I’m gay. I’m progressive. I’m an atheist. I’m anti-fascist. And I’m an ex-pat American living in Portugal. These facts are related.

This should be the attitude of EVERY Dem in Congress. No exceptions. Such an amazing and powerful role model for women and girls right here. Shut it Maga at every turn. Don't show them to be part of civilized society. No tolerance for intolerance. They choose this

Do Not Obey. We are Democracy.@zangerliberia.bsky.social

More of this. Hold these mfers accountable any way we can. No peace for them anywhere. Deny them service.

NYT gets it wrong. They expanded presidential power to fire regulators. This fetid sack of meat will be gone before long. This means in 2029, good by to all of Trump’s appointees.

Please tell me this is AI. Warnock? Schiff? Klobuchar? Posing in your suits with people who are protecting child rapists? Who are stealing a woman’s right to choose? Threatening free elections? Questioning my marriage? This is a time for rebellion, not cos-play? You are all dead to me in 2028.

Senator Amy Klobuchar@klobuchar.senate.gov

Happy National Seersucker Day! Great to join my colleagues from both sides of the aisle in kicking off summer with this time-honored tradition.

@nytimes.com Sitting Senator, candidate for Governor says Muslim elected official is enemy “inside the gates.” This is not normal. COVER THIS!

Not headline news. No real fuss by Democratic leaders. No calls to censure. No pushback. No questions asked of GOP leadership by the press. Just totally accepted anti-Muslim bigotry across the board.

Replying to @audrelawdamercy.blacksky.app

"Kirk told his listeners that Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson of the Supreme Court “is what your country looks like on critical race theory,” that former Vice President Kamala Harris was “the jive speaking spokesperson of equity,” and that the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. “was awful.”"

Reviving “her emails”, dumping a tranche of FBI lies about MLK Jr, accusing Obama of treason - all to distract from Epstein. It’s like someone in Trump World woke up and asked, “how can I best activate the Democratic base?” Thanks, geniuses.

Can you hit repost? Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want you to know the name of her opponent but will try every desperate attempt to save her seat. My name is Shawn Harris. I am a Democrat, husband, father, Retired Brigadier General, farmer, and I'm running against MTG. Can you share and follow me?

To everyone who told me to “calm down” in 2016 - The sociopathic sexual predator business fraud felon you put back in the office he tried to steal just stood in the White House & said that he wants to send American citizens to concentration camps in El Salvador. So, fuck you.

Hasn’t this guy played Charlie Brown to McConnell’s Lucy enough to know the deal? Do not cooperate, do not collaborate, do not capitulate. This is not Reagan/O’Neill, this is Hitler/Hindenburg.

The despicable charade at the White House today was pure theater. Trump and Vance had every intention of provoking Zelenskyy to provide a rationale to end negotiations, which were never legitimate. The US will exit NATO and ally itself with Vladamir Putin. 1/2

2/2 Here are questions that would have been inconceivable a decade ago. Will the US military defy law and tradition to enforce domestic political objectives? Will the US military fight NATO?

You still good with this “negotiating” @mcuban.bsky.social ?

Ryan Goodman@rgoodlaw.bsky.social

"U.S. negotiators pressing Kyiv for access to Ukraine's critical minerals have raised the possibility of cutting the country's access to Elon Musk's vital Starlink satellite internet system, three sources familiar with the matter told Reuters."

Really American A stunning new video of Donald Trump getting booed relentlessly at the Super Bowl just was released. It’d be a shame if it went viral.😎😎😎

One of many benefits to living in Portugal, I wake up and enjoy 6 hours of normal life - have a coffee, play tennis, do some shopping, catch up on Purdue basketball - before Felonious Trump and Apartheid Boy wake up and get to their nazifcation of America.

Where are the people who wouldn’t support Harris because Biden wasn’t tough enough on Israel? Trump is swinging the door open with his eyes on waterfront property. Idiots!

Every attacker in these pictures are free and forgiven by Trump. Americans turned their backs on us. I don't know if I can ever forgive us for this. Forgiveness or not... I'll keep fighting because it's what's right.

When a photo completely captures a moment.

Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com

As a casual non-white observer, it’s so bizarre to see folks work so hard to try to prove their superiority over someone like me when they could spend that time actually bettering their own lives and…I don’t know, be happy instead of miserable fucks.
