Sunday's a great day to explore @carlchri.bsky.social 's new Starter Pack! As always, it contains an interesting combo of #democracy lovers, myself included, LOL. TY Carl! 💙💙👋 Check them out 🔎, follow ✅, and repost ♻️. Oh, and have a lovely Sunday! ☀️💙 go.bsky.app/N3PwS8p

More and more institutions apparently seem to cave to a mental health patient allowed to roam free and terrorize the globe. The Smithsonian has removed tRump from its impeachment exhibit. And so the jolly dismantling of a once great nation continues ... what's next? www.youtube.com/watch?v=toRg...

TGIF! A special TY 🙏 to the lovely @jules1212.bsky.social 👋💙 @carlchri.bsky.social @sassy0210.bsky.social @luca-migo.bsky.social @mojochefjeff.bsky.social @sassysister27.bsky.social @journeyled1.bsky.social @albinobadguy.bsky.social Let's party, but not w/ cowards, traitors & bootlickers!

Oh nooo, shocker, Mr. Art of the Steal has generously extended the tariff deadline for a week?? We call it what it is: TACO. Also: We love you, Canada, elbows up! You must be doing something right, or you wouldn't incur his wrath 💪🇨🇦💙 www.thedailybeast.com/trump-tacos-...

Looks like tRump now has his very own Roland Freisler (head of Hitler's 'supreme court', known for political show trials & responsible for many death sentences of critics & opponents). Well done, you stupid RepubliKKKans, you must be really proud of yourselves! www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkNe...

Only five years? www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Oh look, there still are people left who are 'shocked' by tRump's behavior! Kidding aside, it's understandable that Virginia Giuffre's siblings are shocked to hear their sister being described as an 'object' that one can steal. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Somebody with creative and musical talent wasted no time, edited footage from the Scotland protests, and put together a powerful anti-tRump song, to let the orange buffoon know how the Scots feel about him. 🤘

America beware: The Irish are pissed about the tRump tariffs and plan to retaliate! Irish Riverdance is coming home 🤣🤣😂 TY for the comic relief @foilarmsandhog.bsky.social (When are you coming back to 🦋?) www.youtube.com/shorts/2H3eM...

TY @sassy0210.bsky.social 💙 for mentioning me in your list (not Bondi-approved). 👇 🦋💙 Happy Wednesday! @anarchy101.bsky.social @ennievegan.bsky.social @mike-lowe.bsky.social @hoaxter61.bsky.social @annettebeebe.bsky.social @ulvensoye8.bsky.social @neelm.bsky.social @jules1212.bsky.social 🤗👋

This just in on my German news app: Part of the US-EU "deal" is that US cars will incur no tariffs to Europe. Hurray! No offense, but who would want to buy such a gas guzzler, have you seen the price for gas over here? Perhaps nostalgic US-expats? I'm in Berlin, I take public transport, so, whatev.

I guess, now's a good time to wave 'Hello' 👋 to @carlchri.bsky.social and say "Thank You" 🙏 for ALWAYS finding a spot for me in his Starter Packs, among so many amazing 🦋 peeps. It's truly appreciated, my friend. 💙🥁 Like 💙 Repost ♻️ Follow ✅ go.bsky.app/2GThmED

This is an old Ted Talk that aged VERY well. Meant to upload this for a while now - today's finally the day: "Why do so many incompetent men become leaders?" www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeAE...

Great video footage from the anti-tRump protest in Scotland. The tenor was: "We're anti-tRump and pro-American democracy." www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yhr...

Campaigner Anita Badhani from the 'Stop Trump Coalition': "Why do American and Scottish taxpayers have to foot the bill for tRump's security detail for his private visit to Scotland so he can promote his golf course?" youtu.be/7iU4YMjczFo?...

I haven't finished reading, but just a few paragraphs in & I'm thinking, "OMG, is MAGA so unimaginative they need to follow Hitler's path to authoritarianism step-by-step?!" But first & foremost, it juxtaposes tRump/Powell vs. Hitler/Luther. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

The stress response: Fight or Flight. Emigration to Europe or elsewhere to escape the political climate in the U.S. ... Sure, if you can afford to. But not everybody has the financial means. youtu.be/-1SjXjH8hjk?...

Quick follow-up to my old post: Even the Daily Show (aka @jordanklepper.bsky.social) has picked up on crazy ass Jennings and dedicated a whole segment on his MAGA transformation. Okay, body-shaming is big no-no, but it looks as if he got leaner AND meaner ... www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktu9...

Thx for the shout-out @dcombes.bsky.social! And I'm saying 'Hi' to: @annettebeebe.bsky.social @sassy0210.bsky.social 👋💙 @softtail65.bsky.social 🎶 @hollychessman.bsky.social @jules1212.bsky.social 👋 @carlchri.bsky.social @jeansand.bsky.social Just because! 🦋💙 Yo, magats: It's decision time!

These days, it's the small things that cheer me up ... Alina Habba replaced as interim U.S. attorney of NJ www.youtube.com/shorts/c-HQw...

Another lovely friend, @krassotkin.bsky.social assembled (?) his very first Starter Pack, and I'm part of that 🦋 pack! Thanks so much, Sasha 🙏, I so appreciate you ✌️💙💙 #strongertogether go.bsky.app/R7gcZxa

@simonmarksfsn.bsky.social's weekly round-up in U.S. news hits all the major topics: Texas floodings, measles outbreak, fallout from the Epstein list, and lastly tRump's remarks to the President of Liberia. Simon, I hope they let you back in after your vacation! 🙏😂 www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FfF...

Had to put this up here: John Fugelsang's facial expression is representative for all of us when we hear a tRump fan gush over Dear Leader (here Scott Jenning who's gone full MAGA and can't remember that he used to be more aligned with the former conservative Republican view) 😂

The difference between Fetterman and tRump: Fetterman used to be actually quite cool. What pills do they have him on?
