The cruelty, the callousness, the indecency. The Trump administration will implode. America will emerge from this dark era of hate, cruelty and indecency. America will rise again. But we ALL need to be in this fight for our future.

Trump's "unconditional discharge" in his NY case - no punishment for his crimes - is a supremely unjust result. Some say it proves justice doesn't matter. I say the frustration, anger & disgust we feel at the absence of punishment for Trump's 34 felony crimes proves that to us, justice DOES matter.

There is simply no better ROI for Democratic officials than validating independent progressive media.

In that week when Musk bought Twitter & started bungling it, the possibility occurred to me that he'd bought it to end its usefulness as a pro-democracy tool. I'm so grateful for BlueSky & the fact that we're all here now & that it's increasing possible to get our news here too!

MADDOW: “Maybe what President Biden should have done is not just pardon his son, Hunter, but named him ambassador to France. Maybe then the criticism would be a little more muted.”

A year from now, when groceries don't cost less, and gas doesn't cost less, we're going to remind you all, that you traded the lives and dignity of your wives, daughters, sisters and mothers for the promise of cheaper goods that you're not going to get.

None of the hot takes about why Democrats lost the election touch this @eladn.bsky.social deep dive
It goes wider, deeper, drills way down to the heart of how we ended up at American fascism-again. Inside the reality of the tyranny ahead of us, is an opportunity—if we choose to accept the assignment

BREAKING: Donald Trump spits in the faces of his gullible MAGA supporters by selecting investment banker Warren Stephens to serve as the powerful U.S. Ambassador to the United Kingdom.

So much for draining the swamp.

Like and share if you never fell for Trump's faux populist shtick!

Starting a phony transgender bathroom debate and hiding behind the guise of “protecting women” to distract from your attempts to push through the confirmations of alleged rapists, sex traffickers, and fraudsters at the highest levels of government is peak Republican Party.

Americans didn’t want another old president so they elected a 78-year-old.

Americans wanted to end crime so they elected a criminal.

Keep it going lol
