Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Interesting how basic math is hard for the (checks notes) economics guy. /s 010
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Of course there's no money for healthcare or free school lunches while we inch closer to $40T in gov debt, but I'm glad that $464M DHS spent for no-bid jets is being put to good use... Oh, wait... www.nytimes.com/2026/08/13/u...nytimes.comHomeland Security Paid $464 Million for Airplanes. Then It Parked Them. (Gift Article)The agency used a no-bid contract to buy 10 used jets, saying they were urgently needed for deportation flights. But the fleet has largely sat idle for months. 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 12/08/2026She's great... Congrats to the people of Minnesota on having an amazing candidate to rally behind and get elected this November. 030
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Funny how Obama didn't need missiles and barbed wire for the 333 rounds of golf he played during his entire 8 years in office. By contrast, Trump has golfed 166 times in just the first year and a half of his 2nd term... 050
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 05/08/2026If it was Biden or Harris, I bet they'd find a way... 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 02/07/2026So, what - exactly - did we go to war for in Iran? Or is that semantics and doesn't count as a "war?" 010
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 02/07/2026"strong economic growth" is now +57K? Funny how that wasn't the case just 2 years ago... 010
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 25/06/2026105 years, eh? So, how many years should Trump and those in his orbit get for their thousands of insider trades over the last year and a half? Not saying Muggleston is innocent, but the two-tier application of "justice" in our country is beyond pale... 042
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 18/06/2026And how much of that $300bn will be funneled into companies he and his donors are involved with? 100%? 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 02/06/2026Ahh... glad to see she's been rehabilitated and is starting the next chapter of her life off on the right foot. /s 010
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 02/06/2026I can believe he never actually met him, but to say " I don't know who he is" stretches the truth a bit too far... 010
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 02/06/2026Perfect example of "smart" people trying to sound profound when talking about a basic concept (ie: infant mortality) but ending up sounding like a complete and utter racist. 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 02/06/2026This is adorable. If the whole "Mayor of NYC" thing doesn't work out, you're more than welcome as mayor of my little town here in the depths of South Jersey... Really is refreshing to see someone in office who actually acts like an honest-to-goodness human being. 000

Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 27/05/2026Of course, everyone in that video will say "as soon as the war is over" hasn't happened yet. 010
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 20/05/2026Why does it feel like Polis is crossing over and will soon be brunching with Fetterman? 090
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 15/05/2026The @washingtonpost.com can suck it. I'd rather have my tax dollars used for diapers and anything that helps people any day of the week as opposed to ballrooms, arches and payouts to criminals. Seriously, this is the most tone deaf video they could have possibly made in 2026. 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 09/05/2026@livenationconcerts.bsky.social Hey! At Freedom Mortgage Pavilion in Camden. You really should liwt tickets in the middle of section 202 as partially obstructed, unless staring at a cameraman's back the whole show is just an added bonus no one told me about... 030
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 07/05/2026For the amount we've spent for him to play golf over the past year, I expected so much more... 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 27/04/2026I hope Dana Bash also asks Trump why he doesn't back down on his "heated rhetoric" whenever he calls reporters: horrible, terrible, dishonest, fake, piggy, etc. Isn't that creating an environment where he's encouraging his supporters to take action against a class of people? 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 24/04/2026As usual, obviously dumb decision made by one of the supposed smartest people in the world: why wouldn't these have 4 doors? You're limiting your customers right off the bat. 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 22/04/2026Cancelled my subscription in November of 2024 and have never looked back. Democracy is dying in darkness because Jeff Bezos and whoever is left @washingtonpost.com refuse to shine a light on it. 010

Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 18/04/2026How? How is it still that HIGH? What 39% of humans wake up, see anything going on and say "that's exactly what I voted for... Great work...?" 010
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 11/04/2026The part about party affiliation would be interesting. Bet a bunch of Republicans would find themselves voting Dem if they actually knew what each side was focused on and how it impacted their day-to-day lives. 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 11/04/2026 👆 This x100. Whoever gets in office next will have 2 years to right the ship before voters with insanely short attention spans drift back to Republicans because "nothing is getting done." 010
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 27/03/2026So, that sounds like an awfully long list of exceptions he's "ok" with, so that means he's "ok" with mail-in voting, right? /s 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 26/03/2026Funny how the guy who "hates" mail-in ballots so much can't manage to waddle to the nearest polling location to vote in-person... 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 26/03/2026Why do "they" want this shutdown? How about so ICE agents have to follow the same rules as every other law enforcement officer in the United States? Sounds reasonable and simple enough Uncle Fester... 012
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 19/03/2026I love how "stays calm" is somehow headline worthy. If that was even a question, he's not qualified for the role. 060
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 03/03/2026Every time he says it won't cost us one cent and the money's "donated," I get so annoyed that no one asks what else that money could have been used for? 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 17/02/2026These people never seem to know anything about anything. I work 50+ hours a week, am raising two teenage daughters and I've still had time to read stories about their affair for 5+ years. Love that I'm apparently more looped in than the POTUS... 020
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 03/02/2026Alex, I'll take things that didn't really happen for $1000. 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 03/02/2026They want to pull "their aid?" Haven't these idiots seen the upside-down ROI "blue states" already get on every dollar sent to the feds? Markwayne Mullin should be thanking every blue state for every dollar contributed to the rest of "red" America... 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 02/02/2026Who would have thought that would even need to be said... 010
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 30/01/2026Every... single... congressman should be forced to listen to every word these people have to say. Otherwise, it truly is taxation without representation from people who just want to insulate themselves from their constituents. 010

Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 30/01/2026Isn't it great that he's suing for more than he's paid in actual taxes his whole life. 270
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 29/01/2026Yes, "the Dems" - which you are one of, so that should be a "we" - should ask for all of that and more. Use all your leverage to ask for everything. Now is not the time to pull punches and, even if ICE is "funded for 6 years," voting "yes" for their budget sends the wrong msg. 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 25/01/2026If only our country's "ICE threat" could be measured in hours, not months or years to come. 281 days until the midterm elections with primaries just months away. We cannot afford to vote for any candidates who continue to fund a rogue government agency. 040
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 23/01/2026It's like they think we'll all just magically forget about slavery. 010
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 21/01/2026I hate seeing "U.S. has lost its way" when the vast majority of Americans do not agree with the actions of this administration. 010
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 21/01/2026They should stop picking up the pieces weeks later and start doing their job to proactively prevent the administration from going off the rails in the first place. 060

Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 14/01/2026I never thought we'd have a president simultaneously say "we have the hottest country in the world" while also being a climate change denying, coal advocate. Unfortunately, he'll be dead long before feeling how hot it will actually get... 000
Andy Gradel @andygradel.bsky.social · 14/01/2026👆 This. Full stop. Anyone who votes to fund DHS in this midst of this shitshow has committed a dereliction of duty to the Constitution. 030
