Showing off his hat collection just like any other person with the emotional development of a 6 year old.

You have never seen someone with so much power pretend to be so helpless and concerned than Sen. Lisa Murkowski, and yes, I am including all current Republicans in that analysis.

Well I’m sure Trump opening up the Alaska national wildlife refuge to oil drilling will more than make up for it. 🙄

I think the rest of the world looks at this in the same context of the Louvre Jewel heist. WTF America. Grow some.

Victims of sexual assault live with the fear of the consequences of telling their story. This must be told. May Virginia rest in power knowing that she will have helped those whose fear became a sponge, soaking up every nuance of tension that would weave itself throughout every part of their being.

Friendly reminder that Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir drops Tuesday and contains the truth she wanted the world to hear about those who abused her and the cost of silence.

Buy it. Read it. Give the woman some justice.

Can always depend on Canadians to tell the truth.

Huh. Wonder why they joined us here. Truth Social and X are echo chambers of their electorate. Are they here to have a discussion regarding the topics that are important to people? I think the only billionaire on here is Mark Cuban, who is not a fan, so that leaves them with a very tiny audience 🤷‍♀️

What's up, Bluesky? We thought you might've missed some of our greatest hits, so we put this together for you.

Can't wait to spend more quality time together! ❤️🇺🇸

Had to save some for tonight’s dinner 😊

Rhonda Cates @rhondacates.bsky.social · 6d

Had some leftover teriyaki sauce that I made last night so teriyaki chicken in the air fryer and ginger, mushroom, bok choy fried rice, for the win. Unlike the Blue Jays 😏

In the same way that Residential Schools were a “blessing” to Indigenous children.
