AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

Good morning Bluesky. Earth has reached a tipping point. Not a good thing.

Truth.

Mark T. Sneed @marktsneed.bsky.social · 1d

Think about this. The following comes from a fictional authoritarian empire that is stripping the resources of their people. Is fact now following fiction?

Pay attention. Or pay the cost. They don't like or respect us.

Just a daily reminder of the reason that we teach history. So, that the criminals, racists, bigots, and evil men and women that did all of this cannot try to spin the truth. Pay attention. Or pay the cost.

This was just one example of 45's ongoing flaunting of the law. It's against the law for individuals to contact and negotiate with governments. Right?

Remember? Remember? It wasn't in the criminal's best interest and he had a meeting to stop it. That meeting was against the law. Surprise.

Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."
