She is trying to avoid going to prison with the rest of her party when the house of cards topples. She has no moral compass, just self preservation like most of Congress.

Call them out every time they lie(constantly) and shut them down when they try to change the subject or blame someone else for their own idiocy.

@retrocomps.bsky.social Not sure how retro it is but I just resurrected an old Acer Aspire One netbook using Antix Linux.

Google me. I have done more than my fair share and paid a heavy price already. I am also growing very weary of the do nothing wrong of the Democrats. Unless the party unites in opposition to Trump, nothing will change.

We need a modern Edward R. Murrow. For the most part, U.S. corporate media has been silent about the constant stream of power abuses the current regime continues to create.

Robert Reich @rbreich.bsky.social · 15h

CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow embodied what a journalist should be: someone who holds power to account instead of capitulating to it.

Over 70 years later, his segment denouncing Joe McCarthy’s congressional witch hunts rings truer than ever.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Since the house proves that it is completely useless, maybe it is time that we shut it down permanently and for another legislative body that A. Actually works and B. Is actually accountable to the people.

MAGA doesn't acknowledge anyone who has a uterus or darker skin than copy paper as citizens with constitutional rights.

In spite of the insurrection, enough morons voted for Trump that he is now our dictator. He is no president.

Donald received bribes from Qatar, possibly in coordination with Pam Bondi and the FBI, and other law enforcement agencies looked the other way. They didn't start an investigation.

Why not? It isn't a nice gesture but it certainly isn't illegal, yet.

Craig Sicknick @jan6risingvoice.bsky.social · 1d

If we did that, we would have to come up with some sort of voluntary relocation plan for the current residents that are not MAGA, especially any people of color as the MAGA crowd would go back to white pointed hoods and lynchings.
