If you oppose the current regime, and that likely includes almost everyone seeing this, then you should understand that the only reason you haven’t been indicted is because you aren’t significant enough. “Show me the person and I’ll show you the crime.”

Because a large chunk of them cares more about access than actually doing their jobs. If they lose the access, they lose their book deals, etc. There are very few out there who actually want to hold politicians feet to the fire anymore - Trump’s most pointed questions come from foreign journos.

No one outside the U.S. is confused and no one here would be confused if they saw this happening in another country.

No. Only liberals like killary do that.

I’ve started work on my definitive work “The Rise and Fall of the First American Republic: The United States from 1789 until 202-“. I am just not if I should consider the end date 2024, with Trump’s second election, 2028 when elections are cancelled, or some time in between.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

For the first time, Trump’s policies have directly made my life worse. His tariffs have pushed the price of my beloved Kerry Gold butter beyond what I’m willing to pay. So now I will have to make do with Land o Lakes or Falfurrias, which are the best domestic butters widely available in our area.

My prediction: Dear Leader will pass away on September 3 to distract us from the Epstein victims press conference.

Judge Xinis: Your clients are *absolutely forbidden* from removing Mr. Abrego from the continental United States. You understand this? DOJ: Yes.

I believe my health has improved by 40%. Now only three vultures circle overhead when I go out in the fields. Last year it was five.

If you live in a completely Republican area where everyone already does whatever the Regime wants then you don’t have to worry about martial law, right? And if I use the self-checkout at the grocery store and pay at the pump, I never have to talk to my neighbors. I need a dog in the worst way.

In response complaints about the Democratic Party: We, the people, gave complete control to the Republicans. Nobody is coming to save us. As Beto said, “We are the Cavalry.” As Tim Snyder said, “Be as brave as you can be.” When the people are ready, a leader will emerge. Keep hope alive!

I thought @mattwatkinspolicy.bsky.social explained it very well. slate.com/news-and-pol...

It’s becoming clearer and clearer that these are our choices

I have a question that’s very important to me. Is there anything you can imagine Trump doing that would cause a significant number of Republican congresspeople to turn against him? Thank you for your attention to this matter.

@radiofreetom.bsky.social I just saw you on Nicole Wallace and I am beginning to think it’s time to panic.

Why, oh why, don’t we have a YMCA parody TACO, yet?

Repost w/ the five shows you would be happy to rewatch over and over again for the rest of your life, as your sole TV diet. Green Acres Law & Order Letterkenny Chapelle’s Show SNL

Public opinion is in favor of: - lowering taxes - increasing benefits - reducing the deficit Therefore, the most truly democratic policy is to stop teaching arithmetic in school.

Little chance of breakthrough in the US-Ukraine minerals deal due to an "antagonistic" atmosphere, per Reuters. Tensions rose in Washington talks after Trump’s administration expanded its proposal beyond the original terms. www.reuters.com/world/us-ukr...

Listening to Crosby Stills and Nash. Ohio came out the year I turned 18. Now, more half s century later, I fear it will be so much worse

The regime couldn’t find enough undocumented immigrants to deport so they’re making more.

It’s not easy to calculate but based on the budget request. It appears that ICE is preparing to detain between 700,000 and 1,500,000 people

I’m confused. Is Mexico or Canada paying my tariffs?

I am considering taking a position ensuring that the residents of Heard and McDonald Islands pay their tariffs.

Hundreds of international students have just received an email telling them their visas have been revoked. The ‘justification’ is campus activism or social media posts. timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/hun...

Extraordinary scenes in Serbia’s capital Belgrade right now. Around 500,000 people are on the streets in what may be the biggest protest in Serbian history. All demanding the resignation of President Vučić & his government. What began as a student protest is now a full democratic uprising. 🇷🇸

The budget situation is the Kobayashi Maru. Every choice loses. But it might be even worse. The Democratic Party may tear itself apart over the decision, whatever it is, ensuring years of Republican rule, even if somewhat fair elections are allowed.

Two songs from more than 50 years ago are warring in my mind. Rod Stewart’s version of “Reason to Believe” and the Animals “We’ve Got to Get Out of This Place.”

Are the tariffs to distract from cutting aid off to Ukraine or is cutting aid to Ukraine off meant to distract from the tariffs?

Please give. Right now is CRUCIAL!

For the first time that I can remember in a long life, I am sick to my stomach, literally not metaphorically, because of our country’s leadership

Too many of you are acting like you don’t understand. Until you do, you can’t act appropriately

Today, for the first time, I had to check to make sure my Social Security was paid. We are entering times of great uncertainty

Just in case someone out there doesn’t know it yet: We’re totally fucked.

Well, not all of us but still funny.

Senate Democrats are considering voting NO or delaying every Trump nominee as retaliation for his overreach on ending USAID. Smash the RT if you SUPPORT this plan. ZERO votes from Democrats!!

Does anybody know the average length of time autocratic rule lasts? I would like to think my children, or at least my grandchildren, might get a chance to experience democracy?

Just in case someone out there doesn’t know it yet: We’re totally fucked.

Run, hide, die. Those will be the choices. A few of us lucky enough to have enough resources and a place to go will run. The overwhelming majority will hide. And a very small number of heroes will die.

Small avocados at HEB just increased in price from .45 cents to .69 cents apiece. I blame the President-elect.

Word of the Day is ‘uhtcearu’ [ucht-kay-aru, with the 'ch' as in the Scottish ‘loch']: Old English for ‘the sorrow before dawn', when you lie awake in the darkness and worries crowd your mind.

Here’s what’s happened: Trump and Putin have a deal. Trump gets all of North America. Putin gets all of the old Soviet Union and as much of the Warsaw Pact as he can take. It makes the Hitler-Stalin deal to split Poland look like small potatoes and it’s the only way to explain what’s going on.

When did United States Democracy die? 1. January 6, 2021 — the Insurrection 2. July 1, 2024 — S.Ct. gives Trump immunity 3. November 5, 2024 — Trump re-elected 4. January 6, 2025 — Trump’s election certified 5. January 20, 2025 — Trump inaugurated 6. I prefer living in a fantasy world

Anddd my 6th starter pack filled up basically immediately, and I opened up the 7th starter pack. I am not sure how many I will be doing for now, but yes a repost on this will get you into this latest one! go.bsky.app/MbMTYbM

Our coalition can’t afford to throw out anyone in the tent. We can only open the tent more, if we hope to win again. Keep that in mind before overreacting to people who are on your side.
