Nobody has to agree with me but, no, I'm not going to debate, argue, or insult.

And if I sense trolling, rusbots or orcs, you're gone from my world.
Anyone who has a Twitter account as well, should post a Bluesky sign-up link once a week. Add, if needed, an outrageous tweet by some wealthy moron as an incentive to leave.
LEAVE Twitter already, folks. Get the fuck off there.
The only surefire way to stop oligarchs buying up the things we love is to drop those things the moment oligarchs buy them & that requires changing habits and massive self-discipline.
It means going to alternatives that might not be quite as good or convenient.
It’s really hard. But there it is.

It just has to be said. These conservative judges are acting as though they can rewrite the American legal system of checks and balances as a deranged moron and his handlers see fit. They have no sense of the mood of the country for this sort of arrogance and corrupttion?

So the question is... does the Supreme Court still protect the Constitution or not?
It starts with knowing the truth. Don’t allow yourselves to be gaslit into believing this is a real question.

If it's wearing off of MAGA, yes. But the GOP is STILL so cowardly, traumatised and confused, they aren't taking action yet. What's going to be the tipping point?
The trance is wearing off.

Trump, dumb as a board, isn't going to listen to anybody. Let the GOP SINKING begin.
The polling guru showed how Trump risks dooming the GOP in the midterms if he continues to insist that concerns about affordability are a “hoax.”

For some of these people the mid-terms doesn't just mean unemployment, but jail.

TN07 is a story about gerrymandering: the GOP cracked Nashville into 3 districts when it redrew the 2022 map, destroying the Dem seat there.

Fast-forward: a section of Nashville, which just 5 years ago had a Dem representative, is now voting Dem by huge margins but it's been designed to not matter.

It's very possible there could be one impeachment followed by another. As for Newsom, we'll see. But whoever it is...

We'd better... ALL... be ALL IN !

Here is one of the latest projections for the mid-terms, and it explains why Republicans are squirming and would even consider impeaching Trump beforehand. For damage control.

I'm not afraid projections like this will make people complacent. People are FED UP. And know: they're voting out EVIL.
