You’re watching the administration lose control of the narrative in real time. The more they show their supporters that they don’t give a shit about their gun rights, the worse it gets. I’ve seen over a dozen right-wing commentators call out the propaganda. That’s progress.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

I hope you are right.🙄🤨🥹

The past few days have confirmed for me something I’ve long believed: the American political system is terminally fucked, but the American people are not. Most Americans want to live in a democracy in which everyone has a decent life—the fascists in this regime represent a dying minority.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

Van Hollen: "They really think the American people are stupid. I mean, we can all see the video. We saw the video with Renee Good. We saw the video with Alex Pretti. The real domestic terrorists are in the White House right now."

Don’t let this White House lie to you. Believe what you see. Alex Pretti was trying to help a woman off the ground. Then immigration agents tackled, shot, and killed him. It’s time for them to get the hell out of MN.

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific. They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him. Stop the lies.

I totally agree Everald. We need words of caring, compassion,kindness, and encouragement particularly from our so called leaders. I have heard very little of this.😢

The #Bondi massacre was horrible but even worse is the way Australia has torn itself apart via a huge and disgusting blame game.

Sussan Ley earns $440,000 per year but reckons she gets anxious every time before she receives her power bill. Oh spare me the bullshit Sussan. Ian

When I was pregnant, I tried to eat well, stay healthy & protect myself from undue stress because the baby could be affected. For this reason, ICE had a long time policy not to detain pregnant people. But now they are detaining them, brutalizing them & denying medical attention. #ICELawlessness

I bought a hybrid a year ago and find my driving has changed and I use the battery more and the fuel less. Love it.

In May 2025 Deputy Premier Jarrod Bleijie used his planning minister powers to refuse the Moonlight Range Wind Farm. It's now been revealed the community concern aspect of his decision was based on fabricated submissions. At best it's ministerial incompetence. At worst it's one for the CCC. #qldpol

It does take a while to join the world again. Best wishes.😊

I think it’s been about 11 months since I posted anything here on BlueSky. My husband died suddenly just before Christmas. It’s been a tough year and I’m only just starting to interact with the world. Here’s Venice from late October’s solo trip🧡 #Venice #travel #photography #sunset #Italy

Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

The top three things Jesus was on about were feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and welcoming the stranger. Rich men have convinced so-called Christians to starve the hungry, gut health care, and deport the stranger to enrich themselves. It’s astoundingly anti-Christ.

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

Keep strong. So many on your side.😊

Monday evening in Kyiv. No power – scheduled rolling outages. Generators are singing outside. What are their songs about? Oh, these songs! They’re all about Ukrainian strength.
