Dear Speaker Johnson: it is not your job to β€œrun around” making sure #Trump and #Musk are happy. It is your job to lead your caucus to create legislation and budgets that benefit the people of the United States. Your power is EQUAL to that of the Presidency, not to be used for valet service.

I’m so tired of them. I’m tired of their lies. I’m tired of their disgusting amorality. I’m tired of their faces, their voices, their smirks. I’m tired of their inability to say β€” let alone do β€” even one thing remotely kind or humble or appropriate, ever. So tired.

This is what the Founders had in mind when they designed the 2nd Amendment.

Everyone should be following the unapologetically independent @marcelias.bsky.social for up-to-the-minute reporting on one of the most powerful guardrails democracy has left - the courts.

A 2006 study found undocumented immigrants contribute more than they cost Texas. The state hasn’t updated it since. A comptroller’s report found that deporting the estimated 1.4 million undocumented immigrants living in Texas in 2005 would have cost the state about $17.7 billion in gross domestic product.

I truly hope our European allies keep supporting Ukraine after our coward President Trump bends over and licks Putin's boots!

Imagine the outrage if this headline was

β€œMassachusetts Education Board to Vote on Koran-Infused Lessons in Public Schools”

There’s a reason we need separation of church and state.

If you want religious education for YOUR kids, go for it. Don’t force-feed it to mine.

Lots of people are about to be really mad that price of eggs goes up but they can’t get a 2nd job because they can’t afford childcare and when they do finally get the eggs they get E Coli because there’s no FDA but can’t go to the doctor because they got kicked off their health plan. #FAFO

The same Trump voters who will tell you this election was about β€œfreedom” just handed unprecedented control over our finances, our food, our medicine, our families, our health, our information, our military, our environment, our schools and our bodies, to a handful of billionaires.

This is a good block list. Best part is that as MAGA are added, once you subscribe and block all, all the new adds are blocked, too. bsky.app/profile/did:...

Remember: fascism thrives on apathy.

The autocrats want you to tune out. They want to overwhelm you. They want you to give up.

Don’t give them want they want.

Stay in this fight. Remain vigilant. And let’s keep building.
