I'm not interested in your MAGA.. be it of the red or blue variety. I want to help America become what she has always claimed to be: A country where all are created equal with liberty and justice for all. If you aren't... then just fo & block me.

Good breakdown on the Maine state ballot for next month.

The Bowdoin grads I know are exceptional human beings.

Of course.. the ones I know are the ones that didn't come from 'old money'.

How you take Angry is your choice.

I don't assume they are an 'insider' I assume they have a brain and have used some thought to come up with opinions that they share. And after having thought about it myself, I often agree with them.

Some of the smartest people I know are not 'anyone'.

"James Lankford (OK) and Rand Paul (KY) are among conservatives veering from Sen. Graham’s position, warning of ongoing attacks without congressional approval.

Lankford has stated he would be “apoplectic” if the Biden administration had taken the same steps as those being carried out by Trump"

Funny.. I don't even have a tiktok account.

I was getting my information from the NYT.

I wish I were surprised about her position.

AIPAC is a horrible drug.

It was half of a group selected for polling... not half of the population.

I'm sure I could easily pick a polling set, even in this blue state, and manage to get far more than half to agree to pretty much anything, that's the nature of statistics and polling.

I was reading something yesterday, here I think, from someone going on about how we aren't living in an autocracy yet because we have Freedom of the Press.

Do we? Really? Because this doesn't look at all like it.

I'm so tired of everyone rushing to obey.

Down with the bourgeoisie

Headline says "Nearly half of Americans blame Trump and GOP for shutdown: poll"

I comment that I don't understand the half that doesn't blame him for the shutdown.

And you hit me with pie charts about January 6th? Wha?

What exactly is that supposed to convince me of?

... good luck with that.

The edgelords think Nazi is a good thing. Way overblown how upset Grammy gets about it.

They care nothing about Musk's morals and just his money. If they are Hitler flavored edgelords then maybe they will get rich too.

Pretty sure journalism is a lost art.

For the last 14 yrs since the Occupy movements, 1% has referred to the wealthiest Americans.

Google it.

As you search down, you will eventually find your definition in there as well but it's NOT the standard definition.

... at some point the contractor is going to be in court. No building/demolition permits. No asbestos abatement. I mean.. what in the MAGA hell do they think they are doing?

and it's not like they are ever going to get paid.

Our tax dollars at work. This is literally on the White House website.

This administration is like if Temu & Shein were humans.

Eliza Orlins @elizaorlins.bsky.social · 1d

I can’t believe this is real—but it is. The official White House website just launched a page called “MySafeSpace” mocking Democrats, featuring racist “jokes” about Hakeem Jeffries and others. This isn’t a campaign site. It’s a .gov domain paid for with your tax dollars.

NY'ers are NY'ers. Where are they going to move? TX? CA? I mean.. really?

.. and why? Because of non-profit grocery stores? "oh the horrors of socialism"

Half of me says "they aren't going anywhere"
followed quickly by "who cares? let them"
They can move Wall St to SC and see how that works out.

I see many of you assuming that they are paid entertainment.

I submit that they are Socialites that care not about politics but only about the next party

And they probably have 1000's of 'followers' who think that everything they do is just amazing and want nothing more but to be part of the scene

I say this every freaking time.

Even if it were true. Even if those people absolutely were going to bring drugs all the way up to the US in that tiny boat... it's still illegal to kill them without due process. Period.

There is no way that any part of this is legal, let alone moral.

As we are so far east in our time zone I adore Daylight Savings time. It's standard time I dislike. Instead of being dark when the kids go to school.. it will be dark when they are coming home.

Notes from ME @notesfromme.bsky.social · 2d

I don't believe that. I really don't.

I don't believe that they are unaware of what they are doing. They just think it's funny. They enjoy "trolling the libs".

They are not inadvertently evil. They are deliberately evil.
