@smerconish.bsky.social Michael, Michael, Michael. You totally lost me this morning. Neither my husband nor I follow sports & have no idea who the people are in your poll question. An absolute waste of time.

Hegseth, Waltz and company texting war plans to a reporter on signal is just the tip of the iceberg. This whole administration is full of incompetent, inexperienced, and unqualified clowns. Our national security is compromised in ways we’re just beginning to understand.

One thing being overlooked in the coverage of SignalGate is the danger to our informants/operatives within the Houthi organization. Intelligence about the targets had to come from someone close to the target. This breach has put our operatives in danger. @cnn.com @housedemocrats.bsky.social

Once again the Melon Felon is only concerned with his brand. He's Nero fiddling while our nation burns

Thank you!!!!

If DOGE has found so much "waste & fraud", where are the charges & indictments for fraud? Could it be the only waste & fraud is being committed by DOGE itself?

Due to a host of recent health problems, I've been away from BlueSky for a while. Just needed to hibernate until I regained my strength. I'm just as committed as ever to our Democracy & it's preservation. I'm back & I'm pissed.

Count me in, ladies!! 💙💙

The 2026 ELECTION has already started! Taking over the House and Senate is the only way to stop Trump's craziness. Please start organizing now, and publicize every Trump failure. Make the US Capitol blue!

Crockett: I am tired of the white tears. When you compare me to Marjorie Taylor Greene or me to Lauren Boebert, there is no comparison. So the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so, so much harder

We fall for it every time. Tr_mp is constantly distracting us with shiny objects hoping we won't notice the dismantling of our democracy.

Notice the difference?

After claiming he doesn't know who Laura Loomer is and merely took a photo with her at a book event, Kash Patel is asked if he's familiar with Stew Peters, an antisemitic podcast host. Patel: "Not off the top of my head." Durbin: "You made eight separate appearances on his podcast..."

This article details why Governor Cooper must defeat Tillis in 2026. Trump’s power obsession snuffed every ounce of decency in Tillis. The power obsession precludes any thought for average Americans; it destroys America. Once identified, we will fight and defeat it!

When the president, on every issue, says that he will decide what he is allowed to do under the Constitution and nobody else, every appointee and member of his party obeys because they are either corrupt or afraid of him, and SCOTUS has given him immunity, you have an autocracy.

A reminder of what we could have had. My husband says it's too late, that America is lost. I HAVE to believe we can still get back on track.

These guidelines will help you to avoid obeying in advance. #DemVoice1 #DemsUnited #StrongerTogether 💙

Dr. Fauci has been one of my heroes since the early days of HIV/AIDS research back in the '80's. He's a national treasure.

Unfortunately, it is the will of the uninformed voters. They love the uneducated voters.

Trump just plunged the country into chaos, illegally freezing aid to millions—Medicaid portals went down in all 50 states. Meanwhile, Kristi Noem is cosplaying as ICE, Milley is under attack, and Caroline Kennedy torches RFK Jr. Today’s insanity, all in one place:

Every time the man does something horrendous, I think that this may be the straw that breaks the camel's back. But it's one damned thing after another. I can barely keep up with the continuous rips to the fabric of our democracy.

Bishop Budde should inspire all of us, regardless of religious beliefs. I don't follow her brand of religion, but she has earned my respect. She spoke truth to power. If she can do it, so can we.

I post what I like. I educate myself on the issues & wade in accordingly. If I'm wrong, I'll admit it. But what's with all the moderation & block lists all of a sudden?

We can never forget or become complacent to this criminal administration. Tr_mp is throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks. It's up to us to challenge the illegality at every turn. Stay focused.

These self-identified Christians are celebrating the separation of parents from their children and spouses from one another; cheering families being torn apart, lives being violently uprooted, and human beings being terrorized at school, work, and church. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/if-youre-a...

I would love to see him impeached again (& convicted this time.) But I'm afraid it's too early. First we have to take back the House & Senate in 2026. Until then, we need to obstruct him with as many legal challenges as possible.

We're already inundated with the Orange Menace's idiotic EOs. Trying not to go down every rabbit hole. Instead, trying to focus my attention on what I can do while giving myself permission to rest & reset.

This is intolerable! We have never been a country where one had to show their "papers".

But his followers can march with Nazi & Confederate Battle flags into the Capitol. His day of reckoning cannot come soon enough. We're only on day 3, folks. It's going to be an agonizing next 4 years. Keep our eyes & efforts on 2026.

Of course, Trump bans two flags that stand for love, tolerance, and inclusion, not two flags that stand for hate, intolerance, and racism. Because the hate flags are wildly popular with his fans.

In a world of Pete Hegseths, be a Rev. Mariann Budde.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

The Bishop had the courage to speak truth to power. Let her example inspire us.

I stayed away from all broadcast media today & just checked my feed here on BlueSky. I'm grieving. America as we know it has died. I hope we can find the determination to breathe on the embers and revive her. The promise of America is worth fighting for. I'm willing, are you?
