Taoist. Not a religion. We don't attack but we don't offer the other cheek and believe in defending our country when it is under attack, as is the case right now.

We lost the elections. You are coming from X where we were abused. You still believe you are a democrat but frankly, what have they done besides wasting $2 billions to lose, again? They did it by courting Republicans as if any republicans besides war criminals, would join them. New Deal anyone?

Mike Johnson just said that Jimmy Carter was in the Army! Wrong he is the only president to ever graduate from the Naval Academy! He was on one of the first nuclear submarines ever.

Underappreciated angle to the appointments of Patel, Gaetz, Bondi, et al.
Massive Fuq U to institutions …
But also a huge FU to the Supreme Court, because Trump doesn’t think they will be a check on his campaign of lawless retribution.
Nice work, John Roberts.

I'm new here but I notice people still insulting the people who voted for Trump. They won; twice. It would be stupid of us not to understand why we lost. We lost because Reagan rolled back the New Deal and we let it happen. Bernie Sanders would have beaten Trump. Clinton knew better like Bill, NAFTA

Twitter didn't gain relevance by being the biggest platform, it gained relevancy through the quality of the content and individuals. The main goal for everyone here should be to encourage global defender, media, and establishment accounts to transition to #BlueSky. That'll provide legitimacy.
