I can't stress enough that if MAGAs and chuds start coming here, the best thing you can do is block them and move on. Don't give them the attention that they desperately crave and don't let them drag you into bad faith arguments.

Yup, the state of New York is ready. Also this is why he knows he can't pardon or commute Maxwell's sentence, since well, it would be a huge blow back.

Trying to make people stop talking about Epstein by letting out a convicted fraudster is not the power move Donald thinks it is

Also commuting the sentence won't save Santos from state charges

We knew this was going to happen, and it's going to happen more and more. Think Morale at ICE and CBP are low now?

In what sort of successful autocracy does a Gestapo ICE agent get ARRESTED?

That's right. ICE guy, arrested. So much for the dictatorship.

Just a reminder that this place is rotten with bad faith accounts trying openly to split apart groups, redirect discussions, and ruin any chance of creating solidarity 🥰

We already know what the GOP is capable of...why would you give them the gun and the bullets to do the job when you don't need to? Seriously think things through.

Okay, I want to just say this straight out. The only reason why much if not all of Trump's Wishlist has stalled out is because of the Filibuster....I want you all to sit back and think about how much worse things would be without it. Like it or not, the Filibuster will stay.

Time is up. I gave Speaker Mike Johnson two days to swear in Adelita Grijalva. Arizona's 7th congressional district 813,000 Arizonans are now being taxed without representation. I have lawyers downstairs right now drafting litigation.

That actually is true....in fact look up Ub Iwerks. He was one of Disney's first animators going all the way back to Steamboat Willy.

These people are weirdos and grifters pure and simple. Like who has that kind of energy. Even Kendrick Lamar doesn't have energy to be on Drake's every living moment, and letting him (Drake) crash out on his own.

I will never understand people who turn liking and disliking art into some weird competition or a like chasing power trip.

Some people have had their brains so cooked by social media they can't even enjoy or dislike things without being insufferable clout chasers.

Listen here, if you got something you enjoy, and it's legal, ethical and won't hurt and annoy people have at it! Seriously, it takes a lot less energy to do that than to be terminally online and hate something for a grift. Trust me I can name quite a few of these grifters.

My question for everyone saying Janet Mills is too old to be elected Senator is how old was Bernie Sanders when you supported him in 2020.

There is no downside to electing Janet Mills! Even in your most ageist doom fantasies, Maine has a Dem Governor who will immediately replace her with another Dem!

Daniel Gilmore @gilmored85.bsky.social · 6h

Ppl get that if Janet Mills becomes a senator and croaks in office, she'll just be immediately replaced by an appointment right? Ppl keep evoking RBG as if its synonymous to an olde senator and its very much not.

What am i saying? This is bluesky! Of course they dont get that.

Something almost farcical about saying "ugh, I can't believe that my only options in this primary are a guy who says the r-slur and victim-blames for sexual assault and... and... an OLD PERSON"
