Chris Geidner@chrisgeidner.bsky.social · 2d agoNEW: Three examples of how Trump's lawlessness is spreading — and how the other branches are failing. Todd Blanche is confirmed as attorney general, Stephen Miller is backing a new birthright citizenship executive order, and Judge Emily Marks won't dismiss the SPLC indictment.

I don’t have it in me to deal w/gaslighters who want to re-litigate the pandemic. Or argue about what happened. They aren’t going to listen to anyone.
The thing about RFK is that he was born into a bubble and spent decades and decades in that bubble and as a result he is very bad at dealing with the real world.
I had to choose between the kitties’ health care and my own. My premium almost quadrupled. I was going to just let it go, but then I developed an alarming new click in my recently split sternum. If you can help a little bit, here’s some links. #CatsOfBluesky linktr.ee/RainSurname

Please stop advancing these trump judges. They can't even answer that Biden won in 2020. MI, PA, you clearly need better democratic senators.
