Donald Trump thinks that bullying Greenland and Europe shows that the United States is strong. It doesn't. It shows the world that the United States is weak.

What kind of a country are we in where POTUS is calling for Members of Congress to be executed, bc they're urging military servicemembers to uphold their oath to the US Constitution & to refuse illegal orders, as they're required to do? See the video at this link: www.instagram.com/reel/DRNyGhm...

Instead of making healthcare more affordable for Americans, Trump and GOP Congressmembers are prioritizing sending $20 billion to support Argentina. I guess this is MAGA... Make Argentina Great Again.

To protect fair maps, women's reproductive rights, and to fight for fair funding of public schools, VOTE YES on ALL Judge retentions in Pennsylvania this fall election. @padems.org

“This show is not important. What’s important is that we live in a country that allows us to have a show like this." - Jimmy Kimmel

It's not just prominent public figures like MN legislator Melissa Hortman & Charlie Kirk who are victims of political violence, but everyday folks are too: the 11 Jews murdered at a Pittsburgh synagogue, the 23 Latinos murdered at an El Paso WalMart, etc. Everyone's put at risk.

Is the US becoming more and more like China with each passing day? Another case in point: the nationalization of private business like Intel using public taxpayer dollars (can we say socialism?)

Democracy is alive in Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh is mad. Seems like a lot of the country is. Photo credit: Hands Off! Pittsburgh protest organizers

The devastation being done to Americans' retirement accounts, the US economy, and American jobs is heart-breaking. Trump, Musk, & the GOP own all of this.

Pennsylvania - let's follow Wisconsin's lead this coming Nov election, and show Musk and the nation that our Supreme Court is NOT for sale, no matter how many millions he spends here.

A Black man using his voice to defend democracy, where a segregationist once used his to block civil rights. Senator Cory Booker has just made history, breaking Strom Thurmond’s record for the longest filibuster in Senate history.

Unite PAC, @paworkingfamilies.bsky.social , Pennsylvania United, Alliance for Police Accountability, Straight Ahead, OnePA, and 1Hood Power present our jointly endorsed slate of judicial candidates for the Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas primary election on May 20th. #VoteforJustice

Breaking News! A HUGE UPSET and victory as Democrats showed up and flipped a seat Republicans have held for over 46 years and Trump won by over 20 points in 2024. 🫳🏼🎤 One race at a time we are going to take back our country. LFG!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

If you defend oppression, you can no longer be a beacon for freedom.

Thank you to Gov Shapiro for standing up for freedom & lower-case "d" democratic values - core tenets of what the US has embraced throughout its history. Thank you for standing with the people of Ukraine & with Ukrainian-Americans, whose lives have been destroyed by Vladimir Putin.

Governor Shapiro gets $hit done for Pennsylvanians even as Donald Trump and GOP PA Attorney General Dave Sunday try hard - in violation of the law, no less - to hurt Pennsylvanians.

Some in the GOP aren't happy. CNN: McCormick (Georgia's 7th Congressional District), was asked about the firings of hundreds of workers at the Atlanta-based CDC: “Why is a supposedly conservative party taking such a radical and extremist and sloppy approach to this?” www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

@joshshapiropa.bsky.social is taking legal action to protect Pennsylvanians while GOP Attorney General @davesunday.bsky.social refuses to do so. Thank you, Governor Shapiro.

Musk's & Trump's NIH cuts will decimate jobs & the economies of Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, and Pennsylvania. Call or write McCormick & Fetterman.

The US occupying Gaza is a VERY BAD idea.

Couldn't be more excited about Alyssa Cowan being appointed to the Allegheny County Common Pleas bench! She still has to run for the full term in the May 20th primary election, so let's be sure to VOTE to KEEP JUDGE COWAN! votecowan.com

Trade War Trump

Pete Hegseth was so “abusive” toward his second wife that she hid from him in a closet and had a safe word to call for help. Danielle Diettrich Hegseth, an ex-sister-in-law of Pete Hegseth, has submitted a sworn statement to senators that accuses him of chronic alcohol abuse and “erratic,”…

Some truly sad news this evening, with the passing of PA State Rep. Matt Gergely. Will be thinking of his family. May Rep. Gergely rest in peace. www.wtae.com/article/penn...

