We outnumber them a million to one. One day we’ll remember that.
We were promised to be taken care of in the next contract for our sacrifices for the American people. We got a 3 year contract with annual raises of 1.3%, 1.4%, and 1.5%.
They’re both ugly, the Muskmobile is worse though.
"The lunatics are running the asylum."
"She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it. She was not protecting lives at a gate in Iraq; she was forcing her way through windows in the Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power." New from @markhertling.bsky.social:
Mike Johnson dismisses the unpopularity of the Big Beautiful Bill: "The individual provisions of that giant piece of legislation are wildly popular." CNN host John Berman immediately debunks that claim.
Alberta Jones is worth a Google-her brutal murder has never be solved but I’d bet donuts to dollars the kkk was involved…

PPV Stoning is the most popular and most painful and from what I've heard the best ratings of all time. He'd appreciate that doncha think...but what do I know 🙆🏽♀️🙂
Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve on the Minnesota shooting: "The sad thing is we can't sit here and tell them that help is on the way. Because we're not going to do a damn thing about it."

Remember, Tolkien didn't start working on "The Hobbit" until he was 41 years old. It started as tales for his children that took over 4 years to complete, and he finally published it at the age of 45. It is never too late to start working on something that truly calls to you. Embrace your passion.
DAILY MEMO: ''A-Kidnapping We WILL Go:’ Agents Mock With Nearly 50 Kidnappings Since Friday" @eltragon.bsky.social
Utterly depraved.
A man, near the White House, who describes himself as a "retired disabled combat veteran," after burning an American flag tells bystanders "I am being detained because I expressed my First Amendment rights."
We have enough, tyvm.
Walz: "It boggles my damn mind that in the midst of a military takeover of our cities, the flaunting of the rule of law, that the press finds the need to talk about, 'Oh, there's a division in the Dem Party.' There's a division in my damn house & we're still married and things are good. That's life"
I agree with Frank ~ #FreedomFromReligion
Wait til they find out about FOO FIGHTERS.....
Worse Court in American history and it’s not close. They have enabled the dismantling of our democracy.
making my way through the ken burns JAZZ documentary and this portion of his interview with dave brubeck — who passed in 2012 — is a reminder of how *recent* american history really is. start at :55 or so. youtu.be/stadqAHRroA?...
His 2019 album “Sick Boi” is amazing as well. Music and message are both thought provoking.

BREAKING: Maryland Gov. Wes Moore just announced he refuses to authorize National Guard deployment in Maryland. 🧵
Sounder and Kraken fanbases are solid, Mariners fans are hardcore, but getting a little mental after decades of heartbreak and cheap ownership. I’m a diehard Husky fan, but the intensity with the Seahawks has switched since the 90’s. Seahawks won a SB & UW had some bad coaching hires. What Sonics🤬
Record rewritten. #TridentsUp

I must have missed all the Law and Order SVU episodes where they didn't interview the victims and just asked the criminals what happened.
🚨 Mayor Wu faces criminal charges because she is decent. We all know what ⏰ it is. Of course you are going after a female POC first. She is a “suspicious person” in 2025.
Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"
My interview with Alexandra Cascio at Union Station.
How? The state government doesn’t handle tax remittances except for state employees. Boeing, Walmart, and Joe’s Concrete & Masonry all send their employees federal deductions directly to the IRS.
Donald Trump says he is going to deploy the National Guard to Chicago. This is what weak men do to pretend they’re strong. Stay safe, stand with your community, and most importantly, know your rights:

Okay then Pudgy Rittenhouse…the point is when white right wingers get arrested, it’s usually softer.
Didn’t Dylan Roof get a soft arrest and a BK Whopper?
This is so important… Sharon has been tracking license plates on cars driven by ICE agents, and she’s finding they don’t match the vehicles. In other words, ICE is using secret, illegal tactics—just like we suspected. REMINDER: the DMV is not a federal agency. @governor.ca.gov 🧵
Justice Jackson is basically reporting live from inside a garbage fire www.ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/nih-c...
Nobody expects anything incriminating to Fascists to be released by the Fascists in charge.
Did they buy stock in a paint supplier or painting contractor?

