Birds of a feather! Figures that they both think, or thought, their asses deserved a thrown! Tracks, too, since they both are/were full of it, and reign(ed) over it like gold!

That was convenient. I’m basically healthy with minor issues that most people my age have to watch for longevity! Honestly are the day when you really didn’t pay attention so closely. I guess it is good but so much data all the time from everywhere!

Weighing whether I want to record things myself on a daily basis or what the next step is because without any warnings at all, my health app went nuts! Prior today all my data automatically sent to my Doc.

Gov. Pritzker is right. Pres, Trump’s approval rating would probably go up if he got rid of Steven Miller!

Governor JB Pritzker @govpritzker.illinois.gov · 14d

The people around Donald Trump are taking advantage of his diminished capacity to break the law.

Whatever they do now, we won’t forget — and we will hold them accountable.

The excellent @hcrichardson.bsky.social points out that sending $40 billion to a foreign government (Argentina) without Congressional authorization is in fact wildly illegal. As is anything taxpayers didn't have a say in. #NoKings

Yesterday the Trump administration announced it would pay furloughed troops by using funds Congress appropriated for research, development, testing, and evaluation (RDTE) for fiscal year 2026.

Please I'm begging people to share this with your friends if you're still on twt/x and get the hell outta there.

Elon Musk on X quoting a question about how the X algorithm works. He posts on October 17, 2025 at 12:07 PM:
The X recommendation system is evolving very rapidly. We are aiming for deletion of all heuristics within 4 to 6 weeks.

Grok will literally read every post and watch every video (100M+ per day) to match users with content they're most likely to find interesting.

This should address the new user or small account problem, where you post something great, but nobody sees it.

We will also be adding the ability for you to adjust your feed temporarily or permanently just by asking Grok.

make up for tax cuts they just gave to billionaires, when Jesus said of the Pharisees & the teachers of the jaw:

“They pile heavy burdens on people's shoulders and won't lift a finger to help.”

It’s GOP legislators who are not acting to protect US interests. We should target them as complicit in Trump’s fascism! How?

You can’t get more pathetic than that! Why isn’t being President of the U.S.A enough for him? Maybe bc he cheated like he was accusing Joe Biden of doing. Makes a person wonder! He could try being the best President that ever served but he shows no empathy for Americans in need of WIC or SNAP.

Sandralyn Pierce @apiercingtruth.bsky.social · 1d

Because of inflation, we are now divided in this country by the “haves” and “have nots.” And more and more, the Republicans (GOP) are the party of “haves” and Democrats are the Party of “have nots.” Thus, the Republicans are aristocrats and Democrats are the working middle-class and the poor.

who it is in this country who are the Aristocrats (GOP) saying “let them eat cake!” They are called Republicans!

Democrats tried to pass a stand alone Bill to pay WIC & SNAP during the govt shutdown down, but the GOP stood in the way! So, all you people who rely on WIC & SNAP, when you go to the polls, remember

#RepublicanCoup For shame. Their plan is to let the poor starve. Republicans are a bunch of immoral boobs! Their mantra: “LetThePoorStarve”

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) declaring he won't call the House of Representatives into session until JANUARY at the earliest, means this isn't a shut-down.
This is a #RepublicanCOUP.

Pritzker: "I sent a letter to Kristi Noem and to DHS leadership asking them to pause all of their federal agent operations for the entirety of the Halloween weekend. I'm asking for basic human decency. I think their response will be revealing. Give the children and families of Illinois a break."

Wow! It’s not even close. Food banks can’t keep up with the need…

Question: “How long is this sustainable.”

Food bank director: “It’s not… for every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There’s no way we can meet that gap.”
