Congratulations to Mayor-elect Sheffield!
Detroit has oddly been off the Trump administration's radar of blue cities to attack. I've long thought it was because they had a white man as mayor.
I suspect their awfully racist radar will re-calibrated shortly.

Donald Trump’s Deep-State Wrecking Ball Russell Vought is using the White House budget office to lay waste to the federal bureaucracy—firing workers, decimating agencies, and testing the rule of law.

🚨NEW: After we revealed Russ Vought's "put them in trauma" video, I spent the next year reporting on him, his influence, and his vision for America.

Yes, I got *new* recordings & videos of Vought.

Here is the story.

There should be a specific word for the special sense of relief and freedom when a meeting is cancelled

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

Thrilled to see growing consensus that Dems must step up in the Continuing Resolution fight. Key to doing so? Refuse to frame this as "shutting down government." Instead, call it what it is - refusing to be an accomplice to turning the government into a weapon against the American people.

that summit could've been an email

Putin looking afraid of Obama as they shake hands.

Trump looking like an oaf shaking Putin's hand; Putin with an evil grin.

I bet he'd hate if this side-by-side went viral.

So the megalomaniac rich dude who used his fortune to buy a major newspaper wants to make his untalented second wife a star?

I wonder if he's also missing a beloved childhood toy. A sled, maybe?

🤣🤣🤣
I can't stop laughing at this.

Grok on the economy Biden left Trump… keep it handy for a rainy day… 👇🏽

A huge Thank You 🙏 to all who showed up, made signs, brought water & snacks to share, looked after loved ones so others could attend & so much more.

The pics & captions from these wonderful Hands Off protest across the entire country has seriously lifted the spirits of this emotionally weary & battered ex-pat in Brisbane, Australia! 🗽

Thought you would appreciate this @willozap.bsky.social 😊

Excellent list! 👍 I humbly propose adding Richard Hofstadter (Paranoid Style in American Politics, etc.).

One of the first shows I started watching on my own as a young teen 🙂.

Jerry Maguire is one of the most over-rated movies in cinema history. It fails as a rom-com, a sports movie or a redemption story.

That was a call out worthy of my first activity on Bluesky, Laura 🙂🦁. Cheering all the way from Brisbane, Australia! 🦘