BREAKING: We're filing a petition for the immediate release of Mario Guevara, a journalist who is being detained by ICE because of his reporting on law enforcement activity. The First Amendment is clear: Journalists cannot be detained for doing their jobs.
This is how simply 🦇 💩 crazy the rabbit hole this country has been dragged into is. Not only has Texas Rep Nicole Collier been locked in state house since Monday she needs to hide out in the bathroom to use her phone & when she does the PD comes in threatening to arrest her!
Collier was imprisoned for refusing unlawful surveillance. No warrant. No charges. No judicial oversight.Texas Constitution forbids executive control over legislators, but Republicans staged an abuse of power that will not stand under federal scrutiny. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory #WeveHadEnough
Oklahoma certainly, but we’ve kinda known that for awhile.
Masked men jumped a San Bernardino family in unmarked cars, opened fire, and shattered their truck windows—all while the family was just coming home from work. The feds later admitted it was CBP, but the family says the agents never showed warrants or IDs.
“Immigration enforcement” shouldn’t involve terrorizing families.
I’m too many generations removed. The Isle of Man won’t have me back.
Question for the lawyers: Is it legal to shout "I'M SORRY ABOUT WHATEVER WENT WRONG WITH YOUR PENIS" at the masked federal agents occupying our streets?
(Attenborough voice) “The North American goon is a fascinating creature. Here we see a pack defiling a watering hole, marking the territory with their sign — a dick.”
Let's enjoy a story time til we hear from Alaska. This story is about a big ugly old orange monster. The monster tries to blame King Barack for being in the evil wizard's spell book. Today would be a great day to drop the entire #EpsteinFiles #SheShed
Hegseth's pastor referred to women as “small-breasted biddies” and “lumberjack dykes.” He said: “The sexual act cannot be made into an egalitarian pleasuring party. A man penetrates, conquers, colonizes, plants. A woman receives, surrenders, accepts.” Utter contempt. dougwils.com/books-and-cu...
This is how the world should be.
Awe, those fat lazy bastards can't handle a hard day's work !!! #AmericanStrong 🤣🤣
My wife shared this with me and I’m tellin you… it’s worth the read.
Great song. The “B” side of that 45 was pretty great too “Hard to Handle”.
This is A+ trolling
Notice they don’t deny it. Corruption and grift at every turn. 🇺🇸
Jeanine Pirro: "I'm tired of hearing that crime is down."
But I was told by everyone on the right that the only person who could deploy the National Guard (or prevent the deployment of the National Guard) was Nancy Pelosi.
Bowser: "I think I speak for all Americans -- we don't believe it's legal to use the American military against American citizens on American soil."

No, none of them are accountable. That’s the problem. They need to be accountable, but they aren’t.
Crazy how the guy on the Epstein list is also the guy making sure you never see it.
Yeah JD, we remember. We will never forget your boss was best friends with the guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring. And then that guy was "silenced" forever. And now we will just not talk about anything else until they... #ReleaseThe_EPSTEIN_Files
Absolutely. The team got the support they knew (and we knew) that they needed and responded. Total belief in your organization is the first step to success.
Seattle Mariners pounce on pitcher who wore OKC Thunder jersey https://www.rawchili.com/nba/223577/ New Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Adrian Houser wasted no time in making himself a target in the Emerald…
You’re not wrong. The deadline moves made this team a legitimate contender, arguably the best team in baseball.

appropriate that the calvinists are now moving toward a vision of god as tyrannical leader of a cult of personality
Happy b’day, “American Idiot” — released as a single 21 years ago today, and written in the wake of the Iraq War. “The country had gone into a war based on lies,” said Billie Joe Armstrong, “and no one seemed to care. .. It was a song that came from a very honest, pissed-off place.”
I won’t save them…I like bourbon, but I like tequila too. Blue agave ftw 🙌
South Park omg 😂
Newsweek is no longer worthy of that name.
Isn’t the IDF brutal enough? Why do they need to hire mercs?
#ProudBlue PBS not only provides neutral news (with interview shows for both GOP & Dem, both truthful) but also brilliant shows about our country that I am proud to read.
🤔
There is no bottom
a sarcastic Bernie Sanders: "Why not? When you get bad news, fire the guy who delivered the news. I think that's sensible policy."
“Trump’s name is in the Epstein Files but Kash Patel had FBI agents go through them and black out his name” is the kind of statement that will surely put out this fire
Rep. Bryan Steil (R-WI) —dragged at his own town hall. He should have known when it kicked off w/constituents reciting the Pledge of Allegiance w/extra emphasis on “justice for all.” Then came the truth: “I don’t think you’re the right fit for us anymore.” Even telling him it’s time to step down.
ICE GOON forcefully grab activists filming outside the immigration court and forcefully knock her phone out of her hand.
Hard worker, constantly improving every aspect of his game. Reluctantly embraced his nickname. He replaced my children as my phone’s wallpaper in May and I hope the good mojo of that lasts well into October.

This time they're punching the dicks
The #Mariners got a surprise before their flight home last night: Eugenio Suárez hopped on the team plane. "All of a sudden it got a little bit loud," M's insider @shannondrayer.bsky.social said. "Geno got on the plane and you could hear the cheering." sports.mynorthwest.com/mlb/seattle-...
