Let me be clear: It’s ILLEGAL to deny federal workers back pay after a shutdown.

You don’t get to punish people for doing their jobs just because you’re failing at yours.

The Commander in Chief Is Not Okay Trump put on a disturbing show for America’s generals and admirals.

New piece from @radiofreetom.bsky.social answers the question: What does “nothingburger” have to do with
“utterly embarrassing”
“not okay”
“more confused”
“lost in the halls of history”
“usual grievances, lies, and misrepresentation”
“obsessions”
&
“unhinged”

It’s….sobering and also a great read

Picture of Trump along with a text from Joe Walsh HE'S AN INSURRECTIONIST. HE'S A PSYCHOPATH. HE'S A PATHOLOGICAL LIAR. HE'S AN AUTHORITARIAN. HE'S A CRIMINAL. HE'S A CON MAN. HE'S A FELON. HE'S AN IDIOT. HE'S BEEN A SEXUAL PREDATOR HIS WHOLE LIFE. AND NOW IT LOOKS LIKE HE'S A PEDOPHILE TOO. WELL DONE AMERICA. WELL DONE.

At this point, these NASA employees fully understand that signing a letter like this means the Trump administration will likely fire them and even perhaps go after them personally

Yet rather than remain silent, they chose to speak up

They are heroes, one and all

I can’t afford brand name products anyway!

One thing that is clear from these headlines is that the big news orgs don't have a vocabulary or strategy for how to report to readers when the President claims to do something he not only lacks authority to do but even the power to do. That's a very basic, foundational thing.

YouTube video by Forbes Breaking News BREAKING NEWS: Bernie Sanders Delivers Blistering Response To Trump's Address To Congress

I just watched Bernie Sanders response to Trump’s speech last night. If all the red states organize town halls and their reps don’t show up, then play Sanders response for the crowd or invite him to attend virtually to explain the facts and truth about Trump’s actions
