Kept hearing about the "Hate American Rallies" from the Republicans before the protests. Wondering now what the messaging will be about the protests now that they've happened... crickets, perhaps?

Yeah, just like Russia is letting Ukrainian troops it captures that survived an attack are doing. Letting them go.

Tell the pastor who got shot in the head with a pepper ball. Tell Jimmy Kimmel that.

This coming from a guy that think "groceries" is an ancient word that means things in bags.

Reject the evidence of your eyes and ears....

Why won't you talk about it, Mike? What are you afraid of? If it is so beautiful, you'd want to share it with everyone.

Gregory @gkasabian.bsky.social · 2d

Is that polling in the room with us now, Mike?

Gregory @gkasabian.bsky.social · 2d

Is this a "pick his brain" signing, Mike? Maybe a little bit of gamesmanship sprinkled in?

Happy to pass along that Robby was released from custody a few hours later. I'm guessing that a lawsuit will be considered.

Gregory @gkasabian.bsky.social · 3d

I'm happy to pass along that Boston's own Robbie Roadsteamer aka Rob Potylo was released from custody hours later. One of the most fearless and caring perfomance artist activists around.

I'm pretty sure this was me at the bar before I got sober.

He's smarter than that. He's appealing to ignorance and narcissism. You know, MAGA.

I'd love to think it's compassion but believe it's more self-preservation with regards to her constituents keeping her in office. That said, it's how it's supposed to work with regards to representing your constituents.

America first, amiright?

Gregory @gkasabian.bsky.social · 8d

Is it fair to frame it as Republicans are basically holding America hostage unless Democrats pay their ransom?
