My wife was explaining to someone that she was a litigator, and I interrupted with “huh, I thought you were a talk-o-dile, I can never tell them apart” and the look I got suggests I may not be long for this world.

@cppilgram.bsky.social it's come true.
These Trump tariffs are getting out of hand.

While I realize BlueSky is its own little bubble, I can't help comparing the comments on here vs Threads or IG. I'm starting to believe the amount of bot and paid actor/troll accounts are higher than I thought.

RFK Jr and Brooke Rollins want to let bird flu run through flocks to identify the birds that are immune so that we can breed them.

The problem is that production birds are hybrids, and we don’t breed them. You’d think at least one of these two assholes would know that.

Time to annex the Great Lakes states.
When people talk about "American Exceptionalism" they now usually mean that Americans are exceptionally bad a running a country.

This is how most people become "illegal". They come here legally, and their visa runs out because they have to wade through the bureaucracy.

🚨 “The agriculture industry lost $26 BILLION from retaliatory tariffs in 2018 and 2019 — the first time Trump launched a trade war”

Our farmers have barely recovered from Trump’s first term tariffs. Now he is doing it again, the same exact way, but magically expects this time to be different.

Thanks @pocan.house.gov for stepping up for the people of Wisconsin.
Republicans are too chickenshit to hold town halls. Shocker.

Here’s an idea: Democrats, hold town halls in Republican districts.

I used to post this all the time back in 2016, but in the 40s the US War Department put together a movie called “Don’t Be a Sucker” after returning from the German camps. The goal was to teach us how Germany fell, and dude on the soapbox sounds like Fox has for decades: m.youtube.com/watch?v=vGAq...

Just saw a farmer say, "you don't have to admit you were wrong, you have to admit you were lied to, " and idk that seems like a good framing to call people in

Ya, tough spot to be in.
I'd bet at least some of those "conservative" farmers were as interested in the "Culture War" talking points to.

Another "tell" that this was never about cutting costs and balancing the budget.
If the DOGE commission is serious about cutting wasteful government spending, the Pentagon should be their primary focus.

They are the only federal agency that has never passed an audit, yet continue to receive HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS of taxpayer dollars every single year.
