The life and death of Charlie Kirk and the response to it is the fastest case study of the difference between history and memory that I have ever seen develop.

@ryanburge.bsky.social reports NO change in LDS/Mormon vote, 2020-2024

This is meaningful bc the non-LDS vote moved +6 R (LDS +6 D vs. USA chg.)

"The conclusion...is unmistakable-the LDS electorate is not so strongly tied with the Republican party now."

Trans Man Detained After Using Women’s Restroom in South Carolina Anti-trans lawmakers want to force trans men to use the women's restroom. Here’s what happened when one did.

1. A transgender man was detained in South Carolina for using the restroom that Republicans want him to use.

Officers allegedly hurled slurs at him for doing so.

This doesn’t happen by chance. (Or lucky demographics)

It happens because people work everyday to make it happen. Support those people.

Guys you’re thinking about this all wrong. If you wanna save $$$ it’s pretty cheap to just ☠️ all the prisoners too, let’s just go that route and save a couple bucks? Maybe hunger games style so we get some entertainment out of it? Oh crap but then who would make Dan’s license plates

Being a millennial in 2025 is just constantly confusing Jay Shetty and Raj Chetty on podcasts. Which one does all the stuff on happiness? Oh, both?

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

Good morning.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.

It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Trade deficit. I have bought food from say, Chilis. They have never bought food from me.

There is a trade deficit with Chilis. I’m still doing fine.

The trade deficit argument SOUNDS compelling, but it’s a straw man with no relevancy

Hey, remember Vivek? What happened to that guy?

(Also, just perfect encapsulation of how bad they are at this, because that dude would’ve been the perfect fall guy when this all goes belly up.)

Schumer and every other democratic senator over 70 should probably resign in the next year.

Fox News was just praising an Idaho bill that would mandate cursive proficiency by 5th grade because they believed in a β€œconspiracy theory” that democrats don’t want people to read cursive because they don’t want people to be able to read the constitution. Dead serious.🧐

Is there some sort of economics term for the fact that I exclusively order Taco Bell through the app just to save myself from having to say β€œno” to β€œwould you like to add sour cream” to everything?

I met with somebody yesterday, whose brother is working for USAID in Ukraine helping get cash transfers to grain farmers. He said if they don’t get the money to buy the seed to put wheat into the ground in the next five weeks, there is no harvest in the fall. And likely no food to fight a war.

Honestly, a little disappointed in all of us that we didn’t predict that the real estate charlatan would be trying to buy countries and turn them into resort towns

Four examples of Democratic messaging since yesterday. I know which one I'm supporting. And voting for.

It is so wild to me that people are still earnestly using the term β€œholding space” in a genuinely professional setting.

Alternative: pardons are a red herring and we can ignore it because there are no real consequences. It’s a deliberate distraction from actual policy fights that will matter to people

Went to the auto show last year and was struck had how much taller the Super Duty was than my 90th percentile 7 year old. Ago got tired of me telling her to stand next to all the pickups.

Oh, and also, unequivocally: trans women are women. Stop making it a talking point. If anybody finds a single voter who decided how to vote based on that question, please direct them my way because I have some beachfront property here in Utah I’d like to sell em.

Stop posting and do the work.

Just popping in to say that LDS_Dems (on the other app), does not represent the views of the LDS Democrats caucus (or @lds4harris.bsky.social)

Don’t know who that guy is, but he should stop anonymously ranting.

Yeah I’m torn, on one hand, we need competent, experienced staff. On the other hand, losing up and down the ticket in a year where we have had more staff and $$$ than at anytime in memory should have repercussions. Maybe not just for staff…
