Bove’s confirmation hearing for the 3rd Circuit is on Wednesday. His own former DOJ colleagues say they don’t trust him to be impartial. Watch the video & insist that your senators do too before they vote.
We are living in a fascist authoritarian govt. not a democracy.
Once again, how does this fit into the MAHA agenda?
RFK Jr’s whole shtick is Americans don’t need more access to medical care. They need only healthier food and fewer environmental toxins. Meanwhile the administration is reducing nutritional assistance and increasing environmental toxins.

Insanity: The deportation flights Trump used military jets for—that Mexico refused to accept—cost the U.S. up to $852,000 per flight to attempt to deport just 80 migrants at a time.
To compare, flights directly chartered by Immigration and Customs Enforcement cost just $8,577.

I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.
Here’s more.
A British theory from 2005 suggests that, for a variety of reasons, the 3d Monday in January - termed Blue Monday - is the most depressing day of the year. (Google it)
Seems close to the mark.
CNN reports that the January 6 criminals have been told they are invited to attend inaugural balls tonight. They are going to be released from the D.C. jail momentarily.
All are insurrectionists.
We are not a democracy anymore, folks. We do not have rule of law.
In the space of half a day, the new administration has trashed the Constitution, subverted the independence of the DOJ, granted a broad amnesty to traitors, abandoned the global community on climate and public health, and launched a wide-ranging attack on minority rights.
Exactly why @bsky.app is so important. Engaging on this platform is important. As is growing this platform.
Which one of these men joins Tom Anderson and MySoace in the annals of history first ?
Their greed is our opportunity.
ATTN: THREAD: The loyalty interviews have begun in DC. As someone who has direct experience with this, I have a couple of recommendations for all federal workers. Please share this widely, and with any federal government employee you know. 1/
True.
Crockett: The fact that we have Americans that are saying, wait a minute, are you saying that tariffs are going to negatively impact me? It's kind of like that wall that we are still waiting on Mexico to build, that they are going to pay for. No, we are going to pay for it.
Not a single grand jury of Americans declined to prosecute Trump. They all returned indictments.
So let me get this straight.
If you apply for a job at a grocery store, you have to undergo a background check.
But, if you apply to be Director of National Intelligence, you don't?
Got it.
Old news

Since the Republican Party seized control of the schools 12 years ago, Oklahoma has gone from 7th in the nation to 49th in the nation.
Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. Each year, the trans community loses too many lives, especially trans women of color, to hate and violence.
More than ever, we must stand by our trans family and support them, hold space for them, and insist the scapegoating and targeting stop.
Now.
When I say that the right is dominating the left on almost all platforms, this is what I mean. I hope Democratic officials take this into account every day. If you want an ecosystem that will advocate for YOU, then YOU need to help build it. Give interviews to creators, break news with creators...
