@radiofreetom.bsky.social is Worth a retweet after the week our President has had.

Ellen Braaten @ellenbraaten.bsky.social · 11d

New piece from @radiofreetom.bsky.social answers the question: What does “nothingburger” have to do with
“utterly embarrassing”
“not okay”
“more confused”
“lost in the halls of history”
“usual grievances, lies, and misrepresentation”
“obsessions”
&
“unhinged”

It’s….sobering and also a great read

The Commander in Chief Is Not Okay

Trump put on a disturbing show for America’s generals and admirals.

Did people actually believe Trump during his campaign, or did they just love the permission he gave them to be racist?

Trump on loop: “They’re stealing your jobs.”

If that were true, why aren’t Americans lining up to take those so-called “stolen” jobs?

Every Trump voter needs to see this.

People tend to forget that this is the THIRD shutdown that happened when Trump was President and Republicans controlled both the House and Senate.

If you add it all up, the government has been closed for 1 out of every 37 days Trump has been President.

NO ONE SHOULD BE ABLE TO LIE WITH IMPUNITY

Ignorant undereducated ill- informed, those unable to form independent thought can not grasp the BS being spewed….They are MAGA, GOP & Christian white Nationalists and are not capable, just not smart enough to get that these are fabricated lies.

Do you consider yourself conservative or libertarian? Trump’s attacks on renewables:

* Attack free markets
* Stifle innovation
* Take lives
* Eliminate jobs
* Raise energy costs
* Harm national security

This regime is not on your side either.

www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Trump’s hatred for renewables means the US is falling behind the rest of the world

As well as embracing ‘beautiful coal’, the president has set about obliterating clean energy projects

My point I hope is clear. Bondi & Mike Johnson are saying we are Antifa- like it doesn’t mean Anti-Fascist, but a violent gang. No. We are “We the People” of the United States of America and we want to keep our Constitution intact. Hate groups attack us like ICE, Proud Boys, KKK, & Billionaires.

There is no leader of Antifa.
There is no girlfriend of the leader of Antifa.

They are creating imaginary people so they can justify going after real people.

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

NEW: Reporting from @politico.com reveals that the White House is ramping up its pressure campaign to gerrymander red states, going as far as promising “consequences” to Republican lawmakers who don’t fall in line.
