In opposition to @ncgop.bsky.social racist idiocy in #gerrymandering voting districts to cheat their way to power.

I’m getting creeped out by the creeping Christian messaging everywhere. My Vizio tv Home Screen showed 3-4 Christian-themed shows (from various channels) including animated stuff.

Charlie Kirk in his own words: ‘prowling Blacks’ and ‘the great replacement strategy’ The far-right commentator didn’t pull his punches when discussing his bigoted views on current events

And for those seeking some evidence as to why the so-called "left" rejects the views of slain Charlie Kirk, the @theguardian.com has once again done a good job: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

@crockett.house.gov Thank you so much for your continued work - hard, hard work - to bring facts and truth to the floor of our congress, and in events such as the @redwineblueusa.bsky.social event last night. You are a rock star. Or disco star. Or funk star. Or jazz star. Or.. just a star.

He finally got his revenge against the man who asked him if he was up past his jail time.

Now it's up to us to ask why he's terrified to release #TheEPSTEIN_PedoFiles.

#StandWithTheSurvivors

@wordpress.org : This is tough, but I'm very, very worried. With the Trump regimes continuing crack-down on dissenting opinions, is there anything you can tell me about how my blog will remain visible to current and potential readers? TIA.

Stephen Colbert’s show is cancelled for criticizing #MAGA and #Trump. Now Jimmy Kimmel for criticizing the regime. America is caving in.

Gathering of people listening to speakers telling stories of the negative impacts of DOGE cuts in our community.

The stories being told by our neighbors from our congressional district - one of the most impacted districts in the nation. Healthcare, childcare, education, refugees, science….entire programs, jobs, families and lives disrupted. #DOGE

People gathered under a pavilion with a band playing in the background.

Throwing a party for folks impacted by the #DOGE cuts. This is what #democracy looks like.

“What’s up”? How about the supposed champions for transparency and protectors of children demand *all* the #Epstein evidence?

My local NPR station just lost 800k in annual federal funding for public radio. Because, you know, “public”. Thanks, #republicans for tearing down our #democracy.

They could be addressing the rising costs that are crushing families.

But instead, House Republicans are busy naming an opera house after Melania Trump.

What, exactly, has she contributed to the arts that makes this a national priority? (2/2)

Lawmakers vote to name Kennedy Center opera house after Melania Trump A key House panel voted to name the Kennedy Center opera house after first lady Melania Trump.

They could be explaining to millions of Americans how their horrible budget will gut Medicaid and cost lives.

They could be voting to release the Epstein files.

They could be fixing their broken immigration policies.

A 24-year study of more than 1.2 million Danish children was just released which shows no link between aluminum in vaccines & an increased risk of 50 chronic conditions, including autoimmune diseases, allergies & autism.

North Carolina was expected to receive $168.8 million in federal education funding on July 1 for things like teacher training and after-school programs. But the Trump administration notified states the day before that it was withholding the money pending a review. #trumpfail #factivism

The big, shameful Republican budget would make health insurance more expensive, bureaucratic, & difficult to obtain. People without insurance will still get sick & hospitals will have to treat them in emergency rooms. This bill is a prescription for higher health costs for all.

People gathered at a No Kings protest.

Dictators make a show of forced marches of war machinery to attempt strength. We the people object. 2000+ No Kings protests today, this one in my small hometown that garnered over 1k people. We volunteered our time and materials. Our Orange Despot spent 45 million (of our) dollars.#truepatriots
