Determination goes hand-in-hand with discipline. Some people will tell that motivation is key, and while motivation is good and definitely has its place and time, it is almost always temporary.

Strive always to be extraordinary!

Every day I ponder, "Can this darkness get any dumber?" And every day answers with, "Hold my beer and watch this."

Holy crap. Trump will make the FCC crucify Jimmy Kimmel for this.

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in.

Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.

The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism

In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

Bondi senate hearing had a folder full of notes for attacking the senators

...otherwise we're lowering ourselves to the MAGA level. It's easy to see what they're doing and have knee-jerk responses (they're so damn despicable), so we have to be extra vigilant.

Have a good night, and keep fighting the good fight.

I shared the pic as Portland too. I got all worked up over it and shared it on other social media platforms. When I found out it was not Portland (from a MAGA) I had to go back and let friends and family know I, we, had been duped. Imho, we gotta make sure what we share is factual and objective...

Also, the Reps could simply vote out the Filibuster Rule and then vote on the budget with their simple majority. They won't do that because they need the Dems to be their boogieman.

This would require some San Andreas Fault/Walker Lane collaboration, with the agreement of the Cascadia Subduction Zone...but, I'm here for it.

Unfortunately, Posse Comitatus does not apply to DHS and the sub-departments that it manages (ICE, Coast Guard, etc.)

The Republicans ARE supporting tyrannical oppression and treason, and when Americans opposed to that oppression have had enough and decide to fight back - as is our right and an unspoken founding principle of We, the People's nation, the tyrants label the People as terrorists.

....oh, shit. It's fascism.

Dave for Freedom, Integrity, Love, Honesty, Compassion, Humility @davey-sojourner.bsky.social · 4d

It's not fascism until they're kicking in your door without a warrant, imprisoning maligned demographics without due process, touting the return to a mythological wonderful past, has a cult-like figurehead, has an obsession with internal security, denigrating leftists, crying about being victims...

As a conservative, I’ve always advocated for a government small enough that it could militarily occupy several American cities at the same time, against the stated wishes of local elected officials. It should also be small and nimble enough so that it can zip tie children together at 1AM.

Locals, CPD, press, a few protestors and legal observers remain on scene but the feds are gone. Air is still foul from all the chemicals. One protestor found one of the gas cannisters feds were deploying into the crowd

Goddamn scumbag fascists. I loathe them all. From the deepest, darkest pit of my broken heart I loathe everyone that is complicit with Trump's regime of human demons.

Ever since the Hegseth and Trump's Carnival of Military Cosplay Bloopers, the "President" has been locked in his room and playing with a fake smartphone cum pop-up book to keep him from saying the whispered things out loud.

DEMOCRATS: How can we make Russ Vought infamous? He's a fairly obscure bureaucrat unless you live in the beltway. People can't even pronounce his name right.

We already live in one of the most surveilled nations on earth, from cameras everywhere, to GPS monitoring, to data collection, etc.. The trick is to figure out ways to avoid and deceive that surveillance.
