Bluesky is cheaper than therapy. All pedantic poets, MAGA morons, Dem establishment apologists & wokesplainers - feel free to ignore me.

Democracy dies with the euphemisms of milquetoast "journalists."

I am shocked that US media still insists on playing the same old tune while the Titanic sinks.

I'm one of those people, but I don't think we would have to strike for an extended period IF we are able to coordinate across the board and truly disrupt the system.

They are counting on average working Americans to be too scared, apathetic or poor to fight back.

National General Strike

One financial criminal pardoning another financial criminal. When you're GOP, "they let you do it."

Bob,

Don't you think the ONLY chance we have to save our democracy is an organized nationwide General Strike?

They don't care about protests. They don't care if Americans die. They don't care about the law & have no shame.

They only care about the flow of money & controlling their "wage slaves."

I knew the guardrails were off, but I underestimated the speed at which the Arkham Asylum Klown Posse would drive us over the cliff.

Yet the media and Dem establishment still coyly ask: "Why would he defer to Putin?" &
"Why would he give billions to Argentina?"

Playing the game as Titanic sinks.

Not being even vaguely sarcastic:

At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

We need an official Blue State Coalition including daily video Threat Briefings to the nation.

It is beyond time to form a shadow government, create an organized communication structure, and meet with military leaders to discuss the elephant in the room: will they refuse illegal orders?

Great comment but meaningless unless GOP holds actual "lawmakers" accountable for the vile abuses that they are supporting by enabling Trump & Stephen Miller.

The 2025 Ebola outbreak in Kasai, DRC, is caused by a virus virtually identical (>99.5%) to the one from Yambuku in 1976.
Half a century later, the genome hasn’t changed. That’s not supposed to happen with an RNA virus.

On Sept 4, 2025, DR Congo declared its 16th Ebola virus outbreak. The epicentre of this outbreak occurred in the Kasai province—the first resurgence in this region since 2008.1 Genomic analysis identi...

I have always felt that the best tributes make me regret that I didn't have the opportunity to meet the person in real life.

Sandy sounds like someone we would have loved to know! 💖

Pepper is adorable, and I am not at all jealous that she is living a better life than I am. Good for her! ❤️❤️❤️

My doggo Pepper turned 8 today. She’s had a really tough year; she had a stroke in may but she fully recovered and we’ve since taken some epic trips to Banff and the redwood forest and Great Basin NP

Thank you, CA. I wish half the country didn't want to kill the rest of us for the crime of being sick.

Can Speaker Johnson keep the House in recess indefinitely?

Because that ludicrous scenario could be what we're facing.

General strike is our only hope. Shut it all down.

But it will take sacrifice and coordination - unless everyone clearly understands the danger, not enough people will be willing to do what it takes.

Auntie Vigilante For Democracy @auntievigilante.bsky.social · 2d

Dems haven't been strategic and we are paying the price. If left-leaning organizations would provide telecommuting opportunities, younger people would flock to areas where the cost of living is lower & we could crack conservative voting blocks.

And Dominion voting machines, bought by a Republican operative.
But until there’s calling out this outrageous inflammatory bullshit coming from the White House, and condemning this propaganda, we are on a freefall.

“The GOP is now the enemy of US democracy.”
