🧵Former Special Counsel Jack Smith hasn't backed down for taking the appropriate actions to hold the most powerful man accountable, for destroying the constitution. As a country, we cannot become numb and normalize what is going on in the U.S. and globally. #JackSmith

Former President Obama continues to display leadership, compassion and authenticity! 💖✨ Merry Christmas sir! @barackobama.bsky.social

Is this a good time to remind everyone that Trump flew to 2024 campaign events on Jeffrey Epstein's plane? Apparently, his own jet had mechanical issues. How did he gain access to this particular plane? #EpsteinFiles www.aspendailynews.com/news/why-tru...

It's not surprising that the so-called president of the U.S. did not mention this current disaster happening in our country, while addressing the nation last night. The malignant narcissist is unfit to serve this great nation and he probably would have found a way to make it about himself.

During former special counsel Jack Smith's testimony before the HJC, Chair Jordan was reminded he is on record for calling Trump the morning of J6. Jordan was also, one of the 147 R's who voted to overturn the 2020 election. Those reps have yet to be held accountable for violating their oath.

When trump was 40 he wasn’t in as good of shape as Obama is now

Minneapolis Police Chef - Brian O'Hara's statement should be echoed by every single police chef in the country! 🔥🔥🔥 Law enforcement has a duty to protect the people against the illegal activities of an armed militia and not assist them. Period.

Truth! 💯

Twitter X, far from being the groundbreaking medium that initially made information accessible to the greatest possible number of people, has in recent years become an impressive tool for destroying our democracies. Thank you for everything 💙💛🩵 @markhamillofficial.bsky.social @sundaedivine.lol 1/3🧵

U.S. farmer Chris Gibbs accurately describes what the farmer's bailout is actually doing.

NYT Opinion post outlines the trajectory for the U.S. and it doesn't look promising.

More of this !!

In South Minneapolis, Minnesota, nearly two dozen neighbors confronted and surrounded ICE goons after rapid-response alerts were issued. The goons were questioning an East African man when the situation escalated, and they eventually left the area without making any arrests.

Inside ICE Detention: Stripped, Shackled, Starved Overcrowded facilities, poor medical care, and deaths in custody. Systematic violations of civil and constitutional rights. What are you still waiting for, America? ICE continues to kidnap people & use violent tactics! Thread 1/2🧵

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

I stand with Senator Kelly!!

"Si vis pacem, para bellum" If you want peace, prepare for war. Putin wants to destroy Ukraine as a nation with its own history. When a nation is deprived of its history and collective memory, it becomes vulnerable to absorption by another nation. Wake up! 🇺🇸🇪🇺 #MakeRussiaPay Thread 1/5🧵

🚨Trigger Warning🚨 Men preying on women isn’t “flirting.” It’s not “attention.” It’s abuse. Misogyny doesn’t hide itself anymore it walks right out in the open. And we name it Predatory. We confront it! We refuse to normalize it ever!

Former pardon attorney Liz Oyer explains the seriousness of Trump's pardon for one of the largest foreign drug traffickers in the WORLD! Trump cannot say he wants to stop drugs while, letting the most notorious criminals go free.

Sen. Mark Kelly demonstrates tremendous courage and tenacity as he speaks the truth about the illegitimate occupant in the Oval Office. 🔥🔥🔥 #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace

President Biden - never stopped being presidential even after going through cancer treatment, showing great leadership and stamina. The felon couldn't be bothered being presidential, is destroying our country and pardons criminals like himself.

Peaceful demonstrations after elections are necessary for transitions away from authoritarianism 🇬🇪Protests continue & will continue until we win against this unjust, corrupt, pro-🇷🇺 regime. “IF THEY ARREST US, LET THEM ARREST US TOGETHER.” Ukraine, we stand with you 🇬🇪🇪🇺🇺🇦 Continuous resistance 1️⃣year

A time for reflection and gratitude! 🤎🧡💛

This regime is reporting the "shooting" was within a few blocks from the White House. Trump is no where near the WH right now and has left to play golf at MAL. Fortunately, no one was killed, bringing in 500 troops to DC is not the answer when they shouldn't be there in the first place.

World is not staying silent: people across the globe are taking to the streets! London, Helsinki, Stuttgart, Stockholm, Prague, Brussels, Oslo, Lots of Cities in USA – all are against '28 step capitulation plan' #UnitedAgainstTyranny STAND WITH UKRAINE 💙💛 Hans Zimmer - Time Orchestra Version🎼 1/3

What many of us already suspected has been confirmed. Many MAGA accounts on X are actually foreign actors, using propaganda to divide Americans by using fake accounts.

Impeach and remove this illegitimate president along, with the entire regime. It's well past time!!!

Pretty sure, this intelligent and competent woman would NOT have: 💥militarized the NG and illegal ICE 💥bombed Venezuelan boats 💥invited a Saudi murdered to the WH 💥would NOT have destroyed the WH 💥been in the Epstein files 💥called for death of officials But her laugh...

Journalist Michael Wolff and Jeffrey Epstein has a relationship for decades and they were working on an expose involving Trump. Epstein went to prison during Trump's first administration, AG - Bill Barr visited his cell and shortly, after Epstein committed "suicide" while cameras were turned off.

Rep. Eugene Vindman addressing an extremely pertinent issue. Please take a few minutes to listen. @gene4va.bsky.social thank you, for your courage!

Senator Slotkin - we are not in normal times. Treating Trump as a normal president* is a mistake, while he does not adhere to the Constitutional oath nor The Rule of Law. Please, be safe!

These posters started popping up ahead of next week’s We Ain’t Buying It boycott. From Nov 27 - Dec 1, folks are stepping back from corporate chains like Target, Home Depot, and Amazon. People are done being squeezed, so they are using the leverage of their wallets 💥

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

If you're in or near the Philadelphia area, there's an ICE protest today. Show them that Philly will not stand for abductions at the courthouse! Also of note, Philadelphia Sheriff's Dept is NOT cooperating with ICE. PCJC 1301 Filbert St 12pm #DefendersOfDemocracy 🎁🔗: share.inquirer.com/hkYdiA

Why did the WH arrange for the release of the Tate Brothers who were detained in Romania awaiting trial for alleged sex trafficking in the UK, Romania and the US? Did they have something on their devices which implicates Trump? Asking for a friend...
