The United States has basically been reduced to a child sex trafficking death cult with everyone robbing from the public till. #Amerikkka
When they tell you who they are .... just fucking believe them. Oh yeah and then throw their asses in jail and throw away the key.
Gabe Ortíz@tusk81.bsky.social · 2mo agoHoffman “was first arrested and charged in 2022 for repeated instances of sexual abuse with a 10-year-old boy, a first-degree felony, and was facing life without parole.” Corrupt Ken Paxton is endangering children.
Most transparent and theft and grift. Blatantly robbing the American treasury, illegal stock trading .... But hey who could have predicted this in 2016. #Amerikkka
Greg Sargent@gregsargent.bsky.social · 2mo ago"Open governments win arguments and self-correct. Closed governments make bad decisions and then cover them up. Does that sound like any administration you might know?" It's not easy to dig out the deeper principles at stake inside bureaucratic arcana, but @donmoyn.bsky.social is good at it:
I guess they are at the find out stage of FAFO.
George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸@gtconway.bsky.social · 3mo agoThe implosion of the GOP is only beginning. And it will accelerate. But we can't just sit by and idly watch. We need to keep pushing for accountability—and ultimately for impeachment and removal of the president and his cabinet (of which the vice president is a member).
Oh look a couple white bros . Whodda thunk.
Scott Dworkin@dworkin.bsky.social · 3mo agoThe Trump regime actually let two guys with zero government experience use ChatGPT to cancel $100M in grants—including Holocaust education. A federal judge just humiliated them, called it unconstitutional, and reversed every single cut. Read how she did it: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/a-federal-...
This is not NEWs. Everyone knew (or if they had two brain cells to rub together should have known) this in 2016 and yet here we fucking are.
Acyn@acyn.bsky.social · 3mo agoTrump on Iran War: Reporter: What extent are Americans’ financial situation motivating you to make a deal? Trump: Not even a little bit. I don't think about Americans’ financial situation
Remember Canadians ... Orban was a friend of Stephen Harper and the gang at the Conservative Party of Canada.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3mo ago"In the US, especially among the elites that ought to be leaders, people are hiding because of what Trump can do to them. They're complying in advance, not standing up because they’re afraid. But once there are too many of you for the govt to do bad stuff to each of you, it’s almost like immunity."
When this administration isn't raping women it's covering up their murders.
Adam Klasfeld@klasfeldreports.com · 3mo agoSeveral white supremacists were convicted of crimes related to Charlottesville, including Heather Heyer's murderer. A dozen were held civilly liable. To call this a "hoax" because an anti-hate watchdog had eyes on the organizers is delusional racist propaganda from the White House.
Name me a country that "accidentally" kills more journalists than Israel..
Al Jazeera English@aljazeera.com · 4mo agoThis is a breaking news story.
This has all the makings of a trojan horse. I wouldn't go near her with a 10 foot barge pole. Not sure what Carney thinks she's going to add to a L(l)iberal party
Andrea Woo@andreawoo.bsky.social · 4mo agoNew: Conservative MP Marilyn Gladu crosses floor to join Mark Carney's Liberals, becoming fifth to join party since November www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...
Our guys obsessed with ancient Sparta lack every single quality associated with ancient Spartans. Which is why this was over before it started. Zach Rabiroff got there wittily a week ago.
Zach Rabiroff@zachrabiroff.com · 5mo ago"Bunch of guys obsessed with Ancient Sparta can't beat the Persians at sea" was probably one of the known-knowns, come to think of it.
Gross and extremely disappointing. I stand with the courageous women who not only stood up for the rights of farm workers in the United States, but who now stand up for the rights of women and girls to be free from sexualized abuse of any kind from anyone.
DrDinD.bsky.social@drdind.bsky.social · 5mo agoAs a progressive, I denounce this behavior from Cesar Chavez. We can rename the streets and California holiday honoring him to one honoring Delores Huerta who worked in the movement as a great leader and was assaulted by Chavez. Your turn to do the same for Trump, Right Wing America.
Fact Post - millionaires have no business telling others what quality of basic nutrition they should be eating. Millionaires are the reason why the costs of basic necessities are so inflated.
FactPost@factpostnews.bsky.social · 5mo agoRFK Jr. suggests Americans can more easily afford groceries if they start eating liver instead of beef: "Most of the cheap cuts of meat are very inexpensive. ... You can buy liver or the cheap cuts."

This is what happens when people who really are dumb think they are smart.
404 Media@404media.co · 5mo agoQuote from Advait Paliwal, Brown dropout and co-creator of Einstein: “I think about horses. They used to pull carriages, but when cars came around, I'd argue horses became a lot more free... It would be weird if horses revolted and said ‘no, I want to pull carriages, this is my purpose in life.’”
Nothing that Nazis aren't more afraid of than ideas.....
Jeff Sharlet@jeffsharlet.bsky.social · 6mo agoNH state house passes "CHARLIE Act," which bans teaching, I kid you not, "critical consciousness" & "prohibited world-views," such as that queer people exist, or that slavery involved race, or, implicitly, that the Nazis murdered Jews based on identity. newhampshirebulletin.com/2026/02/19/h...
Imagine going to work everyday and putting so much energy in to getting more racists to vote for me....
Jason Markusoff@markusoff.bsky.social · 6mo agoDanielle Smith confirms that if Alberta separatism petition drive succeeds, the independence referendum will be on October 19 ballot too. So expect (at least) 10 ballot measures coming this fall. YOU LIKE DEMOCRACY? WHY DON'T YOU TRY SMOKING AN ENTIRE PACK OF DEMOCRACY?
Why are conservatives so bad at being human....
Luke LeBrun@lukelebrun.ca · 6mo agoOh, Danielle Smith is defending McAllister's comments: "I can tell you that Western society is based on the Socratic Judeo Christian tradition,” said Smith. “If you go back and look about why it is we have the society we do, there’s no question that there are some foundational influences to that”
More proof that while you can take the boy out of the apartheid nation you can't take the apartheid nation out of the boy. #FacistFuckhead
Mrs. Betty Bowers@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social · 6mo agoThis odious white supremacist needs to learn some history. Not so long ago, it was common to see "Irish need not apply" in job listings in the United States. You know, the same type of pernicious prejudice that Elon exhibits regularly.
Wonder where these f-heads get enough brain stem activity to evenl lift their lungs.
The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social · 6mo agoY’all.
Just remember Canadians - this is one of Stephen Harper's pals in the International "Democratic" Union. Remember when conservatives speaking about democracy and freedoms they believe they have the right to determine to whom those words apply.
The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · 6mo agoHungarian prosecutors brought charges against Budapest Mayor Gergely Karácsony for permitting an LGBTQ+ pride march to go ahead last year despite a ban imposed by Prime Minister Viktor Orban.
If you're MAGA you can carry as many weapons as you like - you can also kill as many women and racialized people as you like ... but if you're not we will murder you and blame it on you even though you're following "the law" and the constitutions. Fuck off!!
