🔥 Dr. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social : “America can do glorious things, but to love 🇺🇸 isn’t just to dress up in some colors and pretend everything’s fine. To love 🇺🇸 is to will 🇺🇸 to do the hard work of being better… we can’t control the past 250 years, what we CAN do is build the next 250.”
Trump is a draft-dodging coward. This is stolen valor.

Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media
It's too late for Cornyn and Tillis to save their legacy. They will be remembered as Trump-enablers. Watch Stuart Stevenson on MSNOW
If you show up to Bluesky without following anyone, you'll be treated to a series of posts about art, music, and dogs. If you show up to X without following anyone, you'll be bombarded with right-wing conspiracies and white supremacist slop. It's weird which one is seen as a "political bubble"

Whitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "
This would bring down any presidency but Trump's. The press simply shrugs and moves on. It's maddening.
Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 2d agoThat headline is underselling it. HUNDREDS of trump accounts were closed by Capital One for anti-money laundering REASONS. Associated Press is tiptoeing around words a bit
ICC CHIEF PROSECUTOR: “Oppose Israel and we will go after your family — You have been warned. Rubio, McConnell sent me a letter… what’s liberating is accepting mortality.”
MAGAGOP is looting the economy, knowing full well it will collapse. They're betting it won't, though, until a Democrat is in office and that they'll get the blame. And they're right. We can stop them this November if we put enough Ds in Congress to impeach and REMOVE Trump AND Vance.
In the fall of '24, when Biden was president and Harris was running, there were pro-Palestinian/anti-Israel protests and parades every weekend in downtown Omaha. The moment the election was over, they stopped. So, what happened? To be clear: I condemn Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza.
Every single vote to confirm #ToddBlanche is a vote to hide the #EpsteinFiles and protect pedophiles.
This is such complete and utter bullshit on the part of Thom Tillis and John Cornyn. Giving the Trump crime family immunity from tax audits remains as corrupt as anything we’ve ever seen in this country. Todd Blanche should be impeached, not confirmed.
Josh Gerstein@joshgerstein.bsky.social · 2d agoJUST IN: Tillis confirms he is on board with Cornyn to vote yes on Blanche for AG, after Blanche renounces Anti-Weaponization Fund in writing & asserts that the waiver of any past taxes due is limited to POTUS, Don Jr., Eric & Trump Org.

Trump will be remembered as the biggest loser in American history.

Every vote to confirm Todd Blanche as attorney general is a vote to continue the coverup of the Epstein Files.
While you were over here trying to figure out how you were going to cover the rent and food—this guy was over there using $5.1 million in taxpayer money YOU paid into the system to cover these statues in 23 karat gold. Yeah, he did that.
your son-in-law broke your infant granddaughter's collarbone. have any thoughts about that?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 5d agoSen. Moreno claims Fauci "killed seniors" and calls him a "smug SOB"
Also note: there are two OTHER stories about GOP male abusiveness that are making news. There's the claims of INSANE abuse by Max Miller, House Rep from OH, who stands accused of abusing Bernie Moreno's daughter. www.signorile.com/p/is-rep-max...
Is Rep. Max Miller threatening to out Sen. Bernie Moreno for having sex with men?
Moreno won’t call for the resignation of Miller, his son-in-law, accused by Moreno’s daughter of domestic abuse. Is it MAGA loyalty, or is it Miller’s threat to uncover something about the senator?
