Fascinating to be lectured by people who have never known a trans person, and just learned what "trans" meant last week.

Assholes like you spend way too much time thinking about the lives of people you will never meet, and not nearly enough about your own.

I expect the bombs to be dropping on me soon.

Bring it on, bitches!

For many reasons. Literal treason being a big one.

That already sort of happened with his birthday military parade.

Bondi shouting about her “integrity” is hilarious.

She came onto the national stage promising to investigate Trump University.

Then they gave her $25,000 and she dropped the case.

“Illegal rabble rouser”

What a racist fuckface.

"trump attorney Todd Blanche"

We should also say "trump attorney Pam Bondi."

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

If the blue states are subject to attack, then for all practical purposes there is no longer a union

Three biggest villains of our current hellscape:

1. Mitch McConnell
2. Mark Burnett
3. Fred Trump

I don't feel I need to explain any of these choices.

He has this weird magical ability to decide for himself what he can and cannot do.

And the answer is always: yes he can!

She will face zero consequences. So she was right.

Adam J. Blust @adamjblust.bsky.social · 1d

It’s even simpler.

They want to be able to do and say whatever they want with no consequences, like he does.

They were already broken. Fox and trump said they should celebrate their brokenness rather than work to fix it.

Adam J. Blust @adamjblust.bsky.social · 1d

I’ve been saying this for years.

Adam J. Blust @adamjblust.bsky.social · 1d

Yes, MAGA is utterly in charge right now. But that won’t last. That’s why they are so angry. They know their time is coming to an end.

Brown people and gay people and trans people are not going away.

Buckle up, buttercup!

I don't think they need a shield anymore. Truth and lies are meaningless constructs to them now. They go wherever he leads.

FUCK HER. HARD. SIDEWAYS. TWICE.

White, rich, President, and head of a cult.

One thing the trump era taught us is that so much we thought was bedrock was just tradition and good manners. The system was not designed to repel a gang of thieves determined to tear it all down.

Above her shoulders is just a thumb.

Miller and Vought.

Is that unclear?
