Thinking the ripple effects of the recent ruling on federal judges' decisions not applying nationally. Are we witnessing a new political divide, creating a 3rd tier between states and the entire US? 🤔 #PoliticalDivide #FederalJudges #StateVsNation

It’s weird* that the president can just decide to put a huge tax on American businesses without congress even being a little bit involved.

* very unconstitutional

this is how the GOP got the foothold they needed to do what they're doing now — they started small, and understood that even the most backward school boards have a shocking amount of power
It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

This is so smart. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , thoughts ?

And if you see this. A reminder. This is not Twitter. You can engage here and have thoughtful discussions !

We all look forward to reading your thoughts
I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.

Look, I have no ill will towards the players or coaching staff of the Mavericks, they lost Luka as much as the rest of us. FU to Nico and the Adlesons and I will vote against any casino referendums for Texas and never buy another pair of Nikes.

My sports nuts have been thoroughly kicked. I don’t like trading Luka, but if you’re going to trade Luka by God, get some long-term value for it.

Brian Schottenheimer is far from who I had hoped would be leaving the Cowboys for the next few seasons. All I can do is wish him well and hope somehow Jerry saw something that absolutely no one else identified

Yesterday, we witnessed Bishop Mariann Budde stand firmly against Donold’s fragile ego. After calling out his blatant hypocrisy in her powerful sermon, Donold demanded an apology, like the whiny, snotty little baby he is.
Her response?

He is saluting and talking about the "future of civilization." What the fuck more do you need to understand? Should he have been speaking in German?
Another angle.

I don't know how you can deny it.

But trust me, anyone whitewashing this perfectly know what it was.

I want mindless comedies and brainless action movies to come back. We need more funny and laughs as there is enough drama and scary stuff IRL.

I’m not here to be political, at least not directly, looking for Humor, Music, Guitar and Bass, Vintage Cars, DFW and Miss. Sports as well as general hijinks.

I’ve made a lot of friends here since joining bluesky last year, and it’s been wonderful to be part of such a welcoming community, but it’s time to jettison them all now that actual celebs are arriving and I can suck up to them instead
