Last day of early voting in Texas and the line at my polling place was out the door! GO BLUE!!! 💙💙💙

Just found out people are already putting together celebratory playlists for the big day when the whole world will be dancing in the streets.

Wait a minute, I’m a retired teacher and live in a very small home, but Scott Bessent thinks I have 10 homes? Who makes a comment like that regarding “mom and pop”? Help me understand.

This #CupOfJoe goes to Dave, of kris.and.dave (IG). He serving us some truth. ICE is a government sanctioned terrorist organization.

This morning I met a precious woman who will turn 65 in June. Until then, she has no medical insurance. 😔 We are two days into this “concepts of a plan” and folks are struggling.

To anyone in this administration: don’t you DARE call any of the people I respect to my deepest core the R word. Good grief. This should not have to be said.

I’ve taught middle/high school for 4 decades and when Pam asked, “Are you calling me a liar?” in that voice, I honestly laughed out loud.

I’m ready to move to Roku City.

“Mistaking cruelty for strength” is the summation of the republicans.

She’s saying exactly what is on this Texan’s heart. 💙

New girl just joined the resistance!

Can you imagine getting a postcard (and a cute one!!) from your teacher? I love Happy Dani!!!

When ICE agents questioned a group of 11- to 14-year-olds who’d just finished batting practice, their coach, Youman Wilder, stepped in. “I’m willing to die to make sure these kids can get home,” he recounted afterward.

I don’t know how many times Stephen Colbert has given me the only laugh of the day, and this is heartbreaking news to millions of us. I hope he will continue to be available, especially during the hard times, when his decent and truly good perspective is so needed. 💔

This Supreme Court loves chaos.

Nothing says “pro life” like murdering people in cold blood, and nothing says “family values” like shooting a mommy and daddy in front of their children during Father’s Day weekend.

NO KINGS DAY protest in little Bryan, Texas. Brazos County courthouse, Saturday morning, June 14, 9-11 AM. Time to show up and show out, Ags!

This has been an unexpectedly entertaining day. Watching the bromance disintegrating in real time is more fun than most Thursdays have been this year.

They must be told what to believe. They are incapable of reading/thinking/analyzing on their own.

Pardoning criminals is his #2 most important job. His #1 job is to wreck the lives of those who have no need of a pardon.

I have taught HS students with disabilities that lived in cinder block houses, single garages with dirt floors, or their family’s car. Having access to Medicaid services literally kept my students alive. Repuglicans obviously want them dead.

Yeah, no worries…

Maybe it’s just me, but if I got one doll, it was a great Christmas. Anyone out there ever get 30??? Or even 2 for the same holiday?

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

He is accusing Ukraine of starting the war?!?!? He speaks; he lies!

My beautiful mom died 35 years ago. As a school nurse who felt privileged to distribute the polio vaccine in sugar cubes, she would have been an outspoken opponent of this anti-vaccine foolishness. 💔

One of the very few good people representing TX!

Good info!!!

@johnpavlovitz.bsky.social states it perfectly, as usual.

And this is the person who bought the election.

“From the fullness of the heart, the mouth speaks.”

PRESS ON!

Comedy Central is doing The Office marathon on Monday.

The ugliness and indecency that awaits us is completely overwhelming to me right now. I’m heartbroken…💔💔💔

Wow, this attorney general nominee…the finest caricature of republican women ever.

Ohhhhh, this is spot on for me!

Honesty. Character. Humility. Those were the themes that came up over and over again in remembrances of President Carter.

Watching the quiet dignity of President Carter returning to DC provides a stark contrast with the next person who will fill that office. 💔

Stress Baking is a thing for me, so this is my resolution for 2025.

💔💔💔

As a public school teacher, I think about the possibility of being shot every time I walk into the building.

Anyone else see something wrong with this?

As a teacher funded by Title 1, my sweet babies will never have anything close to an equal playing field again.

“Build opposition that is durable.” That’s it…that’s what we have to do.

Forgive me if this is petty but the next account I’d like to surpass here on Bluesky is CNN. They helped normalize Trump at every turn and did nothing to help tell the truth about Kamala. Time to show them what we think. Can you RT this and follow us if you haven’t. 💙🙏

😳 I just saw like a 50’ confederate flag hanging from the tops of some really tall trees, unfurled to the ground, flanked by flagpoles with regular confederate flags! WTH?!? It was on I-64 between Richmond and Charlottesville, VA. Can anyone confirm?

The US is still the ONLY country who refuses to do the right thing.

“An actual human person…”

Day one on Bluesky, happy to be here. Not interested in seeing cabinet nominees in this space.
