Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 18/09/2026That's because he's mostly a TV guy. Not sure how Politico got in there. But this is just the first wave. 010

Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Yes! AFIAK, no candidates are wholly aligned with my morals/belief system. I vote for the person most likely to make progress, from either party. Abstention only serves an emotional need, it doesn't help your cause. Participate or don't, but don't trash those who do. 020
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 14/09/2026100%. And he is not alone. See the current administration and many, many others. And many of them are liberal. 100

Reposted by Mike Harringtontomwellborn3rd @wellborn.net · 12/09/2026Read it slow: he told a crowd he doesn't care if they're registered, just go cheat like the other side does. That's not a gaffe, it's an instruction, on camera, with his own name attached. Every Republican in that arena who cheered instead of walking out owns this too. Fuck you. 541887435
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Again. Nice work. Not everyone is as enlightened and gracious as you. It’s that extra effort that sets you apart. 100
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 12/09/2026So your wise response was an ad hominem attack followed by another insult. And they say social media is broken. 500
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 12/09/2026It feels a lot like when you couldn't criticize Israel's treatment of gaza without being called an antisemite. 1101
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 05/09/2026thought the same thing after reading it. It's not even a big decline and the data is lumpy.. 000
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Did you read the quote in context? Klein did an ama not long ago where he talked about that as well. Kirk was effective. Horrible, but effective. 000
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 01/09/2026wrt "you don't have to answer", doesn't everyone have the "you called twice in a row it must be urgent" rule? 000
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Calls are so much better. You can choose not to pickup. The spontaneity of human interaction is a wonderful thing. So much is lost in texting. The authenticity of another voice on the line is worth the effort. 000
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 01/09/2026I have really enjoyed Klein's podcasts. Like 99% of the commenters here, I haven't read Abundance yet, probably won't, so I won't offer an opinion about it, nor will I trash him just for a hot take. It saddens me to see that BS is becoming so much like X. Maybe it's just inherent in social media. 160
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 18/08/2026What are the odds that he'll pay his attorney's for this last appeal? 000
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Have you visited Klahanie on the Issaquah plateau? Not my cup of tea but I did see the value for some people. It was a good place to have kids. I lived adjacent to Klahanie and I saw a lot of kids running around (free range kids!), people engaged in the neighborhood, more than my condo in belltown. 000
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 24/07/2026We don't have to imagine. Remember, during the run-up to the election, they were all in a tizzy because they claimed that the Biden admin was withholding FEMA funds from red states? Turned out to be false. Naturally, when they took over this is exactly what they did and worse. 001

Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 13/07/2026Why does ICE have weapons? No one is shooting them. There is no immediate danger to the public (except from ICE itself). The folks they are chasing go home every night. Most go to jobs. For specific high-risk targets, sure. But for the gardener, construction worker & food vendor, WTF America. 010
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 30/06/2026100%. I have to go there for decent AI news/info but that island of goodness is floating in a sea of shit. It's still the best place for certain sectors, which is unfortunate. 000
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 29/06/2026The Jack Ryan franchise has been screwed for a long time, but this last movie was horrific. It was wrong in so many ways. Prime is a garbage heap these days. 010
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 15/06/2026I'm with Gavin on this one. It's a waste of time and money to destroy and rebuild it. Much more important things to do. Maybe some modifications thought (bling removal, etc). It should be a record that one's vote matters. 000
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 10/06/2026I really hope this is the last time we ever have to hear the name "nancy mace". 020
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 31/05/2026agreed. my goto has been the chicken soft taco. Swap the sour cream for salsa and it's kinda healthy. At least you can identify all of the parts. 010
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 23/05/2026I used to live very near where they are protesting. I *loved* when that road was closed, I wish that it were always closed. 0321

Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 12/04/2026Solid article: Our Democratic leaders need to be more inclusive when deciding on where to speak, and there needs to be a way to criticize the government of Israel without being labeled antisemitic. I see the same thing with Newsom. The purity tests for support are holding us back without benefit. 000

Reposted by Mike HarringtonSenator Ron Wyden @wyden.senate.gov · 07/04/2026Donald Trump is deranged. He must be impeached and removed from office. Republicans who don’t stop him will have blood on their hands, and anyone who carries out an order to bomb civilian targets will be complicit in war crimes and will be held accountable. 31960031503
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 07/04/2026He must be impeached and removed from office. The so-called leader of the free world called for the extension of a civilization. If we had a functioning legislative branch, this would have already happened. @davidcorn.bsky.social was right, our constitution has failed us. 000
Mike Harrington @mikehar.bsky.social · 07/04/2026From what I’ve seen is clearly meant to include the wealthy class, regardless of religion, who associated in the elite circles with Epstein. Rep Raskin also defines it that way. But, as always, ymmv. 000
