I don’t know much, but I do know this: After Trump destroys our economy, enriches himself, shatters communities, fuels hatred from sea to shining sea, makes healthcare inaccessible, weakens democracy & our standing in the world, with their dying breaths Republicans will gasp, “Joe Biden did this.”

SCOOP: The Department of Health and Human Services has been using the term “sex-rejecting procedures” to describe gender-affirming care for transgender and nonbinary individuals. The term is not clinical or medical. It comes from a Christian Right group. www.importantcontext.news/p/hhs-is-usi...

A newborn in Minneapolis hadn’t eaten for a day and a half. ICE agents took her mother when she went to work, trying to make money for diapers. Her 16-year-old and Bri, a local mother of two, saved that baby's life. @chabeli.bsky.social tells their story

A noteworthy takeaway from tonight's Texas result is that the Republicans spent a metric truckload of money on this race. They spent millions more than the Democrats. The loss itself aside, this is a gigantic, flashing warning sign for the GOP's finances.

The detention of witnesses and seizure of their phones is an extraordinary violation of every fucking Amendment you can name: bsky.app/profile/timd...

Minnesota's Republican House Speaker Lisa Demuth made a Facebook post critical of an anti-ICE protest at a church, and got ratioed by her own daughter in the comments www.facebook.com/LisaforMN/po...

At the rate we're going, Larry Ellison is going to have Paramount Pictures put out a prestige drama about the valiant officers who tracked down Anne Frank

As an average American consumer who watches some television advertising and buys drinks at Dunkin, I have seen the rise in the promotion of protein, from every type of food company. And all I can think is, "Those protein farts on the long family car rides are going to break up families."

I don't like the death squads

There is no statute of limitations for murder.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

Rumor going around town that ICE is going to be targeting local schools during drop offs and pick ups. Had to have a serious conversation with other parents about strategies to keep our kids and their parents safe. People are crying, terrified. But at least we’re free from terrorism

For what it’s worth, Gov. Walz opened his press conference right now recognizing Renee Good “and her wife.”

It's so fucking convenient that they get to "fear for their lives" anytime they want to absolve themselves of anything and when we actually fear for our lives because of them and do anything a scared person would do it's justification for our death.

TRYING TO FLIP” THE BOAT MEANS THE BOAT WAS CAPSIZED AND THEY WERE SHIPWRECKED IN THE WATER.

Loving Gavin Newsom.

Tottenham can’t even dribble to themselves effectively, much less pass to other players.

NYT (pre-election): Vance is right, Haitians are straining resources in this Ohio town NYT (post-election): oh, forcing the Haitians to leave is crashing the economy of this Ohio town

Not true. I see you're a luxury watch dealer. I'm also interested in watches. Let me show you how free and easy migration has allowed you to earn a living. 🧵

“I’ve seen some inmates just sit there and cry. Some cry all day." The conditions abducted migrants are subjected to at Miami Federal Detention Center are so abhorrent men staged a protest by flooding a toilet. Authorities responded by assaulting them with rubber bullets and flash-bang grenades.

NEW: We obtained DHS data that shows the US knew only 32 of the 238 Venezuelans deported to a prison in El Salvador in March were convicted of US crimes, only 6 of those violent. Trump called them “savages,” “monsters” and "the worst of the worst.” www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Hiccup & Charlie just chilling on a lazy Saturday evening.

This administration is filled with criminally stupid people. The United States is going into decline because the stupid people won.

For the first time in five years, student loan borrowers whose payments are long overdue could face stiff consequences, and that puts a disproportionate number of women at further financial risk.

@kristinestone.bsky.social Happy to hear you are on Bluesky!

But I heard OPSEC was clean?

I feel the need to repeat that Slotkin got 23,847 fewer votes in Michigan than Kamala Harris did.

A US citizen with a learning disability who has just suffered a medical emergency asks a CBP officer for directions outside the emergency room. He ends up detained in an icebox for ten days and has the assistant secretary of DHS lying about him to the public at large. popular.info/p/us-citizen...

I am just a simple girl who doesn’t know much. But, I just finished watching Sinners and I know it is the best movie about the African American experience that has ever been made. It is a masterpiece that will be studied in film school for decades.

"I didn't vote for" you did. Sorry. You did. Should have listened to the woke libtards instead of your roided out imaginary friends who told you kids were pooping in kitty litter at school

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

It seems pretty obvious to me that our fascist president wants Canada and Greenland so that the United States and Russia can have this combined land mass linking us together, separated only by the Arctic Ocean. I despise him and his stupid evil plans with every bone in my body.

On Election Night Nov. 5, 2024, Sen. Wicker told me “call me any time” after I interviewed him about tariffs and other topics. I have contacted his office multiple times since then and only got a response today after I mentioned his comment in an email.

History shows that stripping the rights of one disfavored group is always just pretext for a larger aim of stripping the rights of others.

For comparison, Atlanta's prior forecast was +2.3%.
