When they tell you to kneel, stand up.
SHOUT OUT to Mike Luckovich: one of the all-time great political cartoonists. 🏆 With corporate media doing such a poor job in these most perilous of times, his work is more vital than ever! THANK YOU @mluckovich.bsky.social!!! 🙏
Did you see how Apple, Amazon Walmart and other big companies are refunding the billions of dollars they got back from the federal tariff settlement to their customers, who ultimately bore the cost of higher prices? Yea, me neither.
Good playback- lying is endemic & embedded in the Republicans - was then is more so now.
I Remember, Hope you do….
So it turns out the Democrats left out a chapter of the autopsy which contained the following about what the party is really about-and why consultants lose to stay wealthy. “the sway of an operative class that had become “generationally wealthy off politics” while steering Democratic strategy.” 👇
In response to the Trumps litigation accusing Capitol One of debanking /closing 300 Trump accounts, they responded "closed Plaintiffs’ accounts for anti-money laundering (“AML”) reasons. " Corrupt then, corrupt now. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...
Capital One says it closed Trump Organization's accounts after anti-money laundering probe
The disclosure marks the first time a bank has formally tied money laundering concerns to the president's family business.

Just a small point to the USA. You are now ruled by a fascist racist dictator
Millions of americans in major cities got out on the streets , protests so strong that it toppled the Tump dictatorship - could have. Apologies - protests from 8 years ago when Apathy didn't rule. It could have, but like the vote, the compliant stayed at home. Where are the mass protests now?
FFS Americans this man fights back - grow some & get out on the streets & fight for the freedom you are losing. Support him.
I’ve never seen this. This fall, may a thousand Zohran Mamdanis bloom. He-and others like him, give me a small bit of hope. bsky.app/profile/marc...
The Hubble space telescope takes a new photo of Uranus.
every time I read this it reminds me that these kinds of people live amongst us WE ARE NOT THE SAME....I would never support something so vile.
I would like to understand why - and also understand why they do nothing about the fascist oppression now
As a voting citizen of the USA for over half a century, the most insane & disgusting thing to me about Americans is the fact that even though national elections can be won by a handful of votes, 70 to 80 million Americans don't bother to vote at all while complaining about how bad our government is.
...read all the comments - Free and fair midterms? - yeh , sure.
The state has found some registered Texas voters were wrongly flagged as potential noncitizens. The secretary of state told counties to immediately reinstate any Texans who were removed from the voter roll despite showing DPS proof of citizenship. bit.ly/4yOsWzH
We are watching, in real time, the biggest fuck-up by any president in the history of the United States of America.
Concentration camps - 1933: first created by German Nazi's to imprison, suppress, torture & kill opponents and people of race that didn't fit the Nazi doctrine. 2026: USA No other words needed.
"A concentration camp, in its most basic definition, is a place where a targeted civilian population, not necessarily accused of a crime, is detained and at least some of their basic rights are suspended," writes @jwashing.bsky.social. "That’s precisely what’s happening in the United States today."
“Many, many people died of Covid after I left office because while I was in office I let it rage throughout the population with my lies, neglect, and incompetence! Thank you for your attention to this matter.”
" the US joined North Korea and Russia in voting against extending Volker Turk's term as UN High Commissioner for Human Rights." Turk is outspoken on the war in Iran, Ukraine & civilian oppression. There it is - America sides with dictatorships who have no respect for Human rights. True colors.
...& yet the Orange corrupt dictator is supporting Coal & trashing wind and solar energy, bribed by his Oil and Coal magnates. No surprises there then.
California just became the first major grid system on the planet to generate more than 50% of its electricity from solar across an entire month.
Fauci spent decades serving presidents of both parties and helping protect public health. Trump spent a pandemic lying, freelancing, and turning medicine into a loyalty test. One man did the work. The other just needed someone to blame.
Dear Donarrhea- Thought you might enjoy a few photos of Kaitlin Collins (the superb journalist who intimidates you on a routine basis)... SMILING. #AccountabilityIsComing11/3rd
