Let's see
Leaving this here for folks that think the GOP is “good” for the economy!

Per Simon Rosenberg’s simondwc.bsky.social Hopium Chronicles: “Since 1989 52 million jobs have been created in America. 50 million, 96%, have been created under Democratic Presidents. Essentially all of them, over 36 years”!

Markwayne Mullin on Hegseth’s drinking:

TAPPER: Drinking at 10 in the morning, that’s a drinking problem.

TAPPER: A drunk reporter who is drinking at 10 AM…is not in charge of the 3 million person defense department.💥

JOURNALISTS FLOCK TO BLUESKY

“We have posts exactly the same on Twitter & on Bluesky & Bluesky is getting 20 times the engagement or more than Twitter. Seeing a social media platform that doesn’t throttle links really makes it clear how badly we were being limited”

“Trump voters alarmed at losing their Healthcare?”
Sorry, not sorry but not a shred of sympathy for the willfully, ignorant and profoundly stupid Trump voters
But profound sorrow for all the innocents who will be affected, infected & harmed by #MAGAts & #GOPFascists
