Gen-X living the California dream.
Working on the next assignment.

Hello Everyone,

It took a while for me to join Blue Sky, but here I am. Who am I?

I’m Gen X, married, father of one daughter and two sons.

Being neurodivergent, I’m constantly learning and exploring, picking up new hobbies along the way.

It should be part of our social media good practices that if there isn't a link to a legitimate news source, we should not be reposting stuff.

And this is why I say the Republicans have lost it. It’s their duty for oversight, they know the constitutional protections they are sworn to protect are being abused yet won’t even show up to listen.

They have failed their oath and should never hold office.
Also testifying were Marimar Martinez, who was shot five times in Chicago, Aliya Rahman, who was violently attacked in Minneapolis while trying to go to the doctor, and Martin Daniel Rascon, who was shot at in California while driving with his family.

The plan:
1) Hire the right wing militia into ICE.
2) Change USPS rules to confuse and invalidate mail in voting.
2) Send new ICE terrorists to every key swing state
3) Invade blue cities to suppress turnout

Steal as many races as possible in the elections.
Wanna bet scumbag????

ICE agents are not being paid?
Don’t care about that, but the point made about embezzling the money from the BB Bill makes me wonder.

🗣️ @chrismurphyct.bsky.social on FOX: “Minnesota is a dystopia. ICE is tear gassing elementary schools, disappearing legal residents, murdering 🇺🇸 citizens. They are making us less safe, not more. This is an emergency. The constitution is being abandoned by this administration.”

Is it because they feel they have a good plan to disrupt/steal the ‘26 election, that there is no constituency they care about pissing off?
