Alright folks, here we go! Ask me anything, 30ish mins, gogo!
Alright folks, gotta stop there for now. Thanks for spending part of your Friday with me. <3
It's actually Saturday here, be more inclusive next time 🤔😛
Should we add new questions to the Patreon from last Tuesday or wait for the next one?
Likewise. How many years you been doing this now? We thank you.
Thank you Angry for spending time with us. You are my Saturday morning read. Always thought povoking and sprinkled with some humor. Wishing you and yours a lovely weekend.
Shoot, I was going to ask what's your ideal Sunday
No prob! Thanks to you as well! <3
That was a short one, only 4 answers 😔 But thanks!
So if the tariffs are illegal does that mean the government has to give back all of the revenue it robbed?
Thanks for spending part of your Friday night with us. Too much news to cover, appreciate the emails. Be safe protesting! Enjoy the weekend and the brisket! Cheers! 🥃
Have a calm restful holiday weekend.
Have a nice holiday weekend!!
Thanks Angry! Have a great weekend.

Thanks so much, Angry! 🙏
Thanks Angry!
How does the redistricting battle play out with another red state joining the fray?
What do you make Muriel Bowser’s statement re National Guard in DC??
Will we be able to prevent the corruption/falsification of voting results in November?
Do you know how hail forms?
Would President Trump call most of his supporters, ugly and morons?
Is Trump dying?
So…Meidas just posted an emergency Substack or whatever he does (it came in my email) that Trump has not been seen in two days and that Vance is speaking about being ready to take the reins if anything happens to El Presidente. I have also heard that he’s not golfed in awhile. Can it be???
🤞🏼
How angry are you.
Will "de minimus" come back? It's quite unbelievable that they won't mail packages from European countries.
Should the masses start 'RIP Trump' or 'RIP 47' on here and Shitter and see what happens?
Well that's generous.
How does Congress feel right now about I E arresting firefighters while fighting the Bear Gulch fire in the Olymouc National Forest? I already know what Patty Murray thinks! The Olympics are part of my summer hike stomping grounds. I'm pissed!
ICE
Are our gov institutions and private industries following the same path as Russia’s when Putin came to power there?
Why don't the Dems use AI to game the system and think ahead 3 steps to make sure we have fair elections? Will Trump use ICE or National Guard to "observe" polling places to intimidate? Will DeJoy destroy, delay, hide mail-in votes?
DeJoy is gone.
Dems need to "see" them and "raise" them. Full court press at every polling place.
What is really going on behind the scenes with Trump sending military ships and personel to Venezuela? They’re rich in oil and rare minerals so what is his end goal? Is he engineering this grab of riches for himself?
Whatever is going on of course Trump will somehow find a way to making some money from it… he can’t help himself.
Chevron took 50% (!!!) of Iraq's profits, and they have long history exploiting Venezuela. I'd expect war threats UNTIL Maduro pays the Chevron bribe.
Whatever's going on with Venezuela is likely the reason he's hiding.
I guess he hasn’t been seen since Tuesday, and no plans this weekend…
Personally, I'm hoping it's his health.
Is the reason Miller is trying to get everything done that he can before tRump passes away or they have no choice but to invoke the 25th Amendment ?
How can Trump stop work on the almost-complete wind farm off Rhode Island? Who is paying the contractor Ørsted? If it was federal funds, can't RI find another funder? I don't see how Trump can forbid it.
He’s a Russian asset so anything that interferes with or outshines oil drilling is a no-no
He’s likely trying to get a kickback and then he’ll allow the work to continue.
He’s doing A LOT of stuff he can’t do.
EVERYTHING is doable if there are never any consequences for doing it. Even if there are, it’s generally too little too late… and he has disrupted supply/chain of command/brain trust.
Are there any more big protests planned? Besides Bill McKibben's Sun Day on Sept 21?

