Old, overweight, complex, artistic, musical, kitchen proficient, utterly demented (in a fun way), balding/greying, disabled but not entirely dead from the neck down gay bear, nature lover and glutton. He rocks. He rolls. He falls over…He needs a hug! 😉 🏳️🌈🐻🇬🇧
I would love to see this happen! Trump would have meltdown after meltdown. He’d probably cease giving personal press briefings…and that might eventually result in a largely passive Press actually reporting what’s happening rather than some pro-Trump nonsense fed to them by Trump himself.

This would amount to a complete capitulation from the US. Literally no way to even attempt to spin this as a win.
Yeah, “BUT”. Trump has more blood on his hands than we might even imagine: service men and women fighting his illegal war, innocent civilians, the alleged killing of child victims on Epstein Island. Truthfully, there’s no way of knowing just how far the trail of blood extends. Trump is a monster.

Ok then, so it seems pretty clear that the Senate isn’t just compromised but is comfortable with American citizens knowing that the Senate is compromised. Dear Americans, you must - MUST - get out and vote to halt and reverse such corruption right across the board, from Trump to Senate and beyond.
Marc Elias@marcelias.bsky.social · 3h agoThe Senate has confirmed nearly 60 Trump-nominated election deniers to the judiciary. The attorneys who prosecuted the Jan. 6, 2021 rioters want them to stop. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Er…what a weird way to phrase it: “…ban a thing called gasoline”. It’s like he’s just landed on Earth then sent a message back home to other aliens who wouldn’t know what gasoline is. Has any doctor examined Trump to see if he’s from this planet? I’m asking because nobody talks like that!
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 54m agoTrump is making stuff up: "The radical left wants to ban a thing called gasoline"
Does anybody else’s skin immediately start to crawl whenever this appalling excuse for a human being opens his disgusting mouth?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 59m agoTrump: "You see it in the blue states run by Democrats -- everything is filthy dirty all the time. The cities stink The sidewalks are loaded w/horrible stuff. I don't want to use the term bc my wife hates it. She hates it when I imitate no men in women's sports, when I do the weightlifter."
Let’s be clear: we all already knew that, with Trump and the current Administration, the lunatics had taken over the American “asylum”, but this latest targeting of a longtime ally👇 would point to a mindset where America has declared itself Enemy of the World.

It’s all rather pathetic really. Trump has no real merit, honour or valour so he does what he always does: inserts himself via AI into some noble scene with real heroes then posts and posts and posts on his own sad little social media platform, “Truth” Social. What a loser!

It’s as simple as this: if you’re a millionaire/billionaire living off the toil of a workforce, Trump has your back. If you’re part of that hardworking workforce, you don’t merit Trump’s attention or concern - you’re not rich enough for him so you and your safety mean absolutely nothing to him.
Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social · 5h agoTrump’s OSHA is rolling back rules that mandate rest breaks and access to water and shade to protect workers from extreme heat on the job. Remember: Trump doesn’t care about workers. He never has and never will.

No news show should be booking RFK Jr. without an eject button. He’s spent years spreading dangerous misinformation with real-world consequences, then pretending none of it was his fault.

These people are mad at Dr. Fauci because he told them to wear a mask during a deadly pandemic.
The White House has stated that SNAP was “failing its mission” to provide temporary aid to those in need, yet the White House has consistently failed to provide any kind of alternative assistance. And so, over 4 million people are suffering. Many of the 4 million plus people are children. 😡

Mitch McConnell’s communications director’s silence and smirk speak volumes. If he were fine, or even improving, she’d just say so. There’s no way this man is coming back.
Ooh, now this could be very interesting. I hope it goes ahead and launches because if there was ever a time for bravery and honesty in news and current affairs, that time is now.

I’d probably amend this to “word of the year and a half”, but you all get the idea, I’m sure.
It truth, you could count up every corrupt, self-serving, unconstitutional thing Trump & the Administration has done (or tried to do) and it all boils down to this. 👇
