It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

If every person who has attempted or plans to attend a No Kings March votes Blue in the midterm election Congress can be retaken. Think about what this simple act can accomplish. Be sure you double check that you are registered to vote well in advance. This is a very patriotic act .

This is actually a pretty good summary of where we’re at, and how we got here.

Florida initially sought $1.4 billion from the feds for Alligator Alcatraz.

Dear Women’s USA Olympic Hockey Team — First, congratulations! Second: I drove race cars for 19 yrs & the amount of misogynistic crap I put up with in the garage was insane. The U.S. Men’s Hockey Team has now shown you their true colors. Believe them. They’re not friends of your team or women in general. I’m so tired of this misogyny in sports & everywhere else in American life, to be honest. The patriarchy sucks. Grow the fuck up or hand the keys over to the ladies. Maybe it’s time we drive.

Leilani Munter, y'all.

GWTW was on TCM tonight. I fucking hate that movie. Scarlett O'Hara is the meanest bitch, a middle school Mean Girl who slaps the help, betrays her best friend, is jealous and cruel, and has the morals of a three-year old. The worst role model EVER. Glorifying the confederacy, slavery. All bad!

Dogs of Bluesky. Roobarb looking askance.

What a total Dick (tator) move.

First they come for the immigrants, then the protestors and dissidents, then Democrats or anyone who disagrees with the Pedofuhrer.

NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE ARE ASKING THE QUESTION: IF DEPORTATIONS ARE THE GOAL, WHY ARE WE BUILDING PRISON CAMPS?

GOOD QUESTION FOR PAM

Here's How Democrats Can Resist Trump Even as a Minority

Instead of playing possum or the usual politics, former Republican strategist Kurt Bardella recommends Democrats give the spotlight to Epstein's survivors and victims of ICE after Trump's SOTU.

“I reject the lie that deporting my neighbor is how I win better pay and working conditions. We’re fighting for a country where families stay together without living in terror, so we’re ALL better off!”

Les Wexner sure sounds a lot like Lex Luthor.

Losar Tashi Delek! May this Fire Horse year bring great energy and accomplishment to everyone.

Texas Bluesky folks. I'm wondering whether you support Jasmine Crockett or James Talarico. I'd like to know which you choose and why. I've loved Jasmine for years but also see the appeal of Talarico. I'm in Oregon, so it's just curiosity.

HUGE no on this. Make your phone calls.

They are trying to use the SAVE Act to do an end run around court rulings blocking them from accessing state voter rolls:

America’s Fraulein will discover that temporary power is never worth permanent disgrace.

Many of the Murderbot audiobooks are available on Libby, the Public Library book borrowing app. Since they are generally pretty short, it's nice to borrow them instead of buying them and I love supporting my library system. They are a great listen!

If you want to understand why rich guys are turning back to eugenics and recreating the rhetoric and theology of slavery, it’s because they know on some level this level of wealth inequality is unjustifiable bsky.app/profile/marl...

We use dropboxes in Oregon and there are always 2 people retrieving the ballots so there is a clear chain of custody to the county election office. We have high "turnout" and very low incidence of fraud. I worked verifying signatures at the county level, which is thorough and careful. It works!

Alford apparently has a cranial-rectal inversion.

I was married in my 20's, divorced in my 30's and remarried in my 40's. I still had my exes name when I remarried, so I need to produce my birth cert, old marriage & divorce docs and current marriage license. From 3 different states. Divorced women face extra hoops! This is voter suppression!

Re: the SAVE act. I was married and divorced and remarried 20 year ago. I still had my exes name when remarried. So I need to find the marriage and divorce papers from decades ago to bring with my birth certificate and current marriage license. Impossible to produce all of these! Voter suppression!

That's 3.2 votes a year.
Sounds to me like there isn't a problem at all.