How did the feds get a 10% stake in Intel? Did they buy the shares at fair market value (with public money)? Did they put pressure on somebody to give them the shares? And why do they want to start nationalizing key companies?
To answer my own qu, found this by Paul Waldman: www.publicnotice.co/p/trump-inte...
It was in return for getting the balance of the CHIPs monies that were approved during the Biden Administration. The Trump Admin put all those monies on hold after Intel started building/expanding the factories. Now, in order to secure those promised funds, they had to give up shares of Intel.
So... intel buckled to extortion by the fed gov..
Thanks for doing this on a long weekend! Do you know why MSNBC is splitting from NBC? Does this have Trump's fingerprints on it?
Just did poll observer training for the VA-11 special and the state elections in November. We absolutely have to win those, don't we?
I live in VA district 11…. That should be an easy win for democrats!
But setting up systems and practicing smartly prepares staff and voters. No election should be wasted, but used as training for midterms.
With incumbent Rs, how many who are not going to seek reelection will be willing to actually do the right thing & stand up to the dementing one?
Do you think this brilliant campaign of Newsom’s is going to put him at the top of the list for democratic gnomes in 2028? Is he a viable candidate after this?
If trump or the health guy said animals eat poo to recycle gut commensals, B12,"mitochondia" or some out of context bollix like "rhysozomes" Would they eat their own poo?
Please tell me somehow this all will actually END. And he will LEAVE. This news today about the UFC BS on the 4th of July has me beyond disgusted. 🙏🙏🙏
Dear Angry, WTAF? Thank you for your attention to this detail.
I’m hearing things about blue states and “soft succession”. Is it happening? If not, will it? I’m all in for it!
What would that look like?
Brilliant. secession
Cdc resignation day … any thoughts on if another agency is about to see a mass high lvl resignation?
Are the Republicans getting fed up enough with RFK Jr that impeachment and removal is a real possibility?
Nope. People die. Get over it. 🤦🏽♀️
Do you think it’ll be better if (when) he croaks?
Can anyone save MO from the gerrymandering the GOV just agreed to? @marcelias.bsky.social ? If not how do we win in the next election?
Hi Angry. I’m hearing thinks about Gavin Newsom that some people don’t like. Frankly, I don’t like some of his positions but if he is the democratic candidate I’m humpin’ voting for him. Can you explain this to Dems, please? I have an infographic.
From what I hear, Newsom has been intolerant of trans people & the homeless. If I had a pipeline to him, I'd say accept trans people - that's it. Easy enough. About the homeless - come up with solutions. They are not a monolithic group. Some need housing - employment - mental health services.
Are you looking at the next election? Don't. Even if he is. Newsom is doing what all democrats need to be doing. Fight back. That's all we need at this juncture.
It's a world-wide problem, not just California.
Where did you hear that he was intolerant of trans people? The only thing I heard was that he acknowledged there were issues with trans women in women sports.
I’m not against Trans at all but I do have trouble with the sports issue. I think it’s understandable that Newsom has concerns. But he definitely needs to handle the homeless situation BETTER!😩
I agree. My sister was an addict that refused to stay in treatment. If it weren’t for my mother, she would’ve been homeless. She passed away at the age of 53. I often wonder if after one of her many DUI’s if the court had mandated rehab or jail would she still be alive today.
There is no, 'sports issue,' and I think Newsom's 'concerns' are contrived in order to pander. Seems totally dishonest...yet almost all politicians do it. I think he'd be lots better off being honest
How many trans athletes are in your state? How many are in the entire US? Do you care who tied for 5th place in a swim meet? This is a contrived issue from the *right* to work their voters into a frenzy. The left didn't bring this up. And the handful of athletes just want to participate & not die.
True dat!!
I think he's trying to appeal to moderate voters. I have no problem with that.
Please read @joeyneverjoe.bsky.social's post re: Newsom's harassment of the homeless. As for Newsom being trans-ignorant, please see the MSN article below, then watch John Oliver's piece from April 7, 2025. www.msn.com/en-us/news/u... youtu.be/flSS1tjoxf0?...
Excellent. TY. 🙏
I’ve watched the John Oliver piece. It’s excellent.
@joeyneverjoe.bsky.social's post: Newsom today announced he’s putting together a team of state agencies to destroy homeless encampments across the state. He says there’ll be efforts to shelter people, but the focus of the task force is dismantling homeless encampments. ktla.com/news/califor...
We voters voted for this. We passed millions of dollars in bonds to get these people help. They refuse & set up unsafe encampments in our communities.We put up with the fires they start, the crime & absolute filth.We get homeless from all over the country & if they refuse help then it is what it is.
bsky.app/profile/hero...
The numbers are up across the board for homeless populations. With overdoses/Fentanyl being the driving factor.
He'd be smarter to broadcast that homelessness got worse with Reaganomics & GOP continue to gut programs to help anyone they view as scary & beneath them.
Same
Not the same in my mind.Would it be best to vote for a person who wants to remove LGBTQ rights altogether or the person who accepts everyone but wants to limit trans women in sports? If you say I can't vote for either, you lose women in sports either way but so much more with one of the choices.
He has not been supportive
Every candidate has shortcomings with at least one subset of the democratic tent. That's just reality. If he is the candidate against trump/maga, damn right I'm supporting him .
I hope it's Pritzker. I trust him more & perhaps because I live in California & have watched Newsom since he was in S.F., it's clear he comes ip aces on political fights but not impressed with leadership (particularly fiscal responsibility)
I also don’t think a California Democrat is going to be palatable as a presidential candidate. We need someone from the Midwest. I’d love to see Pete Buttigieg as president.
Me, too. If we can't elect a qualified woman, do you think a qualified gay man could be elected Nationwide?
I know. It’s sad and soooo irritating. We would have been much better off with Harris. It’s ridiculous that we have to look at our candidate through the eyes of small minded people in order to determine if they are electable.
I do think a gay man could be elected and Pete is one of my favorites. Sadly, I think the first woman president is going to have to be a Thatcher-type clown. I don't see our stupid fellow voters voting for a Democratic woman yet.
While I have accepted the outcome, with info reported by alt account about DOGE's ability to alter & delete data through stealth back door, I will always wonder if helno edited votes as both felon & helno implied. Bomb threats only in swing states was the diversion.
Typo edit: up
I'm a Californian & frequently let him know when I disagree. He folds to corporate ag & water is not something that should be piped to S California!
No- has has been one of the most supportive governors to trans people in the country. Some of his record below. He was also marrying gay people in San Francisco before it was legal so this isn’t new for him.
He's consistently walked the walk on equality.
Right - people need to stop walking into the Russian playbook of dividing the left.
1. In September 2022, Newsom signed Senate Bill 107 (SB‑107) into law, which went into effect on January 1, 2023. It made California the first “trans sanctuary” state, protecting access to gender-affirming care for minors and blocking enforcement of out-of-state restrictions.
2. School Privacy Protections • On July 15, 2024, he signed the SAFETY Act (AB 1955), giving California educators discretion over disclosing a student’s LGBTQ+ identity and barring mandatory “outing” of students to their parents.
3. Transgender Inmate Housing • In 2020, Newsom enacted a law allowing transgender and nonbinary inmates in California to be housed based on their gender identity—but allows for exceptions based on safety or security concerns.
Additional LGBTQ+ Measures • Beyond trans-specific steps: • He issued Pride Month proclamations (June 2023). • Fined a school district $1.5 million for rejecting LGBTQ‑inclusive curriculum (July 2023). • Signed laws forbidding textbook bans of works referencing minority groups or LGBT individuals.
Did he make a controversial statement on trans participation in sports recently? Yes he did and people can certainly criticize him for that. Does that erase his entire record of broadly supporting trans rights? No it doesn’t at all.
Thank you for your detailed response. I did not know and rightly do got schooled. TY 🙏
Thank you! The hysteria over him stating what 66% of Americans think is beyond ridiculous. The purity bullshit is always looking for a reason to help republicans
this is peak 'he's not perfect so i won't accept him' territory. Gavin is not intolerant of trans. in fact, he oversees a state where trans inclusion in sports is mandatory. he's also not intolerant of homeless. in fact, CA is at the forefront for building housing projects for homeless people.
Democrats have to realize that you are not picking out a life partner with a candidate. You don’t have to LOVE everything about them. I heard it described as taking a bus, grab the one that will get you closest to your destination.
Yes!
Newsom is not that bus
Newsom is kicking MAGA ass. Voting is not a marriage proposal. vote for the person who can beat the repub.
1. I wake up every day & ask this about the Orange Shitgibbon. "Is he dead yet" 2. I will never vote for Gavin Newsom. 3. Both of them want me dead,or my nightmare in a camp. 4. "I'm tired of if year after year after year after year of having to choose between the lesser of who cares". No I won't
In January, I dyed my hair blue. "Blue no matter who."
Thanks for everything you do! What’s your take on the apparent influence operation in Greenland? Is it significant or just more Trump bullshit?
We are watching both political parties scrambling to hyper Gerrymander their states in the middle of the decade. This is probably the most undemocratic thing we can be doing as a country. Have we already lost our democracy?
Should I feel guilty about how funny I find Gavin Newsom’s tweets to be? Especially when they piss off the MAGA folk. I think we’re entering a post “when they go low we go high” era. Are we in losing our last shred of decency as a society?
This regime is bad for our souls. But they're out to kill us. I'm gonna dance in the streets when Dumpty goes knocking on Hell's door. I'll repent after.
Psych nurse here. Newsom’s tweets are ironic and illuminating. People being pissed means something is hitting. Deep down many know but have been in denial about how disordered Trump is. Being confronted with this forces cognitive dissonance. Hard core MAGA will not budge but others might.
I call this the "Hans, are we the baddies?" moment of realization. Uncomfortable but illuminating.
Papers were pretty rough on people like Jefferson in the early days of the US. Twain wrote that people in politics were in "a hornet's nest with a short shirt-tail." In other words, it's rough, normally. The niceness of Eisenhower v. Stevenson was unusual.
I don’t care for Newsom much but these tweets are hilarious.
No way we gotta meet them where they are now! The funniest thing is it’s been weeks and they still don’t get it!🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I’m living for them!
Dont' feel guilty. Honestly, he's not even going that low.
Even Michelle has walked back for comments. We need to stop using that phrase.
Class will eventually come back. For now, we have to fight fire with fire.
Why does corporate media allow republicans to lie, cheat and steal but make democrats recite 1000 page bills, chapter and verse?!?
Do you think that we need to do a better job educating the public about Peter Thiel and Russell Voight and the Heritage foundation?
Absolutely! I was thinking about the same thing recently! We need to know who these people are and what their intentions are!🔥🔥🔥
theplotagainstamerica.com www.thenerdreich.com
Sooo much more attention needs to be focused on all those weirdo monsters.
They are so weird!
Yes!
Absolutely. Most are struggling to make ends meet and do not have time to research. And MSM has abducted their roll to inform.
*abdicated*
Absolutely! These names should be shouted from the rooftops by politicians and the public. They are evil billionaires like Musk only far less visible and flying under the radar.
theplotagainstamerica.com www.thenerdreich.com
Absolutely!
Peter Thiel and Russ Vought should both get castrated
Yes. Also It's the money, lust for power, Gerrymandering and lack of term limits that has corrupted the entire system Citizens views take a back seat to what the party donors want and Country takes a back seat to the Parties Donors wants.Congress' representatives is nowhere close to the country's☮️
A little late for that, wouldn't you say?
YES!!!
Yes.
Yes
No, American voters can not be educated. They want to be uninformed and told what they want to hear. Hate does not make a person inquisitive, it makes them impervious to facts.
Yes, 💯❗️
Also Stephen Miller
Are you referring to this guy?
Definitely. Effectively if trump dies JDV becomes president then Theil by proxy. He couldn't be president as he is South African but this is the closest thing to it.
I wonder if Congress would resume having a spine if Trump died? He has some hold on them and all the maga folks. I’m not sure Vance and the rest would have the same control without an uprising. But I don’t know.
Yes yes yes!
Curtis Yarvin, too.
Oh yeah-definitely!!
Absolutely. People need to know what they're up against.
That may be too esoteric for most voters. I’d say to spell out the policies those goons are pushing with a fast contrast to what the Democratic candidates are pushing: lower cost food & housing, excellent public education, strong research universities, affordable childcare, higher wages. We’ll win!
Only as they feel the pain of higher everything $$$, will they pay attention. Exposing the villains could make the urgency more compelling. How they’ve planned for years, how they cleverly work in tandem, & behind the scenes. It’s a lot to introduce the cast, but seems important. We must win!
theplotagainstamerica.com www.thenerdreich.com
Hell yes.
Angry i hardly see any of your responses!!!
I can’t either. Which is weird. Always have before.
When is judge Chas. Breyer’s decision due re newsom v Trump - and could its effect go beyond California?
Why hasn't Trump been seen in public for days? This is the second time in recent months.
Why are MSM still refusing to address the fascist takeover of the US?
MSNBC talks about it all day long!
They're OWNED by the fascists!
Because their bosses are under Trump's thumb
And share his unending greed & moral void.
Not sure which MSM you’re referring to, but MSNBC addresses it continually.
Not many others ☹️
Because they are co-conspirators.
Because they’re cowards and money grabbers.
And they don't want to lose access to the White House. They saw what happened to the AP and got the message. Jokes on them! Because we got the message too 😡
Is Media owners preventing the WHCA from asking about Trump’s health? Any inside info on why the WHCA are so in the bag for Trump? Is it the craziness they crave?
What do you think was said by Putin in that Alaska meeting that left Trump officials looking “ashen” and distraught?
I think he definitely threatened them but I’m thinking it’s much worse than Kompromat! Not quite sure what, but it’s very dark! Letting them know they better not step out of line or else!
I think he showed him the evidence he has on him!
Trump has been laundering Russian money for decades
And has made no secret of it
At least not for the people who bothered to do their homework. People on the East and West Coasts knew more about him than the majority of the people in the middle. I worked with a guy from Texas who had no idea he was on Wife #3 and had cheated on all of them.
Yes, the still uninformed staggers me.
I use shorter sentences and single syllable words
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Someone told me last week that he voted for P47 "'cause he's a businessman" Jan 6 was four years ago, and who *doesn't* know about all the bankruptcies, lawsuits, fraud, etc 🙄
Some people from my hometown town (Ruby Red district in Florida) believe it’s fake news or just don’t care. It will soon bite them in the butt! Big farming area!
I have photos and videos of you raping young girls.
R*ping and m*rdering White Christian nationalists have already proven they will overlook him r*ping children. I don’t think they will forgive torturing, beating, and then killing underage girls.
Yes, they will. Their reasoning will be either it's God's will or fake news.
And God forgave him, right?
🎯
In a Russian hotel room.
He said “ I have the Epstein files”
Putin threatened to redirect Russia’s nukes toward Mar-a-Lago? Just spitballin’, VVP is as treacherous as they get.
The possibilities are endless.
Excellent question!
Where is Trump? Any insight into what’s happening with him? He’s not been seen on camera for 3 days and Vance is giving foreshadowing-ish interviews about how he’s ready to take over.
Unusual, Trump has been entirely absent from the public eye Thursday & Friday, with no scheduled appearances thru Labor Day. No golf outings. Possible medical procedure ?! Worse ?!
"I have never killed a man, but I have read some obituary notices with great pleasure." - Clarence Darrow.
Congestive heart failure…..if any prayers have been answered 🙏🏼
I don’t think the word ‘worse’ is a logical progression for this situation.
The swelling doesn't end at the ankles. It's congestive heart failure.
I hear they're building him a new custom lead lined coffin to sleep in and he has to be present for measurements.
trump, at least, needs to be wearing slippers rather than squashing himself into those shoes. but then he'd be 5'6". 😂 😅 🤣 😇 😂
I think he’d look better wearing striped socks and red heels.
Weekend at Bernie’s…
I don’t think he’s running the show. It’s Miller and company.
I’ve always wondered how long the inner circle would take to acknowledge the loss of Cankles Cornbread. 🤔
Agreed, he farms out all his responsibilities, always has. Empty vessel doing quid pro quo’s for grift, wealth, power.
Bingo
Worse = better — for those of you keeping score.
By "worse" do you mean better?
Good lord, they couldn’t get Augustus Glup some normal pants? Different shoes?? that pant/sock/shoe combo is an assault on the eyes.
He golfed in DC last weekend. Flying may be dangerous for an old man with deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
They gotta disguise those cloven hooves somehow. 🤷♂️
Worse would be …..not bad.
I personally am hoping for the worst (for him).
It would be a cause for world wide celebration!!!!
until you realize JUST how evil JD is
One at a time…. Actually, JD isn’t as charismatic as DT so will maybe lose a few voters that way? 🙏🏼
But once he's in, removing will be extremely difficult and all the crazy shit he wants to do well be considered 'continuing the legacy' Even if he dials back it's STILL crazy town madness.
Our planet will still be better off when he's 6 feet under regardless of what happens among the living.
But everyone hates jd He has NO CULT FOLLOWING
They can be made to accept his 'necessity' though. Can you IMAGINE a Vance -Johnson White House?
Jd is evil, jd also has no cult following. Maga would splinter into a million pieces, each with their own new demigod.
does it matter though? They won't kick him out of office and he's got 3.5 years to fucking destroy the place
Come on, Trump used kompromat to get congress under his thumb and Vance doesn't possess that same kompromat. Vance will fail, spectacularly.
He'll be in charge though. Thiel's endless deep pockets got us here.
They've slept together, right?
trvmp is evil and definitely needs to be stopped
The entire Admin is evil ☹️
I don't disagree 🤷♀️
JD doesn't have the clout or charisma felon enjoys-he's just not a well trained grifter.
He's super good at lying
His lies can be easily refuted & often are.
Hopefully the maga elite have massive destructive in-fighting when the time comes, and Stephen Miller gets a vampire stake.
In these cases, historically look to who is being silent. Miller isn't in charge but being put forth as a lightning rod. Same with Homan. Many sycophants are there and Vance will be offered as the 'reasonable' option. We'd better get our shit together... FAST.
Quick question, because you have a good point so I'm wondering why you have two anti trans labels on your account?
Maybe that's why I keep getting 'classy'naked bathroom pics of ugly gay dudes all the time?
Thanks for the tip!
@support.bluesky what the fuck is up with a "label" I can't see?!?!
I subscribe to a labeler. Only people subscribed to it can see it
Ahhh! Well that's OK. I'm willing to suffer because I know in aggregate safety is more important. Rock On, stay strong. Allies forever. #PRIDEparty would instantly set the level nationwide. With or against and the against would be forced to see how stupid they are.
No idea those even existed! Maybe some pissy bitch thought I care about gender? LoL seriously though, it doesn't matter to me what someone's truth is about their own body. If it's a performance I'm not inclined to hang out, but I don't base anything on a label. Even CIS ones.
I agree that JD is evil but he has absolutely no charisma - he won't have as many people following him blindly.
How the hell did he win in OH...who would vote for an idiot jerk like that? 🙄
He doesn’t have the pull the cult leader does.
With Thiel in the background.. does it matter?
We all know what Vance is; however, he isn’t worshipped by the cult like Trump is and won’t get away with as much.
Works for me 💙🙏
From your BlueSky account🙏 to the GOPs ears….
Thiel & Miller will continue being in charge anyway.
👍
Yeah I doubt that he scares anyone like Trump does, for some weird reason.
Ankle reduction?
Draining and deflation?
😂🤣😂🤣 Clementine Cankles goes under the knife! 🔪
It's not just his ankles, it's Trump's feet, too. Maybe he should wear flip flops and gross out the whole country, including #MAGA
🤢🤮
🤣🤣🤣🤣
What made you angry?
What's the likelihood of SCOTUS reversing the appeals court tariff decision?
Will these retiring senators finally grow a pair & stand up to …ugh, I can’t say his name.
I can answer that question. No. Tillis has already proven that.
Will we ever find out who OK’ Ghislaine’s transfer to ClubMed?
Thank you, Angry.
Seems we have lots of power play dynamics: narrow margins + poor red states (Missouri Redistricting now) + rich red states (TX) + huge blue states (CA) + oligarchs + lots of sharp people, with power and influence, resisting…just don’t see how this ends without a major disruption.
Lmao 👆🤣🤣🤣
Maybe
If he dies during his term, will R’s he’s holding leverage over finally go back to normal and do their jobs?
In the Biden administration, we on the left complained about the mixed messages from the right: “Biden is a senile imbecile! Biden is a mastermind!” Yet now we are speaking of the senile imbecile Trump in the same way. Should we not be more over in calling out Miller et al every time we say Trump?
Is the current shot show at the CDC going to result in RFK jr being fired or impeached? Will Cassidy review his Hippocratic oath and find a conscience and/or a spine ?
Sadly, I suspect the answers are No and No.
Is he dead yet or just in a coma?
Do you think SCROTUS will rule in favor of PEDOfuhrer's' tariff?
One last one. When will the Epstein files be released?
Weird. No Angry answers??
Do you think he is dying based on things Vance has said this week? Your thoughts on Vance? I tend to think Vance is smarter and worse than Trump *BUT* does not have the MAGA backing. Nor does he have the backing of Senate or House Republicans. Your opinion?
Does not have MAGA backing, however he's got Peter Thiel's money and the backing of the Federalist Society. We saw Musk's money fail for a state Supreme Court bid in Wisconsin. Fingers crossed 2028 cannot be bought.
Musk proved that being an oligarch, while powerful, isn't enough to take control on its own.
bsky.app/profile/gtco...
bsky.app/profile/joel...
Book smart but not street smart 🙄
I don't think President Vance will be as apocalyptic as President Trump. Trump is so powerful because he has the cult's admiration and republicans terrified of him. Vance has neither, which will massively neuter him even if he has oligarch support.
Chump dying would be the end for MAGA because each & every damn GOP sycophant, enabler, and ass-kisser would suddenly come out saying they never ‘really’ supported him, they knew all along he was a criminal, and we should move on. I can even hear this in Ted Cruz’s voice in my head right now.
He’s marginally smarter IMHO but scarier is that Theil is his sugar daddy. But zero cult charisma. Or any charisma for that matter.
If Dems retake the White House, they need to deport Theil for violating the oath he took when he became a naturalized citizen.
or maybe even, vance has *negative* charisma. 😂 😅 🤣 😅 😂
Negative aura points, as the teenagers say.
He has Thiel backing, he doesn't need MAGA or Congress. The voter suppression and MAGA court infestations will take care of it
'smarter and worse than P47, does not have the MAGA backing' Agree, and wish Peter Thiel would get deported to CECOT ☹️
Yes, based on what Vance has said I think they are preparing the base. I’ve thought that before, though.
I think he does have backing from the entire right.
Are protests helping? We seem to be awfully quiet when we should be making more noise?
I want to see what happens in Chicago if he sends troops in. That will be a fight
Dallas today. Now you know why TX GOP-Fascist party pushed through splitting up these Dem congressional districts.
Awesome
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Dallas! Call your reps over and over and over demanding a stop to the gerrymandering.
It’s done. Abbott signed the maps on Friday it’s up to blue states to redistrict in order to minimize the power of Fascists.
I think blue states should try to get as many seats as they possibly can. Not just 5 for CA but as many as they can get. And same for all the other blue states. Blow them out of the water this election.
100% We can’t turn this ship around with a 3 or 4 seat majority. Forget any idea of fair play. On display: SCOTUS, gun control and voter suppression, all crammed down blue states because of the stranglehold of red (ag) states in the senate. (Missouri gov is redistricting to get rid of Dem states.)
All or nothing. We need all the seats we can get or we won’t have a democracy left to turn around.

