It’s just stunning. The White House trailer park.

Trump Derangement Syndrome

Looking at what he's done to the People's House (without Congressional approval, of course), I feel equal parts rage & embarrassment for our country. The Midterms can't come soon enough... #Register&VOTE 🌊

📌Watching Republicans cave to this pathetic felon and 80-yr.-old wannabe king is pathetic it really is. Dude will be gone soon, and they will still be here looking grotesque, stupid and weak ...

Trump and the Republicans made America weak and then attacked the scientific institutions that we need to catch up.

So much depends on whether our system, and our leaders, speak to what is best in us - or what is worst in us.

watch Trump here. not only is his hand disfigured, but his eyes are closed and he looks like he's about to tip over

The Republicans have no instinct for separation from Trump, no will to stage an intervention, no ability to muster an ultimatum. They have been complicit in their captivity, co-conspirators in their demise.

Republicans are afraid they can’t win elections on the merits of their governance and policies. So now, they’ve turned to moving the goalposts, changing the rules for winning elections so they can try to hold onto power nonetheless.

In all idealistic sincerity, we need to make a real attempt here in the US to educate the citizenry on both the basic principles of civics and democracy, and on the realities of the candidates running for office.

🧵 by @micyoung75.bsky.social:

The "America First" occupant of the White House keeps putting America LAST. He spends billions a day on unauthorized wars abroad, but claims there's no money for childcare or healthcare for families here at home? There is no deficit of resource—only a deficit of empathy.

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

How republicans in Congress can ignore this is beyond me. He needs to be removed immediately. @oversightdemocrats.bsky.social let’s see impeachment articles. Now.

📌He is obviously a very sick and evil old man, and is no longer the problem. Your friends and family who somehow still support him are. Without them, there is no him. Happy Easter

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

People who begin by shooting animals they find unpleasant or not worthy of living often turn out to be serial killers. Remember that when you think about Kristi Noem.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Fuck you Tim Cook. Fuck you very much Really working hard to ruin your company's brand while you help undermine the nation and the world and, they like your money but they hate you as a gay man

What is wrong with Tim Cook?

Just when you thought it could not get worse: extortion on the table?

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Republican politicians just never learn that loyalty goes one way for Trump.

This statement from an eyewitness to the Minnesota murder of Mr. Pretti is gut wrenching, from beginning to end. Please disseminate it as you see fit. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

This is why it’s so important to see all the video you can before making a judgement (looking at you DHS). Video appears to show the victim trying to protect another person & being pulled down by agents. There needs to be a credible investigation, not one by CBP/ICE www.reddit.com/r/minnesota/...

ANOTHER ANGLE: the original video was deleted but I screen capped it. Here it is.

🚨 New from me: Grant review at more than half of NIH's institutes could be frozen by the end of the year. That's because crucial NIH grant-review panels are slated to be empty at those institutes by Jan 2027. A wonky bureaucratic problem with big implications. A short 🧵

2/ But did you know the same paragraph addresses the 'outside agitator' label now back in vogue: "Never again can we afford to live with the narrow, provincial 'outside agitator' idea. Anyone who lives inside the United States can never be considered an outsider anywhere within its bounds."

1/ You probably know the first part of this MLK quote... "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly."

Block ICE on Bluesky ! U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcemento @icegov.bsky.social

Trump is not a patriot, and MAGA is un-American.

The tl;dr of this report is not that these administration officials are upset about ICE having murdered Renee Good; it's that even these goons realize Noem's lies about the murder were so poorly crafted that people aren't going to believe all the other lies the administration tells the public.

I had a few thoughts on this question in 2019 and wrote this 11,000+ word piece about Donald Trump's serious psychiatric disorders to explain why, as a legal and constitutional matter, he was unfit for the presidency and would only become more so with the passage of time. ...

Congress has ignored the federal law requiring hanging in the Capitol by 3/2023 the plaque promising never to forget the heroism of those who risked all to defend Congress’ members and the Constitution. This essay by the great Jamie Raskin makes good on that promise. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/06/o...

Renee Good’s last words were to ICE agent Jonathan Ross: “That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.” Then Ross shot Renee three times in the face. As she was dying, his last words to her were: “Fucking bitch.” And JD Vance thought that exchange exonerated ICE. That says it all.

Arizona Senator Mark Kelly (@captmarkkelly.bsky.social) and Jon Stewart dissect Pete Hegseth's "sedition" accusation against the retired Navy captain and how it speaks to the fragile egos of the Trump administration

Zohran Mamdani will be sworn in as NYC's first Muslim mayor on a Qur'an from the personal collection of the great Afro-Boricua intellectual Arturo Schomburg—as well as Qur'ans owned by Mamdani's grandparents. www.nypl.org/press/schomb...

What the KENNEDY Center used to be… Remember that time Aretha Franklin performed at the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors, paying tribute to Carole King, who co-wrote “You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman,” and it brought a tear to Obama’s eye and everyone to their feet? And Carole King’s reaction. Wow.

Here’s the highest-quality upload of the 60 minutes CECOT segment I’ve found so far: www.dailymotion.com/video/x9w8gyi

DOJ is simply Trump’s defense team. Vance is fine with neo-Nazis as allies. Bari Weiss is running CBS on behalf of Team Trump. Trump’s renewing his attack on our NATO ally Denmark. Witkoff basically works for Putin. But at least Elise Stefanik has failed—for now. youtu.be/fjkeecLFQyE?...

Good news! Like I've been telling you folks, he's got congestive heart failure. www.youtube.com/shorts/YcCoN...

The monsters are due on Maple Street, don’t you think? But we should not forget what Henry Kissinger (I think it was him) said “even paranoids have real enemies.”

Australia, Canada, Mexico, Germany, and others have seen their political scene shift strongly to the left. When will the American MAGA influencers realize that the issues are ethical, moral, and, indeed, practical. MAGAs believe what they are told, but they are selective in who they listen to.

For those of use that hope for a more measured and reasoned approach to managing the Federal Bureaucracy, I feel like many BlueSky posts are not helpful. I see too many posts that are meant to shock readers about Trump’s capricious executive orders ...
