I'm here cuz the other place sucked and probably tossed the election to the orange cult leader. Convince me I'm wrong. Also, if your feed is blank or has a few posts with cute memes, I'm not following.

This list is hardly exhaustive but some good Dems on this list ready to make good trouble. There are some other people who are "politically adjacent" and in the fight.

The vast majority of us (by huge percentages) are closer to needing/using SNAP than dancing in the new monstrosity of an event space in DC.

As of 2023, approximately 35.4% of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) beneficiaries in the United States were white. 89.4% of SNAP recipients are U.S.-born citizens, with less than 11% being foreign-born.

The wandering to the right -- my bluesky experts say it's clearly a sign of a left side stroke. Google it -- other symptoms track too.

We discuss weakening oversight and limiting congressional access as a way to strip away independent checks in our recent Assessment on Democratic Decline.

NEW: ICE says it no longer has to provide Congress access to detention facilities — thanks to the shutdown.

That requirement was part of the appropriations law that expired last month — and now operations are funded by Trump’s megabill.

I love how you said that even though everyone who reads “judge speak” knows that’s exactly what she’s saying 😆

👋 Texan here -- it's absolutely why we want him arrested, imprisoned and out of our lives forever. Even his so-called wife doesn't want him. His girlfriend already has a house he bought her. She's probs done with him too.

My advice: Go on @jimmykimmel.com @jimmyfallon.bsky.social and/or @colbertlateshow.bsky.social to get to real Americans. No one will watch him in Congress. These three are running the best news platforms in the US right now.

Drifting to his right again. Everyone's speculating on left side stroke -- so drifting right is just an F47 hiccup? Or does it mean something, ya think?

texastwinkie.bsky.social @texastwinkie.bsky.social · 1d

My only question: Will it hit Mar-A-Wacko. I feel horribly for everyone else but not for the slobs who hang out w F47.

texastwinkie.bsky.social @texastwinkie.bsky.social · 1d

As someone said elsewhere: You (yes. you) are closer to needing SNAP than becoming a millionaire or billionaire who needs tax breaks. Act accordingly.

Nothing says "we're not going to be shipping as many packages over Xmas and into the new year" like UPS laying off workers.

The 700 page book is incredible reading. FWIW they didn't get all the Nazis. We need to make sure every single person, down to the asst to the asst deputy level is called into account.

It would take 3 SCOTUS justices or 20-ish GOP senators or 1 House leader to make it thus -- and yet to find 30 brave GOPers in DC to save this country is impossible.

texastwinkie.bsky.social @texastwinkie.bsky.social · 2d

Honestly -- I think his closet is so packed with skeletons he doesn't dare let anyone else's skeletons roam free.

👋 From a cattle family ... We were doing great until F47 torpedoed the immigration plan 18 months ago and started hunting down undocumented feedlot workers, packing plants consolidated under a couple companies and our water supplies are being sucked up by data mining centers. But do continue...

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.
