Lifelong Dem. Grew up in big Irish family. Despair for our Republic and the Fourth Estate. Gotta find peace.

Before leaving the WHO, the US must pay all of its outstanding debt. To the surprise of no one, the Conman is doing what he does best: stiffing the WHO. Refusing to pay our debt. He has no integrity, no sense of right & wrong, only a sense of spite & vengeance. www.statnews.com/2026/01/21/t...

Yes and that is what terrifies me. The acceleration of the coup is astounding. And why does the Republican Party want chosen to contract polio? What is their possible gain??

Maybe some are. But the they’ve all overslept and they’re all going to be late for work.

I couldn’t agree more. I was hardened by the no kings protests at 7 million is minuscule compared to what we need. We need 2 million in DC all at once. And may be prepared to be teargassed by or worse.

Dems floated a narrow bill to fund the military, which can’t move because the House isn’t in session. Meanwhile, DoD is now going to spend funds not appropriated by Congress to ensure military paychecks continue. POTUS now both commands and provisions the military. Unconstitutional and SO dangerous

If you’re not boycotting Disney/ABC and their collaborators yet, here’s all the info you need:

WHAT THE FUCK! Why are we standing around with our thumbs up our (choose orifice)? I’m ready to go chain myself to the entrance! We’re not doing anything and it’s terrifying me that we are slipping into a authoritarianism just like the Germans in the late 1930s.

It’s maddening to love the little shits so much you cannot bear the thought of losing them while at the same time wanting to.

It's AWFUL. I really love my boy, and I'm at my wits' end. His 1/2 brother claws all my rattan furniture; he pees on the couch and chairs. :( Happy Caturday, though. ;)

Oh, I know. That was a rhetorical plea.

ATS/NLG@atsnlg.bsky.social

Why are you asking me?? Just this morning, I put a bunch of peed-on sofa covers in the wash (with special enzyme detergent); my 3 year old cat, who normally uses the box or the litter robot, still pees on my couch. :( That said, there are tons of articles/suggestions about this on the web.

Please watch and share. It can be easy to get a little lost in the details, but the ENTIRE THING they're doing is absolutely built on a foundation of lies and flagrantly illegal.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social breaks down each layer of the "sheer lawlessness" of the Trump deportation case. (1/2)

We must stop these horrible people!

Vandalize a Tesla or demand due process for immigrants illegally deported to their potential death and you're a terrorist. Help Trump overthrow a free and fair election and you're a hero. This is what you've become, GOP.

JUST IN: Deputy Assistant to the President and "Counterterrorism Czar" Sebastian Gorka says anyone advocating for due process for Kilmar Abrego Garcia could be viewed as "aiding and abetting a terrorist" and be federally charged. (h/t Philip Germain)

Cruelty is the point of Republicans. Every bill they introduce is aimed to do harm-unless it’s for the rich rich.

London can be amazing for wildlife. Here are Fifi and Foufou - the 2 foxes who regularly visit my tiny London garden, in a busy area, close to a major road... In the decades I lived in rural Southern England I seldom saw foxes. Here it's daily, many of them!
