Heeeyyyy. So we know Trump wants control over #UnionStation because that’s how a huge number of people access DC for protests, right?

Of course, Republicans don't want to own up to their inhumane f*ckups that worsened the severity of the impact of the floods in Texas, but they do want to offer their usual: "thoughts and prayers." The governor of TX even said prayers “could have been the reason why water stopped rising." Srsly?
Nothing To Do But Pray, Say Exact Republicans Who Could Have F*cking Done Something

Fact Check: The Bill does not give FOTUS the authority to delay or cxl elections
FACT FOCUS: Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill' does not let him delay or cancel elections
That's false. There is nothing in the legislation that would allow Trump, or any future president, to stop an election from going forward.

Why the FUCK am I getting text messages from @democrats.org @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov about GEORGE CLOONEY and his HOT TAKE about whatever the fuck. SHUT UP. No one cares what George Clooney thinks! I have gotten no fewer than 3 texts this week. LITERALLY DO ANYTHING BUT THIS
I guess @democrats.org heard “stop texting me with salacious clickbait asking for money” and thought “you know what these people need today? No fewer than THREE salacious begging texts before 11AM PST!”
“It's still unclear whether the company — which reported a staggering $400 million loss in 2024, while only netting a pitiful $3.6 million revenue — will realize the mass sale of millions of shares. But even just the suggestion appears to have spooked investors.” futurism.com/truth-social...
Pete Hegseth is a liar. These are war plans. End of story. Hegseth is unfit for the job and should resign or be fired immediately.
Here’s my ask of you today: I want you to engage with EVERY article/post you see about Signalgate. Like, comment, share. Every one. The reason why the media kept talking about Hillary’s emails was because every story & post about it got massive engagement. Sound good?
Do NOT take the bait Trump is tossing out right now. Stay on Signalgate.
lol probably just “password” and “MAGArules#1”
Brian Tyler Cohen@briantylercohen.bsky.social · 2y agoBreaking: Top Trump officials’ private data and passwords have surfaced online, including Pete Hegseth, Mike Waltz, and Tulsi Gabbard. This data could potentially be used by America’s enemies to hack into the unsecured Signal chat where they discussed war plans.
Here’s a question I asked one of my friends, who usually resorts to the fallacy of Whataboutism, to deal with information he doesn’t like: If this regime were running a disinformation campaign, how could you tell if you were being manipulated by the narrative, or if you were able to see through it?
Your reminder that the news is not reporting on anything that does not support the narrative that the country loves Yam Tits and Melon Head. There are protests everywhere. Tesla dealerships are on fire. Republicans refuse to host town halls because they're getting yelled at by veterans.
Breaking: A federal judge just blocked Trump’s order banning transgender Americans from serving in the military.
Trump's Order on Transgender Troop Ban Blocked by Federal Judge
Transgender servicemembers convinced a federal D.C. judge to halt the Trump administration executive order that bans them from the military.

Oh nothing. Just having a wee cry at my desk over the #nationalparks LinkedIn post about women’s uniforms over the decades and how the mentor I was working with a few months ago to apply to NPS jobs said I was born to “wear the green and gray.” Guess that won’t be a thing now.

Rogue Citizen One@roguecitizenone.bsky.social · 2y agoChuck Schumer has a book tour starting this week. It would be a damn shame if people showed up to let him know how they feel about his capitulation on the short-term spending bill passed by the Senate Friday afternoon. @schumer.senate.gov
