In this fraught moment in America, @hcrichardson.bsky.social quotes the one military expert who was inarguably also an expert on civilian life: Allied Forces leader, Army general and 34th president of the United States Dwight D. Eisenhower. What are we doing? open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...
I can’t love a country that is ruled by Donald Trump. Chest bump to Robert De Niro. Dude dropped the tea!!
Trump's big, ugly budget megabill gave ICE more cops than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries. No one in America is safe from Trump's deadly police state.
In less than a week, ICE shot and killed Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and Joan Sebastian Guerrero. Two families are now without fathers. Congress must disband ICE. Otherwise, these killings will continue.

Odd that Lindsay Graham had problems with his heart and Donald Trump has problems with his brain—two organs they showed no signs of having.
We were sold an image of Graham Platner as s working class oyster farmer. But the reality is that he went to The Hotchkiss School in Connecticut. Hotchkiss is one of the most elite prep schools in the country. Tuition is currently $79,350 for boarding students and $67,450 for day students.
The art of the steal is on. Mob boss at it again huh?? ☎️WE THE PEOPLE ARE AWAKE, ALERT and READY: 24/7/always 🙏💙💙❤️❤️🤍🤍🇺🇸🗽⚖️
Jack Hopkins-The Original@therealjackhopkins.bsky.social · 4w agoEvery election needs a referee… someone neutral, making sure the game is fair. Yesterday, Trump fired the referee. Here's what that actually means for the midterms… in plain English. www.jackhopkinsnow.com
Did you know Elon Musk is responsible for the largest data theft in history that also has led to the unnecessary deaths of 600K+ children (is it murder?) while then becoming the first trillionaire welfare queen in history for about 5 days. youtu.be/O8HEO9elfvo?...

We are living in a 2nd gilded age. We must end it to save our democracy.
Great analysis of Russian war of aggression.
Jason Jay Smart@jjsmart.bsky.social · 2mo ago🔥 Putin promised to conquer Kyiv in three days. But now, his generals are being liquidated in Moscow. However, Putin isn't in a rage because the war has come home. 👉 Rather, he is panicking because the war is now hunting its initiator. youtu.be/XQTb4peBSOc
The 70s Guy@stevenw888.bsky.social · 2mo agoHedy Lamarr, a famous Hollywood actress from the 1940s, was also a remarkable inventor. She co-invented a frequency-hopping system during World War II to prevent enemies from intercepting torpedoes. This invention laid the groundwork for today's Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth technologies. #HedyLamarr

Senator Andy Kim@kim.senate.gov · 2mo agoAt around 5am, after voting all night, Senate Republicans voted to give ICE $70 BILLION more in your taxpayer dollars. No reforms or changes made. We can still fight this.
Hmmm....verrrry interesting. Wonder where they'll plant him for his big dirt nap. He definitely doesn't deserve Arlington and it'll probably have to be in a non disclosed site so grave robbers dont dig him up to drive a stake thru his heart. Maybe next to Ivana? She's got a headstone now😏😏😏

Happy Pride Month. If you're a gay man, please remember your power. People often think that gay men are innately fashionable, which means if you wear some stupid shit for long enough, straight people, including homophobes, will copy you and then you can laugh at them.
