This is why we call them fascists.

America is on death's door thanks to our insanely small attention spans. Trump signs a Hitler era executive order and it's immediately forgotten because Comey gets charged.. some could argue they go together but reality is his executive order is a faster means to an end to the resistance.

I am not a big podcast person, but I really recommend checking out Steven Burns "Alive." His conversations thus far have really made me think, and even hope a little bit more for humanity. youtu.be/qR6Kkp8P-Tk?...

This is insane to me. Trump's entire Schtick was America First... So why is he bailing out Argentina when there are millions of people here who could use that money instead! bsky.app/profile/more...

They can't afford to get sued again for defamation. 😂

I understand this point, but I don't think dismissing our feelings is helpful either. There are many of us who have been trying to fight/support the Dems for an entire DECADE now.. and its led to nothing but disappointment and heartbreak. There's no right way to feel about what's going on.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption. Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow. People have power. Ask Target

I really need the independent journalists out there to find another platform other than #Substack, because it's owned by these same Maga folks who are destroying this country.

This!!

So are we going to start getting serious with boycotting? Or we giving up?

Everyone should be held to the same standards.

I often think that 100 years from now, this period in history will be remembered as a truly dark age because grace and decency are being erased.

Very important thread. I feel like too many have lost touch with reality.

The real question is, will the MSM let him lie this away.. or will they grow a spine and fight?

I hope all the maga women out there are proud of themselves..

It's truly shameful what the business world is doing. We as consumers need to seriously stop spending money with any of these companies if we actually expect anything to change.

*Screams from the rafters* We struggle with health issues because we DON'T HAVE UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE!!! God help us.

Fuck Nate Silver and his Nazi friends. X is filled with nothing but bots or fascists. Here on Bluesky we actually have real folks and real conversations.

Enjoy it while it lasts.. I fear we won't have these much longer.

Heart breaking. 😫

Everyone should share this every single day until the madness ends. It's our own tax dollars being thrown into those damn garbage bags.

Words cannot adequately describe what a colossal disappointment our mainstream media has been during our slow descent into authoritarianism.

Feeling all sorts of anxiety and depression today.. from world news to personal today is just a bad day. The only bright spot was my new role at work started today and I much enjoyed it. Work being the brightest spot of my day though feels oddly depressing.

Newsom has rubbed me the wrong way more than once, but what he's doing here is EXACTLY what the democrats in Congress have been utterly failing to do. Talk tough and then actually DO SOMETHING. Even its just withholding votes on all bills. Every action freaking matters.

I’ve been saying this for years now. 96% of donations made via Blue26.org go DIRECTLY to the SPECIFIC candidates listed. The other 4% is for the credit card processing fee. NONE goes to me unless you SPECIFICALLY choose to throw a tip my way AFTER you complete your donation to the candidates.

They have downgraded her sex offender status to move her to a minimum security facility. The next logical step is a commutation or a pardon. If you have any information on that, my Signal is in my bio. I'll keep you anonymous as always. Please share widely 🙏 www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

Seriously?! What the fuck!

This is awesome!

Dems. Wanna get your polling out of the gutter? Stop talking about redrawing house maps in blue states and do it. Go big. Don't match them seat for seat. Blow them out of the water. Then endorse Mamdani. You're welcome. Love, Allison

Just watched the #SouthPark episode as I still have paramount until the Star Trek season ends... Holy, holy freaking cow. That ending was just.. wow. I can see why the conservatives may be mad but they freaking deserve it.

Is it wrong that when I see a cancer go fund me page being shared... That I feel no sympathy for these folks anymore? They chose to vote for lawmakers who refused to support healthcare and research!!

This right here shows how scared the oligarchs are of a government actually caring about it people! Everyone against the oligarchy must get behind @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social including all of the @thedemcoalition.bsky.social! @kenmartin.bsky.social support the candidate!! bsky.app/profile/news...

Learning more about how much the " no taxes on OT" was mostly a scam. Taxes continue to be deducted as normal, as the law as written only applies as a tax deduction. So you have to file taxes to receive your money back later. There is no "money back in workers pockets now."

Holy cow!! Democrats need to take advantage of GOP stupidity here! Start talking about climate change from the fossil fuel industry as if they are doing this kinda garbage here and we can possibly still save the world from climate change because these fools just need it in conspiratorial form.

Shame on all of them!

"Unexpectedly" my freaking ass. Who wrote this? Economists have been predicting a decline for months, and it's finally come because of the endless political uncertainty Trump brings. share.google/Bz2J9Yr5jUZV...

Just feeling real down today. While I did keep up with the news of the big ugly bill passing in the Senate, that just really compounded my feelings. Life is just so damn hard and these things happening in the world make it so much harder than it needs to be. I wish we could all just work together.

Sadly freaking accurate. @kenmartin.bsky.social You need to do better at getting Democrats to support each other.

I would really love to see cost data/analysis on how much this shit it costing tax payers. Maha claimed they didn't want tax dollars going to migrants, but building these facilities are probably costing us more money than leaving them alone where they contributed to society!

I think that the outcome in the NY Mayoral race and the Wisconsin Supreme Court race both show that people power CAN beat the political money machine. That should give us all hope, and the motivation to work for the government we want.

Reminder - Tomorrow is your LAST CHANCE to vote in the NYC primary for mayor! If you want a New York City that is livable and affordable for everyone, not just billionaires: ✅ Rank Zohran Mamdani #1 ✅ Don't leave any empty slots, rank 5 candidates ✅ DON'T RANK CUOMO!!!

This is what misinformation does to people's brains. Complete alteration/rewriting of fact.

What the hell is it going to take for the democrats in Congress to fucking fight back? This woman is DEAD now. STOP fucking voting for ANYTHING!! I'm so freaking pissed and they share fucking blame here. bsky.app/profile/theb...

I know we got a lot going on but this is TERRIFYING. Children's lives are in serious danger if Tesla is allowed to proceed. We really need to get this on lawmakers radars and stop this!!! @kim.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov please do something! bsky.app/profile/carl...

This!!

This, this, and THIS! And frankly the Democrats currently serving need to be speaking this, on every TV show, podcast and etc that they can get on. The media is turning right because Democrats are doing NOTHING to combat the narratives being spun by the right.

Wise words!

This is right here. If CA is going to stop Trump, they must fill the streets.

It is extremely disturbing that the lawmakers that are supposed to work for us-the people, are talking about siding with Elon or Trump, rather than speaking to the people in their districts and states on what we actually want!

I am so frustrated and terrified now that they are limiting the COVID vaccine. This administration has no regard for health. I am hoping folks like @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social and @drericding.bsky.social can give us actual guidance and any recommendations to help access it. bsky.app/profile/atru...
