The cruelty, the callousness, the indecency. The Trump administration will implode. America will emerge from this dark era of hate, cruelty and indecency. America will rise again. But we ALL need to be in this fight for our future.

Trump's "unconditional discharge" in his NY case - no punishment for his crimes - is a supremely unjust result. Some say it proves justice doesn't matter. I say the frustration, anger & disgust we feel at the absence of punishment for Trump's 34 felony crimes proves that to us, justice DOES matter.

There is no better time than right now to abandon Twitter. Make it useless. Worthless.

There is simply no better ROI for Democratic officials than validating independent progressive media.

In that week when Musk bought Twitter & started bungling it, the possibility occurred to me that he'd bought it to end its usefulness as a pro-democracy tool. I'm so grateful for BlueSky & the fact that we're all here now & that it's increasing possible to get our news here too!

MADDOW: “Maybe what President Biden should have done is not just pardon his son, Hunter, but named him ambassador to France. Maybe then the criticism would be a little more muted.”

None of the hot takes about why Democrats lost the election touch this @eladn.bsky.social deep dive. It goes wider, deeper, drills way down to the heart of how we ended up at American fascism-again. Inside the reality of the tyranny ahead of us, is an opportunity—if we accept the assignment. 
For a brief moment in American history, basic income was guaranteed for most Americans, they got to choose when and where they worked, and they were protected from losing their healthcare and other necessities if they lost their jobs. And then it was gone. But the illusion had been broken, and a sort of existential dread haunted them.
And when did it end? Under Biden. Not with a bang, but with a whimper. While it was the Republicans who worked hard to end the benefits, there was no loud fight, there was no call for these benefits to become a fixture of Americans' lives.
Biden returned to being a centrist who appealed to Republicans, and we were back to business as usual.
But people didn't forget. The genie could no longer be put back in the bottle.

Starting a phony transgender bathroom debate and hiding behind the guise of “protecting women” to distract from your attempts to push through the confirmations of alleged rapists, sex traffickers, and fraudsters at the highest levels of government is peak Republican Party.

Americans didn’t want another old president so they elected a 78-year-old. Americans wanted to end crime so they elected a criminal. Keep it going lol

Accurate.
A meme with four quadrants. On the top, alongside an image of a sad SpongeBob SquarePants, the text reads: Republicans talking about the economy while Biden was President."

On the bottom, alongside an image of a very happy SpongeBob SquarePants jumping for joy in front of a rainbow with sparkles surrounding him, the text reads: Republicans talking about the exact same economy the second Trump becomes president.

I will never understand how a billionaire, the richest man on Earth, spent millions to buy an election for ANOTHER billionaire, and told us that his policies would cause all of us non-billionaires “temporary hardship...” ...and the public didn't tell BOTH OF THEM to fuck off.

My late Gen X heroes were anti-establishment, like Rage against the Machine and Henry Rollins. They taught us not to be bootlickers. I fear the message young men these days find online is “you deserve to have your boots licked and someone is stopping that from happening”
