Yes! So bad on so many levels!
This is a good theory. Makes sense to me. Plus, he can dump the guy nearly everyone hates.

Thanks! I didn’t know about him or about Portside!
Israel murders journalists. Keep their voices alive. #JournalismIsNotACrime
Having a bad day?? Here's a pick me up... 😊 #bluesky #nature #babygoats
I’m sorry, Shannon.

He sounds terrific! Cautiously optimistic for Maine!
Oh my God! 💯
I always wondered whether they understood that the government overreach they were going to fight wasn’t coming in the form of university professors and social workers, but in the form of police and soldiers (that is, their heroes).
As a friend recently put it: the venn diagram of people who assured us the gun violence was worth it because we need the guns to protect ourselves against a tyrannical federal government and the people cheering on Trump as he deploys the military to take over American cities is a circle
Forced to marry their rapists and too young to legally obtain a divorce.
I’ll bet you real money that Missouri won’t let children under 18 get divorced. So that’s up to six years of “marriage”.
The answer was FEAST on Thanksgiving a couple of years ago, but they usually don’t make it that easy.
It’s because you are an exceptional person! 😊 Seriously, that’s amazing!
Sorry. I don’t mean to imply you didn’t know!
I’ve looked into moving to Canada for about 20 years, and I possibly could have done it with the guidelines then, but I would have had to leave my family. But I ❤️ 🇨🇦! 🦫 🍩 🍁 💕
So many more people need to see this image. I don’t know how they avoided knowing.
I’m amazed and saddened that so many people in the US are only now realizing starvation in Gaza isn’t a result of nature or Trump’s killing USAID. It’s Israel’s policy! (With plenty of US assistance.) #Genocide #FreeGaza
It’s not “allowed to happen”. Israel has chosen to starve Gaza deliberately. The US has chosen to pretend no genocide is intended. It’s all a choice.
There is no war. There’s only a genocide perpetrated by Israel. I know you don’t agree, but I choose not to let people tell lies without pushing back.
He’s not refusing to see it. Netanyahu is ordering the starvation of the people of Gaza. He’s chosen genocide, deliberately.
Or we could choose NOT to commit further ethnic cleansing.
Plenty of blame to go around. Especially Israel and the US.
This isn’t a food issue. There have been aid trucks lined up outside Gaza every day since the end of 2023. Israel won’t let them in. The famine is Israel’s choice. Genocide.
I disagree that justice ever involves starving people, especially civilians, and especially children.
Plenty of food waits just outside Gaza. Israel deliberately blocks food from going in. Israel is deliberately starving the people of Gaza. This isn’t an USAID issue. It’s a genocide by Israel.
The problem isn’t lack of aid. Israel has blockaded the borders against food coming in for more than a year. Israel & the US set up a handful of “distribution centers”, guarded by mercenaries who shoot & kill aid seekers. It’s deliberate starvation and murder.
The famine is man made, and Israel is 100% responsible. The bombs were courtesy of the US government. The hatred, who knows who is to blame for that? But most people on the US are ready to see the violence end. Yesterday.

Thanks for sharing some Bernie. He’s been outspoken for the Palestinians throughout.💕
You mean like these Senators? This was July 2025. zeteo.com/p/14-senator...

Bluesky right now ...
I wish Canada was open for more general immigrants, but I totally get why it’s not!
😳 Not good. ☹️

Trump and RFK jr won’t be happy until the country resets to 1850s Medicine = primative Slavery = enforced Motherhood = mandatory Education = optional Voting = White males only
Richard Ojeda, now running in NC. 🔥🔥🔥
🔥 @airborne1970.bsky.social : “When you get rid of SNAP benefits— what’s a poor family gonna do? The middle class has carried this country since Reagan said ‘trickle-down economics’. Time for the billionaires to carry this country. That’s how 🇺🇸 will get great. But not under this regime.”
Richard Ojeda. Formerly WV, now North Carolina! bsky.app/profile/talk...
Very interesting. Thanks. I had assumed he was still in WV. Hope he has a good chance!
Nice one! 👑
Ooh. Excellent idea.
If I recall correctly, she was one of his minions, then she told him how terrible the Smithsonian was, and he gave her the job of “auditing” it. I’m sure it wasn’t because of her extensive resume.
She’s also never studied history. If she had, she’d be ashamed, but that’s not something this administration is capable of.
I think that’s her whole mission. Whitewash the Smithsonian, then move on to who knows what?
Yes. It’s the continuation of Jim Crow. 🙁
Very on-brand for this administration, though. Might be on-brand for white women, too. At least the ones who voted for Trump. (White woman here, voted for Harris, but still feeling let down by MAGA white women.)
NEW: Last week, oil literally rained down on a Black town in rural Louisiana where 60% of folks live in poverty. The company isn’t taking responsibility & the federal + state governments are saying residents have to clean it up themselves. capitalbnews.org/louisiana-oi...
From this great story: “One of the plant executives’ daughters, Bethany Tate, however, said in a Facebook post that “no one was to blame.”
Fired with $250 severance, if I read correctly.
I would endorse your dog over this guy, and I don’t even know your dog. 😊
I have an extremely rude and blasphemous phrase I use for moments like slamming my fingers in a door. I’m saying it right now.
Agreed 100%. Only the statement about the foundations of public health cracking should say “crumbling”.
DNC always working for us. If “us” is Israel.
This is my new mantra: “One Day Closer”. No, it won’t fix everything, but it’ll fix the thing that’s making the world miserable in so many ways.
Thanks for the info, though!
Ugh. Why am I not surprised? The guy is an ethical disaster area.
it's truly wild that the Democrats have watched all the protest movements of the past few years and seen it as an opportunity to cultivate zero young leaders
I hope you’re right! They’ve disappointed me before (understatement). I know you know what I mean.

