E. Jean Carroll told trump no, but he sexually assaulted her anyway.

Greenland tells trump they're not for sale, but he continues to push the issue.

I'm seeing a pattern here.

NO MEANS NO.

We must all refuse to bow down to this wannabe dictator. We must never succumb to fear, or hatred. Not today. Not tomorrow. Never.

Thankful For You

He doesn’t give a crap about working families. He’s insane and not one of those misfit toys he’s assembled as a cabinet will stop him. 76 million ignorant Americans voted for this. Now they’ll find out.

So far, I've only had one questionable person that followed me and then slipped into DMs with personal questions. I blocked them. I was getting 10 to 15 per day on the other platform.

Canada's top military commander Jennie Carignan calls out the GOP for questioning women in combat: After 39 years as a combat arms officer and risking my life in many operations, I can’t believe that in 2024, we still have to justify women's contribution to defense and service in their country...

Sound familiar?

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election.

Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control
The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

The question it should prompt is whether it's ethical for journalists to hide that fact that they are hedging their coverage of Trump because they or their billionaire owner fear retribution.

But, of course, that isn't in the legacy media's interest to disclose.
🧵 Joe and Mika's journey to Mar-a-Lago prompted a question that many members of the media are quietly asking: Just how worried should we be?

More specifically, and practically, what preparations and precautions should news outlets take ahead of Trump's return to power? Here are some answers >>>

Protect their herd.

And ignore the haters that try to incite them.
