We’re about to watch the party of “protect the children” downplay & dismiss CSA and pedos.

I need something stronger than coffee this morning.

People who are shocked or horrified that MAGA acolytes are continuing to defend their dear leader CLEARLY didn’t grow up with adults making excuses for rape-y youth pastors. It’s disappointing, but not the least bit surprising.

Early voting starts today, TN-7! Let’s flip this seat with someone who wants to feed our kids, fix our roads, and fund our hospitals: @aftynbehn.bsky.social.

This made me almost spit out my tea. 🤣🤣🤣

Love this energy!

“Well what if [Democrat/Progressive Name] is in the Epstein files?”
I’m sorry, is that meant to be a real question? Because it’s asked like there’s more than one answer.

You prosecute the ever-loving shit out of that person immediately, and publicly condemn them. It really is that simple.

😕

Being a sex therapist in a conservative family doesn’t make parent phone calls less painful, but it sure does make them more entertaining. 🤣

I will read the MLK Jr. files that got released yesterday just as soon as I finish reading the Epstein files.

Release them. #epstein #coverup #releasethefiles

Let’s get one thing real clear: there is NO 👏SUCH 👏THING 👏as “sex with trafficked children.” There is only rape and sexual abuse. No consent = abuse. #sexualassualt #childexploitation

(202) 224-3121 - US House Capitol Switchboard.

If you are reading this, you need to call and tell them to vote NO on HR 1!

Or it could mean that he doesn’t give two flying F’s about what his constituents actually think.

Both can be true. So glad he’s leaving. Our representatives are absolute disgraces.

Just got off the phone with the office of Congressional Rep. Mark Green (R-TN). He barely let me squeeze in my request that he vote “No” on the Budget Bill. Hopefully this means they are being FLOODED with calls. #voteno #callyourrepresentative #Tennessee #5CallsApp

@linzpatrickwright.bsky.social Just heard your episode on @citycastnash.bsky.social this morning & I am so grateful for you standing up for your kiddo in Wilson County. Please know you have 1 more supporter in Nashville. 🩷

No! The last time we tried “regime change” we ended up in a 20+ year un-winnable war, & broke a generation of veterans who are now unable to receive adequate healthcare due to cuts made to the VA. Stop trying to force regime changes overseas. Our service members and their families pay the price.

This. It may come as a shock to the cult, but most service members don’t like being treated like show ponies. 🎠

Waking up today in #Nashville feeling closer to thousands of my neighbors. Thank you for coming out yesterday. If nothing else, seeing thousands of folks come out to protest #NoKings makes me feel not so different from y’all.

This is Idaho! Amazing!!

Oh, and here I thought he was making fun of 🧊 with that song. 🤣

I’ve been waiting on this too!

Loving this mature queen energy!

You should be! It was so incredible to see! I left at 12:30 but it didn’t seem to be slowing down at all.

He walked right past me and I did a double take— because the protest was so overwhelmingly peaceful and joyful. He actually *did* stick out like a sore thumb.

@maddow.msnbc.com The Nashville #NoKings protest was truly incredible! It was well organized, peaceful and had the best energy of neighbors turning out to support their neighbors. @50501nashtn.bsky.social

Grateful he was removed from the protest, and that no harm came to anyone. It was an overwhelmingly beautiful event and 1 or 2 people with ill-intent weren’t going to stop us!

If you're a Marine or other service member being mobilized to Los Angeles and you'd like to apply for conscientious objector status, call the GI Rights Hotline to get some guidance on your options:

Andy Ogles wouldn’t recognize an insurrection if it landed on the steps on the United States Capitol!

Honestly, I blame the patriarchy. They are always trying to limit the number of bananas people can have. 🤣

No. It does not. Thank you for continuing to share and keep us informed.
