Which is exactly the average (or a bit under, which is 6) per day normally. This headline only gives ammo to Trump. Stop it. We have 3 million people.

Gas shouldnât be smelly. If you can smell it thatâs a problem. Means itâs not burning correctly or there is a leak.

Ashley Babbit dishonored her service by committing insurrection against her country. While her death is absolutely tragic and I wish it hadnât happened, the Air Force giving her honors is in itself a dishonor.

Trump's troops are making federal cases out of low-level arrests â such as possession of an open container â in DC. Meanwhile, his administration has rolled back enforcement actions against 165 lawbreaking corporations since January. "Tough on crime."

As soon as Trump was elected, @davidcorn.bsky.social warned us that he would need a police state to turn his authoritarian dreams into a reality. With the occupation of DC and threats to invade other US cities, we're seeing Corn's predictions come true in real time.

Why is it that 26 women can credibly accuse Trump of sexual misconduct and nobody seems to care. But if sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell says Trumpâs a âgentleman,â weâre expected to accept that like itâs the word of God?

If a Democratic president starting sending Blue state national guard troops to occupy a red city as a power grab, the GOP officials in that state would arrest the invading guard troops to send a message that they are defending their sovereignty.
