Was her name Tulsi?

A vet, agreeing to such an asinine comment? Did you join up to vociferously support whoever was in office at the time? Do you think no one should join the military until Trump leaves office?

that they would begin systematically slaughtering people because they had nowhere to send them. We’re 2/3 of the way to the American Holocaust. There is a secret police force that is increasingly emboldened to detain whomever they please and due process is straining. Keep organizing. 2/2

There are concentration camps in America. In “The Destruction of the European Jews”, Raul Hilberg details how the initial concentration camps were built, much like this, hastily and simply for the purpose of holding people until they could be put on to their final place. It was only later 1/2

Thank you so much. I got his fundraising text and was annoyed it did not include this information. I’ve been wondering but refuse to open any links to find out 😆

Comeback from what? California seems to be doing great

They were not wise pundits. But Van Hollen did show true leadership and courage.

Thank you. Just seemed like obvious information to include the article that they did not. I was being lazy in not just googling it myself, thanks for indulging me.

The one piece of information I wanted was what the partisan composition of the house will be once this rep is sworn in.

Oh, yeah, it’s nice to see people leaning into engagement

if you’re very worried about being declared an enemy of the state posting on Bluesky, or really anywhere, is an odd choice

Between seizing ballots in Georgia, trying to leverage Minnesota to turn over its sensitive voter data, and political prosecutions, the DOJ is laying the groundwork to subvert the 2026 elections. I created Democracy Docket for times like this. Help it grow by supporting it now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

I think expecting average Americans to operate like we’re already in a techno fascist surveillance state (yes.. I know) is unrealistic. The moment seems to call for simple massing and loudness. Sharing to the IG story is probably the right move in that case 🤷‍♂️

it is beautiful how we are having another moment of Bluesky unity. everybody basking in the glow of how Ilhan Omar was very visibly gonna punch that dude in the mouth

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

People who say this are clearly speaking aspirationally about a shared American creed they hold dear. “Have you heard of the Trail of Tears?” is not a very helpful response, because they probably have and the priority right now is moral opposition to fascism and not fake-educating each other.

Still have electoral power via voting that has to be organized for upcoming elections, which is my takeaway from OP.

I've heard others say it and I'm really feeling it too. We should definitely embrace the American flag as part of the resistance to fascism and the authoritarian government. It must stand as a symbol of decency and democracy, not what the GOP is trying to rebrand it as.

Eric Swalwell answering a question on how the next governor of California will protect Californians from ICE.

“They're going to lose their immunity. They're not going to be able to drive. I will take your driver's license. Good luck walking to work, assholes.”

They’re not saying the politicians shouldn’t read the whole bill, they’re saying, and I think they’re right based on your reading of their skeets, that you wouldn’t have understood their vote against the resolution or abstention and would’ve fallen for propaganda that they voted against protesters.

The statement from Jerome Powell just says they’ve received a grand jury subpoena, which if I’m understanding it correctly means they have not yet secured an indictment. With this DOJ’s track record, they may not be able to secure an indictment at all.

Did they get an indictment?

Abolishing ICE is the bare minimum.

We need to dismantle DHS. We need restitution. And we need trials.

🔥 AL GORE: “We already have way too many subservient cowards in Congress, the last thing we need is to send another one (Van Epps 🤖) — you can make tomorrow the turning point for our country by getting out and voting for Rep. @aftynbehn.bsky.social .” #TN7

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.

This isn’t controversial.

A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.
