So much can be achieved with purpose, determination and patience.

Land of the free, home of the brave….

Are all Trump Tower paperwork and permits in order? Have they paid their city bills? Consequences?

After whom will the US version of “The Magnitsky Act” be called after and who will have the dubious honor of being held accountable.

Reasons to vote for anyone but Ken Paxton.

Listen on youtube or wherever you get ypur podcasts. Either way, The UK is learning to “follow the money” open.spotify.com/episode/2Vao...

Framing the looting of Corporate funds by way of political power was an excellent insight. I wish more US commentators/podcasters were able to discuss in realtime.

#Sudocrem was our goto for sunburn. Really helped avoid peeling. Sadly, no longer made in Ireland. I believe production moved to Bulgaria. #PSA If you must spend time in the sun, wear sunscreen & a hat. www.rte.ie/lifestyle/li... #speirgorm

Because of course

Banning books is one of the first things oppressive regimes do. Buy banned books. Gift banned books bannedbooksweek.org/slide/banned...

Palantir was awarded the £330m contract to build a “new operating system” for the NHS in 2023. “The firm founded by Trump donor Peter Thiel works closely with US military and immigration enforcement and has a deal with Israel to support “war-related missions”.

Watched rioters live on tv. Keeping a digital copy for posterity. #NeverForget #J6ersGuiltyAsSin

Israeli government has nowhere to hide from dehumanizing treatment of humanitarian Gaza flotilla. I hope the Irish government takes aporopriate action. www.rte.ie/news/ireland...

We might find ourselves invaded from abroad for the sake of science.

Would love to see something similar along the #NapervilleRiverWalk What a wonderful idea for midwestern towns lucky enough to have a river amenity. @napervillesun.bsky.social @naperenvironment.bsky.social all-things-nordic.com/2026/03/05/d...

Watched it live, voting against ANYONE who uses my money to fund these insurrectionists. Likewise, spending my dollars “wisely”

See what can be achieved when your representatives work for you instead of donors.

Feels like going on a diet where the goalposts keep changing. Streamers, Tech brands, certain retailers and now loss of respect for Cuban….

1. On March 11, Trump toured a Thermo Fisher Scientific facility in Ohio and repeatedly praised the company. On *the same day* Trump bought between $15,000 and $50,000 of Thermo Fisher stock. The purchase was "UNSOLICITED," meaning it was requested by the customer, not recommended by an advisor.

#wordiftheday A “ Desecrat” Someone who desecrates, seeks to damage, defile, or treat a sacred or highly respected place or object with violent disrespect.

Even with sound and captions off the comparison is stark. Empathy and respect. 💙

The Trump admin tried to use an unrelated White House engineering contract to quietly start construction on Trump’s personal “Triumphal Arch” skipping competitive public bidding altogether. The arch isn’t on White House grounds. It’s on NPS land near Arlington National Cemetery, over a mile away.

“If money changed hands for a pardon, that isn’t clemency. That’s a bribe. And a pardon issued as a product of corruption can be challenged in court—potentially voided entirely. No court has ever thrown out a presidential pardon for corruption”. Collect the evidence, use the tools we have!

Hadn’t heard this song before, but it somehow feels apt. youtube.com/watch?v=XfzJ... Hope @timmiller.bsky.social or @podsaveamerica.crooked.com gives it some air time.

True!

The fibre optic cable is to land in Ireland at Owenahincha in west Cork and it is part of the multimillion-euro 'Fastnet' transatlantic underwater fibre optic cable connecting Ireland and the US that Amazon Web Services is aiming to have operating by 2028.

Excellent, laugh out loud. Kevin obviously needs better researchers 🤭

Waste and more waste for structures that will be removed in the coming years. (won’t vote for any candidate willing to keep them)

J6’ers have history and it’s not political activism. Sex with under 13 yr olds, Animal cruelty - cat in a blender, beating dogs, beastiality, kiddie porn. Pled guilty, in prison, off our streets but they were pardoned. So, coming to a street near you, I guess. open.spotify.com/episode/2s7n...

NEW: We @immcouncil.org just put out our vision for what an interior immigration enforcement system might look like in the future; how to restore credibility and humanity to immigration enforcement. Check this out for a comprehensive dive into what a better system can look like.

First college pickup completed yesterday. The 3hr drive there shortened by the enjoyable @bloodyscotland.bsky.social podcast. New talents publishing and backstories to other favorite authors featured on the pod. Round two next week. Thankfully there’s a back catalogue. #roadtrip

American Citizen kidnapping update…

@chicagosinfonietta.bsky.social glorious Miles Davis tribute last night (Seth Pae) and American Rhapsody. Saddened to hear of the need for Strategic Renewal. “Is ceol na rudaí a thiteann amach an ceol is áille ar fad" (The most beautiful music of all is the music of what happens)

Looking forward to all the karma heading their way.

I would like reporters to ask both Vance & Rubio a question on my behalf. Will you continue to call women who ask you questions “bitches” If they sidestep the question then why do you consider women “Bitches” They represent the president in an official capacity so they are also complicit.

NEW: @annabower.bsky.social at @lawfaremedia.org has published the Fulton County grand jury transcripts in the criminal case against Trump for conspiring to overthrow the 2020 election. This is the first time they've been published. You can read them here: www.lawfaremedia.org/projects-ser...

In light of last night’s debate, I’m re-upping this post about a governor candidate who is polling embarrassingly high for a white nationalist in the majority-minority state of California. Do folks not realize how dangerous Chad Bianco is?
