Let’s start thinking about who has the skills to sort out this country. They need: ✅Intelligence ✅Compassion ✅Ability to form complete sentences ✅Proven administrative excellence ✅National/international respect ✅Kickass oratory skills ✅Military experience ✅Ability to stultify Fox & Friends

Bill and Hillary Clinton wrote a lengthy letter to Representative James R. Comer of Kentucky, the Republican chairman of the Oversight Committee, refusing to testify in Congress.

Pete on the Venezuela matter…

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social “When your government is lying to you about how it went about killing an American citizen … that is a failure of leadership at the highest level.”

1/2 🧵Tell an authoritarian how much you hate him, and he gets a surge of energy, and comes at you even stronger. Publicly ridicule him...and laugh at him, it's like you wield a magical power. Humiliation destabilizes authoritarians by stripping status...without triggering fear.

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social: "We have an ICE agent who should have been trained not to be in front of a vehicle and never to shoot into a moving vehicle, and yet this happened on [Kristi Noem's] watch. The whole POINT of Homeland Security is to make this country more stable and safe."

I’m happy to see so many folks reposting @petebuttigieg.bsky.social ‘s appearance on Chris Hayes’s show. If anyone knows Indiana politics, it’s Pete (and his former campaign mgr. Mike Schmuhl). Pete was on to Trump from the jump, as he says here in 2019. One of my favorite clips:

Pete out there lifting up other candidates like he does… Man I miss him.

When the President uses federal law enforcement for his personal revenge, it puts all of us in danger.

Republicans deliberately delayed the most damaging effects of their so-called “big, beautiful bill” until after the midterms, hoping to avoid accountability for how they are hurting people. But much of the damage is already happening.

What happens next is up to all of us - leaders and ordinary citizens alike. In responding to this horrific violence, the most important categories aren't left and right, they are about helping versus hurting. We should heed and amplify the voices who are helping.

I made a video to celebrate #PeteButtigieg and I believe Newsom trolling like a teen girl does nothing to make the middle class feel hopeful. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social brings hope through sophisticated problem-solving and empathy. He is my candidate. youtu.be/tO2AAkvGR0Q?...

No one is better at explaining things than @petebuttigieg.bsky.social. Wishing you all a wonderful and MEANINGFUL Juneteenth! 🖤

Hey @agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov and @gavinnewsom.bsky.social, why aren’t the people who illegally threw our United States Senator to the ground getting charged with assault? I don’t understand.

I learned so much from Renee Ferguson. She made countless lives better through her brilliant investigative journalism—as well as her mentorship of young people looking to make a difference.

Oh, Joni…

@theweekendmsnbc.bsky.social Omg! I’m sure these are all fine people, but they do not a braintrust make. Please switch up this show immediately before they completely destroy your ratings and our trust in your network.

GO. MOW. YOUR. MOM. Please report my murder!

This has to stop. Has to.

Pride on the Horizon… For all who celebrate, we see you, we love you, and we honor everything you bring to our lives and families and government 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ #TeamPete #Pride

This is how it’s done! FRIDAY: South Park, San Diego, neighbors weren’t having it. When ICE rolled up on an Italian restaurant in unmarked cars and started grabbing workers, the community hit the streets. (Sound up)

For all those who have the audacity to leave their cats for longer than a few hours… #Caturday

🔥🔥🔥 #TeamPete

Someone has a crush… #Caturday

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

I am sooooo jazzed and honored to have this convo with @katemckean.bsky.social! And you get to join us ... don't miss it! #BookSky

I’m sorry? Hi Dems. @housedemocrats.bsky.social

If you need a break from all the graft and chaos… Here’s a link to Pete Buttigieg’s Iowa Town Hall yesterday. If you ever get a chance to see him in person on the stump, you’re in for a treat. Iowa agrees. #TeamPete #ThePeteEffect www.youtube.com/live/YuA_c4R...

Check out his Iowa Town Hall today on @meidastouch.com #ThePeteEffect

This should be really good!

#TeamPete Has anyone listened to the Port of Long Beach CEO, Mario Cordero? Every time I hear him present what’s happening, I hear Pete. It occurs to me he may have picked up his phone, called his old boss, and asked for a few pointers. Or it may be his own genius—either way it’s very effective

Duffy continues to lie, because he doesn’t want to accept any accountability. As for Secretary Buttigieg, he and his department recruited and trained over 1800 controllers last year, and they requested funding to find another 2000 in 2025. The Trump admin sent them buyout letters.

Wanna know what’s really going on at Newark airport? Talk to a professional. Tonight at 6PT/9ET #TeamPete #ThePeteEffect

Union made, Baby! Because Pete knows what it takes to actually support manufacturing. No tariffs involved. #TeamPete #ThePeteEffect

“We need a popular uprising and a general strike” — @mherskovitz.bsky.social

On the 55th anniversary of Kent State, where the National Guard shot and killed four student protesters and wounded nine others, we pause to remember the chilling effect it had and the slippery slope we are on. #TeamPete #ThePeteEffect #KentState
