In case anybody needs a reminder how so called “libertarians” conducted themselves during the past ten years: www.thebulwark.com/p/how-trump-...

I feel like I'm losing my goddamnned mind. This op-ed was written by Kathrine Mangu-Ward. Katherine is editor-in-chief of Reason magazine. Reason fired @shikhadalmia.bsky.social for being too anti-Trump.

A tale told in two screenshots :)

Whether it's Donald Trump taking bribes from terror-sponsoring foreign governments, Donald Trump plotting to rig the 2026 election, or Donald Trump posting a video of the Obamas as apes, both parties must do better.

The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023. The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets. https://ow.ly/jy8a50Y8kM3

Liberals say that today is a sad for our democracy. They're wrong—today is a sad day for our republic.

A year ago today, 1500+ terrorists were pardoned for their domestic attack at the Capitol.

Sheeeeiiiit

Compare this to Biden leaving Afghanistan & think about what the incentives are for every American politician

Trump should release all of the Epstein files: every person and every document in the files.

Scream it for the people in the back!

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

The Framers: We have published a gigantic collection of essays entitled "Don't Elect That Guy" Modern America: We have successfully elected "That Guy" from the famous publication "Don't Elect That Guy"

If you smoke at all start quitting rn. Make sure you can go a week without a drink; if not work on cutting back. Also quit drinking soda

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

All of this!

In absolute earnest, I think terror of “elitism” has put a powerful vocabulary for describing what’s going on here out of play. These people are vulgar, thuggish, unsophisticated, crass, unschooled, unreflective. They are low in a sense that has nothing to do with income, & it’s fine to say so.

Liberals say that the United States has gone from being a democracy to being a dictatorship. They're wrong—it's gone from being a republic to being a dictatorship.

Leftist: Yes, Trump’s kind of a fascist. Now let me get back to my obsession, re-litigating fights with Democratic centrists from a decade or two ago. Centrist: Yes, there are signs of fascism. Now let me get back to complaining a lefty used some woke terms a few years ago. American democracy: 🤯🤯🤯

had Biden randomly wandered on the White House roof shouting at reporters about nuclear weapons, Jake Tapper would drop everything to pitch a new series of books and Hannity would anchor ongoing special coverage until 2029 but when Trump does it it's just Trump being Trump!

Is the Epstein file Biden’s Katrina?

We've done this to death but COULD YOU IMAGINE if Joe Biden had said this about an appointee who HE appointed and who he was criticizing in public more or less daily.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

darth vader: (arm extended dramatically) join the dark side way too many people, way too willingly: ok darth vader: (quickly withdrawing arm) jesus christ

Preach!

If you actually think that no one disagrees on Bluesky then you're not seeing the disagreements between elite white liberals doing Olympics-level gymnastics to absolve Trump voters of any agency in voting for what's happening & the Hispanic & Black folks on here who are disagreeing with them.

Many are comparing the contemporary United States to Europe before World War II. But a better comparison is Europe before World War I, when the continent decided to self-immolate for absolutely no reason

In Biden's 2022 SOTU, he warned that Republicans wanted to cut Medicare and Social Security. Republicans booed him, and were indignant that he'd accuse them of such a thing. Now look where we are. (P.S. Is there a chapter in Jake Tapper's book about this?) youtu.be/BKeYcFk3bTQ?...

The original sin was failing to send Donald Trump to prison for the rest of his life for mounting a violent coup to overthrow the election of 2020.

The Ukrainians have done everything we asked in peace talks, while the Russians have done nothing except laugh at us and commit further war crimes. Now it’s time to reward Putin with a a bilateral meeting with President Trump. by Marco Rubio

The real winner in tonight's Wisconsin Supreme Court race? Florida governor Ron DeSantis.
