Third party advocates are the dumbest of them all. Put aside their continous contributing to Republican victories by syphoning off swing state votes. They are now presented with a Republican party in disarray, the Democrats the only organized party capable of once and for all driving a stake into

Trump seeks to limit 2nd Amendment rights! In the ultimate irony, the 2nd Amendment, which was designed to arm citizens against tyranny but which has mainly been used to line the pockets of the gun industry, may be the thing that turns this country’s MAGA ammosexuals against Trump and his enablers!

Three dead in Minnesota
Gotta get down to it.
FED agents are gunning us down.
Should have been gone long ago

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

@leftcoastbob.bsky.social Agreed.
So many have not learned the lessons of 2016, 2020 and 2024. It makes me wonder if it’s stubbornness to admit they were wrong or just willfull ignorance because they secretly support Republican / MAGA goals?

Interesting point about the movie version of the Wizard of Oz.
In her dream, all the characters Dorothy interacts with have a real-world analogue except one: Glinda. Hunk, Hickory, and Zeke are Tin Man, and Cowardly Lion respectively.

Not the most important point but today's Epstein emails make it clear that Maxwell committed gross perjury in her interview with Todd Blanche, and it will still be within the statute of limitations when President (insert your favorite Dem) takes office in January 2029

@nicollewallace.bsky.social I disagree. It’s easy to demand that the fruitless shutdown continue if you haven’t been furloghed for over a month, don’t rely on SNAP subsidies to feed your family, or aren’t among those forced to continue working in a high stress job without pay.

When Netflix finally produces a series based on my Twitter Twilogy, Colin Farrell (who I originally envisioned as Detective Arkaby) would now be excellent as the murder victim Willum Grainger!
