Thank heavens. I’ve been saying Merry Christmas my whole life, but always in fear that someone would chide me. Because it happened at least . . . well, never. But that doesn’t mean it couldn’t have.

I feel like there’s a lesson to be learned here, but I can’t quite put my finger on it.

Well said!

The @nytimes.com ran a whole story about the murder of Venezuelan civilians on a ship as if it were a military matter and we were at war with Venezuela. It was a crime. The story never mentioned that Trump ordered a criminal act and the Navy followed an illegal order. This is a major event.

Good Morning Blue Sky. ☕☕☕☕

Yep, that was the promise. Although, of course, I’ll read/ogle anything you post.

Our health care system is close to collapse. Not enough doctors, nurses or dentists. Costs are skyrocketing. Trump’s legislation will cause hospitals, nursing homes & community health centers to cut back services. We need a simple, universal system: Medicare for All.

Oh please, MAGAts don’t actually “know” anything they aren’t spoon-fed by people who think they’re idiots.

Infuriating just doesn’t seem to cut it anymore.

So very sad, but true.

Reports that a Canadian citizen who has resided in the US since age 10 was abducted at a green card interview. Her husband is begging ICE to let him fly her back to Canada and they refuse to release her.

Wow, when you see how much this guy can accomplish, it amazes me that we put up with such terrible Presidents for 250 years!

To be fair, it’s all about perspective. He wasn’t alive for D-Day, so his previous “most complex and secretive military operation” ever was when his wife asked him to go pick up a birthday cake AND candles BUT don’t tell their daughter. And he almost pulled it off.

true

“Pretty much wherever you are, you’re probably less than 30 minutes away from your closest No Kings event.” - @leahgreenberg.bsky.social with @democracynow.org We hope to see you at your local #NoKings Day mobilization on Saturday: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

“The respect you had go or Donald Trump”? Well, there’s your problem right there.

@beckabites.bsky.social ok so call me a newbie, but why can’t I see anything labeled Adult Content?

These people are just wrong about literally everything.

Very important to remember when participating in a protest.

Very courageous for the Chair of the House Freedom Caucus Andy Harris to vote “present” on the budget. He took a strong and principled stand to do nothing, and refused to waiver from his firm commitment to do nothing.

This is certainly what I’m hearing.

As I said on MSNBC, in 1960 white evangelical christians accused JFK that he would put the Pope over our Constitution. Today we have a new Pope who supports our Constitution more than our current President. And the white christians support this anti-constitutional President and attack the Pope.

This BS has gotten very old. When is somebody going to stop notifying us of the corruption and actually charge someone with breaking the law?

Amen to all of this.

100 men vs. 1 gorilla? How about the working class against the oligarchy? The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%. This is the real fight we need to be talking about.

Very true, but that’s damning with faint praise. I’ve got tube socks with more empathy than the GOP.

There is a reason why millions of workers want to join unions. There is a reason why greedy corporations oppose unions. Union membership means higher wages and better benefits. Let’s grow the trade union movement.

One of the organizing principles I am constantly working to embrace in my own life is that once people arrive to the fight with genuine readiness to act, no matter how late they are, they are welcome and can be organized and moved

Sharing to increase the bandwidth.

So MUCH fear of even the possibility of losing the ability to make more money, even though you already have more than you could spend in 10 lifetimes.

Amen to all of this.

Oh, FFS, leave those of us with Italian heritage out of your pandering. I have plenty of ancestors to feel immense pride in without using this problematic (at best) individual as some sort of role model. Read up on Ancient Rome and the Renaissance for starters.

This is embarrassing.

The worst thing you can do right now is hide or go quiet. Stand up and talk back.

He’s not just going to hand it back to us.

Yep, he’ll sell a few dozen to his knuckle dragging base and then announce that “everyone wants” him to ignore the 22nd amendment.
