Sarah Kendzior speaks truth to power.If Bluesky can’t handle that, it’s not the open forum it claims to be. Silencing independent journalists is cowardly and dangerous to democracy.Censorship of critical voices isn’t a show of strength it’s a confession of fear. We need more accountability, not less

Head trauma presupposes a healthy head to begin with, doesn't it? Not sure that is there. He needs sunlight and a nice sit-down with some trees.

Stephen Miller is a demented idiot and a danger to us all. Can't wait until he is the defendant in the dock for treason, insurrection, and crimes against humanity.

It was the plan developed by Republicans to counter Medicare for all, an even more sensible plan. When the right-leaning Obama administration adopted it instead, the Rs said no, no, no because it was Obama, not because it was their own plan they were repudiating.

The Dems had control of everything several times and didn't even increase the minimum wage. When they did address health care, they enacted the Republican plan (Obamacare).

I moved to Washington DC in 1979 and your post echoes what every corporate Dem has said at least since Ronald Reagan. Keeping the democracy safe for the autocrats is all it's been while allowing corporate media to hoodwink the populace to keep electing people who oppress the working class.

We're not seeing it in Washington DC. Outrageous. Like in the old days when affiliates wouldn't air mixed race programs.

You can ask the same question as to why they're destroying the labor force by kidnapping workers and sending them elsewhere. It's insanity

Totally agree although you can hardly call it "governing".

Who is more demented: DonOld Trump or Peter Navarro? Their rants are similarly devoid of logic or reality.

Still largely the case. Bezos worth hundreds of billions on the backs of workers who barely get by even with Federal food benefits and Medicaid. Where are the workers in that, or consumers rights? It's not even capitalism; it's a system based on massive fraud.

That sounded like so much fun. Couldn't make it myself. ❤️ Glad you represented. 😍

Not everyone has a home freezer. Lots don't. Canned fruit and vegetables are a much older and respected way of preserving food. Greed took it down just when we're going to need to have long-term preserved food on our shelves. Buckle up!

Oh, the cat gets it. The cat is just bemused that you think that something should follow from that! 😻😂😆🤪

I know she's a hero for adhering to rules, but why should that be considered heroic. It's only heroic because MAGA senators don't follow the rules.

Looking more and more that a bill before the 4th of July was never more than wishful thinking.

Trump, as always, only ever had the concept of a bill. Not a bill.

He knows just how to play DonOld. All the phrases on strength came straight from that fascist madman.
