Not-for-profits are my gig, working for the people. Mom, wife, Gramma, sinner, saint. Fionna Apple said it best. Thought for the ages: There is too much, way too much, money in US politics.

25th Amendment? We can’t even get network news to air it or even mention it. It’s a massive national media coverup to hide the fact the we have an addled president.

This actually makes me cry. I know people who I am afraid to ask how they feel about this.

Jack Smith: “it’s inconceivable to me how you can pardon people who beat police officers… and then vilify the officers”

This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

If the nation wasn’t led by madmen, this would be a huge story. As it is, Trump’s offer to sell weapons to our most powerful adversary is just another sign of America’s national suicide.

nytimes.comTrump Offered to Sell Arms to China, U.S. Ambassador SaysPresident Trump made the offer to Xi Jinping, China’s leader, said David Perdue, the ambassador to China. The White House later said the U.S. had no plans for such a sale.

God damn this man and all his cohorts that just doesn't care about democracy.

What an odd moment in United States history. A U.S. president is running an overtly political camaign advertisement, right before midterm elections, paid for by the U.S. government. Trump appears to believe he is immune from any kind of legal limit. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/27/u...

Please stop overestimating what a democratic Congress can do. The oligarchs are spending money to make you think a Dem Congress can arrest people and hold trials and pass laws without a POTUS signature so that you’ll be disappointed when they don’t do stuff they can’t do. Don’t fall for it.

Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias. He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends. The one person he told was a ProPublica reporter. (Published Jan. 2025)

This is an absolute disaster from a national security perspective. Obviously, a lot on F-35s is classified, but a weapons-bay door and a canopy with radar-absorbing material are some of the most sensitive. Hard to describe how bad this is.

This shit is so infuriating. We should make these parents famous. Get their faces out there: "this is the couple that demanded the right to beat and intimidate their children without interference."

Andrew Quemere@andrewqmr.bsky.social

A couple went on a Fox News podcast and claimed the state of #Massachusetts took away their teen because they won't help the teen transition. But it's actually because the father was charged with beating and threatening to kill the teen and the mother was charged with witness intimidation.

We should all be disgusted of the White House Press Corp. No one walked out No one told Trumpy to go fuck himself. No one said mean things to Trumpy after he chopped down another pillar of American Democracy. No one asked for proof any of them published 'fake news'. No one did anything. Sad.

As an American, I also don't just see this as a "Trump thing." Trump is a sick individual. That my country supported that, lied about and for him, told their own country and others that they shouldn't believe their own eyes, and obliterated the constitution, is even more sick than Trump.

Max Fawcett@maxfawcett.bsky.social

This is the part many Americans -- including the Bezosites at the Washington Post -- don't understand. Canadians don't see this just as a Trump thing. It's that America elected him twice, and the second time with an even bigger mandate. The problem we're addressing is America, not Trump.

Macklemore can sue Robert Kraft for Tortious Interference for economic harm and I hope he does. Discovery would be fun: "Which other stadium owners did you talk to?" and "We need all related emails, text messages and contracts between you and them and you and Sheeran and Sheeran's team."

Flora and I are busy FINALLY learning about adult ADHD. I was diagnosed in my late 30s. I am now in my late 50s and just starting to delve into it. Seems that I'm doing very well on the procrastination part!! #CatsofBlueSky #ADHD #Kitties #MentalHealth

Hypocrisy is believing people should be fired for posting Charlie Kirk’s own words but saying nothing about a man who yelled, “He should be shot!” when Ted Cruz mentioned Abdul El-Sayed, James Talarico, and Mayor Mamdani.

Given how much the FCC is concerned about Disney-owned channels giving unequal time to politicians, I'm sure ESPN Game Day will have Texas alum James Talarico on next to counterbalance Ted Cruz

This is a very good piece. Mistakes were made and it's important to acknowledge that.

9/11 was traumatic for all Americans. But the U.S. and other governments panicked, and took their eyes off a lot of other threats for a while. We’re still living with the consequences of that panic. My look back at that day and what it brought: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
