MAGA: I love Trump because he means what he says! So he wants Iran to take out California cities? MAGA: That's not what he meant!
Things are about to get very interesting in RI. Blaz will have to figure out real quick what kind of Speaker he is. Will he embrace his more liberal side and work with the new Providence leadership, or will he go over to his dark establishment side and work with the more conservative Senate?

Is there *anything* more Donald Trump than sticking up for men who drug and gang rape women *solely* because he's still angry that the Special Prosecutor in their case successfully found him to be a felon many times over?
Once again, Brett Smiley is being a raggedy bitch. This is truly vile and disgusting. Call his office and DEMAND #JusticeForJasmine

Cost of extending ACA subsidies: $30 billion/year Cost of Trump's Iran War: $43 billion in roughly seven months (and that's a low estimate) It's not a question of what we can afford. It's a question of priorities.
Ed Sheeran is proof you can be worth hundreds of millions of dollars — and still be an indentured servant to wealthy supremacists.
Important: the USPS rule that SCOTUS blocked tonight was Trump’s big plan to control and restrict mail voting. But a separate policy remains in place: USPS is no longer postmarking mail as soon it gets it, which is hugely important for deadlines. So people must mail back with plenty of time.
In an Intense Election Year, New Post Office Rules Could Trip Up Voter Registration - Bolts
A change in how mail is postmarked could lead some voters to miss key deadlines, including voter registration. Advocates worry the people most affected will be those already facing voting barriers.

I honestly didn't think I could love @davidmoralespvd.bsky.social any more than I already did, but this interview changed my mind. It's the most comprehensive I've seen, and I learned new things. Clearly, he had already decided to run, but so what!
State Rep. David Morales is Not Concerned About Smiley's Big Fundraising Edge
The 26-year-old progressive is considering a run for mayor of Providence

⚠️ Be careful with VoteSafe .org. It is NOT an official voting website. It’s tied to Elon Musk’s America PAC and collects a lot of personal information from people who use it. Before you hand over your name, address, phone number, email and voter information, know who you’re giving it to.
Now that he's a lame duck, and no longer has to pretend to care about the homeless, how long before Smiley gets back to bulldozing them out of existence?
A Providence for All means standing with working people, not corporate interests, and making sure everyone who works in our city can afford to live, thrive, and build a future here.

Of all the disgusting mailers Smiley has sent out, the one I received today, trying desperately to score political points off a mass shooting is probably the most disgusting. He should really be ashamed to have gone this low.
I think a 9 to 5/Clue double feature is in order for this weekend.
Providence deserves a Mayor who will show up for our neighbors. Listen to my friend Monique: Vote David Morales!
It is beyond time for a change!
David Morales@davidmoralespvd.bsky.social · 2mo agoCatching up on local news this morning. 🗞️ Anyone else interested in some change for our city? We have 21 days until the primary election and just 2 days until early voting starts! Make sure your voice is heard this election so that together, we can build a #ProvidenceForAll. 🦋
Providence Mayor Brett Smiley can’t run on his record and win. His record is one of serving only the rich and powerful, and stomping on the poor and vulnerable. So he scaremongers the public about socialism and crime. It’s an old political tactic because it works. And we will fall for it.
@johnmarion.bsky.social should the Providence Police substation on Chalkstone Ave. have a Smiley for Mayor sign up?
