Chicago this Labor Day… Thousands fighting for what #WorkersDeserve
Did Bluesky kick Nate Silver's dog or something
Illinois is now the number one state in the Midwest to work in. This ranking reflects our work in making Illinois the best state in the nation to do business, raise a family, and thrive.
What really pisses me off is that Joe was forced to drop out of running for reelection all because he had a cold. Now we’re stuck with someone who has multiple health issues and might have had a stroke and the failed press isn’t saying a word. Yeah, I’m really pissed off.
Platner: No one cares that you pretend to be remorseful as you sell out to lobbyists. Symbolic opposition does not reopen hospitals. Weak condemnations do not bring back Roe V Wade. Maine deserves better than Susan Collins.
Biden DID do this you moron or have you forgotten the name on ballot in November -- KAMALA HARRIS the reason we're in this mess today is because people -- mostly white people -- came up with any excuse they could not to vote for the VP, who happened to be a well qualified black woman
Why does @grahamformaine.bsky.social have <10k followers? Users obsessed w/their follower counts & have tens of thousands of followers for no other reason than bragging rights Here's someone who SHOULD have that many followers! Can we get Graham to 10K before midnight?
None of them want to hear about the roles they've played in leading us here. They think they're the good guys just telling it like it is Ari blocked me on the other site when I called him out for yucking it up with Bill Mahr, making jokes about Hunter Biden/cocaine at the WH
🙋🏼♀️ What if they needed to use the bathroom?
I don’t know what it is you think is going to “shake out” Fear mongering does no one any good. You clearly aren’t paying attention to Dem governors. THEY are the ones in charge of blue states. Not the Dems in DC
Are you sure this wasn’t a transcript of the DMs of a MAGA dude on X?
Elections are run by the states & midterms are not federal If they try to withhold funds to blue states, that just leaves blue states with more power as there’s no longer a need for them to fund the US government
So you still think Trump is just a political opponent? Wake up! This isn’t a game or some kind of tennis match He’s America’s greatest threat no matter which party you belong to!
How many domestic violence calls? How many reports of child abuse/endangerment? How many sexual assaults? Why the need to report gun violence but not any other form of violence?
Good thing in this blue state everyone can vote by mail, no Qs asked!
Everyone please be quiet when walking past Green Day, who have gone into their traditional month long hibernation for September
#WorkersoverBillionaires rally in #Chicago at Haymarket Memorial #laborday
Actually, they just copied & pasted what they posted to X first
I think you posted to the wrong place. Aren’t the users over on X more your roll these days?
I still don't understand why when they're taking money from your debit card, it's immediately withdrawn, but when they're refunding it, it can take 5-7 days to credited back to your account
This is the first correct thing you've said in your thread I turned off your network on election night 2024 and haven't turned it back on since With stories like this, not a chance in hell I'll ever turn it on again
Hopefully the money she makes talks back to her because I don't think anyone else ever will
While thats good news, this would have been better bsky.app/profile/kays...
So, I don't usually buy into conspiracy theories, but this one seems so, I dunno -- plausible??? what are the symptoms of Polonium poisoning?
If Democrats want to win back the Senate, we must win in Texas. That's not optional. That's math. Texans are tired of weak politicians and partisan games. They want someone who will step up, speak truth, and solve problems. And I'm the candidate who can get it done.
oh wow. Someone in this thread thinks it was more important to vote based on whats happening in other countries (and because of that, genocide is now happening here -- congratulations!)
Aw, isn't that cute -- you jumped in top protect your little friend FYI, I never accused of him of not voting for Harris I replied to his worful ignorance, much like I'm referring to yours now -- go bother someone else you wannabe maga troll
What a city. What a venue. An amazing day on Oak Street Beach for the AVP Volleyball League Championship // #Chicago
No, no it doesn't Her campaign was flawless & her messages perfect You obviously weren't paying attention or chose to listen to naysayers instead of what Harris was actually saying That has everything to do with you & your woeful ignorance & nothing to do w/Harris www.cbsnews.com/news/kamala-...
Followed both and added them to the pack!👍🏻
Seriously, what did they expect when they booked this asshole? He’s NOT the director of counterterrorism He’s not even an official member of the administration Why did they even waste airtime having him on?
Seen on my run in Rock Creek Park today. Parking lot near Beach and Tilden. Paper taped on over a Harris 2024 sign.
That one earned you a follow and a spot in my Starter Pack! 👍🏻 go.bsky.app/4Y7YPak
How about this — a universal ID that permits you to vote (15th Amendment) and/or carry a gun (2nd Amendment) Why doesn’t anyone ask Republicans (or POTUS) why they support voter IDs but oppose gun IDs?
