Ah yes. The #Brownshirts arrive. 48 hours after #kashpatel is appointed to turn the #FBI into a #Gestapo.

Who are these fine fellows with no ID, no legal authority but a clear mandate to dress in Brown Shirts and use violence against others?

Very gentle violence in this case.
During a GOP town hall at Coeur d'Alene High School, Teresa Borrenpohl called out, “Is this a lecture or a town hall?” Witnesses said three unidentified men, who were not wearing badges or ID, then physically removed from her seat by order of the Idaho county sheriff.

Has anyone mentioned that the number of measles infections can increase exponentially?

Measles has an R value of >12. So:
1, 12, 144, 1728…
Once it gets started, it can go fast.

MUST-WATCH: House GOP leadership refused to allow Rep. Brittany Peterson, who's on maternity leave, to vote remotely, but that didn't stop her.

She showed up, not only voted but also spoke out against the GOP budget proposal with Sam, who turned 1 month old today, in her hands.

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :)

Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Some of you are new here, so we’ll reiterate that on BlueSky we don’t tolerate trolling or insults, if we catch anyone being cruel, disruptive or purposely trying to sabotage, they will be muted then subsequently removed. This isn’t X, let’s have some decorum.

Black excellence: Twice as qualified, half as respected, and still passed over or labeled as a ‘DEI hire.’

Black folks have always known this because we’ve seen it happen to our own family members. I know I have.

Scholars, a question: with recent advances in science(s) and belief in what we will soon discover, would it be fair to say that, "the SIM theory, given our current base of knowledge, is carries a higher statistical probability of being 'true' vs any pagan religion."

Just like wisdom requires effort, so too will you have to take your life into your own hands to be happy. Live your values, take responsibility for your actions, and don't sit back. Make of life what you want, and recognise your freedom.

If I had two hours for every, "You should've..." I've received, I doubt I'd have received any "You should'ves..." the irony.
