My poems write themselves with a hidden hand
Me, a mere conduit for a higher power’s demand
Each word unfolding like opening a door
To subtle import, revealing a new score

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

I’m still shocked that stories like this which come out daily still get largely ignored. The most corrupt person to ever hold any public office in US history. I will keep posting them every day and try to amplify them, even when most media doesn’t care. www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

Whoops! @RepJohnRose (R) blames Senate Republicans for the shutdown and admits to @jaketapper.bsky.social they’re using people as “pawns” and “leverage”, calling it “deplorable”

Wow! It’s not even close. Food banks can’t keep up with the need…

Question: “How long is this sustainable.”

Food bank director: “It’s not… for every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There’s no way we can meet that gap.”

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

The Constitution does not permit the executive to punish or retaliate against states for lawfully exercising sovereign powers reserved for the states, as President Trump and the executive branch have unlawfully done here,” Weiser writes in a 21-page complaint.

I couldn’t create this as I have been. Trump & MAGA are Starving Millions of America’s Children only Because they’re this Evil! If only children could sing, dance, fear No Food Insecurity & receive a globally enviable Public Education! Use Your Voices! youtu.be/NjfHGWucno8?... go.bsky.app/RrndBuv

They must expect a lot of people all over the country to be really upset about something next year. I wonder what that could be?

For every one meal a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides 9. Food banks cannot bridge the gap if SNAP benefits aren’t available.

"Bang, Bang liberal you're dead"

This is what a Border Patrol badge had to say to Chris Gentry.

A US Veteran, who was peacefully protesting.

Moments later the Gestapo unleashed chaos upon hundreds of peaceful protestors in Chicago.

Are we great yet?🫣

He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.

Remove him from office.
