Absolutely sickening that about 90 million eligible voters did NOT turn out😩. Equally dismaying: the #MangoMussolini margin has only been 256,000 votes; Biden’s was over 7 million votes 4 years ago. I am disheartened beyond words🥵

A disgrace without grace

During her Senate Oversight Hearing, Attorney General Pam Bondi showed she will say whatever she needs to enact Trump’s policies.

Truly bewildering. So much was at stake, and here we are, watching the systematic destruction of both the gov't and democracy at breakneck speed.
It is sad. Soul crushingly sad & tragic.
Too old now. Will never be living in a democracy again, unless somehow win the lottery and move.

Be very aware!!!!

LCG_CT🧿Opposes @lcg556.bsky.social · 3d

Republicans are posting AI fakes or past pics of of riots or war scenes or buildings on fire from years ago saying that they are the US cities that are currently occupied by ICE to justify sending these troops in! The Regime is delusional and they need to go!

Pube Doodler 🇺🇸 🇮🇪 🇪🇺 @collinsresists.bsky.social · 3d

Republicans post pictures of a city in flames to justify their bullshit invasion of Portland.

Only one problem. The city is in South Africa.

Really.

They’re that desperate.
