I think a lot of journalists and politicians thought that coming to Bluesky would get them praised and worshipped like it was 2017 Twitter and the fact that didn’t instantly happen has absolutely broken their brains

Has David Hogg spoken up about what’s happening in Los Angeles? Or the terrible way ICE is treating immigrants? Or the threats to Medicaid and Medicare? Or the loss of critical vaccines? Only stuff I hear him mention these days is whining about the DNC and complaining about the age of politicians.

"Elon is a genius", is the catchphrase by which a person confesses to you that they are in fact, the literal opposite of a genius

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

If you’re a North Carolinian, you can check whether your name or the names of anyone you know is on the list of the 65K voters whose votes may be tossed. You could have an opportunity to fix it if so.

one of the things i truly believe is that a significant portion of this country is in the grip of a death cult
"The vaccination has stuff we don't trust," said the father of the 6-year-old girl who died from measles at the end of last month. Tom Bartlett visited with a family confronting an unthinkable tragedy:

A little bit of delay because they were still switching over from the hockey game, but I finally made it inside! #mubb

Prepping for going to see #mubb later by watching my nephew's basketball game. It's fun seeing how excited 6 and 7 years- old are to play.

It's kind of weird how Trump getting impeached over trying to extort Ukraine disappeared from the discourse

I'm going to the Marquette game against Georgetown this weekend. I already got my ticket.

Some random person at Georgetown messaged me about discounted tickets with a sketchy email. If it is real, crazy that Georgetown has basically give tickets away. #mubb

As the military under Pete Hegseth rolls back recruiting for minority Americans remember that black women are the only reason the Army met its recruiting goals last year. Not enough white men qualify to even serve no matter volunteer. They'll learn when recruiting collapses and it ain't "wokeness."

Amidst the chaos and the law-breaking the most important thing to remember/focus on is that they are doing these things illegally because they know they don't have the votes to do it by passing laws, even in a GOP controlled Congress.

Just when I couldn't expect anything less from Tillis, he does this.
NEW

Senator Thom Tillis personally assured Danielle Hegseth that if she signed a sworn-statement about her former brother-in-law’s conduct that it would carry weight and could lead him, Murkowski, and Collins to vote NO on Pete Hegseth’s nomination.

He then became the 50th century to vote YES.

I've been telling people since the election that it isn't a bad idea to stock up on n95 masks.

I definitely would do it now. Tr*mp is convinced one of the reasons covid was bad was due to reporting cases. He going to try to do this with bird flu.

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.

I’m trying not to focus on the horrors already coming out of this Administration

But so far every single thing is exactly what he said he’d do

And what we told third party purists and lazy-ass nonvoters he’d do

And the press downplayed

And I hate them all with the fire of a million suns.
