I’m quite sick of democrats saying “this isn’t normal” and “this isn’t usual.” FFS we KNOW! Such a lame response.

The GOP's massive bill would benefit the rich the most -- while hitting the poor The top 10% of earners in the U.S. would see the biggest gains under the GOP tax and spending package, according to congressional forecasters, but those at the bottom of the income ladder would be worse off.

Trump’s Kennedy Center Cancels Pride Concert That Would Have Featured Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington - Washingtonian No explanation was given, the chorus says: "We regret that this opportunity has been taken away."

The Kennedy Center, currently run by gay quisling and Trump toady Richard Grenell, has cancelled the concert by the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, DC, performing alongside the National Symphony Orchestra previously scheduled for May. Their hate has no shame.

Interesting to see how quickly American foreign policy pivoted from "Get clean drinking water for children without hope" to "Do ethnic cleansing for condos with Mediterranean views."

I would like to partake in your pecan piiiiiiieeeeeee…. Pecan piiiieeeeee

In a span of 24 hours Trump:
•Signed EO withdrawing USA from UN Human Rights Council
•Declared ethnic cleaning of Gaza & US control
•Sent immigrants to a Gitmo concentration camp
•Said he’d let El Salvador imprison US Citizens

If you still don’t see this fascism for what it is you’re complicit.

If this were happening in any other country, we’d be calling it a COUP.

let’s work to stop him. Thank you @qasimrashid.com ! 🙏🏻

I wish I had your confidence.

Some younger folks may not be aware that not too long ago we could just pick up tax forms from the local library, fill it out and mail it directly to the IRS. Just for the price of a stamp. It’s insane to have to pay for tax prep if you have basic income and expenses.

I've spent a lifetime on political messaging. I've written more political scripts than I can count. My advice to Dems (that I honestly could rarely get people to do) is to name-call. We need name-calling. It's not enough to say what's happening is bad. Who's responsible and what do you think of them

A private citizen, with the backing of the President, illegally shut down a major government agency over the weekend and it is not on the front page of this morning's New York Times

Trump says he opened California’s water. Local officials say he nearly flooded them. The Army Corps of Engineers moved to release massive quantities of water in Central California, panicking local officials.

Unbelievable. Executive orders based on rumors and conspiracy theories about California fires. He’s such a dangerous idiot. www.politico.com/news/2025/01...

Oh ya? Before I go signing up, you’re liking it? For photography or also friends/family photos?

In the 20th century, they were known as "concentration camps." Now, they are simply called "housing."

Doesn't that sound so much more humane? Voila, problem solved!

So if I’m understanding today correctly, the world’s richest person Elon Musk, whom no one elected, is taking over federal payment systems and employee data while the federal employees who investigate and prosecute public corruption are being fired en masse.

Hey @bsky.app it would be so rad if you made an app that is dedicated to posting pretty photos and family/friends photos so we can all get the F off meta asap. I’d be willing to pay a monthly fee for sure. Cuz I don’t want to BE the product. I will pay to USE good product. 🙏🏻

0 mid air collisions under the Biden administration

Trump enters office & immediately removes safety protocols in the federal aviation administration

1 week later there's a deadly and fatal mid-air collision

Trump refuses responsibility, blames diversity and the previous administration

Absurd.

Trump put a freeze on hiring air traffic controllers and, on Musk’s instruction, fired the FAA chief early without replacing him.

This should be the only thing Dems are saying today. They should all be out on media saying this.

If racism isn’t a deal breaker for someone, then they’re a racist, imho.

I hope folks understand what’s happening here. Some in the administration view concentration camps inside the US as *maybe* a bridge too far.

So they’re starting with Guantanamo Bay, away from prying eyes and 24/7 coverage.

‘member when we had all of our friends’ email addresses and that was our main mode of electronic communication? Might wanna resurrect that and make some loved ones happy with a nice email. Stay the F off Meta. :)

Just read through the executive orders on WH website. White nationalism on full display. Such a group of small minded, weak men who are terrified of other humans and yet think they are strongmen. It would be a joke if it weren’t so disgusting and destructive. And did you see the home page? Yikes.

Meow. My old girl. 🩷

Watched Conclave last night. It was great.

Meowsies.

‘Member in the 80s and 90s in LA when “the rains” would come every year? I’m outside and it’s delightfully pre-stormy right now. 🤘🏻🩷

Moving my email over to proton mail which is encrypted and doesn’t track you like gmail. Starting to shift away from groups on FB, using Reddit instead. Doing my best to get off these Trump-loving billionaire platforms. I wish there was another app for nice pictures by my friends though, like OG IG

Trump is undoing all the anti-corruption measures put into place after Watergate
