It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.
Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.
Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

The Metro police in Nevada reposted their position to deportation. It remains the same as it was in 2023 so far.

Did you all know if you see someone being trash on this platform you can report each offensive post individually and likely get them banned? Let's have a case study shall we?

If the "Morning Joe" meeting with Trump wasn't already poorly received, the explanations coming from Joe and Mika certainly aren't helping the situation.
I break down Mika's recent podcast interview and explain why their reasoning isn't enough.

Last year, when I was at MSNBC, I did a 10-minute deep-dive into RFK Jr's anti-vaxxer role in the measles outbreak that killed dozens and dozens of kids in Samoa.
I hope every Senator voting in his confirmation process for HHS knows about this crucial and awful story:

1 of 4/ Bret Baier's repeatedly extending his arm in a palm-toward-and-down dynamic is a nonverbal effort to tell VP Harris to 'shut-up', 'you've said enough about this topic', 'I have the floor now'. ...

From Steve Schmidt’s Warning:
The plain truth is that many people who work in media are afraid right now. They are afraid of losing $10,000,000.00 annual salaries — or two, if the personalities are married co-hosts who control four hours of television on a network…..

My friends called me and told me it was cool, so the millions of people on social media who used to watch our show on occasion who are upset and vowed to never watch it again are all idiots.

Do Not Obey In Advance.
Many of us are echoing @timothysnyder.bsky.social's lesson in On Tyranny, "Do not obey in advance.”
A no less vital admonition that deserves attn:
STAND OUT
“...without that unease, there is no freedom. The moment you set an example, the spell of the status quo is broken, and others will follow."

We should all be verifying our sources.
Seriously. Fuck the MSM.
I don’t mean to sound like a Trumper.
But in the Trump 2.0 era we need to be EXCEPTIONALLY choosey with where we source our information.
I’m dedicated to verifying sources before I post a news report.
This is the vigilance we need.

I’m thrilled to have Gabrielle posting on BSky.
When we first moved to France, we lived in the countryside between two small farms. Our six kids were aged 9 mos to 12 years. We would buy eggs from one neighbor, and milk from the other. The dairy farm was run by a 70-yr old woman who had farmed her entire life. 1/x

Good morning and Happy Saturday to everyone who calls bullshit on Alina Habba saying "WE" need to support trump because "THEY" supported President Obama when HE won.
They burned him in effigy.
Said he wasn't American.
And don't even get me started on January 6th.

We can resist & prepare at the same time.
Americans are prepping like we’re going to war:
- dumping stocks & moving finances around
- getting vaccines & screenings
- seeking legal protections for their families
- updating passports
- storing food
- getting divorces
MAGA is in denial. I plan to rub their upcoming heartache in their face

Kamala Harris has the fourth-most votes of any presidential candidate in U.S. history.
The most by any woman, and second-most by any Democrat, ever.
She’s won 4M more votes than Obama 08, 7.2M more than Obama 2012, 7.3M more than Hillary and 10.1 million more than Donald Trump 2016.

Trump wants to end 'wokeness' in education. He has vowed to use federal money as leverage
President-elect Donald Trump has a vision for education that revolves around a single goal: to rid America’s schools of perceived “wokeness” and “left-wing indoctrination.”
