The reason I am here is Twitter was a dumpster fire, Post went nowhere , Threads is Meta and Bluesky is a breath of fresh air. I am a blue dot in a beautiful blue state hoping the world will re-align to a more caring place.

Bad Bunny isn't an immigrant...
The Super Bowl halftime show, with Bad Bunny showcasing Latin music before a global television audience expected to top 100 million, will illustrate the nation’s immigration divide whether or not the reggaeton star delivers an explicit political message.

The halftime show will illustrate the nation’s immigration divide whether or not the reggaeton star makes an explicit message about Trump’s deportation drive.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

All 10 shots were fired AFTER they removed the gun from Pretti’s waist. Every single shot was fired after he was disarmed.

The way it should be stated is: Trump supporters are murdering innocent protesters in the streets while trying to protect their neighbors.

History will remember this weekend as Hennepin Hill. The hill that the Republicans died on, where their illegitimate secret police force lost the Battle of Minneapolis to a mom and VA nurse who were both US citizens & died believing in the rights afforded to them in Constitution of the United States

Donald Trump called up Greg Abbott and demanded more MAGA seats in Congress.
He thought we’d be good little Democrats and respond with an op-ed.
Not this time, buddy.
FAFO.

The problem is not that we can’t impeach the president. Although we can and should. The real problem is that we can’t impeach Stephen Miller because we never elected or confirmed him.

You can tell Stephen Miller spent entirely too much time listening to Hitler's speeches. His emotional cadence mimics it without the Meth, which is why he can't emote it as well - he's simply a poser with twisted values and not a drug addled maniac in the middle of a 72 hour bender 🤷🏼♂️
