Anyone who murders people on the open seas in public will murder them in private for their sadistic pleasure.

Release Adelita Grijalva!

Virginia needs to do the same. @michelle4va.bsky.social

You can want anything you want to want. It's a free country. But this is the sort of thing that if you say out loud, you should expect to be shunned by all decent people. It is NOT reasonable or acceptable. Vance is a disgrace to his office.

Astute observation. Trump ALWAYS goes after any R's who stray from the res. He did not attack Marge. Ergo, he gave her permission.

Knowing your rights does not stop a corrupt Supreme Court from abrogating them. Electing people who respect the rule of law does. We need to reform the SCOTUS ASAP. In the meantime, elect Democrats at the State level to put some check on their lawlessness.

"The Right in 2025 Sounds a Lot Like the Nazis in 1925" Today’s far right may know it’s wrong to talk about a “superior race,” so it just frames it as a “superior culture” instead: zeteo.com/p/the-right-...

The First Amendment is more to protect YOU the listener than the speaker. When Trump and Rubio, when the Republicans do this, they are denying YOU your right.

Ha ha ha. You silly goose. There are always more straws.

Every landlord knows: Get good tenants. Trash will trash your house. Sorry America had to learn this the hard way.

Write your Representative and Senator and demand that Congress NOT pay for the demolition of the east wing. Trump did that - during the shutdown - without approval. He can pay for it himself.

I really appreciate Trump for resurrecting the Russia scandal, which had largely fallen so far down the memory hole that many people now erroneously think it was a hoax. It was not.

After he's gone, I want the 'ballroom' to be converted into the Museum of Trump, chronicling every horrible, disgraceful and illegal thing he has done since sliding down that escalator. And this picture should be in there.

Undocumented immigrants 0%

If I had some AI skills, I would make this go viral, but extend it. Show him shitting on small towns with signs showing their hospitals closing. On farmers with their farms bankrupt. On people trying to afford healthcare. On cities, with ICE brutality. Churches, while the pastor is pepper sprayed...

We’re the party of freedom. They’re the party of George Santos and Jeffrey Epstein.

Take a picture of yourself at the No Kings rally. Print it. Put it in a frame. Your grandchildren will speak about you for generations to come. You took a stand against fascism. You stood up for democracy. 

People do evolve.

The most brilliant politician in America.

We need to do this in Virginia. Also, we should reduce the number of elected offices. Sheriff, Clerk of the Court, Tax Commissioner, and Treasurer should all be appointed, like the Chief of Police.

Note that the Young Republicans did not ban or censure these people. The Young Republicans ARE these people. These are the kinds of people the Republicans are teaching their young to be.

It’s amazing how all the reporting is just memory-holing this part

We need some modern version of the Fairness Doctrine. He is right that these protesters are anti fascist, and Sean Duffy is pro fascist. But there needs to be someone on the show there to point that out, and not just people like me pointing it out on BlueSky.

"Condemn him for what?" For ordering the DOJ to target his enemies. For abuse of power. If you do not understand that, Mr former Governor, you have no business being Mayor or holding any other office. No wonder he abused his own power when he had it. He doesn't know what it means.

Release the Epstein Files.

The most dishonest thing I read all day (but the day is young). The military is *already* violating their oaths, murdering sailors in the Caribbean and civilians in Iran - a country we are not at war with.

This is why they wear masks. So they can commit assault without fear of prosecution.

28% live in a fantasy world.

It's a pretty big deal that the NYC Bar Association--one of the most prominent and respected bar associations in the country--is accusing the President of ordering the "unlawful summary execution," i.e. murder--of civilians in violation of US and international law. www.nycbar.org/press-releas...

Any interviewer who doesn't ask Abbott why he has not sent the NG into Houston is incompetent.

I posted this one week after the election in 2024. Holds up.

“Forcing knowledge to pass through a political filter is a tactic adopted by the Soviet Union and other authoritarian states.”

The families of Venezuelan boaters murdered by military officers following illegal orders would beg to differ.

Bouie, he doesn't mince words. (And he's right.)

Best self-own ever!

What Klein doesn't get and what the Dems don't get is what Mr Miyagi got 40 years ago: Left side safe. Right side safe. Walk in the middle, get squished, just like grape. Klein and the Dem leadership want to stay in the middle - where they get hit from both sides.

Yglesias is way to 'centrist' for me. But when he's left, he's right.

What a moron. No Mr. Dump, none of Mamdani's proposals require federal money.

Dems keep wondering why Dems keep losing. Hakeem Jefferies is exhibits H - J. I dunno. Maybe he is sweet talking Adams into not dropping out.

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

Great video from @moreperfectunion.bsky.social on TikTok

JUST NOW AT THE UN…

*nods head*

If they had a right-wing, “tough-on-crime” coded mayor there would be endless national profiles about him and how he finally brought sanity back to Chicago.

Is this really what she thinks or is it parody? I could see this being posted by Stephen Colbert as his old faux-conservative character or by The Onion.

Institutional investors own a small fraction of the housing market. They are responsible for a large fraction of the rent increases in recent years.
