The White House has been caught.

The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.

In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

I wanted to share this particular cartoon done today. She's a fighter, my sister, for ALL the right things... and I'm deeply proud of her.
Warning: Alternate Reality Shark Cartoon. Hoping more people will WAKE UP to what “47 & his cohort” are doing to our country

This should be shared everywhere, since I'm really curious about the answers that those voters will have.

I stand with Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde!
Today, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde boldly called out Donald Trump for his hatred and bigotry at the National Cathedral Prayer Service. Now, the GOP is attacking her for speaking truth to power.

REPOST if you stand with Bishop Budde against Trump!

As an Expat I was SO EXCITED 4 years ago to witness Mr Biden's Inauguration. Was he the perfect President? No, but he was an honest one & personally had skin in the game, exactly what we needed. This Monday I just want to avoid being smacked in the face with that lying bully felon & its lying mob.😡

Me, too.
I'm gonna share this cartoon again simply because Jeff Bezos' Washington Post tried to censor it.

I really like being here. I am no prude, BUT, as a former English teacher, there must be a way for the great posters on here to do so without using profanity as every other word! The English language is vast & descriptive. USE those words, please, because I've just blocked the offensive ones. 😁

Early this morning, three russian missiles struck Kharkiv. Now, hours later, russian troops are attacking the city with aerial bombs. Several explosions reported in my hometown💔

I would be deeply grateful if you could lend your wings to my words - read, retweet, and help carry my Kharkiv post further. Your support breathes life into my words and purpose into my voice.
Kharkiv is a city that forces you to make a pact with fate: you will live as though death isn’t watching. And when you leave, you carry its sirens, its defiance, and its haunting beauty inside you forever.

Not giving up!
Reminding people to build true connections in real life & to keep their mental health stable is vital. Removing social media that is only toxic & perpetuates propaganda is vital as well.

But don't mistake this as a excuse to cover our eyes & ears.

We are fighting better. Smarter.

Not giving up.

The Trump criminal cases were sabotaged by a SCOTUS he stacked and a judge he nominated.

MAGA folks are going to try to gaslight that the cases against Trump “fell apart” as opposed to the truth.

FWIW I will only refer to Trump as “our criminal president” and I suggest every Democrat do the same.

Is there any way to bookmark a post so I can find it later? Like the searchable directory?

I must say, finding most of the brilliant people & organisations that I followed on the 'other' platform already here is so... encouraging. Even some of my long-standing FB people are moving! But what is most setting is the inordinate number of nasty replies and threats that have gone away.

Democrats, take notes.
Māori MPs briefly suspended the Aotearoa parliament’s attempts to reinterpret their founding treaty in the most bad ass use of the Haka I’ve ever seen.
