Mark, they’ve picked the wrong man to harass.

You embody patriotism, skill, courage and the American ideal. You’re as solid as Mount Rushmore.

The regime are incompetent Nazis. They are Stalag 13 on a good day.

Hegseth isn’t fit to shine your shoes.
I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.

If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

I hate MAGA from the core of my being. I am a White cis/het man, but they will still come after me if they get the chance. Just like their Nazi idols MAGA targets the neurodivergent. Every ICE agent needs to go to prison for crimes like this:
A mother and her 15 year old autistic son are reunited after nearly 50 days apart.

Emmanuel Garcia went missing, and rather than check missing person’s reports, Houston PD called ICE.

ICE sent him to the Office of Refugee Resettlement and his mom has been fighting to get him back ever since.

Corporations are one of the worst fictions in our World. Whenever a corporation does something evil, real flesh and blood people made that decision. These people should be held accountable. When a corporation murders tens of thousands of people, the people who made that decision should go to prison.

An older watercolour drawing from when I used to make frequent trips to sketch in London. This shows the Embankment with lots of pigeons, a pavement artist and a couple of Japanese young women on one of the benches. This was sold at an exhibition.

Comey: "I'm grateful the court ended the case against me, which was a prosecution based on malevolence & incompetence... I was inspired by the career people who refused to be part of this travesty. It cost some of them their jobs, but it preserved their integrity, which is beyond price"

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.

The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.

It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.

Textbook corporate greed.

We are fighting hard to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits.

Republicans have zero interest in making healthcare affordable for everyday Americans.

You deserve better.

Hell NO! This 28-point plan gives Russia everything—land, lifted sanctions, and blocks Ukraine from joining NATO, and more. Trump is pressuring Ukraine to accept or lose U.S. support, with a Thursday deadline. Call your Reps and Senators to stop it: 202-224-3121.
Key elements in Trump’s 28-point peace proposal and why much of it is unacceptable for Ukraine
An American proposal to end the war in Ukraine puts the country in a delicate diplomatic position — caught between placating its most important ally, the United States, and not capitulating to Russia,...

How about this: Ask Trump to name 3 specific things in his “peace proposal” that he demanded Ukraine accept by Thursday.

There are 28, so 3 should be easy.

We can fully blackout for 7 days.
Black Friday sales are reported by every major market within 24hrs.
Blacking out one week (of 4) in the month of November would be a phenomenal example of unity.

Dear Bluesky Friends,

I hope you are well.

Teacher @jmuilenburg6.bsky.social is an advocate for her students. Now her students are facing the greatest hardship- a lack of food. Please help this amazing teacher who is going at all lengths so her students have food during the Thanksgiving break.

Below is the video to which Trump has responded:

“SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!”
We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Don’t give up the ship.

I just received my food delivery that I was able to purchase because I RECEIVED my SNAP benefits today. I sobbed. I didn't expect that reaction. I cried for the relief of having access to food but it was ALSO for the 42M under so much stress and for the MILLIONS who have NOT received their benefits.

Congress dropped a so-called "minibus" deal to end the 40-day shutdown but it's a surrender disguised as progress.
It funds veterans and agriculture but abandons the 20 million Americans who rely on ACA subsidies for health care.
A Band-Aid won't fix a bleeding nation.
