We’re behaving like a failed state and embracing lawlessness, cruelty, and corruption.

The White House proudly displays images of men on its lawn who have not received due process.

History will remember us as the nation that sold out democracy in exchange for money and power.

People need to be crystal clear about something: The requirement that the government ANSWER to a court on the legal basis for detaining someone is literally the core liberty right (habeas corpus). If the government says they don’t have to do that bc “national security,” YOU can be disappeared.

Sorry but I can’t w ppl who are more concerned w peacekeeping & defending every action of a wealthy privileged cishet white NFL player over speaking up when needed

No this isn’t “cancel” worthy of Travis. But it is criticism worthy.

It’s irrelevant in the grand scheme but is important to call out

the best part about bluesky is that, unlike twitter, it isn’t putting annoying bull shit designed to piss me off in front of me every 3 minutes

I think there’s a good chance that Trump’s narcissism will make Musk getting a bunch of attention intolerable and he’ll kick him to the curb. Those two egos can barely fit on the same planet.

imagine going to atlanta and bragging about being a cop
we went to kamala’s first thing in atlanta and her kickoff rally’s first talking point was that she was a prosecutor who was tough about border issues

pushing a shittier version of the republican platform is somehow not a great strategy

i completely understand anyone who believes that democrats do not care about them. what i do not understand is the delusion that republicans (particularly Trump) do
