he's an immigrant superhero created by two Jewish kids whose parents fled persecution, and his overriding concern is helping people

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.
Vice-President JD Vance confirms he has joined BlueSky.

Yeah. This isn’t about pornography.

Project 2025 lays the plan out very clearly that step one is pornography, and step two is to define public displays of anything that looks LGBTQ as pornographic. Pornography is a trojan horse to criminalize queers.
I’ve been doing politics in Utah for almost 50 years and if there is one thing I’ve learned it’s this:

Those obsessed with pornography turn out to be obsessed with pornography

I have reached the point that "please call your representatives" means that representatives and senators supposedly on my side are so completely the fuck out of touch they don't recognize good policy from bad and only care about getting along with Republicans.

And I get angry.

Something that bothers me about the crowd that insists we can just bring manufacturing jobs back to the US is that they assume these jobs are easy. I promise you if the average American was asked to do a garment workers’ job for one day, they would give up.

journalists should assume the admin is lying. judges should assume the admin is lying. Dems voting on appointments should assume the admin is lying.

So let’s be very clear about this - DOGE isn’t saving America money. It is now among the costliest domestic programs in our history; and certainly the most significant wealth destroying.
🚨 Big SCOOP 🚨

Tax revenue could fall by as much as **10%** this year, per sources, as taxpayers and businesses see the Trump admin as less likely to challenge tax cheats.

That'd be **$500 BILLION** in lost revenue.

It'd nearly double the tax gap in a single year.

Staff cuts and disruptions related to the U.S. DOGE Service have officials bracing for a sharp loss of revenue.

Can’t get over how great this is.

People who say they don’t understand what we want Dems to do: do this. Make them sound as dumb as they are, attack, don’t use caveats or hedge, stand up for the people you say you protect, act fucking mad.
I'm sorry but Jasmine Crockett saying, F"ind a little trans child that is ruining your life!" is well giving me life. She is both very right and very funny.

I’m not leaving the Dem party. I’ve been here for 33 years. If guys like Schumer wanna vote with republicans, THEY can leave the Dem party and join the GOP.

I get the instinct to tell them to go to hell but in our two party system it’s much easier to take over one of the existing parties than it is to start from scratch.

I’d like to ask every single New Yorker who’s remotely left of center to get actively involved in your local Democratic Party chapter with the goal of driving Schumer, Gillibrand, Hochul, Adams, Cuomo and all the other dead wood into retirement.
