Hey friends! I love writing about important things on BlueSky because it encourages me to be brief.

But you'd better believe I'm gonna hit that character limit every time I have something useful to say.

Democrats: "Fine - don't wanna vote for us because of our stance on Gaza? How about we become EVEN MORE Republican?

Take that, leftists."

This is bizarre. Trump is asked if he believes his authority allows him to give orders the cabinet members are obligated to follow. He replied, "Oh, they'll follow the orders. Yes they will."

"No exceptions?"

Trump feigns a joke and follows with "No exceptions."

One thing I appreciate about DVD movies is all the extra features and special bits.

Ben Stiller as Derek Zoolander in the DVD menu: "If you want to watch the movie, press 'Play'! I know what you're thinking, why does it say Play if it's a movie? A lot of these buttons were made in the olden days."

“DOGE did not share classified information, any assertion to the contrary is a lie,” said the spokesperson.

Why then is the National Reconnaissance Office's information still live on doge.gov?

17 states are suing the federal US government over Section 504, which requires organizations receiving federal funding to treat people with disabilities fairly. The claim is that disallowing discrimination is in conflict with the Constitution.

I.E. "It's our right to mistreat disabled people."

Wtf

Yay!

Christian South Dakota Senators shut down a bill requiring teaching of the Ten Commandments in grade school.

Rep. Mulder, R-Sioux Falls (a pastor), said the church can speak for themselves, and the Legislature can’t ask people who don’t believe in Christ to “act out the Ten Commandments.”

Our legal system is built on a shared agreement to rules - doing things to bypass those rules means we're no longer in the same social contract.

When Trump is called a "threat to democracy", it is literal and figurative - in the second, that collective trust in this democratic system is eroding.

There's no significant "center" constituency between Republicans and Democrats anymore. Pulling won't show you what people say when you ask. People feel they can't trust the government, they feel their finances are insecure, and they are discouraged by "business as usual". This won't work.
No one has tried this before, let's see how it plays out.

I heard from former state congressman that as far as new legislation, calling your Senator or Representative may not be the right move. He said the best opportunity to give feedback on a new proposed legislation is to speak during the committee meeting, no matter who's on the committee.

Annie Porter shares perspective as an employee of the Office of Personnel Management, which is currently being gutted by Elon Musk and his friends. Apparently, it's not working out the way he'd hoped.

Operation ICE Ride-Along isn’t going as planned. 🔥

Fox News tagged along with ICE, hoping for an exclusive look at “dangerous criminals.” Instead, they got a whole lot of nothing. No threats, no big arrests—just a community that wasn’t having it. The narrative is falling apart.

Going to work feels strange right now - what am I doing and why does this matter? I feel a sense of guilt for not "doing anything" but I'm doing everything I believe I can right now. Who cares about bugs in software or data quality issues right now? Why does that seem like the most important thing?