Is the damage being done to institutions like CDC, SSA, etc., reversible? If so will it take months, years, or decades?

No.

Malignant narcissists always get worse towards the end of their lives.
I can tell you that in my experience with my MIL, stress always exacerbated her dementia to the point she usually had to be hospitalized.
I don’t mean to like this for your MIL, just that it’s a hopeful sign for the country.
Frontotemporal Dementia- his father had it he’s classic
He does have all the symptoms:
His father had dementia , probably Alzheimer’s, but he lived into his 90’s. I think Frontal Temporal Dementia has a shorter span before death and what T has started years ago. His posture looks like FTD.
“The first signs of frontotemporal dementia vary but commonly include changes in personality and behavior, such as social inappropriateness, impulsivity, and loss of empathy, or language problems, like difficulty finding words or understanding speech.”
He's always had those issues though..
I started to add that but instead just let the (AI generated) statement stand alone. He’s a malignant narcissist, which includes many of those symptoms.
First signs? We were talking about his having this in 2020….
*2018 !!!
2019 the leaning forward stance. Now he has lifts in the front of his shoes that stabilize him.
to me, these shoes don't look like they have lifts in the front:
This what you see and, if images are not manipulated, is a result of heart failure. How fast to an end? It depends on other comorbidities such as diabetes, being overweight, blood pressure complications, cholesterol levels....you name it. In summary, his heart is not pumping effectively.
Agree not the same shoes seen in 2024
He’s speculating about heaven. IDK if he knows something we don’t know.
I know one thing… he need not speculate about that.

