call the shots on keeping the government open. Now he wants the debt ceiling raised so that Trump can get the tax cuts through—for him (Elon).

Good messaging. From here on out Dems need to promote the story that Trump and his billionaire cronies are stealing from Americans.

It's so embarrassing

WE ARE STILL IN THIS. Wipe your tears. This is the difficult business of hope and defying expectation. We do not give up. We run through the tape. Y’all aren’t allowed to throw in the towel until I do. 😉 Big breath. Locked in. Let’s do this.

As legacy media folds in the face of Trump threats, we must help shore up the news outlets and individual journalists that are moving ahead with rigorous, fearless coverage. Here are some recommendations in my new piece for @heartlandsignal.bsky.social ⤵️ heartlandsignal.com/2024/12/16/o...

📌“If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.” ― Lyndon B. Johnson *(One of the most prescient things ever said by anybody.)

I love this!

She schools junior!👀

Wait — so Elon Musk LIED when he claimed media reports that he’d spend $45 million each month for the last three months of the election to support Trump was “fake news”? Color me shocked.

🚨FOLLOW REQUEST🚨 Our candidate for this April's crucial Wisconsin State Supreme Court election - Susan Crawford - is officially on Bluesky! The best thing we can do at this moment? Help her build a BIG following for her @crawfordforwi.bsky.social account. Please give Susan a follow ASAP!

Trump owes E. Jean Carroll $83.3 million judgment but posted a bond with the Court instead of paying her, while he appeals. Meanwhile, he’s getting $15 million from ABC for defaming him by saying he raped Carroll. At the time of the civil jury verdict and the ABC reporter’s statement, NY rape laws

Election fraud and caravans. Disappeared like farts in the wind, didn’t they?

Most of Trump's appointees seem like people I wouldn't want to have anything to do with regardless of my political beliefs.

A reminder for the red hats in the back.
