There it is! The 'the' in front I-5. We're so united over here on the west coast that I forgot he is in fact, very Californian. 😂
Despite that, well done Newsom, for calling out the stupid and standing up for your people!

Someone really needs to tell him that pumpkin puree is not moisturizer. At this point it's just cruel and unusual punishment. For us.

For those of us that were taught to never ever ever let a stranger get you in their car because your chance of survival dramatically decreases, THIS! ⬆️
If you do not show identification as law enforcement, I will fight for my life, because that is what I will think is on the line.

When people's overwhelming reaction to you finally telling the truth is 'what's wrong with you?' or 'what's your motive?', might be time to reflect on the person you've chosen to be.

There's more to this than we are aware of at this point. Trump doesn't do anything out of the goodness of his heart, nor does Netanyahu or Hamas. I hope I'm wrong and this plays out the way they are advertising it will, but there's definitely a part of me that's waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Stimmt. Aber zu viele Leute hier verstehen das nicht oder wollen es nicht glauben. Irgendwann werden andere Länder mit angreifen müssen.

Scary stuff right there. If she'd visited a couple days ago she could have met the pj's and pastries crew. Those ladies with slippers and eye masks looked real threatening in their lawnchairs. And that bored chicken will certainly haunt her dreams. 🙄

The President of the United States*

*Not of all the people in the United States. Just the ones who agree with said President. Or the ones he likes. Or the ones he can blackmail...It's a long list of qualifiers really. Just know that he is in fact President for some Americans! 🫡

Trump made a mistake sending CA after OR. The west coast is thicker than thieves. We stand together. Newsom will fight this with everything he has. I do not doubt WA would too if it comes to that.

germangirl24.bsky.social @germangirl24.bsky.social · 13d

If it's illegal then CHARGE HIM. He's doing this because no one is stopping him. Feel free to start. We have 300 troops heading to PDX right now. Oregonians are known for fighting back against tyranny. Things are about to seriously escalate. If he's breaking the law, do something about it!

Portland is certainly not. Which is the whole reason they chose this city specifically. Oregonians will fight back and it gives Miller a reason to proceed with martial law as well gets their foot in the door to intervene in coming elections. And escalate their war on blue states. This is all bad.

germangirl24.bsky.social @germangirl24.bsky.social · 15d

Oh, no. I mean yes it is, but this administration doesn't need to follow laws. At least that seems to be the understanding between Trump, the Supreme Court and Congress. Another way to tell that they get a pass is that news organizations such as PBS don't call his actions illegal when they are.

Yes, with violent rhetoric at an all time high in the US, let's bring in more firearms.

I imagine Republicans response to seeing a fire is to look for some gasoline to put it out.

If they want to stop the uneducated stereotype the world has of them they have to stop being idiots.

That, dear friends, is a very very insecure man.

germangirl24.bsky.social @germangirl24.bsky.social · 19d

Yeah I think he did a good a job of not letting the other guy steamroll him. He didn't let up which was great. But slow down so the points hit home!

germangirl24.bsky.social @germangirl24.bsky.social · 20d

Well that's sure a misleading headline isn't it? That picture is neither from today nor is there a standoff with ICE happening in Portland right now.

Do better CNN. Clamoring for bloodshed isn't a good look.

I hope he keeps posting just like this actually. People, his supporters, are losing everything right now. At some point, this massaging is going to start feeling real personal and they will turn on him.

I mean I heard just fine. But that's going in and out for the people who don't want to hear the message to begin with. If he wants what he's saying to resonate he'll need to present it differently. Smart kid though!

germangirl24.bsky.social @germangirl24.bsky.social · 20d

True. Unfortunately I think he's too quick. There's a reason these people like Trump. He speaks at their level. This guy nailed it, but if he wants that to sink in to the people who need to hear it he needs to slow down so it can compute.

And to those who chose not to vote out of protest, take a long look at this. You knew and chose this anyway. This pain, this suffering is on you. These families will never recover from this trauma. This is unforgivable.

While I can very much appreciate the eloquence of the Brits, I think if anyone deserves the ugly bluntness of American English, it is Trump. As we would say on this side of the pond, "he sucks." And we mean every word.

She surprised me with how weak she turned out to be as VP actually. Hakeem Jeffries has very much followed that same pattern. A lot of talk and not a lot of follow through. They are very complacent somehow. But I'd take either over Trump any day of the week!

When I was 18 and Obama was president I didn't know who anybody was. I couldn't have told you the governor of a single state. Nor any individual, let alone multiple, members of congress.
What I wouldn't give to never hear Ted Cruz's name again. Heck I'd pay you to ban the name Boebert or Hegseth. 🤦🏼‍♀️

It's because there is 'german' in my name that I don’t get the privilege to not speak up. I know history, I know what follows this. You were warned what would happen if Trump won. Minorities will be wiped from our map. You took this personally? Good. Take ownership of the suffering you've caused.

Weird that the only victims are the immigrants then, isn't it?
