The call is coming from inside the house! Again. The fight of our lives is here. No time for cat-napping. Re-establishing from that “other” place. #ResistanceTheSequel #DoNotObeyInAdvance #FBR (NO DMs, No Crypto, No Porn. No FB if you haven’t posted)

I’ve posted on that ‘other’ site 8 yrs. Never gave in to buying a blue check. I posted on what I believed in, and on conversations in various disciplines (politics, sports, cinema, kitties) even as it became increasingly hostile. I established on @bsky.app last year in case the worst became real.

I’m angry it seems that the media and Democratic leaders aren’t as angry and concerned as I am.

The East Wing of the White House exists no more.
It’s totally obliterated.
It remains only in our memories, images, and videos.
(From ABC News). Bonus: in the shot u can see the paved over Rose Garden. What a beast.

One of the main reasons why this country is in the
Authoritarian shitter rn, is because so many people before this day who wielded some power and who we had every right to rely on to do the right thing in the face of injustice - hell, just to do their fu#king jobs - failed to do so.

And here we are

I think Trump is aiming to eventually demo the entire White House, here’s why:
(1) he’s already tearing down the *entire* East Wing per NBC News and others. Possibly as soon as this weekend.
(2) the ballroom is going to be so massive that the rest of the WH will not look right next to it. The

You got it all correct except for the “it remains irreplaceable in many ways”’part.

it remains irreplaceable in many ways. but it takes my breath away the sheer corruption and power-set values that animate the Times

Those with sharp eyes might detect a subtle difference in NYT play last month of an event in one city, w 100,000+ attendees, versus play this morning of some 2500+ events w many millions of attendees, in all 50 states.

See if you can spot it! /s

Then you can find today's story on p A23

Front page of NYT on September 22, 2025, with large top-of-page photo of a Charlie Kirk memorial service, and the lead page-one story on the same topic.

Front page of today's NYT, Oct 19, with no story about the nationwide protests, and a "below the fold" montage of two photos, and a link to a story on page 23.

No idea when Chris wrote it. I would think, tho, that the NYT op-ed page editor and staff curate and control “printing” of pieces.

Skeeter Bombay @skeeterbombay.bsky.social · 6d

I am not blaming Chris for this — once again, corporate media’s timing (the New York Times — *again*) is impeccable. And intentional, perhaps, on when they posted this piece.

Thank you!

Trump has been “campaigning” his entire life. For POTUS, since the early 2000s.
I do appreciate the advice for the Harris/Walz campaign which lasted all of 107 fucking days from start to finish.
For painful reasons I hope Dems have learned from.
I hope.
And yeah tv ads have been dead for years.

Skeeter Bombay @skeeterbombay.bsky.social · 6d

Days like today when Americans unite to stand up in peaceful protest against a wannabe-king who IS a cruel coward, make me love my country all-the-more.

Trump has a taste for blood. As many sociopaths do.

As DOW, NASDAQ, and S&P futures all continue their southward plunge from Friday (and more Trump Tariff madness), here’s your reminder that the Wall Street Whales and Sharks *always* make their money — whether the market is up or down.

We survive on their scraps.

Don’t worry. The SCOTUS will reflect and have a sudden change of heart on all of this Unitary Executive kingship shit — as soon as the next Democrat is in the White House.
If that ever, ever happens again, no thanks to those monstrous, Roberts-led begowned clowns.

The “Ice Officers” bribed, er… recruited into Herr Trump’s and DHS Barbie’s private army have not been “professionally” trained. They would never meet standards military or LE qualifications, but do have a thirst to cosplay “Call of Duty” against our own people for cash bonuses.

Don’t blame our leaders if the US military begins committing war crimes or attacking American civilians. Blame the women who laughed at Pete Hegseth during sex.

Continued video of feds gassing protestors and CPD alike. In the chaos one woman came to a CPD officer asking for help for a relative that she says feds just grabbed.

Officer response: "We just clocked in. We don't know what's going on."
