Big Joe

This feels like the birth of the ‘fourth’ reich because, though his targets are different (for now), the insane hatred he has managed to create among his followers will lead them to approve of this. He’s creating his army the same way Hitler did: scraping together the dumb and the dangerous.

We keep hearing about masculinity from the Zuckerbergs of the world-- this woman has shown more courage in this 60-second clip than any of the tech billionaires have shown in recent memory as they grovel at Trump's feet.

This is what the incoming president is doing. Taking some misguided victory lap as LA burns. Has he uttered a single well wish for the millions of people in this city or is that only reserved for those who display sufficient fealty?

A classy gentleman! Prayers for all those who are dealing with such heartbreaking loss.

What if I told you that wealthy people's and celebrities' lives, homes, pets, and families are equally as valid and worth protecting as anyone else's?

What happened to simple compassion for other human beings?

Dear World,

We're sorry.

Sincerely,

Decent Americans

All Americans Know January 6th Was An Insurrection. Decent Ones Care. We all saw it. On January 6th, 2021, many of us watched it in disbelief in real time: the almost incomprehensible sight of thousands of people breaching the very seat of our Government: smashing windo...

January 6th was a coordinated attempt to kidnap members of Congress, overturn a free and fair election by its people, and install a president whose criminality is simply unprecedented and whose involvement was complete.

This man and a small group of capitol police officers singlehandedly saved our democracy four years ago.

In November, 77 million Americans said "to hell with them" and voted for the insurrectionists.

Your "Back the Blue" flags are a pathetic disgrace and your patriotism is bullsh*t.

Hey MAGAs, you think you’re angry at Hunter Biden’s pardon?

Imagine him being your president on top of that.

Then, you might have a clue how the rest of us feel.

The real-time reporting of South Korea today was far easier to follow along on Bluesky than X. It’s these moments that define these platforms. Bluesky really does have the juice.

Biden said he would not pardon Hunter, and I've always been against such a pardon. But MAGA is screaming “abuse of power” while Trump is busy drafting 1,000 pardons for his family, his lawyers, his landscapers, January 6 rioters, and that guy from the Apprentice who got fired in Week 3...

It's a disgrace that President Biden pardoned a group of treasonous traitors who collaborated with him to betray our nation at the highest levels and endangered hundreds of millions of Americans...

Oh, wait...

Kash Patel is as dangerous a pick for the FBI as Matt Gaetz was at DOJ.

This deranged individual will be leading the FBI if Trump gets his way. This pick is not about law and order, it is about revenge and about targeting your political enemies.

The Explosion of Matt Gaetz and Other Early Lessons in Trump 2.0 There are many more manic Thursdays to come.

The plotlines forced
impossible choices. Should you spend time on the chart of Venmo payments Gaetz made to women he allegedly paid for sex? Or the police report on the allegations of a woman who says she was sexually assaulted by Hegseth?

Comcast has announced they are selling MSNBC. Musk is now talking about putting a bid in for it. Joe & Mika just kissed Trump’s ring. Jack Dorsey sold us out. Are you saying we should put our trust in them? Some of us can’t be bought, at any price, because we care about things other than money.

Remember when George Santos valiantly returned to the Capitol on Matt Gaetz's behalf to advocate for an accused child sex predator? And then Gaetz withdrew anyway and now Santos is just on record having supported an alleged statutory rapist? Hope it was worth it!

Don't forget how many Republicans were STILL publicly willing to stick their necks out for Matt Gaetz knowing what he's accused of. Not only was it for nothing given the failed AG bid, but they proved themselves wiling to run cover for an alleged CHILD SEX TRAFFICKER. Was it worth it, Republicans?

We left X and joined Bluesky because those against our parks said, “If you don’t like it, leave.” So we did. And now they’re saying, “No, come back so we can say mean things to you—it makes us feel important.”

Bluesky tip for newbies: Bluesky has no real algorithm. Likes here do nothing but show the poster that you enjoyed their content.

That kindness is always going to be appreciated by creators, but if you want to help to boost something here, you have to repost it so others see it. 🙂

Dear Dems,

Where are the recounts?

Seriously, you're failing us.

Sincerely,

The United States of America.
