Americans wanted freedom from going bankrupt paying for medical bills so Obama created Obamacare. He had a good plan but by the time the republicuns got through with it, it was not too great. They've tried 60 times to repeal it. Never vote for a republicun.

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.

She is contemptible

dornette @dornette.bsky.social · 1d

wow! Such disrespect. She absolutely DRIPS with condescension. Because she knows she will not be held accountable and the rules do not apply to her. Just appalling!

We can only hope she (& trump) will meet the same end.