Wrong - the Constitution does NOT require a conviction And blaming Merrick Garland for what the Supreme Court did is really a stretch You obviously haven’t been paying attention and have no idea what Project 2025 has in store for this country
Look in the mirror if you want someone to blame Those who couldn’t/wouldn’t vote for a black woman or Biden’s VP are responsible for THIS Trump administration If they chose to make the same choices if the nominee is Newsom, they would again be the ones to blame Now, go play with your MAGA friends
😑
A maga response if I ever saw one
He is & I’m sorry you all have to deal with garbage like him but sharing his posts from X is exactly why he does it He wants the notoriety for being a hateful POS. Don’t give him the satisfaction
Trans right are a rubicon for any 28 candidate. They must forcefully support that. In all aspects. Custody rights, spirts, gender affirming care. This is 25. Can we focus on the house and Senate first to make sure there IS a 28?
He wasn’t eligible to run for a 2nd term after instigating & participating in an insurrection yet here we are
FYI - if you think presidents are like boyfriends, perhaps you’re more maga than you think And the fact you’re trying to stir up trouble in an election thats 3.5 yrs away that we’re not even sure is going to be free & fair proves you’re just as unserious as them
Why don’t you send everyone proof of life first? (Either way, Chicago doesn’t want you here)

Here real name is Hanan Qahwaji islamophobia.org/islamophobic...
She's a Twitter troll whose real name is Hanan Qahwaji She used to look like this
Her real name is Hanan Qahwaji She changed her name and appearance to be accepted into maga and the far white -- I mean right
This is NOT true He joked about it but nothings been decided Some people are so desperate for engagement they’ll just make shit up for likes, shares & follows. Thats exactly the kind of desperation that happens with maga’ts
why are you consulting messaging strategists? If what you’re posting is true & accurate information, why do your messages require a strategy?
his granddaughter
The final stages of heart failure will do that The weekend before my husband died he spent the weekend coughing up so much fluid. He thought it was pneumonia. Dr told me he was probably in heart failure. He also experienced the “surge” - a burst of energy- the night before he died
I wish Borders could have been “reborn” in that space. They would have thought of an interesting way to make use of the vault
This is why Trump won WTF cares? The woman died 4.5 yrs ago Trump was president when she died. If he wanted her to have a military funeral he’d have given her one then THIS is the distraction designed to “own the libs”. They do it all the time & you ALWAYS fall for it
okay my friend in the White House press pool says he’s going golfing today, everyone stand down, good practice run great job team we can get a few more drills in before the big day
Its not a Trump Power Grab Its a Project 2025/Heritage Power Grab We’re almost a year into this & you’re STILL framing this as if this all Trump’s agenda when he’s nothing more than a puppet You even had one of its authors on your show AND HE TOLD YOU THIS!
I don’t either Never cared for the taste
My belief is if the campaign & anyone with a voice/platform had pushed that the authors of P25 would actually be potus & Trump was nothing more than a puppet who they control, his narcissism & ego would have ensured a Harris win Instead they framed Trump as some evil genius who we should fear
I think he believes its Ivanka
His granddaughter has been seen with him much more than usual lately How much you wanna bet he thinks its Ivanka? Gross, but would make sense (& Jr would totally go along with it)
I was born an underdog. 21 surgeries by the age of 12 for spina bifida. A kid wearing goodwill hand-me-downs. I knew nothing would come easy, but I never doubted my right to the American dream. Now, I'm running for the U.S. Senate to make sure all Iowans have a shot at theirs.
Here's the thing: Its 2025 We need to get through 2026 midterms and ensure we even have an election in 2028 Can everyone please STFU on whether or not you support or want to vote for Newsom (or anyone else)?
Do you happen to know who it is that needs to right the ship & write those sane trade policies? I thought it was the job of the Senate & House, but lately all they do is post to social media and show up at state fairs. Must be nice earning a 6 figure salary for less than 6 months of "work"
Said it B4 & I'll keep saying it No matter how gerrymandered districts are drawn, it still takes people to vote. In redrawn districts where governors are counting on racism to win, we need strong Dem candidates out there, talking to voters, reminding them they're people w/voices, not pawns in a game
Other than the girl from MAGA’s favorite ad for jeans, WTF is Sydney Sweeney?
Her SS detail should all resign and go to work for her as her private security
One thing that Zohran shares among Dems that have had a positive spotlight recently (like Pritzker and Walz) is a very plainspoken "it doesn't have to be bad" style. They don't do the thing where they twist themselves in knots trying to appease seven different poll group demographics at once.
