I'm mom to 2 adults, the giver-of-food to a cat, the black sheep of my family, a Beatles fan. A Hufflepuff who loves sci-fi, fantasy, classic rock, Sherlock Holmes. And for the last decade, I've been someone who tries to warn others about the dangers of voting for a narcissist named Donald J. Trump.

After the election, I switched my donations from ActBlue to the ACLU.
The first message I’ve seen since 11/5 that’s sparked some hope & joy.

They have their stupid "perspectives" in the mainstream so much that we're getting at least 4 more years of Trumpism. And what is being trumpeted on Twitter is not sane conservatism. Let their ignorance die out. We have a republic to rebuild.
As the left flees and X loses broader relevance, it becomes a more overtly right-wing site, Ali Breland writes. But the right needs liberals on X in order to push conservative perspectives into the mainstream.

This is an abomination. The US is supposed to lead the world, not separate itself from the world. Once again, we'll be an international joke because we have an idiot and his sycophants "leading" us. 🤬
US higher ed, especially in STEM fields, would collapse without international students
UMass/Amherst (left) and Wesleyan University are both warning their international students to be on American soil before noon on Jan 20 -- Inauguration Day.

I worked in school nutrition when Michelle Obama suggested what I considered to be excellent changes to the SNP. The uproar was incredible. (And stupid.)
I’m just gonna say this. Before RFK dropped his bid to be the Democratic nominee for President to join Donald Trump, I took a lot of shit from the Right for suggesting many of the food chain changes they now love coming out of his mouth. Now they love the “nanny state?” #sheep

America would be a much better place if SOME people would stop freaking out over WHO we love, WHICH bathroom we use, and WHAT we do with our bodies.
It is nobody's fucking business but OURS.

Others are… a little outside the box.

I would gladly listen to their ideas and views if they were presented respectfully and intelligently. But they can't do that because all they have is hatefulness and name-calling. And veiled threats (sometimes not so veiled). The "playing chess with a pigeon" analogy is spot on.
Opinion - The problem with Bluesky: It won’t broaden our horizons: In the wake of Donald Trump’s election win, the social-media platform has enjoyed a surge of new users looking for an alternative to Elon Musk’s X. But will it be useful, if it just creates an echo chamber for the left?

So maybe Bob Woodward should report things that he knows instead of holding them for a book. That's not journalism. That's greed. At one time, I respected him as one of the journalists that brought down Nixon. Not anymore.

James, did you mean, like:
Stacking the Supreme Court with far-right justices who grant you immunity?
Suppressing voters to lock in one-party rule?
Getting the House Speaker to cover up crimes?
Demanding recess appointments and Senate compliance?
Or did your time machine just dump you in 2024?
