Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."

Read the comments on this thread and you’ll get why having an armed populace wing cut it when you’re trying to run an authoritarian government.

Gun rights folks are seething. They want Pam Bondi fired. And I gotta say - I don’t blame them.

This is a concerning trend, and the direct result of Trump. We need to be talking to both our young daughters and sons.

Spread the word if you have friends in Missouri or Ohio! Help is needed.

Guardrails of Democracy @demguardrails.bsky.social · 2d

MO & OH Dems need us to help Rally support!

A commissioned poll shows nearly 1/2 of MO voters oppose the maps

The Dem committee needs over 100,000 valid signatures across multiple congressional districts before the state’s 90-day window expires on Dec. 11 to let voters decide on the maps.

Missouri Democrats have an opportunity to block a new congressional map. They say they’re largely on their own.

Despite relatively little investment from Washington, Missouri and Ohio Democrats are looking to block new Republican-drawn maps through uncertain avenues.

Retribution and vengeance….that’s all he cares about. Oh and making money for himself.

So if the tactic is to make Democrats vote Republican next time because if we don’t he is going to hurt us. Fuck that.

Propaganda. Yeah, we’re at that point in the fascism process.

Is anyone surprised by this? I’m not. I knew we’d be less safe under this administration.

Today in Politics Chat, I talked about how power sloshes around when a president is checked out, and noted that right now unelected officials like Stephen Miller are trying to grab it. But instead, We the People can take it back and create a better nation.

The GOP Speaker sent Congress home -
even though most Republicans want to keep ACA tax credits:

✅ 59% GOP
✅ 57% MAGA
✅ 70% non-MAGA

Rural + self-employed Americans rely on ACA coverage.

Republicans want affordable care.

Trump’s team doesn’t care.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

Booooo! Oscar Piastri contribute more Constructors Cup points and got short changed here!

Angela Levine @angelahlevine.bsky.social · 8d

Oscar is smart to not say too much. He’s a mature driver, and he knows what’s good or not good for his public image and career.

Angela Levine @angelahlevine.bsky.social · 8d

Yes!!!!!

Angela Levine @angelahlevine.bsky.social · 8d

Yes it sure feels that way. I’m Team #Piastri all the way and it’s so frustrating!

Angela Levine @angelahlevine.bsky.social · 8d

Yeah I hate that Oscar is being left out of this narrative.

Angela Levine @angelahlevine.bsky.social · 10d

How about if the media asks better questions? Seriously!
