No wonder Trump likes the Morenos, they’re cut from the same clothe. Also, when Bernie owned car dealerships he wouldn’t pay his sales staff overtime. Employees sued, Courts agreed. Bernie was ordered to pay employees the $400,000 he kept. Larceny runs in the Moreno family. Read about his brother

With Trump’s $1.77-billion USD, slush fund, I wrote to my US Senators telling them to stop Trump’s thief of taxpayer money. Sen Husted & Moreno’s offices responded with non-statements. This is why republicans must be removed from power. We need accountability. VOTE - it’s that important.

Paraphrasing The Great Gatsby, "They were careless people, DJT & Hegseth - they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money & their vast carelessness and let other people clean up the mess they had made". This is Trump’s world view, let others clean-up his ness.

Strong-arm? Its the old “nice place you got here, shame if something would happen to it.” This is extortion, republican style.

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment. They are openly saying this. Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

Back in the 90s, big healthcare ran an ad to scare Americans into opposing health reform. It ended in a famous line: “When they choose, we lose.” As millions of Americans face health insurance price hikes with impossible deductibles, I visited Harry and Louise in 2025 to see what they think:

Realized that Bluesky has capitulated & placed age verification requirement for all members for DM usage in 25 US states requiring age verification data. These laws are unconstitutional, they’re an infringement of our 1st Amendment rights and our rights to privacy. Bkuesky - restore DM messaging.

Ohio is now interfering with my 1st Amend rights by limiting my access to sites like Blue-sky. I must submit personal info verifying my age, SS, address & State. To Blue-sky, tell republican states to F-off. Suppression of free access to social media because it “might” have adult content is BS.

Exactly, nothing from Trump or any of his minions. No mention of an award for the fast acting New Hope officer who prevented additional carnage by arriving at 2nd assassination attempt. Forcing the gunman to flee

Franklin MacDougal 🐾 🫘🐸🤘@frankieface15.bsky.social

Just maybe remember Melissa Hortman🙏, her husband Mark🙏, & their dog Gilbert🙏, along with John Hoffman who survived. They didn't get nearly the press I'm sure this will, no matter the outcome.

Have we seen enough slaughter of innocence yet? Have republicans seen enough to take semi-auto AR-style rifles off the streets yet? 57-school shooting in 2025. High velocity bullets from AR-style rifles liquify a child’s internal organs. For God sake, take these weapons off the street.

Today marks the anniversary of the Great Burn-off in East Palestine, Ohio. The citizens were MISINFORMED under Mike DeWine & OhGOP leadership - they lied to the people of East Palestine. Research shows the cloud contained dioxin & PFAS & was spread across 16 US states.

Excellent article written by William Phillis in the Dayton Daily News. This is a must read

I wrote to both of Ohio Senators expressing my concerns about the Save Act suppressing voter rights & the need to vote against this unnecessary bill. I’ve attached his reply which exhibits his strong distrust of his fellow citizens. His “show me your papers” is not thought through.

Florida’s concentration camp Alligator Alcatraz is estimated to cost Floridians $450-million. Since DeSantis is all about optics, I’m standing with Alt National Parks - BOYCOTT VACATIONING IN FLORIDA or any of the Gulf States.

Alt National Park Service@altnps.bsky.social

We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.

This should scare the hell out of the hurricane coast residents. Similar cuts have been made in tornado alley. By gutting NOAA we are not safer. Demand restoration, call & write your representatives & Senators. Demand Action

JUST IN 🚨: U.S. 30-year Treasury Yield soared to 5.15% this morning, the highest level since 2007 👀 Anything interesting happen in 2008?

Figures don’t lie, but (Republican) liars figure. Case in point 👇🏿 VOTE - throw the bums out.

I remember one of the most gracious Nursing Supervisors I ever worked with, Mrs Higoki. Borned in Hawaii to Japanese-American parents, imprisoned within an Internment Camp because of her heritage. Yet despite this she still believed in America. Never Again, George. Now we fight 47 with the truth

George Takei@georgetakei.bsky.social

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

I was looking over a listing of words “outlawed” during 47’s republican Administration. In the novel 1984 Winston is at lunch with Syme, a specialist in Newspeak, said about his work “We’re destroying words-scores of them, hundreds of them, every day. We’re cutting the language down to the bone.”

Paraphrasing: 47’s immigrant roundup was at the end of a long process. The hatred was gradually developed by 47 & his minions. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusions, dehumanization & escalating violence to systematic & industrial detainment… Never Again - Anywhere

Auschwitz Memorial@auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

Mahalia Jackson called out, “Tell them about your dream, Martin! Tell them about the dream!” a dream for all people, of all races & colors & backgrounds, sharing in an America marked by freedom and democracy. Today begins our Resistance, our march against the tyranny of 47’s regime.

All future actions by 47’s admin should be assigned to the republican administration and/or republicans. This will have several effects: GOP legislators will have to take responsibilities for their association with 47 or stand up for what they don’t like. 47 will not get the attention he so craves.

I had polio when i was 9. I was taken from my parents & placed in a Hospital for contageous diseases- the polio ward. I would see them once a week - thru the glass window at the end of my ward. I could not walk. It was terrifying. Kids died. Iron lungs were awful. Dont let RFK Jr ban the vaccine
