We are very far off the cliff here folks. 🇺🇸
As a Dem living in Arkansas, I really hate this take. Arkansas is a “Red” state, right? Wrong. At best, only 65% of registered voters here actually vote in a presidential election year (50% in the odd years). If voting were easy and accessible, this would be over in a heartbeat.
Then stop using the word “deport” and start using the word “traffic”. Accuracy matters.
They gaslit you all throughout the election.
“I was r*ped sometimes 3 times a day on that island… and I was not the only girl on that island… Ghislaine must die in prison, because I’ve been in hell and back for the last 17 years.” Listen to the survivors.
“Trump’s ability to trigger racist impulses of millions of Republicans and rally white nationalists takes…no special political skill. Rather, it’s a reminder of how deep these impulses go in the national psyche & how easily a racist demagogue can incite them.” www.americaamerica.news/p/the-trump-...
Ithaca Falls today. Each waterfall in the area is more beautiful than the next. Goodness. #Exploring #NewYork
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it frighteningly surreal that the terrible atrocities, injustices and war crimes of faraway lands that we studied in history books when we were kids are now being committed, promoted and even celebrated by our own U.S. government, on a daily basis?
Can I Get A “Hell Yeah?” 😉😉😉
#ProudBlue Stephen Miller can fuck all of the way off. Stephen Miller says DC is like Baghdad or Fallujah. The only war here is the GOP’s war on truth. Their plan to intimidate Americans isn’t working. We see through their bullshit.
Arkansas is one of the most gerrymandered states. 35-40% of us vote blue or independent, but 82% of our legislature is Republican. TLDR: they cheat to keep power.
Hi. Arkansas here. And screw you. We are working hard to get Hallie Shoffner elected in Tom Cotton’s place. The concept of “red and blue states” is completely made up for political gain. Every state is purple. Every single one.
Welcome, friend.
“This is like two teams coming out of the locker room at halftime and the team that’s ahead saying they want to change the rules in the second half to make sure they win. If they’re gonna cheat, we’re not gonna play.” — Texas State Rep. James Talarico @jamestalarico.bsky.social
When I talk to Trump supporters, the ones who are able to converse in complete sentences (not the mouth-breathing MAGA types), there are a few common themes of note: - They don’t deny what Trump is doing is often unconstitutional and extreme. 🧵(1/8)
When I say don’t mess with Texas women, I’m talking about State Rep. Jolanda Jones.
still thinking about the Montana knife maker who said you don't have to worry about tariffs if you buy american. and then three months later, he realized he imports swedish steel and german equipment. and even MiUSA equipment costs $100k more now because of tariffs
zohran keeps proving that you don’t need to be afraid of far right framing
Republicans realize that if they were to even allude to Jesus, his life and teachings would swiftly become the loudest and most powerful public rebuke of their vile movement, that his words would come and violently flip their very tables. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/republican...
George Retes did everything right. And still suffered. This will happen more & more because it was never about law & order. It was always about enacting autocracy & advancing white supremacy. Now MAGAs have concentration camps they need to fill. U.S. Citizens are not exempt from Trump’s raids.
That asshole ordered that a MILLION POUNDS of food be destroyed, rather than disturbed to people in need. A MILLION POUNDS! Do not EVER let his minions claim they are Christians.
Chief Justice Roberts, my friends are bitterly divided about you. Half of them, I hate to say, say you're a partisan hack who churned out rulings that will benefit the GOP but destroy the lives of so many regular Americans. The other half, however, just thinks you're a sociopath. Who's right?
Got damn
Some positive news worth publicizing more: As ICE fascists target asylum seekers at immigration hearings, more than 200 US veterans have volunteered to stand beside and protect Afghan allies at their hearings This is what it looks like to honor your oath to uphold the US Constitution❤️✊🏽 #Courage2025
I’m pretty sure this was the goal of our Governor in Arkansas (Sarah Huckabee Sanders). Our Republican state legislature blocked her due to the cost ($825 Million for 300 beds) When your Nazi Governor is foiled by Olde Tyme fiscally responsible Republicans, you have to give a little smirk 😃
I have long accepted my atheism. But damn, I wish there was a Hell.
Imagine this is you. You’re locked in a cell thousands of miles from home. No one knows where you are. No charges. No trial. No end in sight.
As an Arkansan in the third district, I both apologize for Womack and encourage everyone to look at the shape of his district. He has the most gerrymandered district in our state.
Call me crazy, but my idea of making America great involves a lot fewer kidnappings and concentration camps.
The most sobering part about becoming 1930’s Germany is realizing that no one is going to come here and liberate those being brutalized. If this historically inhumane regime is going to be overthrown, We The American People are going to have to do it.
This is a really bad time to be a person who understands history well… Everything may not look exactly the same, but it rhymes.
A radical Christian just murdered the speaker of a state house but the real worry is the theocratic muslim who said the bus should be cheaper
The left better start figuring out how to weaponize today's decision rather than just (rightfully) criticizing it. - Go back into Judge Kaczmaryk's court to dissolve all of his nationwide orders. - Pass gun bans and insist any order applies only to plaintiffs.

Fayetteville, Arkansas has entered the chat.
To be antisemitic is to hate Jewish people all over the world, simply for being Jewish. Dissing the government of Israel, and all they’ve done to Palestinians, is not that. The difference is that if Israel had a compassionate leader, it would cease to be a threat. It’s politics; not people.
I’m convinced that this is why Sarah Huckabee Sanders is pushing a new 300 bed prison in Arkansas. It’s not because we need it, it’s because they want more legalized slave labor 😡
Arkansan here. We’re going to do everything we can to send Steve Womack packing (the Speaker Pro Tempore). He’s an awful human being and always has been.
Ok, but toilet paper isn’t imported. They’re creating an unnecessary scarcity for others. Go buy some new shoes instead. Those are almost all imported.
You’re missing the point. None of these people were convicted of anything. That’s what due process was for and that was the step that was missed.
You lost me as soon as you said, “The Federal Government needs to…” Whatever came after that clearly isn’t going to happen 😔
Realizing how addicted I am to Social Media. Getting through an entire day without scrolling on any is proving to be difficult. Trying to not open FB at all. Zero success. Too much local connectivity there. Bluesky has no privacy settings or groups; FB’s advantage, imo. 😔
Why is a man who used a gun to kill a person a cold blooded murderer, but a man who used a pen to kill a person (possibly a lot of people) is not? The thing that makes the second man’s actions even more egregious than the first is he profited off of each death he caused.
