Used to fancy myself an independent, but realize I cannot afford to think that way. I'm blue. I did not vote for him in 2016, not in 2020 not 2024 either. I believe that our country is headed in the wrong direction and it makes me sad.

"The charges were filed without a grand jury indictment, an unusual move that Comey's attorneys argue makes the prosecution legally invalid." Not surprised the DOJ would do something "legally invalid". 🙄 www.scrippsnews.com/us-news/crim...

Today I made an unannounced visit to ICE’s facility in Scarborough, Maine. What I heard was unacceptable: no body cameras, no training, and no accountability. Johan Guerrero should be alive. Congress must act. Abolish ICE. End qualified immunity.

I don't live in Maine or anywhere close, so my question might be a dumb one. But, why did Janet Mills drop out so quickly? I read one article that said lack of funding or was it because everyone, Bernie, AOC and the like, were all gung-ho for Platner?

Someone tell Mike Johnson, the annoying and dishonest puritanical pixie, that Social Security and Medicare are called "entitlements" because the recipients are ENTITLED to receive those benefits after paying the government for them with each paycheck over the decades.

Hoodlum 🇺🇸@nothoodlum.bsky.social

Mike Johnson says Republicans want to cut Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security, calling them “entitlements” that need to be fixed. Of course, they plan to do it after next year’s midterm elections.
