Is it just me or is society in general more quick to anger when trump is in the white house? I felt it the 1st time too. We all just become more rabid & feral versions of ourselves. The quick to hate, & stubbornness to keep hating; the inability to reason & consider... Just me?

I think that I need to go sign up for Twitter again. It seems to me that the Bluesky posts that get the most attention are reposted screenshots from Twitter.

Don't have to worry about voting anymore. Why am I still worried?

Happy Canada Day! I have fond memories of sitting next to the Detroit River on the 2nd or 3rd, watching shared fireworks between Windsor & Detroit. It felt like one city, one country.

So can anyone please tell me, or show me what is in the final bill? Specifically, can trump ignore the judicial rulings? Is he now effectively the emperor?

Republicans: We won't increase debt. BBB Page 754: Increase the debt ceiling by $5 trillion, please. Just because.

Page 754. Increase the debt ceiling by $5,000,000,000,000 (that $5 trillion).

Also in the bill are work requirements for those collecting SNAP. It MAY be possible for a work requirement to be satisfied by an adult living in the home. BUT, this puts single parent households at an extreme disadvantage! Single parents, tend to be women, it's a direct affront to women.

The Republicans flat out are lying. They are counting on people like my family who do not pay attention.

I forgot the Democratic Senator's name that was just speaking to the point that - Republicans are denying that the bill will raise the deficit by trillions. He read directly from the bill that instructed the budget office to increase the debt ceiling by five trillion. Hmmmm.

A provision still exists in this bill that, courts may not “enforce a contempt citation for failure to comply with an injunction or temporary restraining order”? There's not much else stopping trump from defying court orders as it is. This would make him a literal king. That needs more attention.

This is confusing. It appears that the Senate can ignore the Parliamentarian's rulings (which is actually, advice). This is still not over. Nothing that was reported that the Senate Parliamentarian removed, has actually been removed until the final vote on the bill.

I won't see the other side of this mess. I'm really hoping my kids do OK.

So, El Salvador arrested "Fito". Cartel leader who previously escaped prison. He's also wanted in the US. Where do the really bad El Salvadorian criminals go? To the US, of course. He'll probably end up in prison in the US too. This seems backwards. www.yahoo.com/news/ecuador...

Type 3 diabetes & stage 7 cancer are a few of the medical nuggets we get to learn from having such a smart regime.

I'm waiting for my son's car @ the shop. They have something called Newsmax playing on the TV. 30 mins & I haven't heard any news yet. How do people watch stuff like this?

I confirmed last night that I am no longer a night person.

I knew it. This goes along with my other predictions which I wish were all fantasy fiction.

I feel as if the Kraken has been released in regards to my posting. I have been told, that this will get me in hot water with my MAGA family. But we're at such a dangerous precipice, I can't stand still. w/out a 'dislike' function on Bsky, I'll take a serious lack of likes as a voice to STFU.

What do you think about the rumor perpetuated by US reporters that if he were to 'earn' a 'deserved' Peace Prize (which we know he won't), that it will be renamed to the "Trump Peace Prize" ? Skip to about 2:35 of this interview. Listen carefully, the quality is bad: bsky.app/profile/brow...

This is so stupid. It's a diversion from the actions being taken to erode our democracy. It's still a very stupid thing, as is the entirety of our dear leader.

The Trump $250 note. It's a very stupid thing.