The utter lack of qualifications and experience is beyond embarrassing. Not that they care.

Allegheny County: Alyssa Cowan is a social worker by background (MSW) & has spent her 20+ year legal career fighting for children & families, incl foster kids & kids who sadly have been abused. Highly Recommended by the ACBA. VOTE Alyssa Cowan for Common Pleas Judge! votecowan.com

Might SCOTUS repeal Obergefell, ending nation-wide marriage equality, just like they repealed Roe, ending nation-wide abortion access? States would decide on marriage equality. Yet another reason to vote YES to retain ALL 3 Dem PA Supreme Court Justices in 2025. www.advocate.com/politics/ida...

The NC GOP is about to literally steal a seat on the NC Supreme Court after the Dem narrowly won elections last fall. Pennsylvania: this is our future if we let the GOP get the Supreme Court majority here. Vote YES to retain ALL 3 PA Supreme Court justices in 2025. www.nbcnews.com/politics/ele...

Built by Jimmy Carter ❤️

Jeffries: In our nation's history, 25% of our nation's debt was accumulated during the four years of the former president, 25%. How dare you lecture America about fiscal responsibility ever.

Hey Pennsylvania: retaining a Dem majority on the PA Supreme Court in '25 is super important for protecting our rights & freedoms, esp given full GOP control of federal govt. Be sure to vote YES to retain all 3 PA Supreme Court justices next year, along w/PA Commonwealth & Superior Court judges.

From @gregsargent.bsky.social, a depressing window on Trump's border and tariff threats to Mexico and his plans to blow up Biden diplomacy and policies that has eased the problems Trump is lying, bullying and posturing about. Please keep it up, President Sheinbaum. newrepublic.com/article/1888...

Good. It’s horrific how other platforms abused their reach to strangle local, independent, and national outlets alike. I WANT to see news and actual vetted work and I WANT journalists to get rewarded for it. Because I want to live in a thinking human world over some AI generated slop dystopia

Assuming the current US House results hold, we will have a 220-215 GOP majority and a swing of 3,745 votes in the 3 closest GOP wins would have given Dems control of the House.

So let me get this straight. If you apply for a job at a grocery store, you have to undergo a background check. But, if you apply to be Director of National Intelligence, you don't? Got it.

I don’t think a United States senator saying this should be taken lightly

The majority of Americans don't like inflation, yet the majority of Americans also are pro-tariffs.

“Transgender Day of Remembrance seeks to highlight the losses we face due to anti-transgender bigotry and violence…With so many seeking to erase transgender people…it is vitally important that those we lose are remembered, and that we continue to fight for justice.”–TDOR founder Gwendolyn Ann Smith🏳️‍⚧️

Teen births in Texas rose for the first time in 15 years. What will happen with poverty rates and maternal mortality rates there and in other states with abortion bans too?

Welcome to these skies, Sean

Would love to hear from a Republican worried about food or housing costs how exactly deporting 10 million people who grow and pick our food and build our houses is going to lower food or housing costs.

At this point, democrats have to concentrate on stopping the ones that will do the most damage. Forget the distraction nominees. Focus on the serious threats. Gaetz, Gabbard and Hegseth remain the most problematic.

There is only one right thing to do.

Went to the mall yesterday. Haven't seen a shopping mall this packed since prob 1997. Had to follow a shopper walking back to their car to park. Folks were Lulu-Lemoning, Building their Bears at that Workshop & restocking their Baths for their Bodyworks. The disposable income is being disposed of.

Whipped up this starter pack of Pittsburgh journos last night. By all means suggest additions and use as is helpful go.bsky.app/P559uGc

The American public and the Senate Judiciary Committee deserve to see the Matt Gaetz report. Repost if you agree.
