I LOVE this account. If you aren't following @carlquintanilla.bsky.social what the HELL are you doing with your life? The information he shares is priceless.

I'm sorry, but what's wrong with giving health care to immigrants? Republicans don't even want to give health care to citizens, but I don't understand the argument against keeping people who contribute billions of dollars to the economy healthy. It's also less expensive in the long run.

Apple caved to the Trump DOJ and removed the anti-ICE apps from its App Store. Cowardice.

behold the bold and brave washington post opinion section (under new management), lol

Trump trashes Pete Doocy and Fox.

Opinion | Democrats shouldn’t bail out Trump as the shutdown drags on The best time for the opposition to take a stand, rather than settle for untrustworthy promises, is right now.

Trump's acting criminally authoritarian but hasn't consolidated power. Fascist overreach makes him even more unpopular.

I badly wish we weren't in this situation. But we are. So as bad as short-term pain will be, it'll get more people to pay attention, which might be our only chance to stop them.

Is it just me or…WTF❓
Is there something in the REPUBLICAN food chain❓

That would sound like something Miller would do.

I more I learn about Miller the more I am convinced he was born pure evil. There is so much hatred in him - he will do anything to make everyone miserable.

I saw a video of him at 17 and he’s talking with his friends about torture and laughing.

Idk who needs to hear this but don’t let the hard days win —
we got shit to do.
Rest. Recharge. Resist.

This country is being run by a sociopath while a senile president golfs and spews hate through a handheld device whenever the whim hits him. The sociopath zip ties children while his alcoholic and rageful bestie blows up boats like it’s a game of Battleship. 1/2
