There’s a plan for everyone to watch the Michelle Obama documentary, Becoming on Netflix this weekend so it becomes the #1 movie on Netflix. On Melania’s opening weekend. Please Pass it on. Shes now ranked #8 on Netflix!
- Reposted by refugeepatThe only reason we’ve been blocked from holding the highest office or having a majority in any governmental branch is to protect these wretchedly evil men who are addicted to money, who get off on our suffering, and who delight in sexually assaulting little girls and boys.

Women would hunt down and take out every single one of these predators and make sure they never saw the light of day again. Women would stop wars, have book clubs, create farms for pets, love everyone, and NURTURE HUMANITY.
- Reposted by refugeepat🧵 Wanna know why we’ve never had a female president? Why women are said to be too emotional to hold office? Why Kamala was mocked, belittled, and patronized while she was running for the presidency? It’s because women PROTECT children. Women stand up for what is right. @bittersouth.bsky.social

- Reposted by refugeepatThe most convincing arguments for vaccines, are the consequences when you seed distrust. South Carolina has confirmed that some children in their outbreak of over 800 cases have developed brain swelling—encephalitis can lead to permanent damage. 2026 is projected worse year for measles in decades.

- Reposted by refugeepatTwo days ago, we discovered Trump has engaged in the most corrupt behavior of any president in history—giving secret technology to China's ally in exchange for the Trump family getting half a billion dollars. And nobody is still talking about it. #Corruption www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

- Reposted by refugeepatI agree there should be clear “no-go” donors. The NRA is an obvious one. But a blanket “no PAC, no corporate, no big donor ever” rule for all candidates is a fantasy. What matters is independence and consistency. If someone sells out, expose them. Fair game. 14.
- Reposted by refugeepatWhen TX Dems famously left the state together in 2021 to block quorum, Talarico was one of the first to return. It caused friction w/in his caucus. Not a moral judgment, but it’s relevant. It’s interesting how loudly people talk about “purity” while skipping over that part of the record. 8.
- Reposted by refugeepatI’m not a Texan, but it’s hard to ignore what’s happening in the Democratic Senate primary in the state. We’re all clocking it, right? Let’s start with what should be obvious: whoever wins the Democratic nomination, we Dems should support him or her. 🧵
- Reposted by refugeepatHear me out democratic lawmakers including @captmarkkelly.bsky.social & @gallego.senate.gov: Steve Bannon & the GOP are threatening to surround voting places this Nov for midterms to intimidate voters. (Illegal I might add). Defund ICE until AT LEAST after the elections. #Pinks #ProudBlue #OneV1
- Democrats want tighter warrant requirements and banning masks on ICE agents; GOP wants to go after sanctuary cities. They have 10 days to come to a deal or else DHS will run out of funding and shut down. Hmmm…. #ProudBlueVoices4Victory #OneV1 apple.news/AmgwwVss3RF6...

- Reposted by refugeepatThe Secret Service visited me over my Stephen Miller posts. One in particular they took umbrage with was when I said I’d rather live next door to an undocumented immigrant living in a house made out of Miller’s corpse than I would a MAGA. The local cop accompanying them laughed at that one.

Democracy dies in oligarchy.
