Until R's stop voting for R reps and senators, Trump will remain.

Defection has to be complete, and all the way down the ballot.

OMG yes.

I so miss his father.

The Supreme Court justices must be in the Epstein Files.

"We will rule in a way that keeps our Epstein behavior from becoming public."

The teaching profession is underfunded. Higher salaries for all who work in schools would keep teachers in the profession and encourage others to consider it.

Schools are understaffed.

I'm a teacher. I'm not sure about that. We fund a lot of ineffective programs that hurt kids more than help.

When grades don't matter, kids learn nothing. Dept of education is about finding SPED and civil rights violations.

Grades don't matter, so kids can't read.

We can't even hire more staff.

Yes these comments are helpful.

We need to read more MLK.

Those of us living in Trumpland know that it is true. Many Americans are really pleased with what is going on. This is who many of us are. They are Americans too.

My answer is to change our public education system. We are doing it wrong.

This IS who we are. This is who we are today. We are terrible to each other.

But we are also about staying in the game until we can make a little progress towards living out the true meaning of its creed.

Are elected Democrats and/or their aides not monitoring Bluesky?

We are their people.

Why are they not following instructions from us?

Why?

I really can't understand why MAGA can't see that every human is someone's baby. There is/was a mother out there who wants her child to be treated well by the rest of humanity.

Alex had a good mom. Those in detention have mothers who taught them to do anything to give their family a better life.

A bald eagle soars majestically against a blue sky with wispy white clouds. It holds scraps of nesting materials in its beak.

If the Bill of Rights is gone, and Congress is ignored... What does it matter if CA joins the WHO?

Where are the Benjamin Franklin memes? We couldn't keep it. 😫😭

If you read it with Audible, it feels like a slow boat ride through the wreckage. I love it read with a southern voice.

I loved Foote's narrative. It answers the question, "what were they thinking!?!?"

I loved it all, it's a good read. It turned me into a more compassionate anti-racist, and helped explain anti-collectivist culture and institutional racism. Don't ban this book series!

Battle Cry is also essential.

If you're a soldier in the 11th Airborne Division being ordered to prep for deployment to Minnesota or Greenland, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status.

The protests and marches should take place in red areas, not blue. If they want to change minds and get attention.

MAGA isn't seeing what you are seeing. Protests aren't happening in MAGA areas. I live in a red area and have never seen ICE or a protest except on Bluesky or MSNBC. Trump supporters aren't watching anything but Fox News, occasionally. MAGA is stronger than ever.

We are still in 2 info ecosystems.

Isn't this like saying "not all men" to an abused woman?

Yes, all evangelicals because you are a part of a group that HOLDS POWER.

Don't give up the teachings of Jesus. His words are true. Give up giving money to your church.

Please don't brag that you are different or one of the good ones.

I would add racism/elitism to your list. Because oppression is equally bad.

My dollar bet is on tribute.

When the Venezuelan oil companies give their oil rights to Trump, Maduro will be restored to Venezuela.

03.01.2026 13:10 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

If Maduro hands over the oil companies to Trump in tribute, he will be returned to power in Venezuela.

Just an early prediction. I will bet a dollar on that outcome.

Disciplining a teenager is highly ineffective. We still do it.

Cancer needs to be cut out, so we keep doing it until it's gone.

If we ever turn to politics as usual, I would love a political debate to determine which candidate has read, understands, and values the ideas in the Federalist Papers.

That was the whole point. Separation of powers and checks and balances. The founders believed a central government could choose tyranny. We ratified the Bill of Rights for a reason.

"A Republic if you can keep it."

Too many Americans did not study the founders or Germany's Nazi rise to power.

West Wing just arrived and Lost is leaving. If you are dedicated, you can watch both before cancelling Dec 31.

In rural America, if you want a doctor, you wait months, if they will take you. Sensible doctors are not to be found.

Watch Fox or go untreated.

Most waiting rooms play Fox because the waiting patients request it.
