Yes, the name changed. The mission did too. From rallying Democrats to uniting all citizens. Still Good Trouble. Vive la révolution.

We’ve changed our name. Here’s why:

We started as DEMOcrats to push the party to stand up—to make good trouble.

But time and again, they gave away their power:
• Empty promises.
• Performative gestures.
• Blocking the next generation.

They’ve missed the mark. America is paying the price.

But was she orange, shutting down freedom of speech, and disappearing people?

If not, it seems we can all look beyond a suit to the person inside it.

Trouble for the admin is, Good Bunny knows the truth about Bad Bunny and his beliefs (and he stand with him).

So, what about girls with autism?

Cockade Brigade @cockadebrigade.bsky.social · 1d

Wow. One minute and 34 seconds and some of us are about to throw her out?

Not her finest moments for sure. But, we didn’t see the before; or the after.

How many of us, have a minute or more in our lifetime of behaving in a way that we don’t normally behave.

Oh, yeah, and Epstein.

Trump might have immunity, but ICE does not.

He won’t be able to protect federal agents from criminal and civil prosecution once he’s gone.

Their day of reckoning will come. Broken down here…

That’s because nothing is “his lane.”

Well, unless it’s Ghislaine.

Cockade Brigade @cockadebrigade.bsky.social · 1d

True.

Unless it’s the middle of the night, and you realize that you don’t have a cat.

Many people felt the same way when they saw the actor who played Pennywise.

Just like him, it was all an act.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social we all know he’s playing the same role he has all of his life.

A king.

The Russians support him.

Musk, Thiel, Miller and Republicans enable him.

This is more than Trump.

Thank you, Judge Perry.

We hear you. It seems insane.

Truth is, it's all calmly calculated.

Purposeful.

Senator Mark Warner @markwarner.bsky.social · 1d

Actually INSANE that Republicans are so unwilling to stop your health care costs from skyrocketing that they are refusing to even sit down to negotiate… and House Republicans have entirely stopped showing up to work at all.

Hey America, this is 3 min well spent.

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.

I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. Let me explain what’s going on.

Cockade Brigade @cockadebrigade.bsky.social · 1d

Brilliant.

Shapiro: I filed that amicus brief last night to make it very clear that the Pennsylvania National Guard is under my command.

The way the President has chosen to deploy the Guard in other states—and, in at least one case, deploy the Guard from one state into another—is extremely dangerous.

Powerful message from a powerful American — a powerful woman of God.

New York Attorney General Letitia James @newyorkstateag.bsky.social · 1d

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

Seems his only lane is Ghislaine.

Release the Epstein files.

“[Democrats] turned the lights off?!”

Um, last we heard, you’re the ones in the government still getting a paycheck.

Under Trump, yes.

A dollar given to CA is a dollar less in his pocket.

Seriously.
