Lifelong Lib. Voting solid Blue since '76! Persister. Musician. Former kid, future corpse. Dem door knocker and phone banker since '04. BLM & LGBTQ ally. Fighting against the economic war the rich started in the 70's! We have entered the Twilight Zone.
I can’t leave out Ashley. Apparently she was a Southern belle in a previous incarnation.
I'll never understand. Why does injustice or tragedy have to happen directly to them before they can actually see what's going on? Is empathy or having a conscience really that remote in their life?
This is a bit dated but you have to LOVE the descriptive command of the Scottish!
The wealthiest country in the world can start a war with a nation that, problematic as they are, hasn't attacked us but we aren't going to give Ukraine, a sovereign democracy attacked by a brutal neighbor, any material support because Trump adores and wants to be criminal dictator Putin? Yes.
Happy 250th Birthday USA! Hang in there my True Blue Bluesky friends. Let’s get through this nightmare together and come out stronger in the process!
The reflecting pool on Independence Day 2026? Fenced in, patrolled by the National Guard, peeling paint, dead ducks and algae. Independence Day 1976? Lots of people being people and hanging out.
Yet another one of the rotting pumpkin's oft repeated lies that doesn't get called out enough is that the USA is the ONLY country that offers birthright citizenship. Political media PLEASE start doing your job. 33 countries and 2 territories.
Every time we try to reform this corrupt system, post Watergate and the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002, they, mostly the Supreme Court in this century, figure out an end run around it. Citizens United in 2010 now today's monstrosity. It makes me sick. We have to add 4 seats or impeach them.
LBJ said it after passing the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act.
Below are some reasons I’ve always been a Democrat. I’ve pointed it out to many working people over decades. LBJ knew that the “equalizing” bills of the mid-Sixties were going to lose Dems the South but somehow this fear that anything that benefits some somehow takes away from them. POINT THIS OUT!
Of course it's AI but it would not be out of the realm of possibilities with this his history.
I saw this Mercury Colony Park at the electric charging station in the parking lot of my doctor's office today. Looks like EV'S are going retro. Waddya think?
Democracy is voters picking their politicians. Gerrymandering is politicians picking their voters.
