retired RN, mother to 3 incredible women, just your average white-haired old lady who reads, protests when necessary, gets outraged with evil politicians and corporations. Don't forget Ukraine! Minorities are our strength, not our weakness. Hitler was bad.
Sigh. What did the Senate Dems who betrayed their constituents get in order to feel good about going all Maga-mean on kids and sick people? No assurances from the GOP, the promise of stuff in the future. They lie! You gave up and got NOTHING for us, but what did YOU get personally?

are the key words "didn't vote?"
Just a reminder: millions of people who live in “red” states didn’t vote for any of this shit.

They don't care about the next generation. It's the power right now that matters. The Heritage Foundation has been in charge for years. We have a Pumpkin as president and that's what they planned.

@whitehouse-47.bsky.social waiting breathlessly for you to rename the white house to "the gilded house" "the house of golden idols," or maybe "Trump Palace." or "The House of Grift & Lies" Have some respect and dignity. America is embarrassed at you all.

Trump's new National Guard "Quick Action Response Team" sounds suspiciously like an Nazi SS-type police system.. What his masked ICE cadets can't do, the National Guard will. This sounds like Stephan Smith's playbook and it's terrifying.

It's about time, Susan should be very concerned.
Whew! Sen. Susan Collins should be “very concerned”

She showed up as the main guest at a ribbon-cutting in Searsport, Maine. It backfired.

The crowd was not happy to have her: “Shame. Shame. Shame.”

yes, yes, is this a new use for ivermectin?

It's surprising Trump could stay awake that long.
i am sure most of u have seen those clips of the creepily sycophantic cabinet taking turns praising president trump one after another but did u know that meeting lasted three hours and fifteen minutes lol

But taxing the rich would solve problems and lift up Americans. That is NOT the GOP's racist agenda. And when only white men with trad wives are left, who will work the factories, start small businesses, pick the crops and do the dirty jobs like working at the spa in Mar-a-lago?
I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.

No refugee underfunded a school.

No refugee closed a hospital.

No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.

We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!

Glad that you are able to travel the world and eat out. I can no longer afford to do that. My medicare supplements keep getting more expensive. I approve of your work, but I wish congress was saddled with rotten healthcare like the rest of us, but you have the best. you're spoiled.
On a plane and bored. Since there's so much terrible stuff going on, what's currently bringing you joy, bluesky?

I'll start. Traveling the world with my partner and getting to see all the beauty in it while we also eat so much delicious food.

truly terrifying. I don't even want to be on a highway anywhere near a Tesla.
In a horrifying article about the dangers of Teslas, one point stands out: Teslas automatically disengage self-driving mode <1 second before an imminent crash--not enough time for the driver to react, but enough for Tesla to deny responsibility for fatal crashes, since self-driving "wasn't engaged."

boy, is this on the nose. OK MAGA, let's see how many of you come rushing to do manual labor, harvest the crops, and really make America great like it was before Trump spoiled everything nice.
Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

Do you get it yet? He lies and he steals. It's all about how much he can take from anyone stupid enough to allow it. Some of us are outraged, not stupid. Where do YOU stand?
I sure as hell have noticed. How about you? 🤨

you'd do more good deleting Facebook
Help us cause some good trouble by doing a virtual Facebook “check-in” at Dade-Collier Training and Transition Airport today.

The more people who check in, the harder it is for surveillance tools to track who’s actually there. It’s a simple but powerful way to show up and support from a distance.

Not only should the whole bill be read aloud during session, but only those who sat through the full reading of the "bloated bigoted bill" should be allowed to vote on it. Come on! It's time to hold feet to fire, not write a harsh letter! This is life threatening for most Americans!
Hey @schumer.senate.gov

Democrats are “considering” forcing clerks to read the entire megabill on the floor?!

This shouldn’t be optional. Force the full bill reading.

No more “I didn’t know what was in it” excuses. Make every Senator sit through it and own it.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social
DEMOCRATS—hell yes, do it‼️

Force the full bill reading on the floor. No more Senators pretending they didn’t know what was in it when they voted.

📌 Senate Dems may make clerks read the entire budget bill out loud. Good. People want fight—this is one way to show it.

I grew up taking the Constitution for granted & assuming rights laid down in this document & fine-tuned over the years protected everybody. I no longer respect the House, Senate, Executive Branch, or the Supreme Court. Trump crippled the checks & balances and everybody let him do it. For what? $$$?
June 28, 2025 at 7:36 PM
more of this on all networks!
I'm going to try and communicate with my Republican colleagues in a new way.

please just cancel the silver alert and let him wander off.
Donald Trump hasn't been seen since he went golfing over the weekend - and apparently doesn't plan on doing anything tomorrow either.
