“oligargle deez nuts”
I LOVE THIS SONG
me when I lie:
every single elected Democrat should be calling for Hegseth’s resignation right now.
The Atlantic article…
if you’ve been asking “where are the next-gen leaders?”
if you’ve been craving someone who actually gets it — who’s sharp, grounded, and ready to fight —
you should check out @katmabu.bsky.social’s campaign.
she’s here. and she’s ready. t.co/UE6sk3A2K1
we need to fight. we need change.
& no one’s coming to save us but us
we deserve better. what we have isn’t working — or at least, it’s not enough
this is what it can look like
if that energizes you, get involved
@katmabu.bsky.social is one of many — but she’s showing the way
what Kat brings — & what many say we need — is a shift in tone + energy
she’s not running scared of elon, trump, or the growing wave of authoritarianism
she’s ready to FIGHT. not just to hold the line — to move it forward
in urgency, language, tone, and strategy. she gets it
it’s boldly transparent.
No corporate money. No performative politics
Kat won’t compromise her values — not on the trans community, not to the system
she doesn’t just support term limits — she pledged to serve no more than 5.
THAT’s values and accountability.
also it’s not just about being young for the sake of being young — it’s about being ready
yes we need new generations of leadership, but gen-z needs candidates & leaders who exemplify its values + meet the current moment
Kat does just that and it’s laid out clearly + thoroughly
Kat does make it clear whose side she’s NOT on
while official endorsements aren’t posted yet, she includes a page of ANTI-endorsements
Elon, Tucker, Libs of TikTok — if they’re mad, she’s doing something right
& here’s the thing: Kat isn’t running against someone — she’s running for something.
FOR affordable housing, for healthcare access, for climate, for labor rights, for a political future that actually makes room for her generation
Kat is 26
the current congresswoman in IL-09 was elected the year she was born
that’s not a dunk — it’s a timeline. that the campaign website quite literally visualizes
as many are saying rn and Kat says herself: the world has changed. our leadership should too
as dems keep losing the culture war, it seems worth noting that Kat gave her exclusive on her launch to Rolling Stone, not Politico or Axios
it’s a signal, and it matters
she knows where people are, how they listen, and what actually breaks through in 2025
bsky.app/profile/roll...
she’s been on the frontlines of political media — talking policy, calling out disinfo, how the right weaponizes attention, + how to cut through it.
we don’t need to train her to effectively communicate or sound like a human — she’s already doing it, on the platforms that matter.
the whole vibe is honest and relatable and real.
she’s not trying to cosplay a politician — she’s just showing up as herself.
we keep saying we want more ~authentic~ leaders who say what they mean and mean what they say.
& that’s her pitch.
her website katforillinois.com is clean, accessible, direct, and reads like it was written by someone who’s actually talked to voters before
none of the consultant-speak — just a clear throughline of who she is: a daughter of immigrants, union member, media watchdog, human.
like her candidacy, this isn’t politics as usual — and isn’t that exactly what people are craving right now?
we don’t need more of the same.
it’s clear Kat’s running a campaign that breaks from the old playbook and actually fits the urgency of this moment.
ok but this campaign launch from @katmabu.bsky.social ?!
THIS is how you announce you’re running for office in 2025.
refreshingly honest, clear-eyed, deeply values-driven — and actually exciting in a way politics rarely is anymore.
(unsurprisingly) so, so good.

do people on bluesky understand this image?
my sign + the only orange monster allowed in Philly 🗣️🪧🦅🇺🇸
a very Philly welcome (a lot of yelling and middle fingers) to an out of town felon visiting yesterday
we let him know we aren’t a country of kings, we didn’t elect his billionaire friends and there’s only room for one orange monster in this city — 🖕🍊, GO BIRDS!
At a time when this cruel, hateful, & deeply dangerous administration is deciding who deserves dignity, respect, & a real chance here, I refuse to accept their vision and will keep fighting for a country that welcomes — not one that shuts its doors ♥️🧑🧑🧒🇺🇸
The life, community, career, & future I have today is bc my parents believed in more than borders—they believed in family, opportunity, & the power of love
That’s why I’ll always fight for those seeking safety, belonging, & a better life—no matter where they’re from
Today is my “Gotcha Day”
28 yrs ago, my parents brought me home from China, & my life as their daughter—and as an American—began
My story, like many others, is a reminder that being American isn’t where you’re born but the life you build, love you share, & values you uphold
if yall want some semblance of entertainment during tonight’s (likely insane) Joint Address🙃 …
if you see this post please like it — trying to see something.
