NEW from veteran journalist and author of COURIER's Stop the Presses newsletter @markjacob.bsky.social:

"There won’t be a group text message to notify us if a dictatorship descends and democracy dies. So here are some signs to watch for."
How to know if you’re living in a dictatorship

It’s Sunday, so let’s share the good word:

If churches want to play politics, they can pay taxes like the rest of us. God doesn’t need a tax break, but millionaire pastors sure seem to love one.

Pres. Carter was a true civil servant. He did so much to help others including his work with Habitat for Humanity. It’s incredible to think how many lives he touched with that alone.

I wish more modern politicians understood that public service is supposed to be FOR the people not for themselves.

President Biden appointing 61 Black LIFETIME judges during his time in office is a serious flex.

He understood the damn assignment.

Hi bluesky! I'm Jessica Denson, the woman who first defeated Trump in court when he was president last time. His mass censorship weapon of choice went down on my watch. I'm not taking this lying down. Who's with me?

Hello Blue Sky - please please tell me you’re smiling for me.

What’s the 411 here? Word count? Best accounts so far? Any screenwriters here? Are there lots of cat and dog pics?

Say “yes” to that last one and let me add…Finnick, Gizmo, and Binx are pro love, pro dem, pro change (and so am I).