Can you start beginning these weekly sessions with giving us your opinion on a scale of 1-10 how fucked are we?
10. Does that help?
How are you?
If Trump dies in office, how long will his staff be able to keep it a secret?
Until they cant... or when the SS complains about the smell.
Will it be worse than how he smells now
No secret; puffed up waste of money & time funeral & then the Epstein files are toast. Probably buried with him, unless someone has an unredacted copy, or switches them. At that point they'd provide something for the victims & become part of his legacy. Ok, that's good. I hope it happens; all of it.
Hey Angry - Do you think there is a chance that the R's redistricting will backfire - that is, that many Republican voters who hate Trump's actions as much as we do will vote blue?
And if so, shouldn't we start talking about it now to offset the inevitable claims of voter fraud if he loses red states?
Favorite Magic the Gathering color?
If Trump is in hiding, why can’t anyone find him? Maybe AI will be able to find him.
With Putin, Xi, and Kim's Beijing parade trio flexing unity, is this Trump's authoritarian dream team or a nightmare for U.S. alliances?
Trump feels ashamed compared to them! Because he doesn't have complete control over his country but has to put up with democratic limits on his power. He's trying to prove to Putin, Xi, and Kim that he can gain complete power just like them. *They're* his audience.
Being petty for Trump is just something he does automatically, like swatting away a fly. It's nothing to him. If, by chance, someone says something to him about it, then he just grins and revels in it.
If you were just an average citizen in a blue state what would you be doing to make a difference right now? It feels like there isn’t a lot we can do and it’s frustrating.

Will the tariff case be heard by the Supreme Court, and what do you believe will be the outcome?
Are we sure he really won 7 swing states and the popular vote all by midnight? Why didn't the Democrats ask for a recount?
I’ll go to my grave believing that Elmer hacked the voting machines
Don't get me started on the magical ear!
I'm sure we won't see any form of investigation.
I think it’s a valid question, but I also think we have to be careful not to turn into MAGA. The election was extraordinarily close and largely matched what polls looked like. The margins were outside of recount territory, so they would have had to pay. I would have liked to see at least one.
This is the exact kind of thinking that has gotten the Democrats in trouble with their own constituency. You can demand recounts without insurrection. Integrity withers.
When all they do is project, we’re not really being like them…i believe we must stand up at all big moments & fight the corruption.
Then fucking pay. Good lord we're such weenies.
Absolutely! It would be worth every penny compared to this shitshow.
@angrystaffer.bsky.social this type of response as you see fuels significant misinformation -"not to turn into them' is a red herring....there either is or isn't evidence (I have seen none) Every state has a recount process. The turnout was weak in the demographics Harris needed....
....and combined with internal and public polling Harris knew it was a fruitless endeavor. Previous elections were even closer. The little wish statement just fuels baseless speculation. I trust you meant well....and as you see...the material from disinformation grifters showed up in the response
For example. PA margins: 2016: ~<50k 2020: ~80k 2024: ~120k Not razor thin
All of the swing states conduct post-election audits of some kind. Nothing showed up. www.scribd.com/document/787...
www.gregpalast.com/trump-lost-v...
I’m not disputing that voter suppression efforts impacted the election; there’s plenty of evidence for that. I’m saying recounts probably wouldn’t have uncovered tally manipulation, since nothing surfaced in the audits.
Many audits stop counting after 100 votes per machine. But the ElectionTruthAlliance.org analyses found anomalies after 350 votes. A knowledgeable hacker would know this. The percentage of votes for president without any down ballot votes for the same party was inordinately large.
Your post indicates a significant misunderstanding of the ETAs NV claims
bsky.app/profile/trev...
Can you provide a source for your claim of stopping after 100 votes? verifiedvoting.org/auditlaw/nev...
But we should not deny the reality just because of the Big Lie. That could be their plan all along.
Lying cheaters gonna lie and cheat.
YES! This!!!
Yeah I think one modest recount or two is a healthy part of a functional election and is a far cry from being “just like MAGA”. We are dealing with a candidate who - demonstrably cheated in 2016 - tried to cheat in 2020 with fake electors and “find me votes” - is openly rigging midterms
Have you lobbied your state rep and senator to change the law so your state follows a different process? Where and why do you think a different process is justified and what was wrong with the audit process used?
I'm tired of the "don't turn into them" bullshit. If that's truly the reason the entire democrat party is a joke
Seriously 👆🏼
Truly. That’s exactly what Trump said he did. Isn’t that a confession? Isn’t that a reason to investigate?
Totally disagree. Information coming out matches what we saw. So many people. So many women! The energy in her campaign compared to his. Musk and Trump almost confessed to shenanigans. We are and never be like maga- their endless complains about 2020 set us up to not contest when they rigged again
been saying this for months. because Dems didn't want to seem like maga they didn't contest it and trump and Elon counted on that
The same people insisted those polls were wrong and/or rigged, too. The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem, and too many people are unwilling to admit that this country elected trump again.
How many Russian bomb threats were registered in Atlanta on Election Day of last year in an effort to obviously scare blue precinct voters from going to the polls? We heard fk all from the Democrats in response to this after the election. This sort of spineless response cannot be tolerated again.
Yes, but perhaps it’s a trap to try to avoid looking like the « other (MAGA) guy. » IMO, recounts should be tolerated on both sides who are feeling doubts without name-calling. In sports, don’t they defer to vidéos for disputed calls?
We wouldn’t turn into MAGA. They set this up so we couldn’t say anything! Trump’s 2020 “stolen election” lie was projection. He set the stage so if he lost in 2024, he’d cry fraud—and if he rigged a win, Dems would be too afraid to call him out. This isn’t politics. It’s democracy under attack.
I realize you qualified your answer with “largely matched what polls looked like”. But doesn’t Tuesday’s win in Iowa align with Ann Selzer’s poll’s results? No way was tRUmp going to be humiliated by losing Iowa. In tRUmp’s case, it wasn’t Win Big or Go Home. It was, Win Big or Go To Prison.
According to the NSA analysis, TFG has never won any elections and our elections haven't been free or fair since pre-2000 b/c of electronic voting machines with backdoors in favor of Republicans. It's why they want to get rid of mail-in ballots, the only hand-counted, paper ballots we have left.
The GOP has only won elections through cheating because they are so unpopular they can't win in a fair race. That's what the decades of GOP gerrymandering and voter suppression have been for. To keep them in power.
Here's how P47, 'won'
There were bomb threats at my polling place and several others. I’m sure lots of people who were in line didn’t return, and yet I haven’t heard a thing about that since election night.
If they'd been smart, they wouldn't have only had bomb threats in swing states but criminal traitors are eejits.
Budget cuts 🤷♀️
Right. How could those not have been tracked down?
What was it, like 72 bomb threats for the day...and all of them in Dem strongholds? ☹️
Over 200. SMART Elections will be publishing a report on the bomb threats in coming weeks. SMARTelections.us
Was unaware of this, Taylor, thx! 👍
All of them in swing states.
Yup...how many votes lost per state? 😔
Wow, I never even heard that happened.
I thought it may have been ~72 I heard first, then later (end of day), it had gone up to ~135...apparently, over 200 😡
☝️☝️☝️
Once trump dies, the election manipulation will leak or be announced. Our intelligence agencies and those around the world have been aware for some time. Come on, if election truth alliance figured this out months ago, then they know. The biggest scandal in U.S. history won’t last long.
*Biggest scandal second only to the fact that our government has been in contact with extraterrestrials since the 1940’s. I’ll die on that hill too.
If each swing state was a coin toss, there is a 1 in 128 chance that it lands heads 7 times in a row. Not likely

You are being dishonest, and you know it. I’m TIRED of people with social media cred *being afraid* of looking like a conspiracy theorist, EVEN THOUGH Trump AND Musk admitted to rigging the election both before and since AND @electiontruthalliance.org has SO MANY receipts. @angrystaffer.bsky.social

What about the "alleged" CIA guy who said he was witness to NSA forensic count & Harris/Walz won? Was that an internet b.s. story? PA evidently has a law suit about abnormalities. Also DOGE's stealth back door that was reported on one of the alt accts by employee in dept data disappeared remotely
bsky.app/profile/dbma...
There is no lawsuit in PA bsky.app/profile/r5-t...
I saw snopes piece but there was 2nd whistleblower story that wasn't covered. You have to admit, DOGE operatives using stealth backdoor to delete/alter data is a thing. There was a purpose for bomb scares that is suspicious because they were only in swing states. Felon & helno admitted tampering.
I don't have to admit anything
bsky.app/profile/r5-t...
Is there really a second (or even first) "whistleblower" bsky.app/profile/pink...
In the legal sense, no, there is not. They are using the popular sense of the word. Zarnowski, if he really ever worked for the CIA, would have had to comply with the Whistleblower Protection Act if he wanted legal protection for revealing classified info.
I get your point. It was written that nothing he revealed was classified only hidden.
😂 you be you. I'll pay attention to what people in the effected departments are telling us.
Please do not conflate my fact checking disinformation with an endorsement of Trump, Musk, or DOGE I fucking hate then and despise grifters taking advantage of people's false hopes
I want to run screaming..if I hear one more person say we don't want to look like MAGA.WE'RE AT A THREAD OF BEING DESTROYED. I'm happy to provide at least 7 reasons why this election needs to be investigated & I will not even include the president and his side kick admitting to tampering.Dont use 💰
Isn’t there one going to court in NY where Kamala didn’t get a single vote?
Yes, but it turns out Biden received no votes in that same precinct four years ago. It’s a small precinct representing a tight-knit Hasidic community that appears to vote as a bloc. There are similar patterns in other precincts.
But a judge ordered a recount.
Oh I didn’t know about the Biden one, just this one www.newsweek.com/judge-2024-e... Judge in 2024 Election Results Lawsuit Sets Timeline - Newsweek
But some voters came forward and signed affidavits that they voted for Kamala in that district.

