I love all animals, care about the earth and all of its inhabitants, and believe in human and civil rights for everyone. Very scared for my country right now.

Please share: My name is David Costello. I am a lifelong Mainer and Democrat running against Susan Collins. I too am concerned. I am concerned with endless decisions Susan Collins has made. We need to turn a page, retire Susan and take back the US Senate. Please watch and share:
Gosh, you sound nice.
I have been hearing it a lot lately, ever since Trump has given his followers permission and encouragement to be obnoxious jerks.
It doesn't matter if YOU are offended or not. It's about the effect it has on people who are being slurred and made to feel like they are lesser beings.
I have found it pretty easy to spot them. Rather than engage, I just blockity block.
BREAKING: Robert F. Kennedy Jr poised to surpass gun violence as leading cause of death among American children.
Journalists everywhere need to stand in solidarity on this killing spree and resulting news blackout. See below in this thread for some actions and stay tuned here https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israel-hits-gaza-hospital-killing-least-20-people-including-five-journalists-2025-08-25/
It is so gentlemanly of him to help our cities.
Just saying he was a gentleman in all respects shows how much she is lying. There is nothing at all gentlemanly about Trump, as we have all observed over a long period of time.
😂🤡🥴
he said "ruining", not "running"
1. You may have noticed something. I used to talk about the president’s dementia pretty regularly, but haven’t in months. That’s because I’ve lost faith. I used to believe the Washington press corps would see the plainly obvious. I no longer believe that. The hypocrisy is too baked in.
🇺🇦 Re-upping this one in the name of decency and democracy. Slava Ukraini!

It's the White Trash House now.
He's just biding his time until Trump keels over.
He is why we can't have nice things.
Yes, according to her own book, immediately after shooting her puppy she shot their goat because it stank.
there’s an election for Cat Mayor currently happening in Somerville, Mass. and every cat deserves to win
😂
My tomatoes are finally getting ripe! I had my first ones this week.
And the goat whose smell offended her.
Just sincerely wondering how you know Trump convinced her to disfigure herself. Could she not have come up with the brilliant idea by herself?
From this month's edition of The Onion.
I would like to thank my father for teaching me the love of reading both by his example, and by taking me on weekly trips to the library as soon as I was able to read. On my own, I read "River of Grass" about the need to preserve the Everglades, as a teen 50 yrs ago.
Question for Mike Flood: With $450 million being allocated to Alligator Alcatraz, and ICE burning through $8.4 million a day to illegally detain people—How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the tax payers have to pay for a fascist country?
Let them eat cake.
I'm thankful she is ON that network. It can't be easy for her.
You can easily lower that infant mortality rate to 0 in 1000. Simply let human babies drink human milk and let the baby cows drink the cow's milk, as nature intended.
Openly gay, transvestite con artist Republican doesn't get support of other con artist Republicans.
Where I live (California) this would be handled by the city, not the police, for city code violations and whatnot. If out of city limits then the county.
Can confirm.
Voyeurs??
I am so sorry for your loss and the pain of losing a beloved companion.
It's not just MAGA wondering that. I think many of us have been wondering. Thanks for the explanation.
It's easy to be courageous now that he has nothing to lose.
😂
I don't think they are truly aware of the level Trump's involvement with Epstein (denial as usual). They are mad because they think there are a lot of powerful libs involved.
So, these two should be recalling their homeland of-- let me guess--Germany? #DHSNazis
To get back to the OP, we are not hearing about any mass roundups, community harassment or deportations of white immigrants. There are individual stories of course, but they aren't being targeted as a whole.
While that is interesting, from reading that article those are wealthy Russian tourists taking advantage of our birthright citizenship (with Trump's blessing). I am referring to actual Russian immigrants who are wanting to live here. As Kinzinger said, it doesn't seem like they are being targeted.
You obviously know nothing about Russian immigrants.
Hmm... it's oddly quiet there
So he just said he gets his news from Melania. It's a shame there's no one in his administration to fill him in on what's happening in the world.
The right-wing backlash against #Superman this week got me thinking: Has this happened before? That led to the discovery of these headline — from April 1940, when the official newspaper of the SS took umbrage at the comic book hero and ridiculed its creators. My how times change ...
or anything that allows the majority of the employees of a corporation to receive their fair share of the profits
you left out racists and misogynists
Every time someone horrible in his administration resigns, my first thought is YAY! Then I remember they will definitely be replaced with someone equally or even more horrible.
Domestic terrorists…
Well, that will surely fix all our pesky little "weather" problems. Thanks Marge.
At least he is telling the truth for a change, 'cause he don't know nuthin about anything.
Any of them the current president of the US?
This is very stupid. Neither of these women celebrate the downfall of our country. Probably because they are women you never bothered to learn about them.
If this “big beautiful bill“ is so great, why does everybody want an exception from it?
Yes, yes they do.
And the audacity to express their intelligence.
We were so fortunate to have such a good and decent man as our president.
The only thing worse is "Trump demands".
If you like it, apparently unsweetened coconut water has a lot of electrolytes.
Hey! I just finally got used to using only one space after a period.
It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this
Not only it is hard to find citizens willing to pick their crops, but it is much more expensive because with documented workers they have to follow the laws regarding working conditions, and wages. No one left to exploit. Even the documented workers are afraid to show up for work because of ICE.
ICE looking more and more like the American Gestpo.
Oopsie.
I say let's bring back lead paint!
I, and many ( probably most) people joined Bluesky to have a place to get reality based info and be able to civilly discuss, or disagree with people without having to deal with the toxicity of the MAGATs. There's that other place to go for fighting trolls. Thus, we love our "block" button.
It would be fun if you were actually fighting with him, but this will just be a troll acct.
He only gets away with it because he is surrounded by secret service.
Take the masks off. Show your badges. This is America.
You're right. People should be credited for their work.
Lecter has no worries - he's white.
Yes, we paid for it and has he even said thank you?
Many people are saying!
“A deranged maniac impersonated a police officer and killed lawmakers but if you’re an immigrant be sure you immediately comply with plain clothes people who won’t identify themselves telling you to get in a van”, what a fuckin country
In this case actually true!
Why so sad, Donnie?
Stop calling him sir!
Seems fun in theory, but throwing anything at people with guns, teargas and no apparent conscience is not a brilliant idea.
At this point it's pretty easy to tell when Elon is drugged up and when he is coming down.
who did?
Apparently it is none of our beeswax. 🤷
So sad that such lovely, gentle, emotional sentient beings whose lives have been cruelly taken from them, are ultimately classified as nothing more than dog shit.
Same here.
Exactly! How would they know who is a non-US citizen vs. a US citizen!
My fear for Canada is you will get cocky. Americans didn't think this could happen to us.
And Mike ought to be drawn and quartered but that’s not my lane

Every accusation is a confession.
Thoughts and prayers to America's Gestapo, cowering in fear in the face of such violent [checks notes] . . . ur, dancing in the streets.
The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.
I guess this is supposed to be clever, but I can't find it amusing when the Orange Dictator is sending troops into my (blue) state against the will of the governor and the people.

This is Lola. She is one of the most skilled soccer dribblers we've ever seen, so it makes sense that she's already capturing footage for her documentary. 14/10
I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.
"The Honorable" Linda McMahon is not at all honorable.
If they are low income enough to qualify for Medicaid, that means their employers aren't paying them a living wage. These same employers are going to provide insurance?
