For the record her name is Dr. Eva Ramón Gallegos and she is a scientist, professor, and researcher at the Escuela Nacional de Ciencias Biológicas of the Instituto Politécnico Nacional. Her field of specialty is in biomedical sciences and nanobiotechnology.

Let is examine what we know. Trump: 2011-2013: Repeatedly accused Obama of planning Iran attack so he’d be reelected. 2018: Backs out of the Iran Nuclear Deal they were complying with. 2026: Tells Zelenskyy elections can’t happen during war. Sees GOP electoral defeats/polling. Attacks Iran.

@mehdirhasan.bsky.social people may not have specifically voted for XYZ…but they DID vote for cages and retribution and greed, etc. They just thought the horrible things they voted for would only hurt people they disliked. They still voted for hate and incompetence. We all will pay that price.

Every accusation is a confession.

We already know how petty and small MAGA is by empowering Trump. I want to talk to Democrat voters who support @schumer.senate.gov & @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and their “Israel First” agenda. Is bombing schoolchildren really what we’re doing now? Their sins will mark us for generations to come…

😔

Americans be like, “Wait, this is a thing? We can do that??”

With so much craziness going on in the world, it’s the middle of February and I haven’t taken a moment to celebrate Black History Month, and honor those that came before me. I can never make it through this song without tearing up. If this song doesn’t touch your soul, you don’t have one…

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social vetoed a LOT of initiatives that would have helped people…when Trump won this 2nd term he started his podcast by courting pretty nasty right wingers, figuring the political winds were blowing that way…unless you are a Crypto Bro or a corporation, Newsom is not your friend.

I’ve long held that President’s Day was a relic of days past. Presidents should be celebrated for the good they do for the people…not because of a holiday.

I’m not saying violence is the answer. I’m saying that I understand.

🙋🏾‍♂️

Broadly speaking: reality tv is bad for democracy, influencers are bad for democracy, streamers are bad for democracy, YouTubers are bad for democracy. Exceptions to all categories exist, but it’s astonishing how absolutely clogged our political and media ecosystems are with low-info narcissists

His two biggest scandals were that he wore a tan suit once, and he ate his hamburger with Dijon mustard. He didn’t have secret police terrorizing cities. He didn’t have a “for sale” sign on the WH. He wasn’t friends w/the world’s most notorious ChiMo-trafficker. Don’t you miss stability, America?

Of course this’ll convince his detractors all the more that aliens are real (and they are) but that the government is colluding with them. This is much more palatable to them than the fact that the president they elected is now protecting ChiMo’s in the BEST of circumstances (or is one himself).

"You have no idea what it's like to be a coward. To see these horrors...and do nothing." Star Trek Starfleet Academy gets hate for being “woke” today. This old DS9 episode, “Duet” is heart wrenching. It’s poignant in today’s context because some of you may be feeling like this years from now. 😔

Look at this @mayor.nyc.gov guy! Who does he thinks he is? It’s bad enough he TRICKED NY voters by speaking to issues that affect THEM (instead of the poor billionaires), and promised reforms that they really want…now he’s MARRYING them too? What next, kissing babies!? Outrageous! Shameful! 😆😌😆

Merrick Garland (rightfully) takes a lot of criticism for being weak and ineffective, and him dragging his ass investigating Trump’s crimes allowed him to evade justice. He also chose not to do anything about the Epstein files. Obama, Biden, and Trump all chose/are choosing to protect the cabal.

🤷🏾‍♂️

You thought it was a cabal run by Hillary and Democrats in the non-existent basement of a pizzeria. Then you voted in one of the most mentioned people in the Epstein files, and now you’re quiet? What will it be…admit you were wrong? Or protect a cabal of predators led by the guy you empowered?

This video is an hour long, but it’s a very thorough (and accurate) examination of how the current brand of American “Christianity”came to be & why Christian Nationalism has become the ethos of choice among bad faith actors (pun intended) in the US. @jimmythegiant.bsky.social, I’m a fan now.

If you are a progressive Democratic voter you have to fight both the Republicans AND the “moderate/centrist” Democrats. I’d argue the moderates and centrists are the bigger roadblock to progress because they pull the party further to the right, but never Republicans to the left. Tell me I’m lying.

Fascism doesn’t arise because people love cruelty. It’s because democracy has failed to deliver material security, and demagogues step into the vacuum. A democracy can have its people with a basic minimal standard of living, or have the majority of wealth concentrated in the hands of a few…not both.

