Mike’s Club

Hello All! Mike’s Club is a thrift store in McAlester, Oklahoma, but we are so much more! We sell donated items, but we give away as much as we sell. Our business is designed to make people stronger. This pic is our mission statement.

I disavow everything except tacos!

I just realized, what I want from the coming elections boils down to just two things: Affordability and Accountability.

#Oklahoma friends, I’m voting. What are your thoughts on these people: State Treasurer Cindy Byrd Kiefer Perry Supreme Court John Kane Travis Jett Dana Kuehn Richard Darby Court of Criminal Appeals Robert Hudson Court of Civil Appeals Stacie Hixon Jane Wiseman Deborah Barnes James Huber

It just occurred to me… we haven’t heard a word about Mitch McConnell in weeks. What up with dat?

Let’s start with this message: "ANY president would have been better than Trump!"

I would like to see the word "legacy" banned from American politics. Anyone who thinks a politician's legacy is even remotely important should be disqualified from holding any elected position.

Excellent! If more Democrats use campaign money to actually help people, that might be even more effective than campaign ads.

The entire Republican Party in a nutshell. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

In America 2.0 (post-Trump) news agencies would be required to operate independently from their ownership, and mergers, at any level, would be prohibited. News must be competitive.

I think it should be a law that, if a president says something, paid government employees can’t be used to explain what he actually meant.

As I scroll through Threads today, I see, like every day, post after post about how bad the current GOP controlled government is. We all agree Democrats must regain control. But what I don’t see is, what are we going to do differently? What things are we going to do to bring costs down?

The Republican party controls the House, the Senate, and the White House. AND they control the Supreme Court. The ARE the federal government. So I have to ask: Are they UNABLE to solve our current cost of living crisis, or are they UNWILLING? It can only be one or the other.

I really don’t want him to die in office. There is still so much prosecution to be done.

At what point will someone in authority stand up and say "this poses an exceptionally grave threat to national security"?

Can the US Federal government extradite an American to a US state to face criminal charges? A way to get around a Trump pardon?

I want Democrats to make it clear that, once we regain control of this government, any "third country" that persecuted or otherwise harmed any deportee that they accepted, that country will face penalties.

Every Democrat candidate needs to talk more about the direct connection between corruption and affordability.

For all the talk about "criminal illegal aliens", I’ll bet that, if you could study 1,000 undocumented immigrants, and 1,000 native born MAGA men, you’d find the immigrants to have far, far fewer criminal records than the native born men.

Sen Schmitt's goofiness is being called a "botched gotcha". I vote that we start calling these things a "botcha"

You know, I am undeniably a patriotic American (and a veteran to boot!), but it would be funny as hell if we went to war against an Amazon army and got our Hegseth-led asses kicked!

Fuck that! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Fuck that! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

They told you what they would do. If you voted Republican, you voted for higher gas prices. If you voted Republican, you voted for higher food prices. If you voted Republican, you voted for ICE. If you voted Republican, you voted for corruption. If you voted Republican, you voted for measles.

@support.bsky.team whenever I click on a post in my feed, and then hit the back arrow to return to my feed, the app always jumps to the top of my feed, rather than just returning to my last scroll position. This is frustrating, and I constantly have to re-find where I left off. How can I fix this?

I’m sorry for your loss. But you can’t pretend you didn’t know who he is, and what he told you he was going to do.

I’ve finally figured out who Natalie Harp reminds me of: She’s Grima Wormtongue from Lord of the Rings! Whispering sweet nothings into the Mad King’s ear.

I have an idea: If you make a demonstrably false statement, without immediate correction, you are banned from any program on that network for a month. I think that would be fair.

He talks nonstop about the power he has. I never hear him talk about the responsibility and duty he has. I don’t think he knows about that part.

Democrats need to declare that those rules will be reinstated once they regain control of government. Make the cost of retooling too high.

Let’s talk about what government can do to make living cost less. Let’s start with food. What are some of the factors that contribute to the cost of food, and what can we do to reduce their impact?

The Democrat's have plans for investigations after the midterms. One thing I am not hearing is any talk of an investigation into Congress itself. How Congress and the Supreme Court enabled an authoritarian regime by surrendering their checks and balances duty. @cnn.com

What is the possible point of having this guy on?

The key phrase here is “damaged the agency’s ability to fulfill its mission”. We need a law that allows anyone to challenge whether a government action is in the best interest of the country. If the action can’t be supported, it must be overturned.

I’m hearing these promises now: - Affordable Healthcare - Lower Grocery Costs - Lower Energy Costs - Lower Housing Costs - Affordable Childcare But I need details! How are you planning to make these happen? What are your ideas? I want more than empty promises.

“Information integrity is the mother of all battles” is one of the most important statements I’ve heard in a long time. It should be a major part of the Democratic Party platform. @mariaressa.bsky.social

Since it’s true, and has always been well known, why have we still not built a system to prevent it? Why can’t we design a system of government that, while not preventing a fascist from being elected, can still prevent fascist actions once in office?

When I hear one of the new wave candidates promise “we have your back” or “we’re gonna make life better for you”, I want to hear more than just a campaign promise. I want to hear your plans. What ideas and strategies do you have for making life better for Americans? I support you, but I want more.

If these public lands are sold or given to developers, we should reacquire them under imminent domain as soon as the next administration comes to power. And require the developers to restore the land to its original condition at their own expense.

@cyndimunsonok.bsky.social Cyndi, if you became governor tomorrow, what actions would you take immediately to start improving the lives of all Oklahomans? I’d like to hear things that both Democrats and Republicans can get behind.

I think, for all political appointees, we should require a second “reconfirmation” vote 6 months after their confirmation. They shouldn’t be permanent until they have passed both.

Question for all Democrats: if Trump’s administration were replaced today by a Democrat government, what steps would we take to turn the country around? I’m not talking about a revenge tour. What exact things would we do to lower prices, restore the rule of law, and rebuild international relations?
