It’s fun when a RW shitposter shitposts on Bluesky and the Bluesky people take that post between their fingers and roll it around examining it like Neo looked at the stopped bullet at the end of “The Matrix”.

A candidate bragging “I’m not a politician” is flat-out telling you they’re not qualified for the job and, if elected, they will suck at it and make the governed function worse for all of us.
Well, genius, a President is a politician.
The fact you trust a pathologically lying, narcissistic, sociopath tells me a great deal about your poor choices.

“Clinton is in the Epstein files!”
Great. Next time I come across a Clinton rally, someone wearing a Clinton hat, or flying a Clinton flag on their truck, I’ll be sure to let them know.
The rest of us want them ALL held accountable because we aren’t in a cult. Hope that helps.

People’s awareness of issues in their area has been devastated by the death of newspapers.
Papers were part of an intellectual infrastructure that supported our shared understanding of what was going on around us.
We haven’t yet arrived at what supports that consensus next. And we’re suffering.

This has always been a Bluesky-first campaign. But as of today, we will no longer be using Twitter. At all.
And I'm calling on other candidates to follow suit.

The “Let’s You And Him Fight - Anti-Trump Edition” crowd seem bent that USA citizens who are doing what they can to end this horror aren’t meeting their standards for doing something.
I invite them to get out there and do whatever “Braveheart” stuff they want done by themselves.
