Feel free to add your own ideas for reforming Congress!

1. We should pay Congress critters based on the median income in their states. When they make crap money, they might actually work for real job growth, real income growth so that their salary increases, too. #ReformCongress

Couldn't listen to his grating voice. Paused the video. This is where it paused. Perfection.

They probably all think there is a submissive tradwife somewhere for them if they can just make enough money.

He's confused again. He was actually talking to his hummus.

50501: The People’s Movement ❌👑 @50501movement.bsky.social · 10h

The secret power of a people’s movement is that it’s random.

It’s neighbors protecting immigrants from ICE. It’s millions canceling Disney+. It’s a man throwing a sandwich. It’s inflatable frogs dancing.

Dictators struggle to fight a movement, because they can’t do what they want most—control us.

Question for lawyers out there (as if anyone really sees my posts :D ): Assuming we get to prosecute DHS/ICE agents for the illegal crap they are doing, I'm guessing the masks could make prosecution difficult. However, could some sort of conspiracy be charged as we'd know their assigned locations?

That Young Republicans could be members up to age 40 surprised me actually.

Exactly. Cue the, “They were just joking. Being edgy like young people do.” posts.

"These logs were sourced by way of extortion and provided to POLITICO by the very same people conspiring against me.”

Maybe if you had never said/wrote them in the first place, you wouldn't have to be bothered with all this. Hoisted by your own petard, idiot.

I got put on a list that blocks "Users that misname Americans ("USian, USAmerican")." So, me being USian and preferring my Venezuelan wife's Spanish "estadounidense," and pointing out all of N. and S. America is America makes me a bigot. Glad to be a member! Are all Spanish speakers on the list?

Kudos to @michaeldeibert.bsky.social for a detailed look at the struggle in Venezuela and a realistic look at why applying purity tests to people casting about for any help whatsoever for their people is not helpful at all and is seriously myopic.

My thoughts on Venezuela’s María Corina Machado and the Nobel Peace Prize. michaeldeibert.substack.com/p/what-if-it...

What if It Was Your Country?

Those criticizing the awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to Venezuela’s María Corina Machado might take a moment to meditate on what the nation has lived through over the last 20 years.

She definitely was anti-Netanyahu. She ghosted one or two of his speeches that a VP usually would have attended, and she openly supported stopping non-defensive weapon shipments and increasing food and medicine relief -- which Bibi nixed. But people ignored that and sat out or voted Stein.

Congress passed the Disaster Recovery Personal Protection Act in 2006 to protect against gun seizures. Since the Trump administratration is a disaster, maybe this act applies?

I hope it's to tell him Ukraine is getting tons of assistance from the EU and other NATO members now, so this is just a courtesy call to say, "Bite me."

Yes, I know, they still need our help, but Trump is pure chaos and unreliable. Hopefully we can fix that ASAP.

They had to allow Palestinians to move back into Gaza because they needed cheap labor for Trump's "Riviera of the Middle East" as pushed by his son-in-law Kushner.

Reason #427 why ICE is out of control.

When we take back the government, Democrats need to realize reconciliation isn’t enough. These people need to be prosecuted for their crimes, which are often a crimes against humanity.

And because your myopic politics can’t fathom what it takes to politick trying to move a murderous leader like Netanyahu, we now live in an authoritarian state. The non-voters were the bigger issue, but you helped get us here. Having fun with that? You won’t see this because I’m blocking you, so 🤷‍♂️.

dementuschikan 🇻🇪🇺🇦 @dementuschikan.bsky.social · 2d

Doesn’t Mamdani want to create a mental health squad of sorts to respond to some calls when police are too much? If so this will make it easier to find the funds to pay their salaries.

… the guy whose son-in-law had already publicly spoke of plans to turn Gaza into the Trump Riviera, a billionaire’s paradise. In the end, though, it was apathy and GOP voting laws which brought down participation and won Trump his dictatorship rather than anything you or I did. And here we are.

She was against Netanyahu and what was happening in Gaza. She boycotted his speech to Congress and snubbed him several times. She backed Biden stopping delivery of offense weapons to Israel. You decided to ignore all that and work against her in favor of…

dementuschikan 🇻🇪🇺🇦 @dementuschikan.bsky.social · 3d

They’re doing that anyway. ICE has already killed people. And the security statement Trump signed already makes free speech a crime. We are already beyond the stage of them trying to provoke us so they can kill us.
