These MAGA farmers can’t find their bootstraps?

“Government handouts” for thee but not for me?

Hypocrisy is like oxygen to Republicans.

Wesley Hunt is another Black conservative who is about to find out just how far or not far that MAGA pass gets him with a party full of unapologetic racists.

I’m here for it. 🪑 🍿 😂

This is the best messaging I’ve seen from any Democrats on the shutdown. Kudos to AOC, Bernie, and their teams for putting this out there.

Lindsey Halligan is gonna get her head knocked by the court and will probably get disbarred in the end.

Throwing your law license away over Donald Trump is crazy but white people keep doing it. 🥴

Ron Filipkowski @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · 12d

Misrepresenting testimony and evidence to a grand jury to secure an indictment is a lot easier to do in that setting since there is no defense lawyer present to challenge it, but it is a pretty perilous road for Lindsey Halligan to go down right after her predecessor resigned.

Firing a U.S.Attorney 3 months into the job because they won’t or can’t manufacture evidence is insane and yet typical for a maniac President.

Is she going continue her husband’s tradition of going around the country trash-talking Black people or will she pivot to combatting the gun violence and white on white crime that took his life? 🤔

There is not a 22 year old on Earth that texts like this.

I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but I’m not stupid either.

And isn’t this potential evidence for a jury?? 🥴

The irony is I, myself, found Fred’s Linkedin a few years ago just by following him for some time. It’s really not that hard.

Arrogant Esquire @arrogantade.blacksky.app · 24d

I agree because I post enough information about myself that I’m not impossible to find.

I’m also not necessarily going to make it easy for someone that wants to be hateful.

Vincent ⚖️ @vtheesquire.bsky.social · 24d

I just assume people know who I am and move accordingly.

I don’t believe in total anonymity on the internet.

Arrogant Esquire @arrogantade.blacksky.app · 24d

This is why I very rarely ever even say my full name on here. Hell. I barely say my nickname for this reason. Never know when someone wants to be an asshole.

Twitter stopped being the Twitter we knew when Elon changed it to X.

I’m kinda amazed any non-white male Christian even still usesit for discourse.

Lurk and leave.
