An amazing tidbit in @punchbowlnews.bsky.social today tells us everything we need to know about the Republican Party. (And Mitch McConnell, of course, but in his case we already knew it.) #MitchMcConnell

I wrote to my rep yesterday and demanded exactly that. All of our lawmakers should be raising holy hell in Washington and every state capital. This has to stop. Enough!

@congressmin.bsky.social, with all due respect (genuinely), as a lawmaker you must DO something about this madness. Pass emergency measures that criminalize masked, unidentified, armed thugs from grabbing people without cause. Stand up!!!

@scottwiener.bsky.social, with all due respect (genuinely), is there something that lawmakers can DO? Can we pass an emergency measure that makes it illegal to impersonate federal officers? Require these goons to officially identify themselves with badges, uniforms and uncover their faces?

Many are asking what should we do now? “We use our power, organize, mobilize, educate…the American story will not be written by who occupies the White House or by the wealthiest among us…it will be written by you, by ‘we the people.’” -fmr VP Kamala Harris receiving the NAACP Chairman’s Award.

Earnest sociological question - I'm wondering what threshold neds to be reached for corporate media to begin using the words "fascism" "authoritarianism" or "oligarchy" in reference to our current situation?

It's images like these that break my heart.💔 Pointless, cruel, irresponsible and utterly devoid of humanity. So much for American exceptionalism. 1.) FBI headquarters removing all shreds of decency 2.) USAID offices where art from global missions was removed because "America First"

I just wrote to my Senators and Representative. A private citizen accessing/stealing sensitive government data (personnel, treasury, etc) and locking out those who DO have clearance to access that data should be a 5-alarm fire.
