The excessive force being used by Trump's agents in Chicago is unacceptable. From tear gassing peaceful protestors to violently arresting U.S. citizens— Enough is enough. I'm calling for an investigation into all uses of force by agents involved in "Operation Midway Blitz".

The totally insane northern lights last night in Lofoten, Norway

Our Afghan allies stood shoulder to shoulder with our troops, risking their lives for our country. Turning our backs on them now would be a betrayal of our values. We must pass my bill, the Fulfilling Promises to Afghan Allies Act, and keep our word. www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

Trump is a fraudster, so it perfectly tracks that he would think another fraudster that got caught and sent to jail was "horribly treated." Republicans are screaming at you who they are, believe them. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

This is what Ukraine is fighting. This is what a war torn country looks like. Send more ammo to defend their democracy! #slavaukraini #heroyamslava #russiaisaterroriststate

Padilla: It’s not just undocumented folks who are being detained and arrested. It’s legal immigrants—even US citizens. We know of at least 170 US citizens who have been caught up in these raids and put in detention centers. It’s the intended effect of this administration to stoke fear and terror

ICE thugs stormed a local swap meet up in CHICAGO with the intent of intimidating vendors & patrons. They didn’t expect intimidation in return. RESIST CHICAGO✊

Don't mean nothing. (IYKYK.)

Not a drag queen, not LGBTQ, not an immigrant, not a BIPOC. Just another wyte Republican dude.

History doesn't repeat - though it rhymes... In the late 1930s, Stalin’s Great Purge decimated the Red Army’s leadership—over 35,000 officers were executed or imprisoned, including three of five marshals. Driven by paranoia, Stalin erased his most capable commanders.

Important: Sen Chris Murphy just sent pointed questions to Kristi Noem about DHS's account of shooting of US citizen by Trump's paramilitary forces in Chicago. The official line is imploding. Murphy wants Noem to explain why DHS misled. More like this, Ds. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/2019...

"Technologies purchased by ICE in recent weeks include spyware that can hack into smartphones remotely and cellphone location software that can enable the tracking of a phone’s movements without a court warrant..." www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

A comfy kitty. Narvik is snuggled against my arm. #cats #catsofbluesky

It's important for you to know that Republicans have been turning these depraved adults loose on your kids in high school and college for years now. I warned people constantly about Turning Point USA and the 30+ year old creep Charlie Jerk that was hanging around them.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today. We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

Cut waste, they say—as they gut health care for families in the name of saving money, then turn around, fund tax cuts for billionaires and pour millions of taxpayer dollars into ad campaigns.   Make it make sense.

X is like the hadron collider trying to crack open dimensions of racism that were hitherto only theorized

Did President Putin say anything about *your* involvement with children, dear?

Fully corrupt SCOTUS to dismantle Voting Rights Act to steal 20+ House seats so a 34x convicted white supremacist felon can retain House majority by silencing Black voters (left). The chief architect of white power & sexual predator (right).

My cat would have tore my arm apart to get to a tortilla.

Catty cake 🙌🐾

I thought they were "men" not "snowflakes".

On this Wear Purple Day, @demwomencaucus.bsky.social stands united to support survivors of domestic violence. DV is not just “a fight between a man and wife,” like President Trump implied, it’s a public health issue that must be addressed at the federal level.

Never forget, Republicans are cutting student lunches, Medicaid, Healthcare, SNAP - Nutrition Assistance programs! Make Argentina Great Again!

Those aren't kids. Those are grown ass adults. Stop with the gaslighting.

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos." factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com....

Today I'm making my 999th and 1,000th posts since joining Bluesky last November. For #999, I choose my kitty Narvik in morning sunshine. #cats #catsofbluesky

No punches pulled! 👊🏽

Are those pages and pages of a concept of an idea?

Rachel Is Absolutely 💯 Correct !

JB Pritzker blasts ICE and CBP in Chicago, Illinois: "Tables will turn someday"

Ukrainians say, “Bread is the head of everything,” and treat it with deep respect. The recipes and flavors of bread vary not only from region to region, but even between neighboring villages—that’s how deeply rooted this tradition is. 🧵 1/12

In her cozy spot by the window

The Civil Rights Movement was not counted just by how many showed up for protests, but by also how many were lynched, shot dead in their driveway, tortured, killed and then a tire wheel chained to the bodies that were thrown in nearby waterways.

We want our representative to be sworn in so that she can start doing work for her constituents. Baja AZ has the right to representation!

Nothing Christian about Mike "Little" Johnson defending Cory Mills.

Today I'm making my 999th and 1,000th posts since joining Bluesky. For #1,000, I chose this scene from the Blackfeet Reservation, east of Glacier National Park. My thanks to the fine photographers (and cat people) at Bluesky who give me a break from politics. #photography #landscape #autumn #montana

The Republican shutdown is hurtling us toward a health care cost cliff, which will hurt millions of American families– but enrich a few billionaires. Democrats are holding the line by demanding Republicans cancel the cuts, lower the costs, and save health care for millions of Americans.

Great game last night! Last time a full game was pitched in the post season was Justin Verlander in 2017.

Tunnel goblin 😺

WTF? This is truly disgusting. There is no place in our flag for the god damned swastika. If I see a flag with that swastika in it, I will gladly burn it.
