Hi Bluesky. I just released my short film after spending far too long making it. It's a short drama that's loosely based on real events in my life.

The amazing thing about Trump is that he says right into the camera on the White House lawn while stone cold sober the sort of stuff Nixon would only scream in solitude at the White House fireplace after a bottle and a half of whiskey.
JON KARL: What do you make of Pam Bondi saying she's gonna go after hate speech? A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech

TRUMP: We'll probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly. You have a lot of hate in your hate. Maybe they'll have to go after you.

When I was a kid, my uncle—a lifelong Republican—used to take my cousins and I golfing with him and his friends, let us drive the carts while they played.

He would tell us every time that golf was important to him as a businessman because if someone will cheat at golf, they’ll cheat at anything.

🚨🚨🚨 BREAKING WSJ:

The DOJ told Trump in May that his name is IN the Epstein Files.

When Justice Department officials reviewed what Attorney General Pam Bondi called a “truckload” of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein earlier this year, they discovered Trump’s name appeared multiple times.

A Nazi owns Twitter, right wing billionaires own the Wall Street Journal and the LA Times, and CBS is run by a right wing nepo baby who just fired one of the network’s biggest stars for criticizing Donald Trump. Here’s why America has a left-wing media bias problem.

Share a piece of lore about yourself.

Whilst watching Dune in the cinema, I nearly got in a fight with a drunk woman because I told her to be quiet as she was chatting to her husband.

I punched a guy in the face at my friend Shannon's wedding because he called her fat at the ceremony.

My favorite is the time I watched ARACHNOPHOBIA at the house of Mick Mars from Mötley Crüe because that was so random.

Describe your favourite film I'm the most misleading way possible.

A few people hike towards a lighthouse and go a little too far with things. Then some people do the same thing again, but this time reach the lighthouse.

#TussleTuesday Post a fight scene huh?

I'm proud of this one. For context, the briefing proves that Rowan is a plan inside their cult.

I see things like this and I realize that some people in the US don't understand how bad it is for them. Everyone not in the US can see you're not having another fair election.

You're currently under a dictatorship, you aren't fighting the opposite political party, you need to be fighting fascism.
The default Dem position should be that nothing under Trump is valid.

Trump didn't honor his predecessors' agreements. He didn't even honor his own trade agreements. He didn't honor Congressional appropriations. He doesn't follow laws.

Clean slate. If you rely on him, your loss.
Fully on board with dems running for office promising to reinstate fired federal employees and jail this administration’s various criminals, but let’s go ahead and add “we will seize by eminent domain any national parkland sold to developers”

Canadians are now labeling food with a “T” symbol if it’s American and impacted by tariffs. RIP American-made food sales.

This is about so much more than policy. It’s about common decency and morality.