Hope and Fear are the two primary emotions that drive voting behaviors. If your chosen candidate leaves you angry and afraid, there’s a good chance that you can be easily manipulated into continually supporting them and blaming everyone else for why your life has not improved. Hope doesn’t do that.

Even if you’re the MAGAiest MAGA that ever MAGAed, remember that world leaders never had to correct numerous etiquette, spelling, and grammatical errors on the world stage when Biden & Obama were your presidents. There are 5th graders who wouldn’t have needed to be corrected like this. 🤔🧐🤨

We are officially living out the part of history that will make school kids ask, “Why didn’t anyone do anything to stop them?” If you don’t want to be a person who in your old age wants to ban books and historical accounts of today’s events…now is the time to speak out. All joking aside.

You KNOW you’re in the wrong when the Libertarians are making sense. I say that facetiously, but of all right-leaning groups they seem to be the most principled. Every other group (evangelicals) have just shifted their “values” and subjugated themselves to the Golden Calf they empowered.

The most chilling part is that this was distributed by the War Department. The same entity that today is invading countries and sending soldiers and anonymous police to beat people and disappear them…everything its predecessor warned about. This regime will mark us and our children for generations.

I think no matter what happens at the conclusion of this regime, Stephen Miller needs to be turned over to the United Nations to stand trial for Crimes Against Humanity. He orchestrated the Proud Boy takeover of ICE. He pushed for the crimes against Venezuela. He’s on Greenland now. #accountability

After I die, don't exaggerate about my good qualities. I don't light up the room, everyone doesn't want to be my friend, and people don't immediately take notice of my talents. But I do try really hard to make my family and friends feel wanted, safe, respected, comfortable, and loved.

Life is too short to be treated with scorn and disrespect. Don’t ever let anyone treat you like a Yellow Starburst. You are a PINK Starburst!

I, for one, am ECSTATIC that the US has set the precedent that foreign countries can kidnap criminal presidents and make them face charges in the country they committed crimes against, especially when their own country refuses to hold them accountable. Criminal presidents should be on notice.

A big schism on the left is that the more moderate, establishment wing of the party wants to “tone down” 🏳️‍⚧️ rights rhetoric because “it doesn’t play well politically”. There was a time in America where the same was said about black and women’s rights too. We’re NOT throwing 🏳️‍⚧️ ppl under the bus!

All he had to do was give them permission to be the absolute worst version of themselves, and they were all in. A lot of them are expressing remorse right now, but we tried telling them. When you vote to hurt others, you invariably vote to hurt yourself, because you are a part of the whole.

Letting ACA credits expire reinforces the view where government is supposed to fail so people lose faith in it. If people suffer: It proves “government doesn’t work.” It validates privatization. It strengthens austerity arguments It keeps voters desperate and angry That’s the feedback loop.

This can’t be true! This must be fake news! @schumer.senate.gov said that Republicans would vote on these tax credits, if only the Democrats folded and give in to Trump! Who could have foreseen that they wouldn’t keep their word!? Someone please, make it make sense!! 😱😭😱

Imagine being a multibillionaire that has had everything handed to you, has never been held accountable for anything, has been given effective immunity for crimes you commit by the highest court in the land…and you’re so insecure you have to have an award created just to stroke your fragile ego?

💀💀💀

So…what are we going to do about the SCOTUS? Two of the “justices” are there illegitimately (Gorsuch after Obama was denied his pick, and Coney Barrett because the GOP reversed their own election year standard). Even if Dems win, the SCOTUS will still legislate to give the GOP wins. Ideas?

Every minority group of people that felt they were “one of the good ones” got absolutely screwed by the Trump administration and they get as much sympathy from me as people in the majority who were indifferent to the horrendous policies that they felt would only impact “other” people.

“Does Christianity create abusers, or do cynical, abusive people hijack Christianity for their own purposes? Yes…yes to both of those questions”-GMS An interesting piece. When people hear “America+Christianity” very few people think of peace or love. People think of the people shown in this video.

These ain’t just fancy opal apples. They’s:

Well now! This is what is colloquially known as an elbow off the top rope!

I’m not sure what species these are, but I think it’s pretty safe to say that they aren’t raindeer.

🤣🤣🤣

Well if he is I hope it’s the folks that run around being shitty to everyone else and justifying their chicanery by using his name.
