Indiana Republicans just defied Trump's pressure to rig their House maps - Ultimately, the heavy-handed tactics employed by Trump backfired on the president and his allies. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Even after more than a year, I cannot figure out Bluesky. Never feel at home here. Never feel connected to anybody here. Never see anything that tickles my fancy here. However... do get a lot of news links here, so it's useful for that. Anybody else in my same boat? Is anyone out there, at all?

"By treating Europe and Canada as enemies rather than allies, Trump has destroyed any plausible capacity to stand up to China. "In effect, Trump has chosen white supremacy over actual national greatness." -- @pkrugman.bsky.social

Biden: So, folks, that's my message to all of us today, to all who love our country, to all of us are dismayed by the present state of the union: it's time to get up, get up and fight back. Get up. Continue to fight. What's the fight all about? Protecting the constitution.

A Line 5 pipeline failure could leave Michiganders on the hook for $4 billion. Enbridge’s liability insurance covers $940 million ... while the federal oil spill trust fund covers $1 billion, leaving the state to cover at least $3.6 billion. Imagine the taxes. michiganadvance.com/2025/12/01/l...

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

This is the cheapest-looking tux shirt ever. And what is that stain on the left side of JD Vance's chest? Is he lactating?

Slotkin: I’m not going to be dissuaded from standing up for the Constitution just because he threatens us. I’m not going to let him intimidate us out of speaking our minds.

Seems like nosferatu wants the troops to follow unlawful orders.

Clyburn calls out Bessent for trying to take credit on a project in his district initiated by Biden.

We stand with Rep. Jasmine Crockett in calling for an end to voting machines owned by Dominion. Our voting systems should never be controlled by anyone aligned with MAGA politics. It’s time to push for statewide bans on these machines.

Who watchers the watchers? We, the people, that's who. Monitor these federal thugs!

Happy Halloween! Happy Samhain! 🎃🎃🎃

JD Vance’s family was on food assistance when he was growing up, but he doesn’t think your family deserves that safety net.

I bet Gov Abbott was pissed! 🤣

The Trump administration just ordered two Gulfstream luxury private jets for Kristi Noem at a cost of over $172 million. This comes as Americans can barely afford groceries.

No Kings protest aerial view in Boston. 🚫👑🇺🇸🐸

We don't care where you end up, Donold -- just LEAVE.

As ICE terrorizes communities, remember that some of Trump's biggest supporters are private prison companies that will make bank off his budget bill. And Stephen Miller recently disclosed over $100K of stock in Palantir, the shady data firm ICE uses to target immigrants. Cashing in on cruelty.

I'm really liking this woman to become Michigan's new senator. Can you imagine how powerful we will be with smart, fierce women like Mallory McMorrow and @slotkin.senate.gov holding the nation's northern border in the senate, fighting for families, for science, for a better future!

Time to re-post this.

Never let anyone tell you diversity isn’t strength. Any leader worth anything knows they are only as strong as the team and the team is at its best when it’s flourishing with different ideas, viewpoints and experiences.

Sorry I haven't been posting much. I've been so busy lately.

Soon, the majority of government shutdown days *in all of US history* will have happened on Donald Trump's watch.

No lie detected.

Rest in peace, Jane Goodall. You taught us that kindness is a form of strength and that respect for life in all its forms is the truest measure of humanity. You will be dearly missed.

Remember - It's not Red versus Blue. It's Billionaires versus YOU.
