Karen Ocamb @karenocamb.bsky.social · 26/04/2026CNN's Wolf Blitzer was near the gunman and heard the shots. He asked how the shooter could get so close to the ballroom door given all the metal detectors. Will this turn into a meme about how much the media hates Trump? Or a new conspiracy since Trump wants to come back? Another Butler, PA photo? 000
Karen Ocamb @karenocamb.bsky.social · 24/04/2026So many people freaking out over Trump attending the White House Correspondents Asson dinner Sat night, it sounds like popcorn night with CSPAN.

Karen Ocamb @karenocamb.bsky.social · 11/02/2026Don't look away. Revisit the story by @adamserwer.bsky.social - "The Cruelty is the Point" w photos of lynchings. “But it’s not the burned, mutilated bodies that stick with me,” Serwer writes. “It’s the faces of the white men in the crowd.” Are those grinning white men us, too?

Karen Ocamb @karenocamb.bsky.social · 25/01/2026There's a moral awakening going on, an apolitical revival of conscience prompting so many of us to literally put our lives on the line to stand up for our neighbors. We may need a 2-party system but these monsters in the White House have no moral values. We're all at risk. tinyurl.com/3hpdjk6btinyurl.comAmerica’s New Civil War Over Truth and HumanityCould you be next? 001
Karen Ocamb @karenocamb.bsky.social · 07/01/2026This may amuse you. This may anger you. But we really need to look at why "toxic masculinity" has become so acceptable, Trump & co think they can invade another country & GRAB their oil as if it's just "pu**y." And why ICE just shoots because he can. @maddow.bsky.social tinyurl.com/36epc8e3tinyurl.comTrump’s Triple X Testosterone Crusade to Capture the Western HemisphereVeteran journalist and LGBTQ+ ally Lucian Truscott IV analyzes Trump and the Venezuela invasion 020

Karen Ocamb @karenocamb.bsky.social · 25/11/2025It's been a helluva week - the split screen juxtapositions of Trump world and those of us fighting back, still shocked by the demolition of our beloved East Wing.
