Front Range Kyle

@frontierairlines.bsky.social Charged my son $140 to fly his seabag Navy uniforms to his unit at the University of Michigan this morning.

So many reasons to not fly Frontier.

To be clear, this is what an insurrection looks like:

If you were a halfway decent human being and you knew an innocent man was rotting in foreign prison—likely suffering nightmarish conditions—because your administration screwed up and send him there, you’d do something about it immediately instead of shitposting lies all day.

Proud of Colorado!!

"They'll never cut Social Security" is the new "they'll never overturn Roe v Wade."

Republicans only love the fetus.

Federal workers have formed a website. Check it out. www.wethebuilders.org

The last time my son and his friend passed the iconic Denver blue bear, they were attending the state high school theater festival, as both are accomplished thespians. Today, they passed by it as they were showing up for democracy. #proudMama

Update: 15 confirmed cases. Health officials are racing to offer vaccines to unvaccinated children, they're operating a mobile unit to screen for cases, pre-treating exposed infants. Schools & hospitals are on alert.

Measles outbreaks are v hard to contain. A totally preventable situation.

grind the government to a halt

stop voting for any nominees, object to every unanimous consent, do a rotating talking filibuster on the senate floor going over the transformation of the United States into Elon Musk and Donald Trump’s personal fiefdom

act like what’s happening is happening

Exclusive: Musk aides lock government workers out of computer systems at US agency, sources say Aides to Elon Musk charged with running the U.S. government human resources agency have locked career civil servants out of computer systems that contain the personal data of millions of federal employees, according to two agency officials.

This is a hostile takeover of the federal government by a private citizen of unlimited means with no restrictions and no transparency. Welcome to the Deep State www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

We were promised exestential terror AND lower grocery bills.

Trump's New Transportation Secretary Voted Against FAA Funding in 2019 During his last term in Congress, Sean Duffy voted to defund the agency that provides air safety

Trump's Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy voted against FAA funding in 2019 during his time in Congress. His vote to defund the air safety agency raises questions about his current role overseeing transportation safety.

I love that a white guy was flying the plane, a white guy was flying the helicopter, and a white guy gutted the FAA last week but somehow the blame is too much diversity.

Please, Don't Normalize This Madness Something often happens to people exposed to repeated trauma.

Gradually, they become conditioned to accept the most unthinkable horrors as commonplace.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

This is grossly irresponsible reporting by the AP. What’s being offered is not a buyout. The deal is if you agree to resign in September you can continue working remotely until then. There is no buyout or severance.

Colorado bill that would ban semiautomatic guns with detachable magazines clears first hurdle Hundreds of Coloradans gathered at the Colorado Capitol to testify on the measure. It passed along party lines after a marathon hearing.

(above an image of Trump) This is the height of Trump's power. This is as strong as he's going to be. The man didn't get a majority of the vote, and his popular vote margin was historically small. He claims a mandate that voters didn't give him - and that's going to lead him to overreach quickly, and face mounting backlash (with our assistance) early in this presidency.

Feels like a good time to remind everyone that if you are a public servant wishing to report retaliation, acts of corruption or abuse of government power, I have a page for that on my website: www.wyden.senate.gov/whistleblowe...

a golden retriever puppy stands inside a bathtub with his front paws propped up on the side. he's wearing a brown bear ear headband with two small sunflowers on the right ear. there's a smidge of concern in his face, but mostly he seems ready to get this over with.

This is Dunkin. He will not take a bath without his bear ear headband. Partly because it keeps his face dry, and partly because it helps him feel brave. 12/10

My oldest baby is 2 decades today. He is kind, brilliant, and loves life. He spent his day auditioning for a musical and catching up on linear algebra homework. I pray for the country he is inheriting.

I think the difference between the first and second Trump terms is this time if he says to inject bleach, ghost Twitter and Facebook will promote it enthusiastically and the New York Times will publish pieces saying maybe it's not such a crazy idea.
