Gotta meet those quotas. So wrong.
Thank you
So jealous
they did, they worked. Will never understand why people keep voting the way they do. Absolutely heartbreaking.
Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
Gross.
Desperate to make their quotas.
Where are any leaders?
Today is the 7th anniversary of my mother’s death. I miss her.
very nice. But in all seriousness, we know he's in the files. If they release them and confirm it, then what? Will the Rs in congress do anything about it? I fear not.
so so gross.
When you strip away humanity
Yep. It is no surprise his name is in the documents and do his supporters care if it is? They voted for him knowing all this.
They will. They always do.
So gross.
well, putting on a show is what they seem to value above all.

of course it will.
Everything is transactional or a show with him.
absolutely horrifying: "Minnesota state senator John Hoffman in Champlin and Minnesota state representative Melissa Hortman in Brooklyn Park were reportedly shot in their homes by a gunman impersonating a police officer."

@envato.bsky.social When is your site going to be back up? It's been down all morning and I need to download something today.
They don't care. It's more of an issue that they won't admit they were wrong, no matter what. Saving face is more important than a person's life. Very sad.
He is lovely
She is in charge so you must do as she says.
If you aren’t watching #therighteousgemstones why not?
Don't let America's last words be "We didn't think it could happen here"
here is the story. Says she did know the preferred name wasn't approved and used it anyway. Doesn't say how the parents found out but they did and notified the school. www.clickorlando.com/news/local/2...
Right? My husband is quite pleased when he stumps them.
Yes. Have a lovely day, I am off to get candy for my kids' Easter baskets. And by kids, I mean my 20-something kids and my son-in-law. And yes, we still hide them too. Being a parent is a joy and this is one part of the fun.

It's "parental rights" as long as it aligns with them.
I have only seen positive results when the family is accepting and supportive. The results you are listing are what happens when they are not. I hope they see that before it's too late. Sadly, I don't have much hope in my state where there is such propaganda being promoted at high levels.
I believe you. They just aren't willing to learn/understand it. So harmful. And the whole family will suffer for it. As a parent, I can't imagine risking my child's well-being like that.
The idealist in me wants to believe the parents are doing what they believe is best for their child; the realist in me envisions precisely that, leading to an irrevocably damaged relationship. Can't imagine not supporting my child. I can only hope they see the support from others.
Parental rights. 😞
😢
Exactly. So very sad.
The parents of the child did. 😢
Such a sad story.
The parents of that child. So sad.
yes, which I did. But it's not cheap so many won't be able to do that.
Imagine being a billionaire, more $$$ than you could ever need or spend…you could work on things like world hunger, cancer or Alzheimer's research, education…but instead you join in to destroy a democracy, hurting many people in the process, in order to make more money for yourself. What a legacy.
At this rate MAGA will only be able to afford to rent the libs.
yep...and the media who reported the lies they believed. And still believe.
Not one man at all. The Republican party is to blame. They had the chance to do the right thing...they still do but won't.
Yes, this is on them. Everything.
Because his base loves it.
we need project woke 2029 to save america
And then he will toss them away when he’s done with them.
They could stop this at any time. They have the power but soon won’t.
I live in Florida. They not only don’t care, they will help him.
there is a reason bsky.app/profile/chri...
because it is. It is exactly what they wanted to happen.
All so a few rich men can be richer.
Destroying lives....ruining a country…all so a few ultra rich men can be richer.
So much political discourse right now in the US is boiling down to "I didn't believe the bleeding person who told me the wolf at the door was dangerous to me. Because I thought the wolves only hunted them." And I don't know what people think can happen as long as that is still the conversation.
Yes they do. They know exactly what they are doing. Wishing the Rs would realize and do something to stop it. But it will be too late when they do.
I myself have been enjoying all the penguins.
they are starting to realize they will have no power to do anything soon.
this is why this is happening.
This....this is what is happening...it's not about the stock market or economy....it's POWER. The plan is to take over everything and the people get no say.
good....the Rs in congress need to realize they will lose all their power if they don't act.
I get it.
doesn't matter...they will take these losses knowing that that they will make even more later.
yep....media is just dumbstruck by the stupidity of it all, when in reality, this is what they wanted to happen.
exactly....everyone wondering why he would do this and not understanding....there is a reason and what is happening is the plan.
only good thing today are all the penguins on my feeds.
there is a reason. this is what they want to happen.
yep...all on purpose too.
It makes sense. it is what they want to happen. Check out @chrismurphyct.bsky.social and see what he says. They want this. Media needs to report why they are doing this.
it's all the plan...what is happening is what they want to happen....it's on purpose. Check @chrismurphyct.bsky.social or @hcrichardson.bsky.social
When is the media going to report what is really happening? When will the Rs in congress realize they will no longer have power to do anything before it's too late?
It's all on purpose. The media needs to report on why it's being done. Check with Chris Murphy, Heather Cox Richardson.
It’s the plan. All on purpose.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.
Florida, you break my heart.
📚💙 #booksky
because they don't care about any of that. Project 2025 is in full swing...that is their focus.
Thank you for sharing. His voice is still so fabulous.
They are not running it. They are breaking it. That is the plan and it's happening. And the people who voted for it are cheering them on, completely oblivious to what is actually happening.

When I got a PhD in nineteenth-century political history, I really, truly never imagined I would have to find a way to explain to readers what an eggplant emoji means. (Wired reported more Signalgate Venmo accounts.) I yearn for the day when I can write about good, clean fun like tax policy again.
She needs belly rubs.
She’s not allowed to. Pretty simple. She would be fired.
Sadly from FL so know how my senators voted...but glad to have @maxwellfrost.bsky.social who I know will vote against this.
— someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal."—John F. Kennedy
If by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people — their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties
Always funny to see someone supporting the dismantling of DOE that uses you’re instead of your.
Nope. No one brave enough.
