The Medicaid cuts aren’t scheduled to hit until after midterms, so it can be blamed on a later administration. Meanwhile, 2 years will pass, and they’ll crow “See? We protected your Medicaid!” We have two years to continue squawking about the upcoming devastation, so that the proper blame is laid!

So when does the moral arc start curving towards justice? I was told it would happen.

If you have to pass a bill in the wee hours, you know it’s vile. The GOP is an evil empire, you should be ashamed to vote for them. If you voted to “own the libs”, it’s even worse. Your childish glee over it will harm millions, including yourselves. Way to go maga, you “win” again. But we all lose.

I have no doubt that not just their jobs weren’t threatened if they didn’t go along. Another sad, disgusting day for our country. I’m no longer proud to be American. But I’d love to be again. And I won’t be silent against this tyranny. 2/2

I’m not a pessimist, I’m a realist. The current GOP *always* does the wrong thing. Many were hopeful that this ugly bill wouldn’t pass, but I knew better. Their spines are long gone, because they are locked into the orange cult. 1/2

Prediction-Eventually one of the orange goons will literally threaten the lives of the holdouts, and the ugly thing will pass. What’s our response? I think revolution is the one thing left. How that looks remains to be seen.

If anything, those of us who spent last year warning everyone just how dangerous it would be to allow him back into office, were UNDER reacting.

A remarkable message You need to read this.

A truly remarkable message from Liz Cheney. THIS is what the people want and need from Dem leadership. open.substack.com/pub/robertre...

Vance is an empty husk of a man. He stands for nothing on his own, and only parrots the thoughts of others. His views come from whoever will give him money, or proximity to power.

This is why I am a pacifist.

The sleeper cell warnings are probably just to give cover to his ICE goons. Now they can be even more despicable, with no accountability. “Look over there, sleeper cells!” Meanwhile they’re snatching people off the street and throwing them into unmarked vans.

The United States never has enough money to keep people alive at home but always has enough money to kill people overseas.

Thanks for “seeing” me!

I came into Bluesky with such high hopes. I have thousands of followers, and interact with others. I post thoughtful content on a regular basis, but no one sees my posts here! About ready to give up. How on earth does a person get seen on this site without an algorithm?

I knew damn well that there would be painful consequences to his pitiful little birthday parade.

Well, he did it. He started a war with Iran, by bombing 3 nuclear sites, with ZERO approval from Congress. He started a fricking war! Didn’t he promise not to? Wasn’t that one of the reasons maga gave for voting for him, no more wars? THIS IS WHY WE’RE SO ANGRY WITH YOU! We knew he’d do this. Ugh!!!

Some courts are standing up to him, stopping some of his madman policies. But here’s the thing, note my use of the word SOME. They’re flooding the zone, knowing that many of them will stick, even if some are stopped. His authoritarian regime is already here. 😡

Do you know how racist you sound if you are disparaging a celebration of the end of slavery?

Not only that, but they seized her while she was following the rules, reporting for her immigration hearing!

Sure, but which news agency will bother telling the truth in this era? None.

Last night, they put an early lid on him for the day. When he goes dark, I always assume that they’re pumping him full of drugs, to keep his poor health at bay temporarily. It will surely catch up to his long-abused body at some point.

Pass the word, 4th of July would be a great day for another protest! Time to take the flag back from maga, and show them what real patriotism is. 🇺🇸

My deep gratitude to all of you who protested against our rotted pumpkin “president”. Finally some hope, after all of the horrible things that have happened since he took office! If we continue to rise against him and his fascist buddies, we can eventually defeat them. Keep going, keep speaking out!

His pitiful commie birthday parade was a complete bust, barely anyone showed up, all while costing the taxpayers MILLIONS. I love this for him! It shows his real weakness and lack of support. I hope the MASSIVE protests against him today really gnaw at him. He deserves ALL the grief.

There are no kings leading the United States, and there never will be.