The voter statements were a different district where a few of Dianne Sares neighbors told her they voted for her when asked directly by her It is a weak case, but the above characterization is way off.

Common tactic of flipping votes is to keep them so close as not to trigger a recount. Billionaires don't risk securing voting machine source codes without both the ability and intent to use them.
I'm not leaving my broken leg without a cast because someone else FAKED a break. Miss me with this bs take.
Precisely this!
bsky.app/profile/r5-t...
By design. What you need to do is not play into the 'we don't want to be them' bs. No way in hell he 'won' anything let alone all 7 swing states. Starlink made sure the magical within margin just like 16. And the out of nowhere extra 5 mi to make him the 'popular winner'? You buy that? Got a bridge
Because they knew he won based on their internal polling.
Because the Dems are their worst enemy, too set in old times rules & missing the big picture. I personally dislike Newson, do not think he stands a chances to be President, but he gets credit for understanding you do not write strongly worded letters, you fight back at the same level.
The dems are too weak. They always just roll over and it’s super frustrating.
Pour ne pas fragiliser la démocratie, je pense que le clan Harris a pensé que remettre une fois de plus le vote en cause jetterait le doute sur le pilier de la démocratie que sont les votations!
It's been proven over numerous studies that it would be statistically impossible to win all 7 swing states. Plus, Kamala apparently had zero votes in states that had several Democrat votes, highly unlikely. All this data and apparently nothing will happen.
So many places where Dems won down ballot but Kamala lost the Presidential vote - which was the REASON for the turnout. Are we really supposed to believe someone voted Democatic for Congress or state or local office, but not for PRESIDENT??? Never made sense.

Democrats will never win that argument. It’s way too late. The battle to fight is now leading up to the mid terms (if they happen), not the battle of the past.
because the dems were too busy infighting. that's what we do and that's why we lost (along with a little help from russia), and that's why we will lose again.
He didn't. Florida has never counted votes that fast. It was rigged. And the NSA analysis proves it. According to the NSA TFG has never won any elections and is only in office due to backdoors in favor of Republicans in electronic voting machines.
TY TY TY TY for posing this extremely valid comment
How far do you see this redistricting nonsense going? Also, SCOTUS (or maybe Roberts) seems to be having a little heartburn over their “president-is-above-the-law” ruling. What’s the chance we see this issue resurrected and revisited in some way? Think there’s a red line anywhere on that horizon?
What thoughts if any, do you have about the UN moving three of its major agencies, UNICEF, UNFPA, and UN Women to Nairobi, Kenya?
How soon do you think it is until we have President Vance and do you think he’ll be better or worse?
Is he fully aware or is he just a puppet?
The two are not mutually exclusive (cough)

How doomed are we now that the CDC has been completely taken over by RFK and Trump?
Main things here are: (i) impact on R&D; the brain drain we are experiencing now will not stop any time soon, and investing into a new brain will be excessively expensive; (ii) manipulated scientific data that will be available to the American public.
Actually-our side is educated and knows how to protect ourselves and our loved ones. The other side, however, thinks that whatever MAGATS convicted felon states is true. I have no tolerance for them anymore, so let them all drop dead should the new virus come around.
it's going to decimate public health and take decades to regain the trust of the public and not to mention the impact on the new rising stars of public health. the trainees will suffer and our future will be impacted.
That’s what I’ve been hearing and it’s what scares me.
This is why we’ve been scared since FFOTUS began running.

Why did no Democrats challenge the election results? They only seem to care about what's happening to them now as they're hunted down or kidnapped. Trump did it 3 times vs Biden and didn't pay for any.

As Dem governors are stepping up, is Gretchen Whitmer being exceptionally quiet lately or is it my imagination.
She's a blue gov. but the state's purple now. Plus she's trying to get recovery funds for N Michigan's devastating ice storm this past March. She's been to the WH a few times to face It for this purpose and is probably trying not to make waves.
she's bn in the news in the last week. & then today: "Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer called a special election Friday for a state Senate seat that has been vacant for nearly nine months, setting up a contest that could let Republicans hobble Whitmer’s agenda in the Democrat’s final year in office."
Any chance that SCOTUS stays the 5th Circuit's stay of its order declaring the tariffs illegal?

Very interesting question. I would have thought survival instincts would force GOP reps to take a step away from Trump well before the midterms.
I hope they do!
There’s always hope.
I think that’s likely. They’re getting absolutely destroyed by their Constituents right now. Turns out people don’t love the platform of kissing Trump’s ass at the cost of everything else.
I’m hoping Susan Collins will be the next Senator to retire.
She's one that will also go out feet first.
from your lips!
GOP is getting destroyed at the town halls and ribbon cutting events. However, will MAGATS go and vote for anyone else, but their GOP representatives? NO!! MAGATS love hanging themselves on the rope their representatives & their dying-fast-decomposing-while- alive convicted felon offer them to use.
Trump won’t be on the ballot in 2026. Their turnout will not be the same
Tell them voting is WOKE.
You see, MAGATS & their leaders hate WOKE, but none (MAGATS or their leaders) of them really understand or are able to define what WOKE means. I asked a few of them, and none was able to explain.
They catch WOKE by filling out a ballot. They need to avoid getting that at all costs. Stay safely home and burn some lavender essential oils and enjoy Ivermectin and raw milk smoothies.

hopefully they will put on nike sneakers and follow her to a death cult.
Probably but they will just be replaced by even worse Republicans in most cases. All the Republicans who stood against the MAGAts have already left office and were replaced by worse Republicans.
One could only hope.
No. The timing of Ernst's decision coincided with Dem Catelin Drey winning a state senate special election in a blood red district. Trump won it by 11 points in Nov, so Drey’s margin of victory, currently about 10 points, represents a 21-point swing to Democrats. I reckon that really spooked Ernst.
Her campaign's internals must be craptastic...

