As long as there’s a flicker of light, there’s hope. From my work life, most reoccurring adverse impacts on process are arrogance and complacency. Humbleness is a strength. Democracy takes effort. Fight on.

How Much?
Expected to take; do we break?
So much so
So much fear
So how low?
It’s not clear
Why is it so?
Hate rules
Love to sow
Angry fools
Can’t escape
Face head on
Societal fate
Humanity torn
Show up now
Stand up all
Rights vowed
Time to howl!

April visited WW2 American cemetery in Luxembourg 5,000+ buried from Battle of Bulge (10,000+ Americans died), last major WW2 battle, to defeat Nazis.
Please excuse sniffling in video, couldn’t expect my full emotions, shaking… for all gave lives, for every day, didn’t die in vain for democracy. 🇺🇸

America’s past fight against Nazis and sacrifice.

Excuse sniffling in video, couldn’t prepare myself, still shaking… and we have Nazi sympathizer in WH.

What this long and detailed NYT piece calmly calls an “extraordinary flexing of power by a private individual” is in fact a blatantly unconstitutional usurpation of Congress’s Article I powers and delegation of the President’s Article II duties.

Elon Musk’s Blitz Shakes U.S. Government as He Sweeps Through Agencies
The billionaire is creating major upheaval as his team sweeps through agencies, in what has been an extraordinary flexing of power by a private individual.

#6 in the first Comment. Musk accused an X user of having committed a crime by naming the people he has working in the federal government. How is this a crime if they are doing public work?

Dear Donald
Canada has something called democracy.
It means the leader is accountable to Parliament and can be replaced
I bet Americans wish they had that now.
And convicted sexual abusers don't get to lead our nation.
We're decent folk
Ps. Button up. We're sending frigid cold your way.
love Canada

I kind of think the thing is that history is always happening all around you, whoever or wherever you are. it's just that: are you the kind of person who goes *looking* for tanks while drunk on a weeknight when martial law is declared, or do you stay indoors
How many times does an event have to occur around you before you conclude you are the cause?

Thanksgiving was proclaimed by Republican President Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War, which was fought to prevent racist Southern oligarchs from seizing power.
Imagine his horror at seeing his party be used as a vessel for racist South African oligarchs to seize power.

Total BS; normalizes MAGA. Either deliberate or incompetent can’t read room. “Chamber” is everything democracy; America per Constitution. MAGA not. Safe sane civil SM space for political discourse w/in confines of Constitution is a problem?! Many swore oath died for it. tinpot djt/MAGA antiAmerican.
Opinion - The problem with Bluesky: It won’t broaden our horizons: In the wake of Donald Trump’s election win, the social-media platform has enjoyed a surge of new users looking for an alternative to Elon Musk’s X. But will it be useful, if it just creates an echo chamber for the left?
