Signs point to US war in Venezuela. Install right wing regime? How has that turned out in the past? History shows US has track record of propping up corrupt dictators, revolts & civil wars, & poverty leading to northward migration after these coups in LA countries. theintercept.com/2025/11/25/t...

@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social is this from 2021/22 when the entire GOP pressured Biden admin to bring all Afghan people to US who were left behind & who had worked w & helped our military during the forever war in Afghanistan?

With DC shooter now identified as an Afghan national not the antifa secret agent White House hoped for a good time to remember the Trump admin has gutted domestic anti-terrorism capacity and reassigned many to finding grandmothers to arrest at immigration hearings.

"Look, the Fed can do a lot of things, but what it can't do is lower the price of imports. It can't make it so there are more workers for California farmers to help pick the crops." These are self-inflicted supply shocks, and the Fed can't magically undo them. (The White House can.)

Wouldn't it be so much better IF, instead of ins cos making billions & denying needed care, there was some non-profit type sys allowing everyone to get the care they need w/o going bankrupt? How is it every other 1st world country has figured this out? 🤔 worldpopulationreview.com/country-rank...

How to keep the peaceful resistance energy going 🌊 Stay engaged and involved. Call your governor, senators, and representatives and demand protections for immigrants, educators, libraries, and the press. Attend local community meetings. Attend school board or city council meetings. 🧵 1/5

Tide turned in my #Houston suburb: "Pro-public school" candidates supporting sep of church/state in schools ousted incumbents on Cy-Fair ISD #school board, sending strong message: residents of 3rd-largest dist in TX are rejecting far-right ideology in classroom. www.houstonpress.com/news/progres...

Anyone debating between traditional Medicare & Medicare Advantage right now or in the near future, watch this first. Also most folks I know who opted for Medicare Advantage now regret it. Things John O. points out here about MA are the complaints I've heard from friends & family. #Medicare

The carved plaque w FDR quote was NEVER at the East Wing of the White House. It has always been & still is at the FDR monument a mile away from the WH. This post is FALSE. Misinformation. @patti3333.bsky.social please delete your post & don't add to the misinformation & lies from trump & the right.

Well, the Board of Trustees 9f RRPFI includes: Elaine L. Chao Lachlan Murdoch Peggy Noonan Paul D. Ryan Condoleezza Rice So, take its statement w a grain of sand. I listened to the entire address. Nothing in the ad was taken out of context or edited to change its meaning. It is an unedited excerpt.

#trumpShutdown #GOPshutdown #ACAsubsidies #ContactYourSenators I contacted my Sens & House Rep urging them to Pass a CR to Reopen the govt that includes an Extension of the Enhanced ACA Tax Credits & Restores Medicaid cuts that'll decimate rural hospitals. I used democracy.io. Letter in comments.

So, there's no evidence to present to a court of law to prosecute these 2 survivors or the 2 dead as #narcoterrorists or that there were drugs aboard. IOW, these were murders perpetrated by the US military on the orders of Hegseth, Miller and trump. #SayNoToFascism #NoKings #tyranny #illegalOrders

Can someone please ask 41 year old Vance if he's a kid, a young boy who does stupid things? At least 2 of the MEN in the chat are 40 and the WOMAN who said she wants to see people burn is 28 w a master's degree. These aren't kids.

@housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov take @tarasetmayer.bsky.social's advice. Explain in plain language: Republicans' #shutdown makes clear they don't care abt all Americans! How dare Republicans in charge hold hostage Americans' healthcare & jobs for Trump’s war of retribution. 👇

Argentina's corrupt govt to get $20B bailout with trump's tariff tax on American consumers. This was orchestrated by Treasury Sec Bessent's hedge fund buddy who stands to make billions at Americans' expense. Let that sink in. #argentina #bailout #trumptarifftax www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

So, a new war or another Latin American regime change? How many times has the US done that (mostly to promote American imperialism & Business interests) in Latin Amer countries ? Did we not learn from our historical failures which, btw, led to a lot of migration to the US from countries we failed?

We have to make it to the #midterms & we have to retake the House & Senate. We must shut this sh*t show down & take back our country; right this ship. There's no other choice. We must continue to #resist this lawless, hate-filled, authoritarian regime. We must do it! #SayNoToFascism #impeachdjt

This moment is disturbing even in the mundane: I’ve started taking screenshots of historical sources I’m using in research from the national park service, the smithsonian, and the national archives, just in case they get taken down. It’s now a part of my process and takes time I have to plan for.

No Disney vacay or streaming, but I am changing the chan tho my 5 fave primetime drama/news progs, local/nat'l news & HOU Texans all air on ABC. Advertisers who support #Disney #ABC #ESPN will also be boycotted if I can determine which cos. are included. I stand w Jimmy Kimmel & the 1st Amendment.

Disgraceful, unprofessional & abusive conduct brought to you by unqualified US ICE "agents" as they attack an 80 yr old US citizen & business owner simply trying to get answers regarding employees being apprehended.

Great idea for everyone canceling Disney, ESPN, Hulu, Paramount & Changing the channel on your local ABC, Fox, CBS affiliates. Support your local PBS & NPR stations with your savings from canceling the capitulaters.

The threat to #ABC from the #FCC head was absolutely illegal conduct. Please, join me in contacting ABC to let the co. know that what they did w/o more than an illegal threat from the FCC was cowardly & wrong. Maybe enough push back will get them to change course. support.abc.com/hc/en-us

This is why they’re deleting studies

Congressional Republicans have focused a lot more on fentanyl in official constituent communications than Democrats have over the past 9 years.

One party uses the word "evil," (as do trump & Vance), quite a bit to describe everything & everyone else.

Ok, y'all, B4 shooter known, unnamed ATF source sd engraved casings indicate "trans ideology." But Cox reads on TV what's on casings, it's RW groyper/gamer phrases. Uh oh, no trans angle.

In the Gettysburg Address, Lincoln asked ppl to recommit to “the unfinished work” of preserving a nation “conceived in liberty & dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.” It seems Sen. Schmitt, like many national conservatives, believes this work has already gone too far.
