My first principle for the new year: When it comes to issues involving democracy, I do not seek compromise with Republicans. There is no middle ground between a firefighter and an arsonist.

This. Trump nominated Gaetz in large measure for greater control over him and the Justice Department. Mob boss gonna mob boss.
Here's the take on Gaetz that nobody is making: He was nominated for AG, BECAUSE he paid for sex. That privately known fact, had it not been publicly shared, would have rendered him compromised and therefore pliant and dependent on the dear leader, which the dear leader LOVES.

12 years ago a man walked into Sandy Hook Elementary and killed 20 children and 6 educators.

In 349 days this year, there have been 482 mass shootings, and 1,335 kids killed.

We’ve learned nothing, except how much Republicans value gun lobby money over children’s lives.

Absolutely the truth!!!
Healthcare. Prisons. Veterans benefits. Schools. Police. News.

None of it should be for-proft.
I just don't think healthcare should be for profit. 1/

If we weren't at such a weird moment in history, the collapse of Assad's regime would be widely understood as a huge success for the Biden administration, which pursued sanctions on Russia and Iran as well as Syria, armed Ukraine and thus weakened Russia, and supported Syrian democrats and activists

Forgive me if this is petty but the next account I’d like to surpass here on Bluesky is CNN.

They helped normalize Trump at every turn and did nothing to help tell the truth about Kamala. Time to show them what we think.

Can you RT this and follow us if you haven’t. 💙🙏

These tomato workers get up as early as 3am to be able to work these tomato fields in the Stockton CA area. They come from Madera CA and even though it's very early, they come ready to work. #WeFeedYou

Donald Trump Just Said He Would Pardon The People Who Tried To Kill Me
I was an officer on January 6, 2021. I stood firm and defended our Capitol Building. Now, Donald Trump wants to pardon those who tried to kill me.

Since you will be bombarded with many Takes™️ about how this & the other things are unconstitutional & illegal, now is probably a good time to remind everyone that the institutions are not self-enforcing & 6 Wizards In Robes have decided that the words of the 14th Amendment do not mean what they say

“Before the attack, investigators said a suspect asked the teens if they spoke English. They were stabbed after they replied ‘No.’”
Have @nytimes.com or any other corporate media outlets bothered to report that a migrant teen boy was stabbed to death in the city after he was reportedly asked if he spoke English? www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

Little girls locked up in Assad's prison. Now free.
Unimaginable.

The liberation of the women/children section of Sednaya prison. Cut off from the world, they’ve no idea what’s happened.

A man shouts: “You are all free now. Don’t be scared. Go home.”

“What happened?” a woman asks

“The Regime fell. You are free.”
