Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 18/09/2025The silence from the always opinionated women on #theview speaks louder than if they’d spoken out against the removal of Jimmy Kimmel. I appreciate their position; I’m not sure I respect it. Giving them the benefit of the doubt, today, to sort out their thoughts & hoping they’ll share going fwd. 030
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 14/09/2025So cute! For the past several years, we’ve had a little toad that lived in our front flower bed. We would see him every summer and fall night, but we haven’t seen him this year yet. I keep looking. I miss his froggy presence. 120
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 11/08/2025The distractions, horrible as they are, are working. Let’s not forget the Trump-Jeffrey Epstein connection. Repeat it loudly and often: RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES. 031
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 01/08/2025Escape the news. ❤️ Project Runway returns tonight. My daughter is the Supervising Story Producer! Here’s how to watch: When it airs at 9, watch on Freeform. I think it’s free w basic cable. Or watch on Hulu or Disney+ later. (Not sure what time that means.) Enjoy! 030
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 08/06/2025I hate to be a downer but since when, in this administration, has the law mattered? 000
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 08/06/2025Multiple choice: when is it time to call in the National Guard? When violent insurrectionists storm and defile the Capitol, brutally attack police officers and chant about hanging the VP or when people gather to protest deportations without giving people due process under the laws of the US? Hm. 031

Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 18/04/2025I’ve been reading that we’re “coming into a test of our Constitution,” i.e., the treatment of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, DOGE actions, the defiance of court orders, retribution against who he considers political enemies. Haven’t we already failed this test? What are its limits? Congress, stop him! 040
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 12/04/2025Hm, I wonder. (Where is that “I’m being sarcastic” button?) 000
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 12/04/2025Happy Passover to you and your family. It’s my favorite holiday as well. One of my favorite parts is hosting non-Jewish friends and sharing a bit about our history. Happy Pesach! 000

Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 25/03/2025He is extremely cowardly, allowing his cabinet to take the heat for him. He will never own up to mistakes or failures. 030
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 25/03/2025Dear Dem lawmakers: This is a friendly reminder that Hillary Clinton was skewered by Rs for using a personal server for official emails. How about you treat Trump and his incompetent band of leaky lawmakers in kind? #butheremails 020
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 25/03/2025Dear Dems: No matter what you are asked in an interview, pls answer with something like, “we must address the dangerous and incompetent security breach of Trump’s cabinet members.” And then proceed to do so. Every single time. Every single question. Please. Because, messaging is important. 040
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 25/03/2025It’s Equal Pay Day which, simply put, marks how far into the new year women have to work to earn what their male counterparts made the previous year. This roughly 3 month time frame is a generalization. Other factors that need to be considered are location, race, age, education, marital status. 120

Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 14/03/2025I’ve read and listened to Dems on both sides of the CR and, no, @schumer.senate.gov, I don’t agree with you. I implore you to vote against the CR. It’s our only strength to have the Rs own a gov’t shutdown. Do not acquiesce to Trump and musk. #resist 010
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 13/03/2025Interestingly, it’s the D leadership - the men - who seem lacking in the cajones department. Jasmine Crockett, AOC, and my rep, Madeleine Dean, to name but three D women, have shown that they have big, brass ones. 1141
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 13/03/2025Yes, ur right, but then our elected Ds need to think creatively. Use social media to say Rs lie. That’s the overriding msg.They shld band together, hold rallies in large venues TOGETHER. Gather people & the media will cover it. I know, I dream. Sigh. But they must do something! 121
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 13/03/2025Yup! Why are Dems so freaking weak? Our elected Ds don’t have to lie. We have to refute lies, but we can’t get it together enough to get the message across. 😡😡😡 081
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 13/03/2025And Dems need to show unity, get on message, and proclaim it’s the Rs fault loudly and often. Will they? 5531
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 12/03/2025Isn’t that their point, to make it harder to learn? Keep the people uninformed, ignorant, unable to think critically and, ultimately, malleable. ignorant 000

Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 07/03/2025I’m no longer sure of what Dems believe. Can you please enlighten me? Why did members vote to censure Al Green? Why didn’t/don’t you present a united front? What is the messaging? Trump didn’t get a mandate, despite his claims of an overwhelming victory. We Ds are large in number. Speak to us! 021
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 06/03/2025Cruelty is a characteristic of this administration. 000
Melody L @melodylesser.bsky.social · 06/03/2025Per CNN: “The US House of Representatives on Thursday censured Rep. Al Green for his protest during President Donald Trump’s address to Congress this week—a formal condemnation of the Texas Democrat’s actions.” Who remembers the penalty Boebert & MTG incurred after they disrupted Biden’s SOTU? 000
