I’m a semi-retired emergency veterinarian and fill my time away from work with my dogs, fused glass art, baking (sourdough, cheesecakes etc.) and reading. Science Fiction Fantasy is my guilty pleasure.
So how much difficulty is there on re-entering the US if you have anti-Trump info on social media etc? Is it being less of a problem if you have Global Entry? Unsure if a trip abroad is unwise.

The man is going to provide some calls to action. This is Bernie's jam. If there were ever a time to put aside differences and listen to Bernie, it is this Wednesday at 9pm!

This piece from @jvl.bsky.social is one of the most important insightful I have read since January 20th 2025.

🚨 “This isn’t just a screw-up—it’s the kind of breach that could get American Troops killed.”
Pete Buttigieg lays it out: Anyone else in the military would face serious consequences for a failure like this.
But Hegseth’s still running the Pentagon—and that should terrify all of us.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.
This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.
Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.
And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

If you call because your social security check didn't arrive you are a "fraudster".
Unbelievable. You paid into SSA your whole life. That money is yours.
In 2025 SSA benefits represented ~31% of income of people over 65. Seniors NEED this.

I’m going to repeat what I said in the beginning:
What is needed:
1. Mass Protests
2. Mass Boycotts
3. Mass Strikes
4. Then, massive (non violent) civil disobedience.
The target must be Wall Street. The pain of supporting Trump has to greatly exceed the pain of breaking with him.
