this white house actively treats a large swath of americans as disloyal and outside the political community and it doesn’t merit so much as a peep from the political press

This regime is moving fast & breaking all the things.

I just wanna be able to vote the next time.

I’m being optimistic for myself & my family.

So I’m watching #slowhorses their mission, a group destabilizing the country.

That’s what’s happening here, but it more like a coup.

Ace Frehley of KISS passed. I liked KISS. And now “I wanna rock and roll all nite and party every day.” Is in my head. A 50 year old song 🫢
Back in the day radio played everybody!

RIP condolences to the fans 🕊️

I was thinking about the cashier who told me she doesn’t vote before the election. Wonder how she’s doing?
Some use religion to explain why they don’t vote.
If your religion tells you not to vote then you need to find out why.

Soon it would have been our 30th anniversary and I remember the Million Man March and it was a gorgeous day just like today. My Husband didn’t attend we would be married within weeks. 1995 was a beautiful year 💜

Of course they are not going to kill Bill, he’s probably is going to end up locked in body with evil Hayley lurking and his eyes moving from side to side like HELP! #beyondthegates

How to find happiness is within you.

If I told my story you all would wonder how can she say that.

You have to find a way to be peaceful in your self.

There is a balance so that means sometimes you will be angry.

That’s is okay. You have to use energy too. #nokings

Scott Bessentt & his billionaire friends have investment in Argentina & @mrlamontking.bsky.social they are getting $40 billion.

It’s a smack in the face to all Americans. We really need Rs to understand that having 1 party rule will not favor them either.

This a coup.

Russell Vought is violating the law but we have no independence between the WH & the DOJ.

Dr Asamoah the Rs are working a coup.IMHO democrats in Congress are still
holding to the norms.

It’s not complete & that’s why 2026 is so important.

He wants total submission to his authority.

Here is the thing, he will use violence bc it’s the government this is the difference.

In the past the Feds came to the defense civil rights when the states were too brutal.

It may actually be the opposite today. You must be ready for that.

Expand the Supreme Court.

It's corrupt and rancid and taken over by right-wing hacks groomed by billionaires.

What more do you need to see?

Currently democrats always need more voters to win than republicans. Dems represent more people.

We have a type of minority rule now bc republicans represent less people & more land.

Trumpism is making it worse.

The Louisiana v Callais was the most exciting thing on yesterday. @janainelson.bsky.social was excellent. Man I really I could be there to see her argue.

@africanacarr.bsky.social we just saw what happened in New Orleans for mayors race.

The candidate that Gary Chambers backed “whites” didn’t win.

The truth is Caucasian Dems when presented with a choice may not vote for AAs.

Thus we still need section 2 of the VRA.

👉DID YOU KNOW? The Telehealth Modernization Act of 2024 was voted UNANIMOUSLY BIPARTISAN out of committee (unheard of these days) in December 2024 (& previous votes were also UNANIMOUSLY BIPARTISAN).

BUT IT NEVER MADE IT TO THE FLOOR. Speaker Johnson wanted it to be held FOREVER tethered to the CR!
