This is where we are now. McCarthyism has evolved into a general label for aggressive politically motivated accusation that damage character without proper evidence. Thousands lost their jobs. Government workers faced aggressive accusations of treason or disloyalty without proof. Prove me wrong!

Born and raised in Miami Beach, moved to California and retired in Oregon. I am a full blooded Democrat and am appalled by what is going on in our Country. Us old folks needs to respect and support the amazing bench of young Democratic fighters
REPUBLICANS ARE TRYING TO BRING BACK THE J0E McCarthy era. McCarthyism is a period of intense political repression and fear in the U.S. It was marked by unsupported accusations and aggressive interrogations . The term has evolved to mean reckless politically motivated investigations
REPUBLICANS ARE REINTRODUCING THE JOE McCARTHY ERA!! This era was marked by aggressive investigations and accusations against individuals suspected of communist affiliations, significantly impacting American politics and society.

Joe McCarthy era, often referred to as McCarthyism, was a period in the early 1950s characterized by intense anti-communist sentiment in the United States, led by Senator Joseph McCarthy.
Bluesky is no better than X or Truth Social anymore. Full of antisemitism, hate and intolerance. Mandani is foolish to make such a generic statement about Bibi. N.Y has more Jews than any other state in the union and he is shitting on his constituents. N.Y is home to 25% of the Jewish population.
It is time to get rid of Schumer and Jeffries NOW. Replace them with fighters like A.O.C or Raskin in the house and Ossoff in the Senate. Both are younger, smarter and far more charismatic than are current leaders. We need fighters who will take no prisoners. We need VISIONARIES NOT STATUS QUO!
ANYBODY ELSE WORRIED ABOUT ELON MUST BACK JUST IN TIME FOR THE MIDTERMs. Just like last time he was brought back to fuck with the midterms and give Trump the win. Elon gave us Trump by cheating. Are we going to allow this again?Dems in Congress must be prepared and ready to fight for all os us.
Trump will NOT help anyone but himself. BUT SURE, REPUBLICANS KEEP ON BELIEVING HE GIVES A CRAP ABOUT YOU. Trump is a carnival barker who lucky for him his "followers" care more about "owning the Libs" (they don't) than he cares about ANY of his constituents. "
Recently, Republican leaders, including House Speaker Mike Johnson, have pledged to protect Trump and his allies from scrutiny, indicating a broader political strategy to shield the administration from oversight. Mike Johnson is a disgrace
.BTW tourism to the U.S. dropped by 4 million visitors costing the U.S. economy about 8 BILLON IN LOST TRAVELER SPENDING. CANADIAN TOURISTS INJECT AN AVERAGE OF 20 BILLION DOLLARS INTO THE U.S. ECONOMY.International tourism supports roughly 140 thousand American. jobs. ARE WE WINNING YET.
BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WRITE. YAHOO REJECTED A COMMENT I MADE THAT WAS UNFAVORABLE TO TRUMP SO YAHOO TOOK IT DOWN. MY COMMENT WAS A COMPARISON OF WHAT BIDEN ACCOMPLISHED VS. TRUMPS NON ACCOMPLISHMENTS. I DID USE THE LETTERS B.S. TO DESCRIBE SOMETHING TRUMP SAID. CENSORING IS ALIVE AND WELL ON YAHOO!!
I believe that part of what is destroying our Country is the rise of the so called "INFLUENCERS". These are people who are key board warriors. They have NO medical background, they are NOT qualified to give ANY type of advice; yet idiots follow them without a second thought. Dumbing down of U.S.A.
Says the man who was a "Democrat" for 30 years and admitted he became a republican because they will "believe anything" Over the years Trump has been a Republican, a Democrat, a independent and even a stint with the "Reform Party". He has no loyalty to God, Country or a Party. He's a con man.
His cabinet has made over 700 Billion dollars since his return to office. The 700 billion does not include what Trump has earned as President or his family. We are being robbed blind ;but as long as the 1% are enriching themselves we're good I guess. REPUBLICANS ARE SHAMELESS AND CORRUPT AS HELL!!
WELL, WELL, WELL...MUSK IS BACK JUST IN TIME FOR THE MIDTERMS!! Must be a total coincidence!! NOT

He is running this Country like a Mob Boss. Shame on the feckless Republicans especially Mike Johnson. We the people must demand immediate changes in how Congress works. Congress should be required to put all their earned monies through stock trades in a blind trust, NO STOCK TRADES WHILE SERVING.
I am really afraid for our Country now. Today Tennessee announced they will be pulling the book "Roots" by Alex Hailey from all Tennessee libraries. This book was published in 1976 and has been read by millions and studied in both high school and college. WE ARE LEAVING IN A ERA OF AUTOCRACY, SHAME
My question to all the young and hispanic men who voted for Trump because God Knows you were not going to vote for Gasp!, a black woman. Is your life better today because you voted for a grifter, a racist tyrant and a man who doesn't give a rats ass about you or your family? Shame on you all!
Why does Bluesky limit the amount of words we can post? Their limit is 300 letters which amounts to about to about a small paragraph! I enjoy Bluesky but I fell it's becoming more and more restrictive. To many post are taken down by the Bluesky moderators with no explanation as to why.
I wish II could feel sorry for the morons who follow him blindly, the idiots who donate to a supposed billionaire. He's a carnival barker who sells worthless products that never get delivered ( i.e Trump phones), sneakers , God Bless USA bibles, fragrances, watches , guitars and even COFFEE PODS.
this administration is all about hate and division. Trump and his nazi administration have poisoned the mind of so many who don't have an original thought. As a Jewish person I have always wondered how a person like Hitler came to be and how so many blindly followed him. were wiling to die for him.
He's scared to death of the midterms. Ignore everything the demented, angry, soulless man in the Whitehouse. Dems most vote in droves. They are doing everything they can to "rig" the mid terms so they can continue their assault on our liberties and voting rights. There are more of us than them..VOTE
Yes, this is another staged event. Every time his poll numbers bottom another "fake shooting" shooting happens.
Why is it that EVERY TIME Trumps POLL NUMBERS bottom out some "life threatening" event happens. No president has been "shot at" three times. I don't believe for one second that this wasn't staged.
But it's ok that Trump receives his money from Christian Nationalist groups...I get it..OKAY FOR THEE BUT NOT FOR ME! Antisemitism is alive and well on Bluesky! The Israeli Palestinian conflict has been active for OVER A CENTURY which intensified around the establishment of Israel as a state.

Since Barri Weiss collided with Trump to DESTROY what he called "Liberal" leaning stations such as NBC, MSNBC, CBS we are NOT getting fair and balanced news. We are getting 'RIGHT WING" news only .She is a FAR right wing nut job who was brought in for one reason; to destroy "fair and balanced" news
Putin has owned Trump and his family for over 40 years. Not only has Putin enriched Trump; he's provided him with two wives!! Trump has been compromised since the early 70's. Republicans will rue the day the put all faith and trust in a man who despises and ridicules them daily; they are feckless
