All this talk about how silent DoorDash has been about the shooting of their drivers. Where's the discussion about why so many businesses are hiring illegal workers? Where's the accountability for them?

I'm convinced republicans would forget to add cheese to a mousetrap.

I want to believe that a massive blue wave is coming, and that it will reverse the damage that has been done to our country. But there appears to be a calmness among everyone in this administration about the future. Which lends itself to support the theory that Elon has a way of rigging elections.

First you create an economy that is draining people's money, then you offer them $5000 for their allegiance. Common Sense😳

Let me get this straight. Our tax dollars are proposed to be used as a reward for voting for republicans. $5000 per person would add an additional trillion plus dollars to the already bloated deficit, which has mostly been created by republicans. "Common Sense"

Just think about this. The President of The United States thought that a great way to celebrate the 250th year of our democracy would be to build a cage in front of the people's house and have men been beat the shit out of each other in it.

Look at it this way, Trump was the best that Republicans could put forward. Stop thinking they are going to break from the master plan. Power and controlling it is all that matters. Which is why midterms will be rigged.

Yes, we made history again with the largest peaceful protest. But that doesn't solve the Trump problem. We need everyone that came out to No Kings to be an activist! "One and done" gets us nowhere.

Could it be that we are all looking for justification that doesn't exist outside of the fact that the rise in oil prices benefits the oil industry.

EXCURSION An excursion is a short, guided, or independent pleasure trip—often part of a larger vacation, cruise, or educational journey—designed for sightseeing, adventure, or cultural immersion. It does not include an illegal war funded by taxpayers, which includes killing school children.

Congressional hearings are a complete waste of time and should be done away with. They are literally a "sound bite" session. Bondi got all the questions in advance, so she was prepared with answers. Whether they were snarky or lies didn't matter. NO Accountability.

If you haven't already done so, please sign up to attend a No Kings event on March 28. We are working towards that magic number and we need everyone involved!

Perhaps it's in our best interest to agree that local police support ICE operations. Handling crowd control as an example. This way, they can keep an eye on ICE activities and hold them immediately accountable for any violations of the law or constitution.

The greatest tool the administration has to conquer our country is Fox News. They are the masters of propaganda, and can take the worst moments of this administration and spin them into a beacon of democracy. We have to find a way to impact their business.

I like politicians better before social media. It has become a tool for nothing but division and propaganda. No fact checking or guard rails.

There is always an abundance of excuses why democrats cave during critical funding votes. Hardball turns to softball, and we always strike out. We always seems to trust that republicans will live up to the promises made. Good luck!

The President invited Putin and Netanyahu to be part of his new "Peace Board". Both of them are war mongers and wanted for war crimes. Birds of a feather. It's kind of like starting a "protect the children board" with Epstein.

No Kings 3.0 is coming. Now is the time to recruit, in order to make it bigger than the previous. With more people engaging, it opens the door to more impactful resistance.

Remember the Muslim ban under Trump1.0? Now he calls the rioters in Iran (a Muslim nation) patriots, while he calls American protesters "domestic terrorist". Make sense?

Congress passed a law, the president signed the law, and the DOJ is ignoring the law. That's where we find ourselves with the Epstein files. So it was all a big dog and pony show.

Dan Arredondo @djarred.bsky.social · 06/01/2026
So the attack on Venezuela took place on the date that the DOJ was to provide written justification for not releasing all the documents and heavily redacting so much of what they did release. Congress was in session today and it was crickets about the Epstein files.

Dan Arredondo @djarred.bsky.social · 06/01/2026
"Protecting American Security " is the justification for just about every illegal action this administration takes. Given republicans are insecure and scared by just about anything they don't understand, that is a golden ticket phrase.😡

Still waiting for Trump to blame his war crimes on Joe Biden. I guess he's busy golfing.

Congratulations Venezuela! America is going to step in and run your country. Your rich will benefit dramatically, while the poor will suffer. There will be government corruption, only surpassed by its incompetence. So basically, nothing has changed but losing your oil reserves!

