I am not a storming the capital kind of Christian but am a loving my neighbor kind who opposes any form of Christian Nationalism and oppression.Therefore, I plan to be insufferable for the foreseeable future.

I like how these people just think we’ll make stuff ourselves versus importing it. Do we have factories built and ready to go? Most likely not since they will probably have to be specialized to make certain products and building new factories right now is not cost effective because of the tariffs.

I think he needs to spend less time pandering for Trump and more time doing the job we the people pay him to do.

He’s just another Trump sycophant. Worst part is that no matter how bad he is, Marsha will be even worse if she wins his seat.😒

We need the Dems to make their presence seen and felt in Tn so we can get her elected. Marsha has already started trying to sway the vote on this and Dems need to push back hard.

Yeah, I don’t trust that this peace deal will last.

Yes, Cam made mistakes but he is a rookie. I think the bigger problem is the o-line that can’t seem to keep their quarterback from getting sacked multiple times in a game. Kind of hard to develop a quarterback when he spends a fair amount of time taking hits.

sroberts323.bsky.social @sroberts323.bsky.social · 2d

Correct, and we the people need the Dems to stand strong in opposition to them.

sroberts323.bsky.social @sroberts323.bsky.social · 2d

Yep!!!💯

It is insane how many different things people are betting on within these sports betting apps. I can see how easily it is for someone to get pulled into this addiction in a very short time.

I’ll be curious to see how the Olympics turn out. If things continue the way they are now, I would have to imagine other countries will boycott and that we will not get the tourism boom that usually comes with hosting the Olympics.

This is so stupid!!!

Honestly, I’m bothered even more by the fact that the military is complying. He may be Commander in Chief but they took an oath to defend the Constitution and the people over and above everything and everyone else. I wonder how they will feel when they have to go after their own friends and family?

While I don’t regularly follow country music these days, I may have to start following Zach Bryan now. It takes a lot of courage to do what he is doing right now and to be willing to face the fallout in order to stand up for what is right.

It’s like the “Wag the Dog” strategy. Distract the masses with one thing while you are secretly doing another.

Then I think we should let them have Trump. Let’s see how they like living under his reign.

sroberts323.bsky.social @sroberts323.bsky.social · 4d

Democrats should show up to the House chamber every day and sit and wait for the R’s to show up. Then send out a daily photo of them sitting and waiting for R’s to show up and end this shutdown. Make sure you push it out across all platforms. Make the message loud and clear about who is the problem.

I realized this in 2019 when people in my church fully exposed their racism. MAGA has created a space where they now feel safe to reveal who they really are. They are the reason I walked away from a community that meant everything to me and will not return until the cancer has been removed.

sroberts323.bsky.social @sroberts323.bsky.social · 4d

Correct!!! They would have fired them with or without the shutdown.

sroberts323.bsky.social @sroberts323.bsky.social · 4d

Fact is they were going to fire these people anyway. They are just doing it now to try and force Dems to cave. Dems need to stand strong and not capitulate to them.

sroberts323.bsky.social @sroberts323.bsky.social · 4d

I hope the Dems stay strong and don’t cave to these tactics.

sroberts323.bsky.social @sroberts323.bsky.social · 4d

Maybe it’s time to pull out the old Texas playbook and threaten to arrest and remove them for not showing up to do the damn job they get paid to do.🤬

Interesting, won’t draw the line at pedophilia, but will draw the line for this. Call me crazy but I think abusing children should be where the line is drawn.

sroberts323.bsky.social @sroberts323.bsky.social · 4d

Well, not gonna lie, I am stunned by this development. I would have to think this will not sit well with MAGA and his military people. But, I could be wrong about that as they seem to wear blinders where he is concerned.

As a blue dot in a very red state, the protests are also helpful to remind you that you are not alone and there are others in your area who feel the same way you do.
