Glad the NYTimes is catching on. They missed this when he said brown immigrants are taking black jobs and called every black woman in a “white job” a low IQ individual.

A loud reminder that this administration wants to bring back SEGREGATION as @victorerikray.bsky.social has pointed out and they're starting within the administration.

A literal page out of Woodrow Wilson's playbook. #blacksky #news

Dementia.

The country needs him to be removed from office.

Is he also sending top secret information via easily hackable DM’s or Truth Social posts that have aided Russia, China, and other enemies?

He has dementia. It is hard for some to tell because he has always been (or pretended to be) stupid. But if you have close family members with dementia, you see all the signs in Trump.

Do you have any idea how many country songs are anti-government with great distrust of law enforcement? It is in the DNA of the genre.

And she will be indicted by a grand jury. She will lose her law license. If Trump is still alive then, he will say Pam who? I don’t know who that is. Loyalty is a one way street with him.

Great to see peaceful protests. We are all joining you on October 18 for No Kings marches. Google to find a location near you.

Even if they were drug traffickers, we don’t kill them. If they are in US waters (they weren’t), our coast guard arrests them, we hold a trial, and if found guilty, they can get 5 years to life, depending on circumstances. Not death.

I sure wish #Governorabbott and the #TexasLegislature would stop fighting their stupid culture wars and do something to help Texans. They think they work for Trump and don’t give a darn about helping Texans.

Speaker Johnson says he won’t call the House back because they have no work to do.

Among other things, how about drafting and passing a workable health care plan? Releasing the Epstein files? Lowering cost for Americans? Taking control of tariffs, per the Constitution? Investigating Homan?

Wishful thinking or real hope?

Rhonda Reger @rhondareger.bsky.social · 20h

Keep resisting! Until Congress passes a law that is upheld by the Supreme Court, Trump has no authority to force state or local police to support him and ICE in warrantless arrests.

OMG. Abbott is trolling Hegseth by sending fat soldiers.

Doesn’t he understand this is all a made for TV movie?

It will be hard to infiltrate the “cells” since so far, all the violence has been done by lone wolves, acting alone. But, I have heard that Paxton is into some kinky stuff (ask his soon to be ex-wife), so you never know.

Who controls transportation in the U.S.? Trump.

Not true. All of your problems will be worse.

Eerily timely now.

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.
