Birthright Citizenship

1/ If Justice Barrett thinks we need to go back to what the Founding Fathers intended, I’ve got news for her. Their biggest concern was avoiding tyranny. So they created 3 branches of gov’t & divvied up the power the people (that’s us) were allowing the gov’t to use to create order for all of us.

Facts do not change.

An utter disgrace

Oops. 🤷🏼‍♂️

GOP 2021: “The debt is out of control!

GOP 2022: “the debt is out of control!”

GOP 2023: “the debt is out of control

GOP 2024: “the debt is out of control!”

GOP 2025: ”let’s raise the debt ceiling $5 trillion!”

We were just suspended without warning from threads and Instagram. We have no idea why.

If any of y’all are on those apps and want to let them know to fix that we would be appreciative.

I’ll vote for a Socialist anytime over these greedy, power hungry creeps!!!

This sentence, typed in her dissent, should scare the living fuck out of everyone in this country.

"This Supreme Court is an existential threat to the rule of law."

We are still not pushing back enough on the term “vaccine skepticism.” A “skeptic” would ask why I want to cause them momentary pain if they’re healthy, and when I say the alternative is 90 days on a ventilator or dying a slow; agonizing death they agree. Everyone else is antivaccine and antiscience

Phang: Immediately after being appointed… Habba said, quote: “We could turn New Jersey red, and I think New Jersey is absolutely close to getting there. So hopefully, while I’m there, I can help that cause.”

Doesn’t sound like somebody who is trying to be, I don’t know, a fair arbiter of the law—

We’ve talked about “Alligator Alcatraz” before. Here are more details.

Starting the first week of July, when South Florida’s heat index regularly hits 100°F, they plan to detain up to 5,000 people in tents. No A/C. No real shelter. Just suffocating heat, choking humidity, and swarms of mosquitoes.

A long and -- at times -- brutal week. But we continue to fight for democracy with hope and determination. Thank you to everyone who has offered kind words of support on this journey. More soon. Goodnight.😴

I just did the math, and yes, this checks out.

I sure as hell have noticed. How about you? 🤨

Why yes, yes I do.

We are deeply saddened at @fsfp.bsky.social by the news of Bill Moyers's passing. He was an extraordinary human being, a true champion and hero for our democracy. And he was a special friend to us. We are thinking of his family during this difficult time. Our tribute to Bill is linked below.

Compared to the GOP regime, the Taliban is liberal.

President Biden paid his respects to Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark as they lie in state at the Minnesota Capitol.

Meanwhile, the entity in the White House played golf.

Thank you, sir, for honoring our fallen Dems and continuing to show your character and decency at every turn.

Bondi just said DHS is helping rid us of criminals from the Sinaloa Cartel, but she failed to mention the asylum she gave to family members of the Sinaloa Cartel. She also said we're ridding the country of MS-13, but failed to mention the asylum she's giving to MS-13 leaders in the Abrego case.

Profile in Cowardice: Jeff Bezos You would think one of the world’s richest men would be willing to fight back. You’d be wrong.

Jeff Bezos cozied up to a wannabe dictator in the White House, gave him bags of money, and lended a veneer of legitimacy to his authoritarian project.


Cowardice is how he chose to meet the Trump moment.
