He’s a patronizing POS.

Joe Walsh @walshfreedom.bsky.social · 8d

You are an unserious, careless, incompetent person.

Robert Hagemann @wake-up-america.bsky.social · 8d

Hegseth is such a patronizing POS.

Ron Filipkowski @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · 8d

This is the cringiest MF on the planet. He’s actually saying this to our most senior military officers from around the world.

Thank you, @walshfreedom.bsky.social for this spot-on question to Speaker Johnson one really wonders if he realizes how hypocritical and un-Christian he is!

Joe Walsh @walshfreedom.bsky.social · 10d

Hey Speaker Johnson, as a proud, faithful Christian, you know that when you die & meet your god, you’ll be asked some tough questions, like…Why did u sell your soul? Why did u repeatedly go on national TV & lie? Why were u such a coward? I hope u have some answers for your god.

The Justice Department is now identical to Russia’s Prosecutor General’s Office and our FBI is like Russia’s FSB security services. Now Americans will see how justice is carried out in Russia. I call it the Kremlinization of America’s justice system.

The U.S. is headed for huge troubles: politically (they’re already bad, but will worsen), economically (lousy job growth & rising inflation), and heightened international tensions. It is inconceivable how things cannot go south.

If John Bolton has been wrongly targeted by the FBI, I am pretty sure he’ll regret not having testified in the 2021 impeachment trial.

Seems like something we should all watch!

George Conway 👊🇺🇸🔥 @gtconway.bsky.social · Jul 31

This airs at 8 am EDT tomorrow at aljazeera.com/live and then will be repayable at some point at www.aljazeera.com/program/head.... It’ll be better than anything you usually watch in the morning, I’m sure. @mehdirhasan.bsky.social was terrific.

Outstanding column!

Jeff Timmer @jefftimmer.bsky.social · Jul 20

@walshfreedom.bsky.social is awesome on this podcast. He may be the only prominent Democrat who can get the party to successfully counter MAGA.

Tara Dublin, Rock Star Author📚❤️‍🔥🤘🏻 @taradublinrocks.bsky.social · Jul 15

That happened! @tarabuster.bsky.social went in & @walshfreedom.bsky.social spoke to it very eloquently

Also Joe Walsh said EVERY DEMOCRAT & EVERY REPUBLICAN should watch our conversation, so please watch!

Great suggestion.

Silver Ballots @silverballots.bsky.social · Jul 4

Buy postcards on Etsy, some 56c postcard stamps from USPS, request a voter list from Activate America, and start writing. It’s satisfying, can be done while listening to podcasts, and I find it induces an addictive flow state once I get going.

Gross indeed. Alas! With so little resistance, it’s beginning to look, sadly, like it is who “we” are.

Joe Walsh @walshfreedom.bsky.social · Jun 8

Just gross. So not who we are.👇

If we could do it for civil rights, we can surely do it to save us from fascism! 200,000 on the mall in August 1963. Why not 1,000,000 in August 2025?

Did he ever! He basically loaded the kill-democracy gun when SCOTUS granted Trump near total immunity for any action Trump wants to define as “core” functions of the presidency.

With Trump, “negotiations” always result in lose-lose outcomes. (www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...)

If you think for a single fucking second that suspending due process will stop with the people you don’t happen to like, then congratulations, because you are an idiot, an asshole, and you’re in a fucking cult.

Robert Hagemann @wake-up-america.bsky.social · May 9

Yes! Someone in the media, please do!!!

Joe Walsh @walshfreedom.bsky.social · May 9

Someone in the media, please ask this question.👇

Has anyone asked the administration why the ICE agents don't wear uniforms and cover their faces? It's very weird.
