I know, that's why I bowed out. It's a stressful time and it's easy to read things the wrong way, but let's save our ire for the goons attacking angelenos

I campaigned for the competent Black woman.

I meant the cops/paramilitary. This is BlueSky. We're all on the same side

On top of everything else, they're going to set LA on fire again. So sad for what has become of America.

I'm teaching a DH class, and I have this conversation regularly: well, where did you save the file to? * Blank stare* what did you name it? *Blank stare* why not create a folder to...oh, never mind

Prove to us you will fight for Democracy, Senator Durbin. What legislative steps can be taken besides stating displeasure? How can the Senate Democrats use the attention they have to clearly message to the country as large how dangerous this is? Give us something to get behind.

I've listened to this interview 4x already. @michelmartinnpr.bsky.social is exactly what every journalist should be. Cool, collected, and unwilling to be sent off track. [ Also, I assume Troy Edgar now defecates from a novel hole, bc she ripped him a new one]

As a constituent, THANK YOU. Please push Senator Durbin to make a similar statement and continue to speak to your Democratic colleagues who are on the fence. We're begging our representatives not to cede the power of Congress as a co-equal member of government.

Like the others, I've called and can't get through, emailed and faxed you. NO on cloture, NO on the so-called CR. The government is already in shut down and this CR cedes enormous power to Musk and Trump. Democrats need to assert the power of Congress as a co-equal branch of government.

The State of the People live cast was awesome: interviewed most of them after they walked out