Normie dems tell the dems they think are rabble rousers or too progressive to be quiet all the time, and they keep them from leading committees. They are not only holding back the party from the change that needs to happen they are also selling out their constituents. Status quo isn't working.
Agreed. IMO we lost the blue wall because of progressives
THIS!!!!!!
NOT progressive here, but there is no trust I have left in our current Dem leadership. If Dem leadership counts on we will go out and vote blue just because this necrotic-decomponsing-almost dead convicted felon thug has angered us enough to go vote for Dems out of anger, tell them to think twice.
I somewhat agree but not at this moment. I think not voting is as dangerous as voting GOP. BUT the old guard has to go!! If nothing more because they aren’t fighters & aren’t going to the wall for the working guys & gals. I’m sooo frustrated I’m almost ready to run for office locally. I won’t buuut
I agree with you that we have to vote blue because our democracy is most important. However, current Dem leadership has to accept progressives (OR GO!). And, we have to invent a very unique approach to permanently "acquire" dem-leaning independents, or we will fight these MAGA lunatics for years.
Agreed!!
I had a revolutionary thought, awhile back. It looks to me like...
Democratic Party: "Forget the left, they have to vote for us anyway! And even if they don't, they're too few to matter anyway! And even if leftists who won't vote for us somehow become numerous enough to hurt us electorally, they can serve as our scapegoat!"
Sad and yet 1000% true. I used to have some of those opinions. But not anymore!
A lot of the old Dems need to just support the new. And try this is from an old person.
I'm not supporting anything or anyone cuz "new". They need to be qualified and comprehend the coalition building required for the Big Tent.
Right! There's a surefire way to avoid another Fetterman
What happened to Fetterman? I remember thinking he was a good guy then he went MAGA?
He was never a good guy. Lots of us, and especially Black women, warned that he was not trustworthy. The way he pulled a shotgun on a random Black jogger based on nothing but suspicion that he might have been involved in a crime the week before ... Huge red flag that a bunch of people ignored
Wow. I missed that. I think I mostly saw him on Colbert and was thinking he was doing some positive things at the time but that's all I remember. I guess I'm getting old.
He already had some red flags as mentioned, but after his stroke, it intensified greatly. He refused the mental evaluation that people often need to monitor personality changes that can occur post stroke. Several of his staffers anonymously told a reporter that he wasn't the same (worse) after.
Mental evaluations need to be mandatory but I'm not sure what the penalty for refusal would be.
He seems to have gotten more volatile and much harder to deal with since his stroke, but anyone willing to research his record during the primaries would have seen that Malcolm Kenyatta and Conor Lamb were both superior choices
i'll bad mouth anyone who deserves it. glad you at least acknowledge they think progressives are a threat. but 'normie' anything to this queer disabled native... i feel a bit like mlk: white moderates are the problem. so when they act like dems, i'm good. when they act like them, no.
They say politicians campaign in poetry and govern in prose but the far left progressive wing of the Dem party is in lalaland.They are delusional about any of it getting done. Everyone loved Bernie but the people living in the real world know Congress wasn't going to vote for any of those things.
Except for Schumer and other weak Democrats.
Fine thought, but the party has to dance with those that 'brung em. There's no negotiating with those that would leave a minority behind to chase non-existent centrist bigots.
The far left aren't the ones that "brung 'em". Ironic that you use the words "leave a minority behind".
Weird that you would call LGBT 'the far left'. What's up with that?
I thought you were responding to Angry's post about Progressives. If you were responding to the post that he was responding to, that one is blocked for me. If you weren't, my bad. Please ignore.
I don’t think Cuomo is a normie Dem. Also Dems would run the board if they pushed the class warfare anti oligarch play. Corporations and the rich will never save us!
its a little late for that. how do we have the same leadership that tolerated garland and fought the squad harder than they ever fought nazis?
Have to start with new leadership. Some of them are “very fine people” (sorry for that) but Jeffries, Shumer and others must step aside.
True. Let's not be our own worst nightmare.
If “normie Dems” do shitty things, they should be criticized.
Agreed! If we can't find unite and find common ground, Trumpism goes on and on. Personally, although I'm a moderate Dem, I quite easily support more progressive Dems and consider them allies. I can't say they always return the favor.
I think of the moderates as hosts. They are responsible for setting a cordial tone and should be expected to show some tolerance to those who have been out in the elements.
Even in your analogy, no one would agree to host guests with intent to burn the house down.
Ugh what if the house were to be condemned due to failure to use for the purposes for which it was designed
The house wasn't anywhere near condemned. Now it is thanks to people that can't tell the difference between ongoing renovations and a wrecking ball.
The landlords are living in the 1990s, back when they were in their second decade of power
Middle-conservative dems may win over those on the left, not center, if there are efforts to stop acting like progressives (think NYC mayor candidate, etc.) are going to delegitimize the left. Fresh views that get people excited are needed more than strongly worded letters right now.
This. Why can't people understand this basic, blatantly obvious fact?
Exactly. They can’t think they can have their uncommitted campaign that helped Trump and then expect Dems to support those who pushed that uncommitted nonsense.
I am not on the same side as a party that supports, enables, and provides arms for genocides and routinely refuses to do anything beyond "negotiate with the fascists" and I never will. Its them that need to join their brethren on the right, and leave the work of fighting for humanity to the left.
Then I guess we all have to deal with the consequences. Thanks for nothing.
Yes, this!
Yes and no. The masters tools will not dismantle the masters house. Too many elected Dems have been wielding the masters tools for years and need to be removed.
You sound like Father Anrgy: "Progressives have to understand that they can’t just badmouth ‘normie’ Dems at will." Times like these call for a revolution in the "norms" that got us losing freedoms every day
Hallelujah!!!!
That's where Rs beat us. They do not break ranks, ever.
The Dems must be Machiavellian.
Our current Dem leadership is sadly very ineffective. Social media posts about what we already know, some lawsuits and hearings. We NEED fresh, new progressives willing to take chances. A lot of these do nothing Dems really need to step aside. Sadly, they won't.
And Dems aren’t a monolith. Some candidates resonate in one area and not another. We need to focus on winning every election - not on purity tests.
This is the statement that should be said every day until Election Day, 2028
Yes!
Dems need to have Mamdani’s ENERGY and passion and understanding- not necessarily be so far progressive - still need to fit their constituents.
As Bannon said: “there are no enemies to my right”. The Dems have to think like that too- no enemies to the left.
There is no left in the US worth paying attention to.
Bannon the hobo needs fumigation.
Unfortunately the far left is the reason we lost, they didn't bothered to show up and vote. They couldn't see the bigger picture. Nothing else will matter if we don't have a democracy.
There were many reasons Dems lost, that’s just one element which theoretically could have been offset and perhaps even bettered if the Dems had tried to appeal to some of the desires of the far left rather than relying on the more centrist demographic. They did lose voters from both.
Couldn't see the bigger picture? You're the one who can't think beyond one election at a time. You're the one advocating for the same lesser evilism that has destroyed everything over the last 45 years. You are advocating for the fascists.
Scores of colleagues and I are “far left” and we all turned out to vote for Kamala. The problem is systemic
The far left is not why we lost. A late hat in the ring and likely rigged elections are why we lost--blaming any on the correct side for the defeat will not pull us together.
As noted, the centrist wing has been just as bad regarding Mamdani. The only reason to bash any fellow dem is for lack of fight.
Overly Broad-and a lazy scapegoat-excuse.
The far left isn't the reason Harris lost. Harris and the Democratic Establishment is the reason Harris lost. They punched left and tried to embrace the right (unindicted war criminal Dick Cheney endorsed me!). That was a losing formula. She should've tried to get votes she could actually get.
She kinda had more people that wanted to vote for her
Turnout wasn't significantly higher among centrists. Democrats made much the same mistakes as in 2016, and got a similar result. (But why learn from your mistakes when you can scapegoat the left?)
I can’t imagine being much further left (I’m left of @warren.senate.gov!) and you can bet I voted for Kamala. I adore her. Loved President Biden, too. He was far left of middle of the road.
But lots didn't they influenced others They did it to Hillary too chanting No TPP throughout the invocations & Michelle Obama's speech I am left too but it's time to be pragmatic. Pretty sure "Killer Kamala" wouldn't be allowing genocide in Gaza rn.
Thank you.
There’s no one reason we lost, it was a whole bunch of things.
Agree! But progressives repeating "Killer Kamala" sure didn't help
Tell that to the Bernie-haters...
There could be improvement in that area.
Not many people to the right of Bannon tho
Very good advice.
If they are taking AIPAC or crypto $$$$, they aren't on the correct side. People need to start having a moral compass. Calling these things purity tests just demonstrates a lack or knowledge, morals or both.
If you think AIPAC and crypto are the highest priority when we are heading into the bowels of fascism, your brain isn't on the correct side of sanity.
It is precisely that kind of thinking that GOT US TO THIS POINT. The fact is that most Americans have not been paying attention to anything remotely political for 40 years. Most Americans have no ideology beyond vapid consumption & are therefore incapable of knowing what morality is.
That is the most deeply rooted infection in American history. You can begin with what happened with invasion of an occupied country and trace an unbroken line all the way through to today.
I really can't follow whatever point you are trying to make.
Likewise.
Hard no. Full stop. It's not precisely "that type of thinking". You have no concept of what morality is if you think if you think AIPAC or crypto are root cause.. How we got here is the failure to address the evils of White supremacy culture.
I so agree with this. The mention of support for Mamdani in a purple district like mine, would send voters packing. The very centrist Dem we have IS the best we can hope for here. Big tent. Every area is different.
“Normie ” Dems do it to progressives ALL THE TIME. Wake up.
💯
I agree that the party broadly needs unity and solidarity across the board, but I also think it's perfectly acceptable to badmouth Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand.
I'm 70 years old living in a small town in MN and believe we need to vote in young progressives and get rid of the old establishment Dems who have their hands in corporate pockets. It's time to legislate for the real people.
I believe that we will remain a fractured party, until a true leader emerges.
we should all be supporting mamdani and rejecting the folks who tought aoc and hunter biden were more of a threat than the nazis
who FOUGHT
Yes! And Newsome and Bernie and AOC and anyone who is speaking out loudly
Yes, they freaking SHOULD.
You betcha
It's hard to imagine them being worse off for the change...
YES YES YES !!!!
👍
It’s MAMDANI.
Dems DID win. If they stopped ALLOWING rigged elections. You have a problem identifying ACTUAL problems.
Besides the other agencies Trump has seized, what do you make of Heather Honey being named to a high position in the DHS Elections division? Are the votes going to be secure? www.propublica.org/article/heat...
I’m sorry - someone named Heather Honey is going to be in charge of election security? 😳 SMH, this entire administration is an SNL skit
Geez … Heather Honey: “A conservative election researcher whose faulty findings on voter data were cited by President Donald Trump as he tried to overturn his 2020 election loss has been appointed to an election “integrity role” at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.” WHY DHS? (We all know)
Nah, the producers would tell them to get that bullshit script out of their faces
And fire the writer (it's firing season at SNL, folks!)
I read that and first thought: I took a day away from the news and now I am behind on nicknames.

If she is, she works for the villain.

HEATHER HONEY. Sounds like another of Trump's porn stars.
Stripper in charge? Who will be her aide? Gislaine?

Are they making a porno now?
When ‘the news we’ve all been waiting for’ eventually breaks, how will you celebrate?
Good evening Angry, Is convicted felon trump going to try to decapitate the Maduro govertnment?
Yes, WTF is going on with deployments to the shores of Venezuela and Mexico? Getting no coverage. If the story flies under the radar, next it will be Panama and Greenland and Canada's Arctic?
aje.io/8nvnrn Trump is saying cartels are the reason.
Already covert operatives in Greenland. The Danes have found out and are really choked.

He’s a child who likes moving his plastic ships around on a big map. There is no plan, no strategy, no policy just like everything else. But he’ll get some cheeseburgers and a juice box if it’ll occupy headlines for a few days while he’s “indisposed “.
As a Venezuelan, I hope so. Also, Diosdado Cabello, the Rodriguez siblings, Luisa Stella, and EVERYONE. ELSE.
Do you think the Epstein files will get released?
The tariff ruling seems big. But will it make a difference? It seems like he (they) get away with ignoring everything?
How long will it be b4 freezing your credit at the credit bureaus means absolutely nothing?
So…Trump not seen yesterday, not seen today and no events listed all holiday weekend on his public schedule that was just released. Setting aside the fact that the media should BE DOING ITS F’ING JOB and ask questions, what is the rumor mill saying about what’s REALLY going on with his health?
bsky.app/profile/joel... This is a weird thing for him to say
That's code for, Felon47 is dying and he can't wait to be Felon48.
THIS is the question I was hoping he'd respond to! But its OK, we don't engage in needless speculation on this thread....😁 I wouldn't tease ya if I didn't love ya! 😇
The media will never report the truth about him. When he passes they will blame Democrats and others for causing him so much "stress". 😐
Blood transfer. It worked for Keith Richards
A blood transfusion doesn’t take that long. Unless there were complications from it that they’re trying to cover up and deal with.
Transfer. Supposedly, keith Richardson had all of his blood replaced over a weekend, coming out of it so healthy he didn't need drugs anymore.
And Lance Armstrong!
He’s just playing golf ⛳️
Exactly
Actually I read somewhere that he hasn’t played golf in 14 days, apparently highly unusual. 🤷🏻♀️
🤔
I’ve also read he hasn’t played golf in 14 days which apparently is exceedingly unusual, especially when he gets US taxpayers to foot the bill.
14 days?????? Holy shit. That’s 2 whole weekends IN A ROW!!!! Gotta be a new record or something.
He played on the 24th. didtrumpgolftoday.com Donald Trump Golf Tracker
I knew 2 weeks was impossible for him.
How ironic would it be if he died of Covid?
Hmm a bunch of us in my family just got covid which was predicted to peak early september. Unfortunately his majesty (as well as FKRjr) prolly got shots).
It's a rumor. Just wishful thinking.
Who gets fired now for Army losing to Tarleton State??

