Good morning Bluesky. This is the dawn of a new day. Allies that have been allies for years cannot trust this nation with information any longer it seems, for fear of what it will do with that information. The erosion of trust is a bad thing. The world is watching.

Good morning Bluesky. Remember this when the spin doctors start to try and excuse the 20M people who will go hungry this year and the 50,000 Americans who die unnecessarily every year as millions will have to make decisions on healthcare or food.

Good morning Bluesky. Saw this today. Just curious. If you could leave, would you?

Definitely. This action shows he has lost the people and the Party.
#GVerse MoveOn calls for Chuck Schumer @schumer.senate.gov to step down from leadership.

“Around 80% of MoveOn members that the group surveyed said that Schumer should quit his leadership position.”

It is time to let someone else take the wheel & lead!
Progressive group MoveOn calls on Schumer to step aside
"Inexplicably, some Senate Democrats, under Leader Schumer's watch, decided to surrender."

Wow. Now, the despicable 8 are going on a media tour to spin their capitulation? Attempting to put the toothpaste back in the tube is impossible. They f&*ked up. They screwed the working class of this nation.
They heard you. They heard you roll over.
Democratic Senator Shaheen says "Hopefully the Republicans may hear us."

ICE shot a US Marshall. ICE, the most incompetent, ill-trained, dangerous goons in the nation are lawless and a national security risk. Period. This definitely has not had enough attention, IMHO.
November 11, 2025 at 11:44 AM
Wow. The nation is unsafe. Amnesty International warns the world of coming to the nation, but the FBI is worrying about copycat masked goons grabbing and kidnapping others like ICE. Geez.

Of course, Johnson, the pathological liar and christian, is already backpedaling and trying to back out of the deal. Call your Congress member now. 202-224-3121. Unacceptable.
In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

Smash. So, glad that Jeffries said what everyone with a brain was thinking.
Reporter: Dr Oz said that—

Jeffries: Who? Nobody who is serious in this country takes Dr. Oz seriously… I’m not going to respond to any comments from randos like Dr. Oz who is woefully unqualified.

50,000 Americans will die every year unnecessarily because of the despicable 8's capitulation. 50,000 Americans.
Yesterday night, 8 Democratic Senators broke the party line and voted with the Republicans to put an end to the shutdown.

Sen. Bernie Sanders posted a video explaining why this is a really bad compromise that will harm millions of Americans’ healthcare.

The "rules for thee, and not for me" party continues to flaunt the law and protect their criminal allies. Shameful abuse of power. Demand change. Demand accountability.
POLITICO: “.. Among those who received the ‘full, complete and unconditional’ pardons were Rudy Giuliani .. Mark Meadows, .. John Eastman and Kenneth Chesebro, .. Boris Epshteyn .. and Sidney Powell ..”

Good morning Bluesky. A day before Veteran's Day thought I would post this for the despicable 8 who caved and gave their lunch money to the bully and screwed over the millions that will now suffer as a result of their selfish decisions.
November 10, 2025 at 11:51 AM
Such a horrible situation. The despicable 8 capitulated and betrayed the nation that will now suffer doubling, tripling, and quadrupling prices for healthcare coverage. Unthinkable.
Never forget who sold us out:

Hassan
King
Cortez-Masto
Shaheen
Kaine
Fetterman
Durbin
Rosen

Sadly, the surrender and caving of those despicable 8 Dems asks more questions than it answers. They literally just handed over their lunch money to the bully. SMH. Greed, corruption, and incompetence over people.
I’m not surprised that they caved, but I am surprised that they waited until after gaining electoral momentum to do it.

Have to pay attention. Mainstream media is failing us daily. Do the research. Laziness is a choice nowadays. Suggesting that MfL won school board races nationwide is a blatant lie. ABC should be ashamed. Demand better. Demand a public apology. IJS.

This Veteran's Day I want people to think about how upside down this nation is. The extremists and the orange felon are paying ICE and not Air Traffic controllers, TSA, or the military and at the same time trying to starve families and children by defunding SNAP for no other reason than cruelty.
November 9, 2025 at 6:59 PM
Something to think about today as this nation prepares to celebrate Veteran's Day.
November 9, 2025 at 6:58 PM
How is this even possible? Think there needs to be neighborhood protection and patrols against ICE. IJS. Imagine neighborhood protection against these out of control goons.

Newsom: "Think about the state of mind of the VP. How do you square the circle when you go to a prayer breakfast? Old testament, new testament. What's the fundamental thing that connects John to Matthew to Proverbs? It's this notion of hunger, feeding the poor. It's central to advancing God's will."

Good morning Bluesky. This nation, flawed and ugly, has turned a corner. The present criminal regime is devoted to lawlessness and untold cruelty. They won't change. The people need to force change. Demand accountability. Pushback. Call Congress. 202-224-3121.
Schiff: "The president -- 'I'm going out to play golf.' One thing that is so shocking to me is that they're appealing to the Supreme Court for the right to cut off food from people. Who does that? Who works so hard to cut food from people who need it right now? The cruelty is part of the policy."
