It just occurred to me that @barackobama.bsky.social paid more of a political price for having a PASTOR who once said “god damn America” than Donald Trump paid for being close friends with the most notorious pedophile in history. Democrats need to figure out how that can happen

When @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social wins, I would love for @cnn.com to find this woman, and interview her. I’d love to see her reaction to a Muslim will being elected mayor of NYC, America’s biggest city & home to 9/11

If you think the optics of the president being focused on his ballroom while making zero effort to end a govt #Shutdown is bad, Just wait til next summer, when people are in breadlines bc their healthcare bankrupted them, while the White House is hosting a UFC fight

Now that’s weird What can they have in common? Oh yeah, the whole pedophile cover up thing

Update: I’ll be voting “yes” to retain those 3 judges Because I saw an ad with Gov Shapiro, and he said I should

The only explanation for how these people can be so brazen with their hypocrisy, is that they like being hypocrites. Perhaps there’s something Dems should learn from that. But also, what do I not understand about Republicans, that an Eric Trump book could be a best seller? Who reads that?

Which radical socialist has been president more than half of this period?

every once in a while, I go to #TruthSocial, usually to verify something ridiculous someone claims the dumb orange traitor said. It is the absolute worst social media site. There are more ads than posts. (including for a "patriot phone", which surely will only be purchased by UNpatriotic people)

an #AWS outage is more impactful than Y2K was.

this is why, when Ds win the presidency, Rs IMMEDIATELY know their mission: use every means of propaganda to browbeat the American people into thinking everything sucks. They don't let pesky things like facts get in the way. at the end of 2021, millions thought the stock market had a TERRIBLE year

another point I want to make is that Dems don't do enough performative politics. The American people are far too ignorant of the obscene enriching of themselves and their friends this administration has been doing. You can't "tell them"; you have to come up with performative tricks that highlight it

You know who didn’t “always vote republican”? Donald Trump! In fact, as recent as 2012, he told Santorum he couldn’t endorse him bc he was “too pro life”. Why did he become a Republican? Bc he knew they had zero principles. I will never vote for that party of traitors again

It is not an exaggeration to say that in Trump’s America, a pro-Trump-pedophile is less likely to face consequences than anti-Trump-paperwork-mistake-maker

Here’s the #WealthTax I would like to see proposed by the Dems next year, when people are really feeling the pain of skyrocketing health insurance premiums: If you were in attendance at Trump’s 2nd inaugural, you’ll fund next year’s ACA subsidies with 10% of your net worth. They can survive on 90%

Why is all the right leaning attention for the shutdown on Mike Johnson, and not John Thune? Essentially Mike Johnson is right, they did their part. When Mitch McConnell was SML, the attacks were on HIM

Stephen Colbert - Kermit the Frog vs. ICE (Rainbow Connection)

Yes. & it was inevitably going to happen during this prez term. In all likelihood, Ukraine as well. Trump will take a victory lap in that too. Did anything bad end during Biden’s term? Covid? No victory lap Economic crisis? Yes; but he was BLAMED Afghanistan war? Yes. disastrous, politically

If actual video of Trump taping a child came out, his polls numbers would probably go down a little. I’m not holding my breath on anything more than that

I still harbor resentments for him not prioritizing making sure Trump never becomes president again more. But it’s hard not to miss him after the the insanity of the last 9 months

As much as I do like @bsky.app It can be a bit snowflaky I mean come on people, THIS gets me on moderation lists? I’m not an “Israel apologist” or even a Zionist. I actually don’t have my minds made up on a lot of issues related to that whole conflict. I should be someone you want to win over!

And all it cost them was a bribe of one large jet to Trump? What a bargain!

It is hard to believe that ANYONE is this stupid Let alone the president of the United States

What MAGA is really about

Make America’s Greatness No Longer Exist

Insanity

I’m expecting to be asked today by people I haven’t seen since last year what I think of this admin. Gonna say “it’s been very successful”. Surely they’ll be shocked and inquire further. & I’ll say “I always knew his primary focus would be to make a fortune for himself. Mission accomplished.”

I’m save people some money: If it’s a “brand” you want, you can’t do better than a name that automatically gets you millions of suckers. So just name your child “Trump” Do you think we’d ever HEARD OF this man, if his family name were still Drumpf?

This should be our #FJB

Unamerican piece of shit

I have great respect for this man. Yet, I think there's a chance Trump never becomes president had @jamescomey.bsky.social made that poor (albeit honest and difficult) mistake that he made in 2016. This message does give me some degree of hope for the country.

#EscalatorGate is the biggest scandal in American history

great post here

How quaint. Shortly after Trump got sworn in, executive orders became “accomplishments” This time around? It’s one of the least dictatorial things he does But what was that again, @johnfetterman.com; don’t call him an autocrat?

am I understanding this correctly? MAGA is blaming Dems for words that inspired the non-Dem to shoot #CharlieKirk But Trump, who was prez at the time, & gathered his supporters outside the capitol when they're supposed to be counting the votes, & told them to "fight like hell"...just words, right?

Fucking perfect!

And if South Park doesn’t come back, I DO give up

I am seriously considering giving up on America. So some fucking whack job, who’s not even a Democrat, kills a conservative, unites the right against….Democrats Gives cover to Elon to bend the knee again, so they’ll resume their evil alliance It’s hopeless

Seriously, how do these fucking people who defend the #KimmelFiring even take themselves seriously?

Think about this The #ColbertReport, where Stephen Colbert parodied the absurd hypocrisy of “conservatives” in America, ended BEFORE Donald Trump became a political figure. Can you even imagine how could it would be if it came back NOW? After a decade of the FAKEST conservative EVER?

I'm becoming more & more convinced that Trump would LOVE a govt shutdown. & he knows the Dems know this So they should focus on messaging. Trump doesn't believe in our system anyway. So how about instead of dictating more money for his friends, he starts delivering on the promise to LOWER PRICES

here's how I think the Democrats should handle the budget deal: Donald Trump has made it clear that he is going to DICTATE what's going to happen anyway. So we're not going to also make the American people suffer through a shutdown. We just ask that he dictate those lower prices he promised.

I made the mistake of putting this hearing on for two seconds And got to see Senator Jim Banks ask her why she would hire @markzaidesq.bsky.social Yes, in AMERICA, a fired govt employee was asked why she’d hire someone who opposes Dear Leader

when you take away the assumption that this President of the United States WANTS to stop political violence everything he says makes a lot more sense.

If this is not all over @cnn.com & @msnbc.com today, then I give up. This isn’t from some random person. This is Laura Loomer. Someone who has the president’s ear. And what is the fascistic thing Hochul did to warrant this? Endorsed a candidate for mayor they don’t like

Good thing the transgender person is cooperating. So we can learn about the motives of this non transgender shooter

The worst example is Trump, himself Who has REPEATEDLY used the most hateful rhetoric for his political opponents For a decade now Including their supposed red line word “fascist” & then behaves like a total fascist

I don’t know how to break this cycle of “the right” (& I hate using that term) being guilty of what they accuse the left of THEY (Trump, Mace, Erika Kirk, etc) are doing everything they can to provoke someone to do harm to someone on the left Even if that person on the left mourns Charlie Kirk

One way to realize why even well intended people dealing with the Kirk assassination are making things worse, is to simply picture what this would look like if #CharlieKirk was a left leaning individual. There’s no flag at half mast There’s no FBI director holding back tears

The one that is going to make it impossible for this country to heal, is “fascist, catch this” THEY are NEVER going to understand that everything they do is from the fascist playbook. Now, it will be open season on anyone who calls a fascist a fascist And they can EXPECT a pardon Dark times ahead
