Democracy rando. Refugee who fled a lifetime in Cali, the state of money over people. Sucker for hiking, snow, wide open spaces, no traffic, clean air, rivers, animals, gardens, children, families, history, constitution, rule of law, the truth.

Condolences to all mourning Robert Redford today. Magic on the big screen & often behind the camera. There will never be another like him. The second half of Butch & Sundance is gone. End of an era. Hard day. Last I saw him on the screen in cameo w/George RR Martin in a Navajo jail on Dark Winds 😁

Ndidiamaka Okpareke (who?) is trying to take a cheap shot at @repstansbury.bsky.social by claiming the MN shooter was mentally ill _because_ they may have been trans? That's not how the mental health professionals see it. Even if she's right, how would an ill person get an assault rifle? MAGA is how

Hey @nmpope.bsky.social quitting the redistricting TF is a shameful political stunt. U know a commission would only draw _state_ legislative districts not CDs. You're getting punked by the fascist John Block. Get back to the TF and work on an independent redistricting commission.

NM stands with our Dem neighbors in TX who have 24-hr police escorts to prevent them from breaking quorum in the TX legislature. Especially Rep. Nicole Collier. 46 of us attended our local protest in support of breaking quorum over anti-democratic GOP gerrymandering: www.reuters.com/world/us/tex...

Hey @thedlcc.bsky.social @indivisible.org @commoncause.org gerrymandering serves only the politicians who do it. Not the people. Not democracy. You can't extinguish tyranny becoming a tyrant. Don't believe me? Maybe you'll believe these people. They haven't flipflopped.

@commoncause.org doubling down on hypocrisy by calling themselves the leading anti-gerrymandering group. Says who? Right now you're leaders in shilling for self serving gerrymandering politicians. Then tripling down by soliciting donations for your hypocrisy. Don't make me drop off your mailing list

Hey @commoncausenm.bsky.social you need to push back on the national's gerrymandering flipflop. Only serves pols not the people. Cannot defeat tyranny by becoming tyrants. The framers would call this hypocrisy. Keep litigating, protesting, demanding rule of law. www.commoncause.org/resources/po...

Word up to @indivisible.org @ezralevin.bsky.social Democrats & pundits. Abandoning democracy is disarming. Exactly what Trump/GOP want. Real power resides in the people. We're in the streets & courts. Can't bring down a president overnight. It's a grind but there's progress. Do the work. Let's go.

When Republicans gerrymander, Democrats cry foul. When Democrats gerrymander, they call it strategy. Spoiler: It’s still cheating. #FairMaps #NoMoreRiggedMaps

Hey @juddlegum.bsky.social the public just loves it when wealthy crooks complain about others breaking the law. And people go absolutely wild when self-interested pols who kowtow to a president spewing racism complain about antisemitic hate speech from others: www.muskwatch.com/p/update-neu...

Massive shoutout to today's @commoncause.org Watchdog newsletter on Texas gerrymandering: "Beto O’Rourke, Gavin Newsom and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have claimed Democrats should fire back, gerrymandering in states they can. All of these folks are wrong. All of it is anti-democratic." Why I'm DTS.

Caught @ehmee.bsky.social excellent "Prehistoric Road Trip" on PBS a couple of yrs ago. Now her dedication to public ed is what this regime seeks to erase. My buddy & I join Indivisible protests twice/wk. Hundreds of motorists see our signs & honk every time. Power resides in the people not wealth.

@thenewmexican.bsky.social ‬MAGA Chacon's fear & loathing of the most outspoken member of our US delegation @repstansbury.bsky.social is behind today's hit piece disguised as a "politics check." Why else report lies & innuendo? She is the loyal public servant for *all* New Mexicans. Not him.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social July 9 14A blog post brilliant. Just add it prohibits unequal state laws whimsical or otherwise. Absence of federal enforcement legislation doesn't weaken/invalidate 14A. US courts absolutely obliged to enforce it. Rs want to invalidate all As. No As to 250-yo laws. Illegal

@repstansbury.bsky.social is popular with constitutents. @thenewmexican.bsky.social MAGA Chacon hates her for it. Is the most powerful person in the world being a pedophile news? Or is a couple of responses to a meme news? Employing this hack tell us all we need to know about his "newspaper."

