It’s past time Dems showed their spine

Ashley Babbit dishonored her service by committing insurrection against her country. While her death is absolutely tragic and I wish it hadn’t happened, the Air Force giving her honors is in itself a dishonor.

From now on, all job numbers will come from the guy who claims he’s 6’3” and weighs 215 lbs.

When the people you are protesting against show up, go home. This is how we win.

Trump Means to Provoke, Not Pacify Don’t give him the pretext he wants.

“Be warned: Trump is expecting resistance. You will not be heroes. You will be the pretext,” writes @radiofreetom.bsky.social:

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary.

I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

Elon Musk has committed a blatant felony by offering money for votes in order to help Brad Schimel. This is a chainsaw attack on democracy and the rule of law. Musk should be brought to justice immediately. 🧵

All right, fine.

The second Trump administration as villains from the Batman TV show.

That is the job of CONGRESS.
Not some foreign born private citizen jumping bean exploding penis rocket car melting nepo-baby conspiracy theorist womanizer who exchanges horses for handjobs.

Congress needs to stand the fuck up. All of them!!!

We are all going to die.
