I want to get active on BlueSky. BlueSky Algorithm: please connect me with people who are keen on discussing (in no particular order): politics, democracy, history, skiing, immigration, dance, dogs, public health, astronomy and astrophysics, technology, feminism and women, nature and humor.

I’m 70, and I would most certainly support this.

Happy Sunday everybody. My question is: how do we know who and what to believe? Who caused the speed of Ukraine's Starlink to slow down and become unusable for their defense? Did the order come from the White House, as was reported, or did it come from Musk himself, as has also been reported? WTF.

NYPD arresting an ICE goon for trying to steal someone off the streets of NYC. RESPECT!!!

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

The *second* best thing about a James Talarico win would be how angry this annoying, interfering dork will be at not being able to buy a Senate seat for $200,000,000.

Every accusation is an admission. Dr. Amy Acton ""is a DISASTER who, uncontrollably, lies, cheats, and steals!" Trump wrote on social media."" www.nytimes.com/2026/10/22/u...

Well, duh.

I'm stunned that 40%+ percent of likely voters STILL approve of Trump's 8th grade performance as president. I shudder to think what would it take to bring the number to 10%. (Source: New York Times/Siena polls of the likely electorate in October 2026.)

General life hint: Putin is not a humanitarian. The unredacted Epstein files must be released.

This is all you need to know about billionaires and their reaction to paying their fair share of taxes.

Every bit of this 👇

It’s a clear conflict of interest for the Trump Administration to have their own lawyers represent immigrant children against their own deportation machine. We have two demands for Secretary Kennedy: (1) Drop this absurd plan (2) Restore independent legal counsel Now.

Elon Musk says Italians should stay in Italy and the Japanese in Japan. Then why is this South African in America?

This is profoundly annoying. From the Governor to the average individual voter, there's absolutely no way that our state will accept any change to its name. #ItsNewMexico www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/white-h...

“You are a Christian candidate. Why haven’t I heard you disavow Timothy McVeigh and the Ku Klux Kan? Seems sorta suspicious.”

😁😁😁

Whether it is the East Wing of the White House, the Reflecting Pool on the Mall, the East Potomac golf course, or the Kennedy Center, the wildly incompetent Donald Trump can't turn his attention to *anything* without leaving behind debris and destruction.

Zelenskyy’s "Why would you restrict a country fighting for its survival?" is a line people/their AI robot teachers will quote when they study the Russia/Ukraine war. It doesn't matter who decided to shut Starlink off. Keeping it off is a choice that’s allowing drones to kill civilians.

Truth: Europe cannot trust Starlink or the US now.

Have I said lately that Putin is not our friend?

When Elon Musk holds a family reunion do you think all his "breeders" are there?

And what's to stop him from turning that power on the United States?

Heather Cox Richardson did a video covering this and some of the other extraordinary events of the past week. Her superpower is putting everything in the larger context. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehn-...

Don't give weight to poll results unless you understand WHO was polled (e.g., registered voters, likely voters?) and what the margins of error are.

Trump and Musk are doing everything they can to try and force Ukraine to surrender to Putin while Musk spends over $300 million to try and buy the midterm elections to maintain total power. The American government under Republicans are on the side of evil. Vote them out.

@sketchyrepublic.bsky.social

Elon cut off Starlink to Ukraine because they blew up his Russian bots and so now his posts don’t get enough likes? Do I have that right?

I'd be embarrassed if I had voted for this doofus.

Wouldn't it be nice?

Ossoff: "I want to remind folks across Georgia that while you pay more for everything as a result of Donald Trump's incompetence, the president and his family are enriching themselves to the tune of billions of dollars ... we urgently need to restore checks and balances"

Ken Paxton is selling off Texas — our land, our water, our communities. Data centers bankroll Paxton, they get tax breaks, and you get stuck with the bill. We can’t afford Ken Paxton’s corruption. (This ad was made by humans — not AI.)
