I don't expect them to start anytime soon either.
I do however expect Bluesky's lawyers to take note that hosting content which violates federal law may implicate them in future lawsuits, when/if the rule of law is restored.

Approximately 10,000 people marched to the Capitol on January 6th.
That means very likely *your city alone* has more people rallying to defend democracy today than the entire authoritarian faction was able to muster to destroy it.
Don’t ever let them make you believe you’re in the minority.

Rural hospitals are at risk of shutting down because of federal Medicaid cuts, which means:
❌ Fewer doctors
❌ Longer drives to hospitals
❌ Delayed emergency care
Every Washingtonian deserves access to a hospital, no matter where they live.

'I don’t sleep well at night.' Washington’s rural hospitals brace for Medicaid cuts, possible closures

This is footage from today in MacArthur Park.
Minutes before, there were more than 20 kids playing — then, the MILITARY comes through.
The SECOND I heard about this, I went to the park to speak to the person in charge to tell them it needed to end NOW.
Absolutely outrageous.
