I didn't monetize anything, and I'm not sure you can on Bluesky. Publix, on the other hand, monetized my long-delayed purchase of a bottle of champagne.
No. Just ... no. My employer doesn't want me to express my opinions. Proud to be free.

Maybe if Democratic politicians and voters pushed back even a little bit. During Biden's term, how often did you see an "I did this" sticker on the gas pump, blaming Biden for high fuel prices? During Trump's term, have you ever seen a similar sticker on the egg shelves at a supermarket?

The guardsmen are happy because they're military, so they hate liberals -- and they might get an opportunity to kill hundreds of liberals, Tiananmen style. If morale is low, it's because the massacres haven't happened yet.

They never said shit about Reagan's obvious dementia in 1986-88. They won't say anything about Trump's dementia now. Five years from now, they'll still be rending garments over not making a bigger deal about Biden's decline, and they'll still be silent about Trump's dementia.

The Dem leadership was deeply traumatized by the 1984 election, and slightly less so by 1980 and 1988. They're in a perpetual defensive crouch, afraid to advocate for anything that Reagan would have disliked. They still believe that the GOP is the party of Reagan and they're terrified of him.

As you know, all cops are liberal Democrats. They're infamous for their close cooperation with Democratic mayors. So it's no surprise that bleeding-heart liberal police chiefs would downplay crime so they can reduce costly policing budgets, thin their ranks, and support Democratic politicians.
