I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Trump's plan to kick 16 million people off their health care is only the beginning.

If he guts Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act, it will hurt every American.

Emergency rooms will be overwhelmed, and underfunded hospitals across the country will shut their doors.

Hey you know how people made the Tesla brand radioactively toxic and crashed its entire corporate structure?

You can do that with authoritarian brutality and with neoliberal oppression and exploitation.

You chase these motherfuckers from society until all that’s left is something real and better.

Jon Ossoff has got the kind of inner fire I’m always looking for in leaders. He has it. This video demonstrates what I’m talking about.

Aliens could come to destroy us like “because you’re assholes” and I would say “yeah but look at how these things we feed ball up and hide their eyes from light with their cute little stupid arms” and the aliens would be like ”fair enough” and fuck off into the cosmos.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Traveling to places & meeting new people is pretty great, but also, have you tried laying on a couch for 12 hours, slopping spaghetti on yourself, shoving garlic bread in your mouth while you randomly fall in and out of sleep because you're trying to forget that ghouls are in control of the world?

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

"I'm scared for these federal employees. I want to warn everyone, I'm not sure Trump will obey the courts!" -Tim Waltz

There is no one, anywhere, who will "save" us. If this attempt to overthrow the United States government ends, it will be because American citizens stop it.

I chosen to believe that one of Donald Trump's greatest fears, after Butler Pennsylvania, as he ran for the 2024 election, was someone making the discovery that not only had he engaged in a mock assassination attempt, but that two people were killed as a result.

On social media, several Navajo Nation tribal members say they have had their nationality questioned. The accounts are not verified but Navajos who live off the reservation say they are concerned about being swept up in raids by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

A-ha re-recorded "Take On Me" 4 times before they were satisfied with it and they then released it to universal acclaim.

33 years later, their unplugged version makes it all the more poignant. Simply gorgeous.

Folks, Trump also wants to strip Natives of our birthright citizenship, and make no mistake, it’s because he wants to “drill, baby, drill” on our lands. By their logic, if we lose our citizenship, then we lose our sovereignty. This would open up millions of acres for aggressive oil & gas extraction.

I have and will continue to. But you know why I say it here ? Because @bsky.app is 30m strong and growing quickly. The collective wisdom and influence of users here is far greater than any individual democrat.

I can't say it enough. Bluesky can be the influence that can counter RW media.
No offense, Mark, but you have influence and power most of us don’t. Why don’t you speak up to those in DC you have connections with? Actions speak louder than words as you well know.