Robert E. Lee killed more U.S. troops in battle than Adolph Hitler and Osama bin Laden combined
Let me get this straight: Conservatives are so pissed about government overreach during Covid that they now sanction using the military to monitor citizens and ICE to kidnap people off the streets and lock them in concentration camps or foreign gulags?
Now there’s a cheery thought! Thank you, Eric!
A Palestinian was killed when Israeli occupation forces fired on civilians waiting for aid south of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip.
The reality is that bail doesn't keep people safe. It's not a system built on "justice." Instead, it perpetuates an endless cycle of poverty and jail time that ruins lives and makes communities less safe. Learn more here 👇 www.prisonpolicy.org/reports/inco...
I think they’re still starving them, unless I’m mistaken. I hope I am!
Israeli forces bombed the fourth floor of the Nasser Hospital at around 11 am local time (09:00 BST), then moments later, according to videos seen by MEE, fired a second missile deliberately at reporters, bystanders, and first responders who had gathered to help recover the dead and wounded.
Unhoused people need supportive services, not punishment.
The first thing everyone in this country who is anti-fascist can do now is to join something where people are already gathering to address any issue. Can't find anything you want to join, then make your own thing and invite people to join you. This is not a time for Lone Rangers.
Thank you for that wonderful thought!
Don’t forget his evil spouse, Katie. They were made for each other.
A disgrace to any profession. And any country.
Thank you! It’s so easy to sit here grinding my teeth. This helped immensely!
There’s a couch in the background; he was distracted.
That General Grant was a superior negotiator. Lee had no chance once they got down to bargaining.
Please, Macron, declare Kushner persona non grata and ask for a replacement ambassador from the US! 🙏🏻
I knew what you meant. And I’m hoping the president is less resilient. 🙏🏻
This looks like a good place to chill... 😅😊 #dog #dogday #bluesky
If we don’t call people who are incarcerated what they are, what do we call them? Hostages? Or are we supposed to just forget they’re there? And people with food insecurity? They’re real, actually. I’m not going to ignore that.
Since this list came from Third Way, I think Democrats should consider the source and throw it in the trash.
Oh, I see. He objects to calling the bill “PUPP”. Geez, get a life!
Does Nichols object to using the word “people” to describe people experiencing homelessness”? I’m not seeing anything wrong with the title or the bill.
Words/phrases Democrats should never use: * bipartisan * my Republican friends * real, valid, legitimate, serious, important (to describe issue raised by Republicans) * yea (when voting on Republican bills) * distraction (to describe bad thing Republicans did) * woke (in derogatory sense)
Israel is conducting continuous airstrikes in Gaza.
The number of people who told me last year that ‘it can’t get any worse for Gaza.’ But it always could get worse, things can always get worse- and they have. We are now witnessing an official, full-blown, US-approved famine in Gaza. Shameful.
Thanks. I had seen a different report, but I’m convinced beyond a reasonable doubt. IIRC, the one I read was focused on her telling her husband she was headed to see him (the husband) but she didn’t show up for hours.
Don’t they mostly stand around in masks, threatening people? I’ve never seen ICE agents doing anything even this strenuous.
Black people are not a societal problem. Racism against Black people is.
He’s wanted to declare martial law from day one. Bypass all checks and rule as a tyrant. Many have speculated how he’d do it. Now his gambit is clear. DC was a test. He’s using manufactured crime stats to send troops into blue states & cities. This is not a drill. Democracy is at defcon 1.
I would enjoy trying to find a vein… For as long as possible!
I would volunteer to start his IVs. I have no experience with needles, which would make it just that much more fun for me!
