This clutching of pearls every time a government official lies is making my eyeballs ache from rolling them so much.
The cost of freedom is eternal vigilance. The USG has lied since before it began. Get over it. we need to push the news media to ask every person in gov if they are lying or not.

You should rewatch the #IT movies. When I did, I couldn’t help but be reminded of Trump. Bad hair (tho his is blond), bad face (tho his is orange), no morals, spreads chaos, lots of lying and I think we can beat Trump the same way—by making him small. Just post how you think he’s a pitiful tiny man.

Why doesn't @bsky.app allow us to edit our posts? Most other social networks let you edit at least for a short time after posting. I don't understand the time limit but any ability to edit just makes sense. So much better than making us delete the post and reposting it.

About to see the #LucBesson directed #Dracula movie with my wife and, thinking about the last couple Besson movies I saw, *maybe* I should have checked some reviews? AH WELL, too late now! Wish us luck!!

Last night my wife & I finished watching #ITWelcomeToDerry. Tonight we rewatched #IT (2017). Both were surprisingly topical. The people of Derry pretend the horrible things happening in their town are NBD, just like the MSM, Congress, SCOTUS is doing. Trump is a near perfect analog to Pennywise.

This is a remarkable @nytimes.com split screen:
A huge 3,526 word + photos profile on Sen Britt who "can't stop thinking about the boy ICE detained"
But Rep Jaoquin Castro- who actually got Liam Ramos out of detention & back home- gets no interview, no pix, just 116 words inside a story. WOW.

If you know any MAGA who are familiar with Shakespeare's plays (they *must* exist, right?) show them this video of #IanMcKellan (#Gandalf, #Magneto) performing a monolog that Shakespeare wrote 400 years ago. Hell, you should watch it, too! It's damn topical. www.instagram.com/reel/DUYOLuh...

I love how streaming services don't let you screenshot on your device. Ironically, D+ let me get this screenshot of just the subtitle of a moment from the new #MuppetShow. Definitely an adult joke! That's Sabrina Carpenter's line and she says it to Kermit! Go watch it on Disney+ RIGHT NOW!

This needs to be verbally repeated in front of every news report whether it's from the MSM or indy news online.
This is your daily reminder that Donald Trump, the president of the United States, is in fact, both a convicted felon and an adjudicated sexual predator.

Marimar Martinez is a hero.
She was shot 5 times by ICE.
The agent told her to “do something b*tch” before opening fire.
He later bragged “5 shots, 7 holes”.
DHS tried to smear her reputation but video footage vindicated her.
Next week she will testify in Washington about ICE’s brutality.

If only Republicans in Congress cared. If only Democrats could convince Republicans to care.
A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

I was just pondering yesterday that the White House's spokesperson for the Twin Cities occupation being Greg Bovino -- one of the most loathsome people in America -- was a pretty grim sign. The fact he's being demoted shows that normal political incentives still work at least to an extent.
