Not sure who needs to hear this but your “physical” isn’t “annual” if you need it twice in six months.

Imagine being mad you didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize while you’re busy stirring up Civil War in your own country.

It is interesting that Fox can say whatever it wants yet when someone like Jimmy Kimmel makes jokes about Trump, there are consequences. Very lopsided first amendment..

Scoops @scooptown.bsky.social · 1d

Sooo Fox News had to pay out nearly a billion dollars for lying about the election, and we... allow them to remain in operation? To lie more? About elections?

The First Amendment was 100% NEVER meant to be used as a tool of oppression or manipulation of the masses, it was created for the opposite.

Independent C-SPAN caller to Rep. Mark Alford: "You're taking credit for $50b that you just gave to the hospital industry. That's after you took away $150b. You don't take credit for just giving back a little bit of money after taking away so much. So quit lying. It just makes you look horrible."

And yet so many people watch this channel. Why?!

Mrs. Betty Bowers @mrsbettybowers.bsky.social · 1d

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.

You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

Trumps retribution knows no end…this is so wrong and scary …I hope this trumped up charge does not go very far…

Chris Murphy @chrismurphyct.bsky.social · 1d

Just bone chilling. And when the imprisonment of critics is combined with his offer to enrich and immunize his loyalists, this is how democracies die fast.

But it's still our choice. Don't let him silence you.

Noem claims Portland hid their war zone from her.

🇨🇦Janet S @janet1857.bsky.social · 2d

Sadly, the national guard is in Portland and Chicago, subduing the violent mobs there….

Steven Beschloss @stevenbeschloss.bsky.social · 2d

Hi. I’d like to report a deranged and delusional man in the White House who’s inciting violence and represents a danger to public safety. Can law enforcement please handle this matter?

Bad Bunny offends Johnson…people not being paid doesn’t register on his radar….

Patrick Chovanec @prchovanec.bsky.social · 2d

The Speaker of the House has firm views that Bad Bunny is a terrible pick for singing at the Super Bowl, but hasn't had time to watch the President's speech to our military leadership or form an opinion whether furloughed federal workers should be paid or Illinois' governor should be thrown in jail.

Trump needs it so he can have more gaudy gold decorations in the Oval Office….

Angry @angrystaffer.bsky.social · 2d

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

🇨🇦Janet S @janet1857.bsky.social · 2d

I didn’t realize she was an attorney because I didn’t think attorneys acted the way she does….

Mrs. Betty Bowers @mrsbettybowers.bsky.social · 3d

The condescension of two-bit Attorney General Pamela Jo Bondi today underscores that the only thing this administration excels at is a complete lack of self-awareness.

Pritzker is right. They want to normalize troops in cities so they can steal every election just like Putin does.
