Because the govt always bails them out!

B Grrl @bgrrl.bsky.social · 13h

I hear ya. But they will still get bailed out like they always do. That's why there's a Trump flag/massive sign on every farm by me. Problem is - and they don't know it - project 2025 doesn't want to keep bailing them out and wants to cut aid severely. If only they knew. <giggle>

That pretty much sums it up perfectly.

Very nice. I do love the dandelion flowers. They always persist! 🏵️Great analogy.

#NoKings
#RiseUp

We need (3.5%) 12 million people to SHOW UP on Saturday 10/18 to make a difference. Historically, this is the number needed to change the trajectory of our government. Show up. We've got everything to lose if we don't.

We’re eight days away from #NoKings Day, and over 2,500 protests planned in all 50 states and across the world.
October 18 is going to be the biggest day of nonviolent protest in US history — because Courage is contagious.

There is always that one that never gives up. Be that one. Be a Shasta daisy! 🌼

B Grrl @bgrrl.bsky.social · 19h

I think this is why is good to show up at protests. It's more to support each each and know we are not alone. In fact, we are very not alone. :)

IKR? How are they getting away with this? Reeks of fascism, which of course, it is.

B Grrl @bgrrl.bsky.social · 19h

I have about 30 leeks to harvest this week. Looking for recipes. :)

B Grrl @bgrrl.bsky.social · 19h

What a dangerous fool.
Where's my paycheck? I would like to get paid in advance in case I get clobbered by the Natl Guard for showing up and marching peacefully.

See you there!

I can’t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.

It’s OFFICIAL: there are more marble statues of old guys over in the House of Representatives than there are actual Republican House members!

If those statues could talk: What are the Epstein files? What are they so afraid of? They haven’t been to work for how many days? 20. Did you say 20? 20.

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.
