@OleMiss_Hugo It’s been so long!
First, hope all is well and second, this will be my last post to you on X.
Please look me up if and when you come over to Bsky! 🦋
@clarksville999 Good morning.
I’m on Bsky permanently now.
Please consider signing up. Will not be posting here any more and will miss you!
Look me up if and when you get there. 🦋❤️
There has been new home construction up the hill near the edge of my property and periodically they burn tree debris. It’s 40° outside right now. Oh to have some hotdogs and marshmallows up there right now. (Forgive the Wubba sound. Dillon is entertaining himself 😉)
Gerrymandering isn’t about the number of states, it’s about the number of districts carved up by politicians in each state.
Republicans have been kicking our ass for decades when you count the total number of districts gerrymandered in Congress.
A great analysis by @dailykos 👇
Here’s where we’re at: Trump has declared war on this country. He’s declared war on the men & women of the DOJ, the FBI, the intelligence community, & the military. He’s purposely picked people to destroy these agencies. This is not normal. This must not be accepted. The people in these agencies, who work every day to keep Americans safe, must either resign or fight back. The rest of us must now publicly call out Trump for what he is - an enemy of this country - and be the resistance.
The announcement of Patel as FBI Director nominee brings home even more dramatically how much Trump-- and JD Vance, Russ Vought, and Stephen Miller--are focused on total control of the real power ministries with either true believers or totally compliant figures at their heads.
How reprehensibly stupid is our media, to let Republicans gaslight Trump’s fascism.
Syrians, Ukrainians, Georgians risk everything to tell autocrats to fuck off. Americans can’t even be bothered to take words seriously to defend US democracy from an openly tyrannical kleptocrat.
*Nominated* — he doesn’t get to just “name” people, and this nomination should go down in the same flames that Gaetz did. Completely unqualified fascist hack.
Underappreciated angle to the appointments of Patel, Gaetz, Bondi, et al.
Massive Fuq U to institutions …
But also a huge FU to the Supreme Court, because Trump doesn’t think they will be a check on his campaign of lawless retribution.
Nice work, John Roberts.
