New Roanoke College poll of Virginia out this morning finds Donald Trump at his highest level of disapproval in either term — 59%.

Just 37% approve, he’s 22 points under water. Virginia elections including for Governor and Attorney General are just over 8 months away

I don't care much about non-voter culpability but I have to point out that getting angry with someone chastising non-voters, engaging with the rhetoric from a pro not voting stance and then saying "lol I voted idiot" as a gotcha is rapidly entering my top five list for cringe Bluesky behavior.

The only reason a person should be responding to optimism, calls for action, or celebration of wins with "crimes don't matter", "voting? that's cute", or "enjoy martial law" is if that's the future they want, if they want Trump to be normalized. Block them.

I'm about three more posts away from blocking anyone who says martial law. I've read like a dozen posts about it today from people who legitimately think Trump is in a position to declare it, and that somehow it just will magically subjugate the whole country over night. Like, fuck. Come on.

Just held a town hall with the Wisconsin Farmers Union. They invited all the elected officials in the area. Unfortunately, no Republicans showed up, including Rep. Van Orden and Rep. Tiffany. youtube.com/shorts/R3_X8...

If someone has spent the last three weeks angrily demanding protests, Dem electeds standing up, and major legal action, and instead of amplifying those things when they happen they move the goal and pretend nothing has happened, they aren't an ally, they are grifting you for engagement.

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.

I was under the impression Elon Musk just played a pipe while sashaying through the streets of some sundown town and the homeschooled kids just followed behind him off towards Washington.

Pretty sure an account I really enjoyed reading blocked me for dooming because I said that Trump voters would be willing to believe Obama is responsible for economic woes but would eventually push back when there was no solution offered.

Which is lame. But I get it.

THIS IS IT. The special general elections for Florida’s 1st & 6th Congressional Districts are on APRIL 1, 2025. If we flip these seats, we can STOP Project 2025. No excuses! Mark your calendars! Show up!

"There's a reason Trump doesn't seem to care about elections!"

Dementia. The answer is dementia. It's why he doesn't care about literally anything. Threats to himself and his power, his previously stated goals, hus coalition, his wealth. Totally unplugged, not evidence of 'canceling elections.'

Anti-DOGE rally getting underway now outside the U.S. Department of Labor, where DOGE was reportedly scheduled to have a meeting today.

Big turnout from AFGE, one of the federal unions in Trump’s crosshairs.

An unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government.

DOGE is not a real government agency.
DOGE has no authority to make spending decisions.
DOGE has no authority to shut programs down or to ignore federal law.
DOGE’s conduct cannot be allowed to stand.

In light of the Trump Administration’s recent actions, I know many of you are worried and uncertain. There’s a lot to discuss so I’m hosting a telephone town hall specifically on issues related to the federal workforce this evening at 6pm.

Today my least favorite doomer vibe is the ides that if Trump/Musk said they expect a certain result for a wild and crazy action, that's the 100 percent guaranteed result and it isn't worth discussing.

Mainly in regards to "no they aren't making mistakes they WANT chaos!". Both things can be true.

Sorry to end the fun, but I'm blocking the Trump supporter cosplaying as a leftist. The bold faced lies and goal post dancing was fun at first, but I'm out of time to kill.

NEW: Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it.
