Michele Riv formerly mama_pause 🧵& dead bird app
@rivet-em.bsky.social
I’m a mom, social worker /psychoanalyst, aspiring writer, traveler. Kamala, then Warren Democrat in 2020. Dead bird app refugee. Salty language sometimes. Fk the patriarchy. Ted Lasso is my escape. Also on threads as mama_pause.
No DMs.
MLK’s words could not be truer today as we watch 8 Senators voting to give Republicans exactly what they want with a Susan Collins level of denial that they are going to get some sort of bipartisan deal later.

Strategy/branding idea:

Set up microphones in view of the demolition of the East Wing. Make sure Americans see that image every day.

Politics is influenced by images now over policy.

It is the perfect metaphor. Elon used ⤵️

Congratulations, @repjeffries and @senschumer.

You didn’t listen to YOUR base and tried to negotiate with a terrorist.

You allowed him to humiliate and diminish you.

Turn over the reins to AOC and Chris Murphy.

It’s actually kind of hysterical that Trump and his goons are trying to say that the left has this highly organized terrorist network.

Anybody who’s ever been a Democrat knows that trying to get people in our party to act together is like herding cats. 🐈‍⬛

I wonder if Krysten Sinema has any regrets about helping Republicans block changing the filibuster to pass the John Lewis voting rights act in 2021. Now, we face Illegal gerrymandering for midterms & section 2 before the Trump SCOTUS which will virtually destroy what remains of the voting rights act

I’m trying to understand what’s up with engagement at @bsky.app

I have more than 3x as many followers here that I do on threads. I haven’t even been posting on 🧵until just recently when I did an experiment.

This same post had only 2 likes here, but went a bit viral over on threads with 1M+ views.

You know who benefited from food stamps when he was a kid?

This guy.

Talk about pulling the ladder up behind you.

On this 4th of July, the country couldn’t be less free.

Thousands of terrified brown people are sitting in detention centers and a brutal Gulag in El Salvador, for no crime other than the fact that they have brown skin..

I refuse to pretend like this is just a normal holiday to “celebrate.”

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov you can either listen to the crowds on the streets, the young people that came out in huge numbers in New York and your base or you can continue to move right out of fear. That has never worked except for Bill Clinton.

Be FDR, not Clinton in 2025.

One of the many problems with having a president that has no core values is he changes his mind on a whim based on whoever talked to him last. He throws things into chaos and his goons scramble.

Stephen Miller wants numbers.

No mercy.

It looks like Stephen Miller won and we have another TACO.
