Facts. š
Itās so absurd.
In all the spin, letās not forget Trump bombed Iran for restarting its nuclear program after he, in his first term despite all warnings, withdrew the US from the nuclear accord with Iran. All of this couldāve been avoided. The man is a colossal idiot, and thatās being generous.
When you realize the new Pope is actually one of your favorite people youāve met several times and just knew as āFather Bobā. š¤Æ
So according to the FOX poll, the President with the worst approval rating at the 100 day mark is Trump and Trump. Bahahahaha!
US- born Massachusetts attorney asked by DHS to self-deport. www.wcvb.com/article/nico...
LOL. Whitmer said she was there to meet with Trump and didnāt know she was walking into a press event. (PSA: you have the option to leave. If Trumpās team invites you to do something, assume they have an agenda. š¤¦āāļø)
Breaking: According to CNN, Trump authorizes a 90 day pause on the new āreciprocalā tariffs, except for China. (Dude is simply trying to manipulate the market).
Same, Brussels, same.
Pretty much sums it up. š¤¦āāļø
Well, we are headed for a global recession. In the dumbest of boneheaded moves, the idiot will actually go down in history as the dumbest bonehead. š¤¦āāļø
European leaders need to step in and insure Ukraine has massive support from every other world leader. Call Trumpās bluff and diminish his perceived power. Itās time to reveal the Emperor has no clothes.
When did inclusion become a threat? Regardless of what this administration wants everyone to think, DEI is not about hiring unqualified individuals. So the real question we should be asking is why are some so threatened by the idea of equitable opportunity for ALL qualified individuals? š¤
Gaetz was my first guess, but I donāt see Johnson trying to protect him.

So Johnson doesnāt want Republicans embarrassed by the release of sexually explicit texts sent to Cassidy Hutchinson. Two thoughts: 1. Why wasnāt Hutchinson given a pardon to avoid continued unmerited harassment? 2. If any lawmaker subjected her to sexual harassment, those texts should be released.
An aide to Mike Johnson advised Republicans against subpoenaing Cassidy Hutchinson as part of their investigation into the Jan. 6 to prevent the release of sexually explicit texts that lawmakers sent her. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski is a āNoā on Pete Hegseth.

An alternative @theonion.com headline āChristian-conservatives Protest Jesusā āWokeā Agenda of Showing Mercy After National Prayer Serviceā works just as well here. š¤¦āāļø thehill.com/homenews/adm...
MAGA having a meltdown about a Bishop simply appealing for mercy at a National prayer service is a classic self-own. Kudos to the Bishop for gracefully challenging & exposing the hypocrisy of those who claim moral superiority as a basis for their political agenda.

Wow. Those claiming this isnāt a Nazi salute are either in denial or deliberately lying.

In case you were wondering why Zuck really decided to nix fact-checking. Trump doesnāt want his minions getting the truth. š

I love her. š Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum responds to Trump on his proposal to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico. She points to a 17th century map of greater MĆ©xico. āWe are going to call it AmĆ©rica Mexicana. It sounds pretty, no?ā
The only consolation today is that Iām 100% certain no amount of white-washing will change the fact that history will accurately portray what Trump & his enablers did on Jan. 6th with disdain. He may have been re-elected, but he & his congressional cronies destroyed their legacies in the process.
A federal appeals court panel has upheld the jury's verdict finding Trump liable for sexually abusing E. Jean Carroll and ordering him to pay $5 million.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas. May your holidays be filled with peace, love and joy surrounded by those you cherish.
Wow! Trump is really not going to like this. š

Truly underrated!
It will always be a favorite of mine!
That is beautiful!!!
We used to do a Friday night music share in the early days of Twitter. Share a great song (doesnāt have to be Christmasy). This is one of my favorites. Crying by KD Lang & Roy Orbison. youtu.be/-8Q9xK1My6k?...
When did Leonard Cohenās Hallelujah become a Christmas song? I love the song, but itās about sex, love, despair, and spirituality. Somewhat of an odd choice for Christmas. Hereās a good breakdown of the lyrics. www.rollingstone.com/feature/how-...

Itās a mercury based antiseptic that was used a lot on cuts and scrapes. It got banned due to mercury poisoning risk.

CNNās Harry Enten: āVoters think pardons for Jan 6 protesters is a āterrible, terrible, terribleā idea. Most (64%) are opposed. Just 1% want Trump prioritizing these pardons. Few (33%) think the Jan 6 protesters were demonstrating patriotism. A majority think it was an insurrection (53%).ā

Thank you!
Many reports today that Ron DeSantis is scheduled to attend the Army-Navy with Trump on Dec. 14th. Pete Hegseth,
Please do write a book. I donāt care what other great qualities a leader has, if they donāt have a high degree of integrity they will fail.
It is just so disheartening. As someone who prioritizes it above all else, Iām floored so many think it is something that can be disregarded.
"The supreme quality for leadership is unquestionable integrity." āDwight D. Eisenhower How did we get to the point where integrity as a leadership quality is marginalized?
So painful. I would sleep on my stomach with my head at a weird angle so I could breathe, but the curler wouldnāt indent into my face. š¤£
Your feed is a breath of fresh air and brings a smile to my face. Much needed after the toxicity of the other place. Thank you!
Loving Bluesky so far. Hoping it remains a kinder alternative to that other place, at least for a while. I welcome different opinions & respectful discourse, but having learned from the other place, Iām adopting a zero-tolerance policy to trolls. Top 10 Reasons You Will Likely Be Blockedā¦
@mj27.bsky.social nice to meet you. is that a Brittany in your profile pic? It looks like our dog we had for 15 years. Best dog ever! Also, I worked for the White Sox for over a decade and now live in CO. Great to connect with another fan in CO!

The personal vetting makes a huge difference.
Pure laziness. People āfollow allā from lists without vetting. Lists are a great tool if you also vet. But bad actors are creating follow/block lists that purport to be blue accounts, but are really MAGA accounts pretending to be blue. So they get people to follow MAGA accounts and block š ones.
Welcome!
Nice to meet you!
Keep it going.

Welcome!
Oh look, it appears an alien invasion is expected today. Sorry to miss, but I have a hair appointment. But if they say ātake me to your leaderā, remember to tell them itās the evil orange one set on destroying the world and give directions to Mar-a-Lago. Thanks! www.dexerto.com/youtube/did-...
Great list! Followed all. Iām interested.
Block lists are set up by private users who manage them, and may misuse their lists to express personal aversions to other users by simply adding them to their lists. I recommend avoiding block lists, and always making the decision to block manually yourself.
