Why is it that every disappeared US citizen is not front page news? At the very least we should have a little box with a count of the number of citizens who have been taken away and are not locatable and a link to a story with photos & min-bios, just as we used to do with military casually figures.
In Portland, Oregon, masked ICE GOONS abducted and vanished US citizen Gonzalo Catalan last week. Tragically, his family remains unaware of his whereabouts and has not received any communication from him as of today.

The vast majority of the immigrants who Trump is terrorizing have done nothing wrong. They came here to work, to give their families a better life. Trump should try acting like a President for once…

For anyone fooled by the exaggerations, here's video my husband took Tuesday as he was leaving court in Downtown LA about 5pm. It's an obvious statement, but apparently needs to be made: Our government should not turn the military on its citizens. #LosAngeles #Protests #BillofRights #ThisIsAmerica 🇺🇸

"The pitch for fascism is that voters can trade off human rights for prosperity. It was always a lie. Autocratic governments tend to underperform healthy democracies on economic metrics, precisely because corrupt leaders drain public coffers to benefit themselves."

Murphy: "If we continue to observe norms, if we continue to engage in business as usual, this democracy could be gone. I don't think we have a year to save American democracy. I think the way the president is acting ... puts out democracy at immediate risk."

1) @chrismurphyct.bsky.social asks his colleagues to recognize what has happened in the first six weeks. 2) The legislative and judicial branches do their jobs to stop corruption, or the executive branch continues at a level there's no coming back from.

The way DT behaved towards President Zelenskyy is the way he behaved towards Democrats during the presidential debates. Clearly he sees Ukraine as an opponent. He does not represent the majority of us. American people support Ukraine.
DT behaved similarly to his presidential debates by attacking President Zelenskyy during his visit specifically so he could halt aid to Ukraine. Anyone can watch 2018 Helsinki Summit videos when DT took Putin's side over our own American intelligence agencies to see this was a long time coming.

4y ago, many companies didn't want to be associated with anyone trying to topple American government. They stood up to it all. In less than 2mos, many companies have fallen down such a dark hole. In 1y, social media probably won't be used in the same ways it has been used since its creation.

Anything you can do for the Altadena, CA residents is much appreciated. These are our friends who lost everything, including their home art studio and work. 🙏

This is a solid point. DOGE is a coup in progress, not a government agency that's accountable to the American people.

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Trump is a One-Dimensional Negotiator

I'm going to get a little wonky and write about Donald Trump and negotiations. For those who don't know, I'm an adjunct professor at Indiana University - Robert H. McKinney School of Law and I teach negotiations. Okay, here goes.

🙌 Thank you, firefighters and first responders. SoCal residents appreciate you. Wherever you go, please speak up, so we can thank you in person. 💕

This is my 6th nightly post on Bluesky. I hope to stop missing Twitter (not X) soon. Good evening from SoCal. If you're having trouble relaxing, watch a comedy. The friends on the TV show Starstruck have the vibe of the friends in the film Notting Hill. And star Rose Matafeo should be in everything.
