You are America…. The single most powerful word in our democracy is the word 'We.'' “We The People.''We Shall Overcome.''Yes We Can.' That word is owned by no one.It belongs to everyone. Oh, what a glorious task we are given to continually try to improve this great nation of ours.

I was wondering why Susan Collins was being so quiet. Hmmm has she been planning this last minute reveal of bad behavior on Platners part, too late for platner to investigate? Sounds like the usual republican dirty tricks. Sow doubt at the 11th hour @grahamformaine.bsky.social

NewsInsideUkraine t.me/c/1966917236... The future Prime Minister of Hungary, Peter Madjar, after the victory of the "Tisza" party in the parliamentary elections, announced that he plans to unblock the frozen EU funds and restore the system of checks and balances in the country.

I don't know why this is so hard for some people to grasp. If we extend our use of fossil gas, rather than going all-out for grid batteries, heat pumps and induction hobs, we extend our dependence on *foreign* sources of gas, regardless of whether we also use the UK's last remaining reserves. 🧵

Trump idolises Putin and indirectly offers the lives of the US military to Putin. Recall that during his first term Trump learned Putin had placed a bounty on US soldiers and he said nothing. Now MAGA Republicans give Putin’s Duma politicians a tour of Congress. Trump is a traitor in Putin’s pocket.

Trump is touting the no tax on tips provision in his budget bill. But many tipped workers won't benefit because their earnings are so low. And the provision expires in 2028. The estate tax cuts that primarily benefit the rich? Those were made permanent. Funny how that works.

Unstable. Senile. Antichrist. He’s run amok. Get the hook.

If sanity=prosocial behavior. And insanity=antisocial behavior, Trump is insane. He buddies with Putin. 2 world powers. his comfort zone, world view. He’s flailing, doesn’t know what to do. So Putin’s telling him what to do. Sadly, Putin wants to destroy us. So Trump is both insane and a traitor.

He has defiled and profaned the presidency, the White House, our country.

Hey I’m not alone: Ahab + Trump share notable parallels highlighted in literary analyses. 1 personal vendettas 2 charismatic manipulator 3 narrative of grievance 4 scariest -defy warnings, rejects pragmatic counsel. Trump ignoredour generals who warned about the Straits of Hormuz.

Somehow Trump is reminding me of Ahab. Anyone else notice this???? Scholars have analyzed Ahab as an authoritarian —manipulates, intimidates, and overpowers…Ahab reprograms the crew’s sense of loyalty and destiny so that their lives become extensions of his own monomania.

An easy way to counter Trump’s crime push is sitting in the Democrats’ back pocket. Imagine if the Democratic National Committee held weekly events with mayors across the country on what they are doing to reduce crime. TY @eugendeblaas.bsky.social