Here’s the Dem running to unseat Ms. Linzy She has more followers, but still considerably less than most influencers, which is ridiculous, IMO bsky.app/profile/dran...
Graham Platner now has 7,100 followers as of Friday morning. Momentum is growing!
Someone needs to land an interview with him. Ask him what it means to “indoctrinate” young people. Then ask him what it is these centers are doing
Also, go watch Hunter Biden’s interviews
I don’t believe that for a minute mainly because they have been silent Biden served for 50+ years. the people he served alongside all shit on him. He’s 80+ yrs old & battling cancer. He owes no one anything Harris wrote a book & is going on tour across the country
If they work, then why haven’t the shootings ended? No one in that room thought to ask that?
The shooter was 23 years old - an adult, not a minor
Get behind her opponent!! bsky.app/profile/grah...
You know who else is extremely alarmed? @grahamformaine.bsky.social and he’s prepared to actually DO something about it!! bsky.app/profile/grah...
I am so tired of all the “I’m not voting for Newsom” posts IDGAF who they are Instant block because they clearly aren’t interested in making sure we have a 2028 election
Y’all worried about Gavin Newsom running for president—if we don’t win the midterms there won’t be any presidential run to argue about. People need to start understanding we don’t have a fictional federal government. We’re running on residue from the past, only protected by city & state. #Pinks
Another one, begging for engagement & attention by announcing she won’t vote for someone 3 yrs from now who isn’t even running for anything So tired of Maga Left
Having worked in an indie bookshop for a year now, I can say with absolute certainty that they are an essential hub of community life. Please support your local indie bookstore whenever you can.
Trump doesn’t even know who she is. Her lawyers are doing exactly what they should be doing
Who is she & why should I care that 100k people are following her? Is she running for office? Cuz Graham is and he only has 5k following him. bsky.app/profile/grah...
bsky.app/profile/kays...
I’m convinced THIS is the distraction and being done for the sole purpose of “owning the libs” If Trump wanted her to have a military funeral he would have given her one in Jan 2021 bsky.app/profile/kays...
Love the enthusiasm but the ‘constitutional tradition’ exists if we the people want it to exist. The opposition leadership is silent, the institutions are corrupt and one of our two methods of revolt is compromised. We are cooked. As a constitutional democracy.
Valid point. Good job giving it the spotlight. I don't live in Maine, but am happy to follow. Who else out there will press his follow button? Give Collin’s challenger’s account a boost and follow. Honesty, so proud of the folks who showed up there to protest. Gives me some faith in humans again.
Graham Platner: "Susan Collins has been in the Senate for almost 30 years... People know that she's a self-interested politician who has tried to play this charade for many years about how she tries to be a moderate... Everybody sees this for what it is."
Thats nice Why does Graham have <5k followers on here? I'm not following another "influencer" unless they commit to promoting every Democrat running in 2026 bsky.app/profile/grah...
cool -- why does the Dem running to unseat her have only a fraction of the followers you have? bsky.app/profile/grah...
My name is Graham Platner and I’m running for US Senate to defeat Susan Collins and topple the oligarchy that’s destroying our country. I’m a veteran, oysterman, and working class Mainer who’s seen this state become unlivable for working people. And that makes me deeply angry.
How disgraceful She died during the last Trump administration. Why didn’t they make that request then?
They do it for those photos & social media notoriety
Abbe Lowell and I represent CDC Director #SusanMonarez. Contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired. She will not resign. We have issued the following statement:
DO NOT PUT CHILDREN ON TV TALKING ABOUT A SHOOTING THEY JUST LIVED THROUGH The media who do this are heartless bastards

If you can think good thoughts about my friend David. I know many of you are his friend on here too. I saw he deactivated his account. He was in a dark place and I tried multiple times DM'ing and leaving comments on his posts. I hope he's okay and hope he returns. I care a great deal about him. 😔💙
So that means the next Democratic president can mandate that aid organizations must check whether someone has been accused of sexual misconduct, child molestation or belongs to a church/religious organization before they give them food, clothing or any other aid . . . Right?
Everyone cites Sandy Hook as when it was clear a bunch of politicians didn't care and I still contend it was the most clear during the Congressional baseball shooting. THEY got shot. Scalise almost died and came back a worse person..
Who the heck were you listening to that told you inflation was high? You’re repeating Fox talking points, ignoring that the in-party was responsible for LOWERING inflation