It truly is The Handmaids Tale, with Canada being the good guys and part of the resistance. It may also become our safe haven.

Call me crazy, but it appears to me that the only real way to ruin the oligarchy is to impact the ability for them to further their riches. They bought their way into power with money we spent on their products or services. We have to shut off the tap, but are tariffs meant to be a barrier?

For once in my life, I'm glad the Republican Party is the party of conspiracy theories. Yes, we didn't get all the Epstein files and what we got was heavily redacted. But it's a no-win proposition for Trump because his base will see this a more coverup. They voted the release into LAW.

I guess it worked so well, that we are taking our Middle East strategy to South America.

While recent democratic victories in special elections is extremely encouraging, there is a ton of time between now and the midterms. Every person on Bluesky will be needed as part of the resistance. Join an indivisible chapter near you, or any other group that is organized against this regime.

I guess it's time to start asking ourselves why we are paying any taxes going forward. If government is not supporting taxpayers, and giving relief to the rich, why are we paying any taxes?

Dan Arredondo @djarred.bsky.social · 15/12/2025
This should be our objective for the next year: Turn Red to Blue, and Old to New. While the first part is pretty simple, the second part has to do with replacing legacy democrats. They are the reason the party is polling as low as Trump.

I've spent the vast majority of my life using the terms "payback is a bitch, or Karma is a bitch". But now I'm not confident either serves the purpose for what republicans have coming after dems are back in power. Any suggestions?😃

If you are into print, there's a new read coming out soon. It's called the Epstein Files! It's the story of the rich and powerful forcing themselves on the young and innocent. Only to eventually be sent to prison, where the strong and powerful force themselves on them! I love a happy ending!

Trump knows about peace, as much as he knows about soccer! FIFA just embarrassed the fuck out of themselves today. Maybe you could award one to Hitler posthumously.

All I want for Christmas is the Epstein files. I'd open them with the wonderment of a little child. I'd scroll the names like Santa Claus, but this list won't get presents. They'll get what's long overdue, and go from being rich to peasants.

Dan Arredondo @djarred.bsky.social · 02/12/2025
What's also sad about the shooting of the National Guard members, is that Trump put them in harms way. There was no need to have them in the streets of any American city. Someone with a twisted sense of patriotism could see them as a threat to freedom.

Dan Arredondo @djarred.bsky.social · 01/12/2025
Here's the thing. The rats that jump off the sinking ship....we are going to fish them out of the water. Helping them just long enough to hold them accountable for what they did to enable this administration.

You ever have a chip in your windshield, then turn on the defroster and it begins to crawl across the entire windshield? That look that you had on your face is what republicans are wearing right now, as the cracks begin to grow across their party.

The question that we have to answer: Can civility be restored after this administration, or do we go after republicans they way they have gone after democrats? It wouldn't be a question normally, but republicans have sat quietly as it's happening!

Dan Arredondo @djarred.bsky.social · 26/11/2025
It's got to be pretty humiliating for MAGA to realize that they have been manipulated by the very foreigners that they hate for years! I'm willing to bet that we eventually find out that this was an orchestrated campaign bought and paid for by the Republican Party.

Dan Arredondo @djarred.bsky.social · 22/11/2025
Here's the million-dollar question: let's assume that the DOJ releases enough good information to actually hold anyone accountable. Will they press serious charges? They've spent months working against doing anything.

The Ukraine deal drafted by the Trump administration is worse that the one they proposed the first time. Ukraine gives up everything and Russia comes out way ahead. Russia Russia Russia isn't a term that describes a hoax. It is describes the Trump foreign policy.

My good friends. If there is anything we know about republicans, it's that they only care about winning and power at any cost. They didn't magically grow a spine, they already claimed to have religion, and they are loyal to a fault. Something is a fowl with this whole Epstein shift.