Chacon's @thenewmexican.bsky.social hit piece on @repstansbury.bsky.social is yellow journalism. We're supposed to think insider trading pathological liar MTG is more honest than our MoC?

Kennedy perjured himself on ACIP at his Senate confirmation. There must be consequences if we're going to have the rule of law. Nobody voted for disease & death. Don't get me started on why the Senate would take the word of someone who clearly is irrational.

@meiselasb.bsky.social The West Pt speech rpt is part of the stream of media fabrications since Trump first ran for prez. All commit the Cardinal Sin of Journalism. They violate the arch rule. They invent a narrative instead of reporting his fascist ramblings. Co-opted by his donors.

8/ I do not care for what political pundits say on these matters. We have only one political choice to make. If we choose democracy, then we can have all the political debates we wish. If we choose a ruler, then there will be no debates. Our political choices will be made for us.

7/ The road we’re traveling will get worse before it gets better. The degenerates and fools who elected Trump own this.

Michael Fehr @michaelfehr.bsky.social · 29/04/2025
6/ But for Trump, the more heinous the act the more powerful he feels. Yesterday, The Atlantic magazine published an interview of Trump. He stated that he is enjoying himself. Trump has a bottomless pit of need in place of humanity or a human heart. He is a madman.

Michael Fehr @michaelfehr.bsky.social · 29/04/2025
5/ The accused are presumed innocent. The burden of proving the accusations rests with the government. Everyone who sets foot on US soil has these legal rights. Regardless of residency status. That’s in our Constitution.

Michael Fehr @michaelfehr.bsky.social · 29/04/2025
4/ Trump has accused these men of crimes. Did they get due process? Were they notified of the charges against them? Were they afforded legal counsel? Did they have the opportunity to face their accuser, the federal government, in a legal hearing of the evidence against them?

Michael Fehr @michaelfehr.bsky.social · 29/04/2025
3/ He is demonizing them to the public and terrorizing all immigrants and people of color. This is what white supremacists do. Trump may as well burn a cross on the South Lawn. It is the behavior of a tin pot dictator. An atrocious crime against humanity.

Michael Fehr @michaelfehr.bsky.social · 29/04/2025
2/ He is adorning the interior in gold and furnishing it with garish images of himself. He turned the South Lawn into a Tesla car lot. Now he has staked mugshots on the South Lawn. In another place or time, he would have staked heads. All the mugshots show men of color.

Michael Fehr @michaelfehr.bsky.social · 29/04/2025
1/ The White House is the residence of our head of state. But it belongs to the people of this country. All of us. This is why public tours are hosted there. Trump wants to turn the White House into a palace for a monarch or the strongmen he aspires to be.

@paulkrugman.substack.com.web.brid.gy wants to say a bad economy will end Trump. But he would be happy to destroy our economic security & toss us a few crumbs to prevent an overthrow. What riles people up is shredding democracy. Ignoring courts. Ending habeas corpus. Voter suppression. Persecution.

Michael Fehr @michaelfehr.bsky.social · 24/04/2025
@pkrugman.bsky.social Big media owners don't want to be too negative about Trump. They think Trump will add to or protect their wealth. Shari Redstone is the latest. So they fabricate narratives about him. The only way Trump makes sense is as a criminal.

Highly recommend @mikepod.bsky.social latest newsletter on judicial supremacy at www.weekendreading.net/p/the-courts... Should be required reading for Joe Biden/Kamala Harris/Hakeem Jeffries institutionalists. This is what democracy looks like. So many ways we can make our democracy better.

I demand that my federal delegation @fernandez.house.gov @repstansbury.bsky.social @senatorheinrich.bsky.social @lujan.senate.gov revolt over this. It's outrageous. Govt personnel are servants of the people. Not the president's hired help. This is pitch forks & torches stuff. Not hyperbole.
