- What a stupid WAPO headline. It’s not about a narrative. It’s about the Trump administration lying about an execution, which was videotaped by dozens of people and shows what happened. Enough of bending over backwards for “both sides” of the story. Do better @wapotechguild.bsky.social
- I will give Suozzi more credit than he gives himself. He knew what the vote was. He just figured the way to "win" was to support the funding because that's more "centrist" and buck the Democratic majority. But morally, he knew what this was about. He ended up wrong morally AND politically.
- Exactly.
- Holy shit, when did I get 372 followers? People actually like my political shouts into the void? Should I be honored or concerned?

- “Minnesota Vikings radio broadcaster taking leave of absence after mocking ICE protestors.” “On Monday, Paul Allen apologized for what he called a ‘cheap one-liner’ in which he called protestors ‘paid’ and wondered aloud if they would get ‘hazard pay’ to be out in inclement weather.”

View full threadYou learned something new every day. The point still remains The Vikings are the 800-pound gorilla in the room, aren’t they? They could request that Mr. Paul be removed. Or do I misunderstand the power dynamic.

- Minnesota Vikings need to fire Paul Allen. I’ve been a Vikings fan since the Purple People Eaters but no more if the team keeps him. That was no one-liner. That’s what he thinks. People are dying in the streets and he thinks they’re getting paid. What a stupid man. @vikings.bsky.social

- None of my boomer friends have become more conservative. Of course I might’ve stopped being friends with them a while ago because I didn’t care for their conversation, but I don’t think so.

- This is long but worth watching because the economic news for the USA is not good. Canada played the tariff debacle well and has come out the winner. Good work, Trump! You sabotaged the car industry here and GM and Ford are in serious trouble.

- The military will not turn against the president. It’s too imbedded in their training and DNA to follow orders. The top guys will resign rather than disobey an order. Completely unpredictable? YES except it’s going to get worse.
- It is happening here. Murder in the streets. Thank you, Minneapolis, for fighting back.

- Ice! Bad news. What state are you in? We still have powdery snow coming down on Long Island but it’s coming down so fast it looks fake … like snow in a movie.
- The story is not that there are two conflicting versions of what happened. The story is that the federal government is lying about what happened. There is plenty of evidence. Your job, our job, is to sift that evidence and describe what actually happened ffs.
- Amen. For shame @wapotechguild.bsky.social
- Van Hollen: "They really think the American people are stupid. I mean, we can all see the video. We saw the video with Renee Good. We saw the video with Alex Pretti. The real domestic terrorists are in the White House right now."

- For sure.
- Today in Hampton Bays, NY: As we stood in support of the people of Minneapolis and against ICE, ICE executed another U.S. citizen in front of dozens of witnesses. Trump’s war against part of the population of this country must end. #Impeach_Trump @indivisible.org @indivisibleli.bsky.social
- Many Americans are stupid and fascists. They will back Trump regardless of what he says or does. They don’t care if people are killed, children are kidnapped or Trump steals money or oil. They don’t seem to care about insurance costs or invading sovereign nations or allies.

- I said the same thing!!! The NRA’s mantra is, “It’s the second amendment that protects the first.”

- I and @chilltowntv.bsky.social knew where we were headed because we paid attention for decades. Immediately after Trump was elected, we predicted concentration camps, secret police and other horrors. He told us he was a racist/fascist and demonstrated it for years. I am sick at ICE’s brutality.

- Minneapolis:YOU ARE AN INSPIRATION!!! @indivisible.org @indivisibleli.bsky.social East End Visibility and Indivisible Long Island in Riverhead, NY, showed support for Minnesota. Lots of honks in support. Thank you! (A few gestures and language from MAGA who apparently were raised in a barnyard.)

- Thanks for pointing this out. Took them 10 years to recognize the threat. Yea, yea, they’ve had stories on Trump’s behavior and idiocy but most of them have pulled punches, translating his babble into presidential language. bsky.app/profile/anne...

- Why do world leaders continue to discuss Trump as if he has strategies and policies? When asked about Trump, the first thing out of their mouths should be, “Trump is not a serious person. He is a fascist, a bully and not very bright.” It is so far past time to attack him personally from all sides.
- Question. If Joe Biden called Greenland, “Iceland” four times…. What would the right be saying?

- While we’re at it, let’s abolish Kristi Noem too!
- I rarely attack someone’s looks other than Trump, but I am so tired of seeing this Nazi in costume with her botoxed, filled-in sneering face. Trump found the dregs of society and gave them limitless power as long as they followed their master.
