People saying that users prefer the bubble of BlueSky to the feral viciousness of Twitter - well...yes.
In the same way I prefer a restaurant where the staff are nice and the food is good over one where they stab you with forks while serving bowls of cold piss.
Elon Musk embodies every stereotype he claims black men have:
Drug user.
Illegitimate kids.
Absent father.
Broken home.
Abusive.
Lives off the government.
Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.
It's been over six months now and they still haven't fully released the Epstein files as required by law because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."
Republicans told Richard Nixon they could no longer support his corruption two years after he won the presidency in a landslide. Could Trump’s $1.8 billion “weaponization fund” be the tipping point in a presidency he won/stole, by a mere 1.7%?
Abrego García should apply for the “Anti-Weaponization Fund.”
How many other people have a district court ruling actually *finding* vindictive prosecution?
Trump wants to give $1.8 billion to the same people who destroyed our Capitol, attempted to overthrow a free and fair election on Jan 6, and attacked police officers.
Not on our watch! We are fighting back against this outrageous insult to our nation’s law enforcement and to democracy itself.

One of the best things to happen to Africa. Imagine an Africa where every country can reliably produce as much electricity as it wants without having to import any fuel.
Rep. Jamie Raskin tears into Trump's slush fund:
"Every part of this farce is an affront to the Constitution. It usurps both the exclusive power of Congress to legislate programs and spend money and the power of the courts to decide specific cases and controversies.
"It is, quite simply, a scam."
So let me tell you what I’m for:
I’m for democracy.
I’m for the rule of law.
I’m for equality under the law.
I’m for freedom of speech and religion.
And I’m for an America that works for everyone — not just those f*ckers who lie and cheat.
New Mexicans are struggling right now while this Administration is robbing taxpayers & bleeding Americans dry.
Our families are exhausted & hopeless—& deserve leadership that actually cares about them and the future. Which is why I am working every single day to make sure they’re taken care of!
I really never thought J6 was going to be a major issue in the 2026 midterm elections.
I don’t think anyone did.

Donald Trump, JD Vance, both parties, ICE, and AI are underwater.
A Catholic pope from Chicago is the most trusted man in the country.
Govern accordingly.
