"This morning the online Smart Wall Map, which depicts completed, on-going, awarded, and planned Border Security Wall projects from the US Department of Homeland Security, has been updated to β€œwall off” nearly the entirety of the Big Bend region from the Rio Grande via over 400 miles of wall construction. The entire region – and beyond. There are very few exceptions.
So far beyond, in fact, that the current plan effectively walls off the public from the entirety of the famed Lower Canyons of the Rio Grande, Rio Grande Wild & Scenic River, a currently accessible and protected river corridor managed by the National Park Service. This sacred river corridor is one of, if not THE crown jewel of river recreation in the American Southwest, and is one of the last remaining wild and pristine stretches of river in Texas."

Whatever BS reason they're giving for doing this, you can bet it won't be closed off to mining and logging interests.

Let EVERYONE you know, who enjoys this natural treasure. It might just be the thing that gets the "I don't do politics" folks off their butts.

Is this really where we are? A sitting member of Congress going after fellow members like this is wild.

The fake sympathy paired with a swipe at two Muslim colleagues is straight-up Islamophobic garbage.

You're going to be blocking a bunch of naysayers. I'm really, really tired of hearing how bad she was. My block list grows daily.

Here’s a thought for James Comer.

There IS a First Lady who has had a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s not Hillary Clinton.

It might be worthwhile for Comer to subpoena the First Lady who actually knows Epstein.

You know, just to see what she knows.

I think the word has been spread. Followers on this site are not indicative of how many people who actually see anything you post. I have no idea how many of those "followers" I have muted or blocked, because unlike Twitter a block doesn't remove them. So you will be voting for Vance, I suppose.

Did you read what I said? I'm NOT a Newsom enthusiast, have not posted anything in support of him. But if he's the nominee I will vote for him against ANY REPUBLICAN! So fuck you.

No, mutual followers. I'm not an apologist for Newsom, but if he is the nominee in the next presidential election I will vote for him. A shitload of my followers follow her.

@erinbiba.bsky.social has added a couple of my mutuals as well as me to a moderation list she named "Nazi Tatoo Newsom apologists". I reported the list as trolling. Do whatever you wish with this info.

He lied about GDP, inflation, grocery/egg/beef prices, jobs. He even lied that the American monster who murdered Iryna Zarutska was an illegal alien. He lied about EVERYTHING. Ya know who lies like that? Someone who knows he and his miserable party are corrupt failures and in DEEP SHIT...

State Troopers Laughed at the Suffering of People They Detained Footage of May 2025's immigration sweeps, reviewed by the Nashville Banner, shows state troopers joking with ICE agents about people's suffering

"[a pernicious belief we have]...a man can write a number on a woman’s arm, laughing with his buddies at her fear and despair at work, and then he can set that mindset aside and come home and be a good neighbor, husband and father."

Lot of domestic violence committed by cops. A *lot*.

I’ll just be blocking all the β€œYou’d better be nice to me or I’m not gonna vote” people. The privilege necessary to hold your vote hostage is astounding, and I don’t have time for it.

The Convicted FElon is willing to get military personnel killed while he strips money away from veterans so he can protect his ass from the Epstein files.

Live Updates: Former Prince Andrew Is Released After Being Arrested Amid Epstein Revelations

I'm seeing posts claiming that former-prince Andrew was arrested for engaging in pedophilia with Jeffrey Epstein. He was arrested for sharing confidential government intel with Epstein while serving as a British trade envoy.

I need a reporter to tell fat fuck pedo smut that he has not been exonerated and ask him-
Why a pregnant underage girl was brought to Mira Lago by Jeffery and what happened to the baby!
How many children has he murdered!
How many girls did he auction off while measuring vaginas with his fingers!

Beyond parody.

How many dictatorship-style monuments, building name changes, and fake awards do Americans have to endure?

The people who make these lists are fucking idiots. I'm super curious how saying that laughing about rape is wrong makes me transphobic or evil. But again, these douchecanoes are fucking idiots. Thanks for ensuring I'll never see your stupid posts dipshits! You did me a solid πŸ€™

I'm going to attempt this 20 part thread thing again, so hopefully if you share this one, they all will be attached and viewed together.

Voting for a candidate widely accused of fraud, sexual assault, and moral depravity does not reflect sound judgment, nor does it speak to the voter’s integrity or ethical character.

What's wrong with so many Americans?

I'm almost 79. The past year has been a real bitch healthwise, but I'm going to be royally pissed if I don't outlive Orange Hitler, even by just one day.
