Has anyone found information about whether or not there were actual visual proof of drugs being on that first boat? Could we see evidence of that as they were sinking boats where we are no longer be able to see? I think hiding a lack of evidence is a stronger impulse than national security.

Can anyone please explain to me in simple terms…what would a ‘radical left’ agenda look like? Or how would a ‘radical left’ destroy the country? ‘Radical right’ I totally get because we have seen it in action. I can’t imagine what the opposite end would be like that would be terrible.

Biden autopen - who’s making decisions for the president? Trump - pardons someone he doesn’t know because someone said something. Who’s making the decisions for this president? I honestly don’t see how it isn’t the same accusation. Biden just did a thing presidents do. Trump did someone’s bidding.

Dems should come up with a ridiculous goal and talk about it as something all Americans are concerned about - like ‘slamdunkability’ (I’m open to other options if you have them). It’s gonna be fun watching the president declare he is the ‘slamdunkability’ president not seeing how stupid it sounds

Starting now!! We got this. I actually feel like I’m doing something by doing nothing.

The Guardian asks, Will it work? Yes, make your $ count: Don’t spend at companies that collude with the regime! Don’t purchase from Home Depot, Amazon or Target black Friday through cyber Monday. WE AIN’T BUYING IT indivisible.org/campaign/we-... www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

So if you’re concerned that there will be confusion in the military because troops will be making their own decisions on what’s legal and what’s illegal, and therefore what orders they will and won’t follow…stop doing presumably illegal things. Then it’ll be real clear.

If billionaires can afford to go to space for fun, they can afford to pay taxes on Earth.

Can you spread the word about weaintbuyingit.com? This is one of the easiest and safest ways possible to fight back against the current administration. If you've been saying there's nothing you can do - you're wrong! All you have to do is not buy from Amazon, Home Depot, or Target for five days.

It really is disgusting that Trump can insult, berate, single out, threaten, and demean female reporters on a daily basis for asking fair and legitimate questions and you can’t find a single Republican woman in Congress to say it is inappropriate behavior.

Well, when you put it THAT way…

Ok so democracy isn’t working so well right now. Maybe we take an irrefutable metric of American prosperity, without bias or requiring context. Generate results over the years and whatever policies were best based on that metric, let’s just do that. I vote for whatever they’re doing in Star Trek.

Is it just me, or does everyone else feel that his current support for the house to release the files is because he has the senate prepared to NOT release them? Like he’s gotten to the senate GOP already…so sure, let the house vote to release. What’s got me is that he hasn’t bragged about it yet.

Started watching The West Wing again from the beginning. I’m claiming it as my new reality until my real reality feels less like a bad tv drama.

This!

@lauren.rotatingsandwiches.com I agree clarification needed to happen, but did you need to be a dick about it? Sometimes harsh makes a good point, this wasn’t that time.

From abcnews…so I need to add, what if you don’t qualify for any of the other tax breaks approved in the one bill? This was not a sweeping change that benefits all Americans.

This!!!

Regarding the newly covered GLP-1 meds…I wonder how much he will make personally.

With Trump’s massive tax cuts for the wealthy currently exploding the deficit, and now this, Trump and his oligarch cronies want to make us debt slaves from birth to death while truly owning nothing, while they buy bigger yachts and more mansions.

Before anyone gets mad at Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, listen to Kate. Justice Jackson didn’t side with Trump: she issued a temporary stay to prevent a rushed ruling that could let presidents exploit shutdowns to bypass Congress. Her move protects SNAP recipients & constitutional checks & balances

Thought for today

White House bunker theory…it’s a diversion. He’s building his fancy ‘planned doomsday’ bunker somewhere else, but we are here whining about the White House. It would be a way to bring the population down to Stephen Miller preferred levels quickly without all this pesky starving them time.

I left Bluesky 8 months ago because it was causing me to feel helpless and stressed. But I came back to the people that understand because an FB algorithm decided I liked MAGA feeds. And I really don’t. It’s amazing what we were all upset about then and how much worse it has gotten since then.

You gotta be careful what you wish for.

Maybe now we will listen to this articulate, intelligent lady that had a plan to actually help elevate Americans.

Can we all just agree to remove ‘weaponization’ from the lexicon? Say what you really mean - doing something that doesn’t agree with what ‘we’ want. Doesn’t mean it’s hostile, so don’t make it hostile.

His assault on the judiciary continues. SCOTUS gave him a whiff of absolute power last year. He wants it all. No checks. No balances.

We have to talk about the absolutely insane CR the GOP has proposed. This bill formally abdicates Congressional authority over the budget and allows the Executive to sequester funds for any reason or no reason at all.

So hear me out…if we just tell Trump that he’ll feel bad about a smaller government he may just flip out and say that we can’t tell him how he’ll feel and he’ll hire the federal workers back just to spite us. Or maybe we all start idolizing Musk, then Trump will get jealous and make Musk his enemy.

Feel free to keep overreacting.

quote of the day www.ft.com/content/4221...

Excellent point.

Fearing repercussions from your government. Fearing the sudden loss of healthcare for your whole family. Fearing that what the government intends for you is mere sadism—trauma without purpose or justification. This is what evil men do when we let them spend a lifetime doing evil without consequence.

Thank you, The Onion for being so ludicrous and yet believable.

And the atrocities just keep coming.

Something noted in the Democracy Docket today about the recent CPAC made me think. The obvious thing to note is that Congress couldn’t get it done because what’s being done is ILLEGAL and that’s the only way their radical agenda CAN be done.

This makes sense and could help our mental health during these weird times. I’m gonna find my something and rock it!

And in good news, I present this.

Things should quiet down today, it’s Sunday. Isn’t that some sort of religious/golf special day?

Why do I hesitate to like certain posts or repost or post what I’m thinking because maybe some day I end up on a list that fucks up my entire life? When did this become my reality?

“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist” James Baldwin

Why? I’d like to understand How.

I’m no political scholar, but this is bad, right?

So, question…how does the government expect to replace park rangers with AI? I mean, how would THAT work? How is AI going to protect the land and animals? Oh wait, I answered it for myself. Never mind.
