it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions "Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

BREAKING: A federal judge says L.A.-based US attorney Bill ESSAYLI has been acting in the role unlawfully since July, declaring him disqualified from the position. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Democrats are right.

BREAKING: Live munitions from a Trump-Vance “military demo” flew over I-5 and struck a CHP vehicle. The White House wanted the highway open—but Gov. Newsom shut it down for safety. That decision likely prevented injuries or worse. We have obtained these photos:

To those in the streets: Your footsteps are not requests— they’re demands carved into pavement. You do not whisper—you roar for the silenced, the stolen, the ignored. No kings, no crowns— only the fury of people done kneeling. Let the ground remember every step and let power tremble at your march.

Oooooooo. Trigger warning. Dead body.

JUST IN: Judge Xinis in Kilmar Abrego Garcia's case orders that once he is released from custody in his pending federal criminal case in Tennessee, that the Trump Administration "SHALL NOT" take him into custody and that includes ICE. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The effects of Covid in pregnancy are devastating and preventable by vaccination; now we have strong data from Penn Medicine that vaccines protect children and adolescents from long Covid

In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows: An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

On left: Alito says SCOTUS didn't need to act because DOJ's Ensign informed Boasberg no deportation planes were "then planned" for Saturday Then planned. Hmmm. On right: Ensign actually informed Boasberg, "I’ve also been told to say they reserve the right to remove people tomorrow" (Saturday)

DEI for dummies

Already going after Lutherans eh? Seems bad for Catholics, huh? It reminds me of a poem I’ve heard.

When I watched The Purge & The Handmaid’s Tale, I was horrified. Discovering the right wing “Conservative Christians“ saw it as a model for the United States is sickening.

Intelligence officials are starting to leak to me now too. Here’s a memo Defense Intelligence Agency personnel received instructing them to suspend observances including: - Holocaust Remembrance Day - MLK Day - Juneteenth

I've compiled a list of every Democratic Congressional Representative and US Senator I could find on Bluesky. If you know of others that I haven't listed, please let me know so I can add them. I included must-follow activists, too. Let's follow all & amplify their voices. go.bsky.app/Bn879St

I’m going to start writing Boiling Frog Skeets: BFS #1: It is not normal for a President to fire an FBI Director who hasn’t done anything wrong #BoilingFrogSkeets

Our Christmas tree farm is done for the season. The trees our friends and family have cut are being decorated and we’re already booking replacements and caring for next year. We’re wishing a Merry Christmas and productive New Year to you.

If you need evidence that something is horribly rigged in our mass media, here you go.

Kash Patel has the very Trumpian quality of having done so many different horrifying/disqualifying things that some of them go under the radar. For instance, this little tidbit about how Patel straight up lied to the Pentagon during a hostage rescue operation and put everyone involved in danger.

Hi, BlueSky! My name is Bayly Hoehne. I’m 17 years old and the Chief of Staff at @votersoftomorrow.org I’m working to make sure my friends and peers are registered to vote and ready to stand up to Donald Trump. Can you repost and follow to help me reach others?

You better believe it! The purge of women from our armed forces will weaken our national defense. It is profoundly small minded. Defense Secretary Austin says women in military 'make us stronger' www.nbcnews.com/news/militar...

We are on @bsky.app. Please consider following @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social where every day we commemorate the victims & educate about the tragic human history of Auschwitz. Repost please.

The Handmaid's Tale is a good book. But did you know that there's a book written by a Black woman about a post-apocalyptic Earth heavily affected by climate change and societal decline. The book was published in 1993, but is set in 2024 following a presidential election 👀 #BookSky #BlackBookSky

@maryltrump.bsky.social is here!

Hey @marcelias.bsky.social don’t you think @girlsreallyrule.bsky.social would be amazing on your starter pack? I do.

I deactivated Twitter and I’m not sorry. Full moon at sunrise on our Christmas Tree Farm.

Like and reskeet if you ever drink water real slow to savour the taste, or if you think the time to start running BMWs off the road has begun

CNN’s @kaitlancollins: “Does the house investigation (into Matt Gaetz for allegedly sleeping with a 17yo) give you any pause?” @SenatorHagerty: “I’m not familiar with it.” 🤔 Still doing this even after not getting picked? Here, Bill, let us help: www.newsweek.com/matt-gaetz-s...

If this is what Elon did to the valuation of Twitter just wait till he gets his hands on the U.S. Government.

*Now* we know why Gaetz resigned from Congress.

rare to have a social network where the CEO isn't the main character and we'd like to keep it that way but for the record, @jay.bsky.team is the CEO of bluesky, jack dorsey is no longer on the board and he owns 0% of the company
