The Sen. Reconciliation bill rips open deadly loopholes allowing silencers to circumvent the rigorous background checks Americans overwhelmingly support. I joined @schumer.senate.gov @senatedemocrats.bsky.social to call out this shameful disregard for public safety.

Another video of Senator Padilla’s violent arrest at DHS Sec Noem’s press conference in LA. You can see him thrown to the ground by FBI agents and handcuffed.

(video shared by Padilla’s staff with Elex Michaelson of Fox LA and posted on X)

I am so incredibly disappointed in Leader Schumer right now I could VOMIT. This is not what Democrats want. We want him to FIGHT! It’s not too late.
If we enter a shutdown, Congressional Republicans would weaponize their majorities to cherry-pick which parts of government to reopen.

Can we try again? Blue Sky has a weird glitch where it only shows us the first 500 comments.

If you’d like us to follow you back can you repost this and leave a note below?

BREAKING: Donald Trump’s former Chief of Staff Reince Priebus reveals that he nominated Matt Gaetz for Attorney General as a “middle finger” to the Justice Department and the FBI.

Trump is destroying the rule of law out spite.

Repost to demand the release of the Ethics Committee report on Gaetz!

Let’s speak out loud enough for him to hear our demand to see the report.
He can’t undo the immeasurable damage he has caused with his inaction, but Merrick Garland has one last opportunity to do the right thing.

RELEASE THE REPORT!

Matt Gaetz is not fit to be AG. The Tuskegee Univ. mass shooter that killed 1 & injured 16 had a handgun & machine gun conversion device which enables handguns to fire 20 bullets a one second. They're prohibited under the NFA which Gaetz has filed a bill to repeal.

Forgive me for being blunt.

But “we’ll fix this in the next election” is NOT A GREAT RESPONSE TO WHERE WE ARE.

Normal rules are NOT in play.

Act now.
Organize now.
Speak up now.
Plan now.
Push back—and urge power- holders to do the same.

Now.

Matt Gaetz calling to abolish the ATF isn't just a a soundbite. He actually introduced the bill to do it and said House Republicans had the ATF in their “crosshairs.” Gaetz is not fit to be AG.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.

Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”

I keep thinking of educators who voted for Trump and wondering if they are okay with this.
BARTIROMO: Are you expecting to close down entire agencies? President Trump has talked about the Department of Education, for example

RAMASWAMY: We expect mass reductions. We expect certain agencies to be deleted outright.

Congrats to @bluesky for all the new users

My 2 cents. Find every news source the has an RSS feed or equivalent and create accounts that that show their public deeds on here under @johndoetimesfeed

That way we all get access to news without having to wait for them to create accounts first.
