I am damn tired of that criminal who is corrupt all to hell and his trying to take away our right to use mail to get our votes in. We live in the modern age and voting by mail is a right we have and as known that is how he votes. He is such a crude.

Hanging in. I do like Bluesky but kind of not getting the jest of using it because I do not understand how to do it. Looks interesting, the posts. The looking is easy, but the interaction for me is not. I am an oldie but goodie and that may be the cause!

First would be nice to see what others have posted but maybe it is me as I do not know how to use. What are the suggestions to getting rid of this corrupt bunch of crooks who have taken over our government? Never mind, I would not know what you all would have to say anyways. Limits on words to?

Trump is reportedly creating a loyalty scorecard that rates how hard corporations work to support his agenda.  His regime is apparently planning to consult the ratings when considering corporate requests.  This is how things work in a dictatorship.

What folks love about @repjasmine.bsky.social is simple—she keeps it real. No sugarcoating, no political gymnastics. She says what the rest of us are thinking but don’t have the mic to say out loud. She’s right—this is a “nightmare”. And we need more voices like hers, calling it out—no apologies!

If you don’t think that at some point he’s going to show more interest in the 5,044 nuclear weapons he controls, you’re as deluded as the people who thought he’d never tank the stock market and the economy.

The SAVE Act is a poll tax. Over 69 million women would have to get new IDs to vote under the SAVE Act—all of which, except military IDs, cost money. As @mcclellan.house.gov explained, whether it’s $1,000 or 1¢, no one should have to pay to vote.