Is it weird that my former grad-school classmate is wrecking the CDC? Is it weird that I am not at all surprised that he is doing this?
Do tell..
I went to grad school with Jim O'Neill
Say more, please
Check out my feed
I just did. JFC. What a dangerous knob. I’m sure whatever ideas he had then have only hardened in the intervening 30 years of working for psychopathic techno state dudes.
He was more of a cartoon back in those days. Not bright, but there were still peeks of a real human being below the surface. Now he reminds me of an invasive reptile with a killer instinct.
Lizard brain like a Komodo dragon.
Are we going to make it through this?
Which is better: hot bean water or hot leaf water?
Since the PLAGUE is making a hot comeback in New Mexico and California, what else should we expect? It’s not like the CDC or HHS is being run by competent, trustworthy scientists with decades of experience anymore. The purge of our brightest experts should make everyone wake up. I’m worried.
It always makes headlines but people have been getting plague in NM for many decades. I read about a 1961 outbreak in Pecos from a prairie dog town in a park. Hantavirus is actually scarier IMO.
It's worth pointing out that the Black Plague has a cure and is easily treated. A Covid comeback would be deadlier than a Plague comeback since it's harder to treat, mostly since it requires a complex vaccine that's a political hot topic as opposed to basic antibiotics that can be obtained anywhere.
Plague is not unusual in the SW and is entirely treatable with modern antibiotics. But, in the current political climate, any reports take on an unusual resonance. Be much more worried about the diseases we haven't spent decades, and centuries finding treatments for. You're right to be worried.
like Sars-Co-V2 was.... we STILL don't know much about covid, ie., long covid, so many diff. organ systems effected in diff people, getting covid is like playing Russian Roulette and now they're blocking access to its vaccine to the majority of Americans for no reason
With the permafrost melting, who knows what ancient disease it releases.
Bingo
i worry about drug-resistant bacterial infections... the abs we have for now work great for most of what's out there, but that list becomes extremely short once things start resisting cipro... the damage being done to our federal research programs nauseates me
You should be. Get every available vaccine you need now while you can.
I don’t think anything is out of the question at this point. A quote from my most recent piece: “Pandemics don’t wait for elections. Hollowing out the CDC may score Trump political points with the anti-vax crowd, but the bill will eventually come due, and it won’t be paid in votes.”
I'm going to get my shot.
“My shot” Not gonna waste my shot…. Hamilton
Please don’t waste it cause I won’t be eligible! 🤘
Same
Recommend you do it soon…my grandson had his sports physical today and the physician suggested a booster today because “we expect to not be resupplied in a timely manner, if at all”. Yikes
Thanks for the update. Waiting for the arrival of the latest vaccine.
Get whatever is available right now. You can always boost with a newer one down the road. The effectiveness wanes after about 6 months.
I'm going as quickly as possible.
M2
Couldn’t get it at CVS in NV or Az. I would have to go to Cali.
Sorry to hear you live in a red state. California knows that it's cheaper to prevent than to treat. I'm so old that I remember when there wasn't any difference.
Good luck. Most people are ineligible for the new Covid booster.
Not if you live in California.
I was told by Walgreens that I can't get the Covid shot because I'm not 65 or immunocompromised. Can't even get it if we pay out-of-pocket.
Meanwhile… columbiabasinherald.com/news/2025/au...
It's a mess and changing daily. Your dr might be able to give you a prescription. Dr's office should have guidance at this point.
Me too.
Next most likely pandemic is bird flu, H5N1. Preparations and studies were underway for a vaccine by Moderna. That's now been shut down by the Feds. If it does happen, it will be very bad. Historically it carries approx 50% death rate though the most recent death rate in the US is lower.
Those people responsible for cutting the funding need to understand one thing, this pandemic, it kills rich people too😳
You’re on 🔥 tonight!
You and Angry-my favorite dynamic duo.
Who else thinks that at least part of his aim is to rid our country of the elderly, the poor and the handicapped- those Melon Husk likes to call the parasites? Not sure he values anyone not rich, not working and (despite his not paying taxes) not paying taxes.
😆
That is spot on!
Perfection! In keeping with: Dept of War, Injustice Dept, Non-Commerce, Slave Labor, Environmental Pillaging Agency, etc.
can we please get the same level of outrage???
👀
Rates of positive covid tests are apparently highest in Texas. Yay Texas 🙄 The GOP-Fascist party happily killing off more people.
Measles and TB and Covid oh my TX is like Oz for disease brick road
Spot on quote
Excellent point
Wear a mask on a plane.
That’s for damn sure. I spoke to a CFD modeller that assessed viral contagion on a plane. You are almost guaranteed to catch anything that anyone else has that is airborne.
Lives. Paid for by lives. 💔
Innocent lives.
I saw this early & signed up for a grocery delivery
These anti-vaxers will eventually kill many of us. I had pneumonia in December & Covid again this month. Will I be eligible for the covid booster because I am not 65? I believe in SCIENCE, not CRACKPOT THEORIES!
they'll kill themselves way before the rest of us since we're actually up to date on shots. From what i've heard you can still get the booster even if you're not 65 and older.
Here in AZ you must have a doctors note to get the shot, only old one, even if you are 65 & up! 😖
To quote Hamilton, "I'm not givin' away my shot." I'll jump through all the necessary hoops for my flu shot & covid booster!
Well at this rate we can expect a plague of locusts or frogs any day now
It’s in Arizona as well. Someone died of it about 5 weeks ago.
Ring Around the Rosies is still timely! 🎵😷
For perspective I live in the Sierras (Reno/Tahoe) and spends a lot of time there. People are blowing the reports of plague out of proportion. There is always a risk of plague with wildlife-especially squirrels and every year about a half a dozen people catch it, so really it’s just as it always is
Plague is no big deal. You can treat it effectively with antibiotics. The big deal is out there waiting for us and we don't know what it is yet, just like COVID.
Fyi- the bubonic plague has been endemic in parts of Colorado, NM etc since before the 1970s when I first learned about it
The fear and anxiety for our children and their future if there is a future is overwhelming these days.
Shoot, I missed it. Is it true no one has seen him in public since Tuesday,
It's what I've heard. No golfing this weekend either.
Oh damn, @angrystaffer.bsky.social just posted a picture
What are the 39 steps?
Hi there Angry! Ok. Really. Are GOP officials actually scared of him? Or are they just power hungry and greedy and void of morality? Is it blackmail or the promise of being on the payout? What could they possibly be so scared of? Or are they cashing in on the collapse of society?
Why not all the above? I think it just depends on which goon it is.
But actually, what could there possibly be to be scared of that is worse than anything we already know? If being a pedophile isn’t a deal breaker, which we know it isn’t and we know it’s not just the one guy, what could possibly be a deal breaker? What could he possibly have over anyone’s head?
He operates like a mob boss. He threatens to harm people's families. He threatens to give $$ to candidates running against them. And Pedophiles know who the other Pedophiles are and he can expose them to their families.
That makes it make sense!
All of above.
Is it wise to retire early and move to Mexico??
México doesn't want US citizens living there. They are rioting to get them out. If you're retired they don't want you there because you're using resources & not paying taxes. Lots of US citizens are trying to steal beaches to make them private, kick out vendors, musicians etc Leave Mexico alone
Not American and fuck off!!!
Oh yeah we definitely don't want your kind. Stay the fuck out of México, you will not fit in. We don't treat strangers like this. You wouldn't understand the culture.
Breathlessly ignorant!! But looking at your other responses, I understand why!!! I’m starting a business in Mexico and will employ 10-20 locals But now I think I should lol at another country, with morons like you in Mexico best to look elsewhere!!!
Suure, like I said, we don't need you. Mexico doesn't need white saviors, pay attention to the news. @claudiasheinbaum.bsky.social is kicking ass helping the country. You are in the wrong platform, Twitter is where people go to insult each other and call people names. You sound emotional.
Minimum wages in my company!! 300 -400 pesos/hr starting for labourers plus profit sharing 600-800 pesos/hr starting for the salespeople + commission and profit sharing + vehicle + gas card + laptop and cell phone + daily per diem and expense account But yea, my type is not welcome their!!!!
I was just thinking about this the other day. My dark side expects the GOP to cut SSI to people living abroad at the same time they raise the retirement age
I’m Canadian so no worries there! Been twice in the last year, great people(s) and great food!! It’s very affordable outside the tourist spots!!
Bragging that you’re Canadian is not going to win you friends. 😉
Says a lot that you think that was bragging!! The best part is that I don’t want any friends that think like you!!!
Note the winking emoji ...
Thank you
😉
Any chance Congress will actually boot RFK Jr.?
Are you still in the government?
Will this latest tariff ruling hold up in the Supreme Court?
No but just all the more reason to expand the court to reflect the number of circuit courts (13).
How ill is President Cankles?
Is there anything we should be keeping an ion that doesn’t seem to get mentioned in the media?
facelift
Whose? 😂
how did you meet mrs angry, and was it 'love at first sight'?
what is your job?
How much longer until someone stops this?
I have been quietly wondering when someone will “go rogue” and end this nightmare
I would not be opposed to this at all.
We all must be "someone."
We are.
What is your best guess for Trump’s medical condition?
Are you thinking about that once this nightmare is over, what America 2.0 is going to look like? New legislation, policies or even constitutional amendments?
Ugh I missed it again.
Is he planning martial law and troops at polling booths at the midterms? This feels like the true goal here.
ICE at polling places could keep a decisive number of people away! What should Dems be doing NOW to plan for this??!
It might be something he’s considering, but martial law in itself won’t stop an election. He doesn’t have the authority to cancel an election. And if people are going to try to stop us from voting? Good fucking luck.
Thats going to be Ice and National Guards future job
If he does martial law, explicitly by name then it would take away their most useful defense. That we’re hysterical. That doesn’t mean he won’t do it. Just that he will wait until he has to or it’s acceptable imo
Not having the authority hasn’t stopped him yet. At least, not since the immunity ruling.
I say general strike now, but stay home and off the streets to avoid martial law and the brand new ICE private army. Go out only when absolutely necessary. Stock up on goods and food if you can and shut this MFer down. Kept it shutdown. Guessing a month- 2 month will create the change we need.
I'm stocking up on supplies now. Be smart. I live in a hurricane area anyway, so why not? I'd also have some hidden cash in my house. No time to put our heads in the sand. Be prepared for anything and everything and hope to the Universe you don't need it.
He doesn’t have the authority to do most of the things he’s done. Why stop at voting?
I frequently flash back to the WI Supreme Court election (2020?) where Republicans forced people to vote in person while Covid raged. Turnout was massive as voters were pissed at having to literally risk their lives to exercise their rights.
It's the counting of the votes... or not counting of the votes that is going to be the problem.
It's the tally, states need to step up.
I’ve been voting by mail for years, but if they post the National Guard at my polling place, I will start voting in person again. Screw them.
As have I, and this was my first thought. I’ll wait in line all day for this. I’m spoiling for a fight
If he stops mail in ballots, and incites violence in the streets with military in blue cities…he will make people scared to go out to vote in person.
It’s the counting of the votes & reporting of vote totals that concerns me.
La dictature se met en place, si les américains ne s'insurgent pas maintenant ensuite il sera trop tard, les démocrates ne prennent pas la mesure de ce qui arrive, ils ont tort de compter sur les institutions quand Trump compte sur la force! www.wsws.org/fr/articles/...
What if he prevents the new Congress from being sworn in? Like, physically? Until he has time to litigate every individual Democratic win?
Dead folks dont vote... bsky.app/profile/amal...
No worries for the millionaire/billionaires they already have bunkers at the ready they'll be just fine...
He doesn’t have the authority to do half the shit he does but he does it anyway. Hence the troops surrounding the bunker.
...but he may have the power to try and seize the machines afterward for made-up discrepancies.
There are 50 state and hundreds of local elections. He doesn't have the personnel to stop them all. Will he fuck with them? Absolutely.
I worry that come election time in 2026, he'll have the National Guard or whatever military in all the blue cities, call in some fake bomb threats, and make people clear out before they get to vote.
I had that thought too.
He doesn’t have the “authority” to do much of what he’s already done. He acts with impunity. That’s the worst part of all of it. The Supreme Court or Congress could stop him if they were not already complicit or cowardly.
You may appreciate the following: . bsky.app/profile/cre8...
I just figure he's going to ignore Congress (which he's already doing) and ignore the Supreme Court. I mean, seriously, our judicial system works due to following the law and respecting the courts. He respects no one.
Our only hope is the military will ignore an unlawful order. But like Angry said, good fucking luck stopping the people’s vote.
Sure won't stop my vote. 💪💪
🤜 🤛
All of the above. Hence my fear…
Like he gives a damn about authority...
He doesnt have the authority to do half of what he has done We are in who the fuck is gonna stop me world now
Another excellent point in favor of mail-in voting.
Good fucking luck” is the energy I carry. Have a great weekend
Plus, you want to see an economy come to a screeching halt…try imposing martial law.
Everything they are doing is straight out of P2025. Everything. Deploying the military against civilians is on page 555. Canceling the election is also part of P2025. It's the only plan they are following. www.project2025.observer
Yeah,,, he does not have to cancel elections or declare martial law,,, how hard is it to have ICE goons abduct people in line to vote in urban areas only?
We say good fucking luck as privileged white men. We’re completely safe. Now go talk to women and POC. That’s who he wants to discourage from voting. Those are exactly the groups he’s targeting.
As a woman --granted, a privileged one--I say GFL as well. He can target away. We're not victims either.
💪💙
God bless you, Cara.
What’s the voters’ recourse for encountering armed troops at polling places? Voting will be suppressed if 47 wants it to be.
If heavily armed partisans occupy the polling place they can and will suppress the vote and potentially wreck the integrity of the election. youtu.be/gwi-Ao-3n20?...
But he is trying to do away with mail in ballots. I get one (for now) and will take it to polling place to drop off. However, do we even have a shred of hope they will be counted correctly? Seems he would never allow a loss for R's.
In the meantime, maybe he will keel over or be on a ventilator being kept alive by any means.
👏👏👏
But wasn’t there a lot of fucking with specific polling places last year? They don’t need to interfere everywhere.
Since when has Phony47 needed the authority to do what he wants? He and his regime ignore all laws, rules, traditions and norms, and then ignore court rulings they don't like.
He's going to try to frighten people, especially POC from going to vote in person. He will send the Storm Troopers. Dems will file law suits, he will lose but the election will be long over and he will have accomplished his goal. SUPPRESS the turnout. #EpsteinFiles don't let them distract us.
He doesn't need to stop voting. He only needs to suppress voting.
I think he plans To have the country be at war, so that he can put off or cancel elections. He already expressed interest in that when speaking with some other leader, It's on Video.

I've been wondering if the reason he's pushing the National Guard into blue cities is to spark a fake incident where he can cry that he needs to declare martial law to "save the country..." Don't put it past him.
Exactement www.wsws.org/fr/articles/...
I think he will declare martial law so there will be no election. I hope I’m wrong.
My biggest fear. I hope we both are, however…
It's all part of P2025. Everything. www.project2025.observer
😬😪
That’s my fear 🫤
I feel that is the game plan also. 😔
If you mean 45, he will be unalive before the midterms. I Can Only Imagine the fires JD Vance will start
Do we know anything concrete about his current health?
"Concrete" might describe the state of his arteries.
Fair response.
Catelin Drey just flipped a Trump-carried Iowa state Senate seat and broke the GOP supermajority—her district flipped Red in 2024. With that and other recent Dem special-election wins, how hopeful should we be about pushing back against the MAGA agenda? Is this change sustainable heading into 2026?
Who is Stephen Miller more loyal to? Trump or Vance?
WTF is going on? Sorry, just venting. No need to answer such a vague question.
Do you support this? theplotagainstamerica.com
In all the years I have followed you - you have NEVER not done a public AMA….Thank you!! A long time admirer!
Hi Angry! Is it wishful thinking to hope that the 2024 election will be investigated based on the findings of the @electiontruthalliance.org?
Why isn't the press pushing harder?
What would you say is the most urgent thing Democrats should be doing right now?
It’s been two weeks, right? Everything was supposed to be fixed. Did I miss something?
No, a few days. He played golf last weekend.
Why is the mayor of DC giving into Trump? Do they have her kids in a basement?
What are her options? If she doesn’t try to work with him, he will fire her and replace her with someone terrible.
He can’t fire her, she is an elected official….but he can sic his brainwashed maga lemmings to harass and threaten her.
You’re right. It’s illegal for him to fire her, but he doesn’t follow the law.
He doesn’t so she has to have courage and immediately push back on any and everything he tries like Lisa Cook and Susan Monarez did. Drag him to court and through the pit of public opinion
I love Charles Blow! 😂
He has something on her
What is no one paying attention to that we should be? There’s just so much going on.
Any sanctions or penalties for Russia after destroying a US facility in Ukraine? Haven't heard a thing on this.
I am “old” but not a 90 year old hippie. Retired. I need to outlive this regime! Give me some hope. Thanks for being there for us, Angry.
90 year olds were born in 1936. They’re not the hippie generation.
We’re aging at at least ten times the normal rate this year.
I too, am “old” and have been waiting 10 years for him to be gone. I Am gonna live to see him gone !
I knew someone with the same swelling and was fouydead three months later.
Did Trump's health problems start before he met privately with Putin, or after?
I hope he puffs up til he explodes 💨💨💨
did he catch balloonheaditis from charlie kirk?
Where/when was this pic taken?
Putin's instructions envelope probably laced
What is your biggest realistic fear that could hit next with this administration?
Here’s university of Michigan’s Dr. Mebane’s statistical analysis that corroborates the findings of election truth alliance - vote count manipulation in Pennsylvania. Dr. Mebane wrote a guide about election forensics for the US government so he knows his stuff. websites.umich.edu/~wmebane/PA2...

I don’t think Angry is on board with this stuff—yet. He’s kind of hedged his bets and cautioned against going all MAGA. I, on the other hand, have read most of this stuff and find it compelling and scary. Every state controlled by Dems should be all over this voting machine shit.
Well said. Honestly I’m glad that angry even addressed the question.
He didnt win every single swing state in the same election that he barely “won” the popular vote Are we supposed to believe that ALL 88 counties that “flipped” allegiance went to a single party for the first time since 1934? Hell no He lost The data proves it Pass it on♻️ bsky.app/profile/andr...
What makes people think the same thing won’t happen in 2026? It’s the Skynet man…
