PSA: when Trump, @MarshaBlackburn, @BrentTaylorTN and other Republicans mock “socialism” what they’re really mocking is the idea of caring about other people

@randahl The true purpose of the slob's diesel deal with Russia isn't to ease local supply issues.

It's so that, when Ukraine bombs another one of Russia's refineries, the slob can declare Ukraine a terrorist state for attacking a critical American supply line, and either impose sanctions, or attack it directly.

These midterms couldn't be more important. You do not get to sit them out. Ensure your voter registration is current, and then vote Democratic. All offices. No exceptions.

Question reporters should be asking every Republican elected:
Your president trusts Putin, praises Putin, is beholden to Putin, and wants to help Putin annex more of Ukraine.
What are you going to do about it?

@copter_chief If they allow the live streaming of public executions will they have to allow snuff films as well?

RE: bsky.brid.gy/r/https://bsky.ap

I contacted both my senators and my District Representative at their online websites. I left them an explicit note that says no live streaming executions. Don’t let Hegseth get his jollies. He’s a sick twisted person.

@mls14 I seem to recall from when I was little that somewhere I lived had election day as a holiday. It makes so much sense.

@AlliFlowers They could at least make it on a Sunday. I think Sweden is day-of only but Sunday is a much better day.

Or make it a holiday for people to get out of work at least!

#MikeDitka, the quintessential #Chicago Bear, dies at 86

Nicknamed “Iron Mike” as a player, Ditka helped revolutionize the tight-end position, then moved to the sidelines & took over as Chicago’s coach. His 1985 team featured one of the game’s most dominant defenses ever. It also had enough outsized personalities to record a rap video, “The Super Bowl Shuffle,” & back up their boasting in the championship game three months later.

If video games desensitize children to violence and murder, just think what watching public executions will do.

The Trump administration has transformed the agency into an instrument of financial sector chicanery. https://trib.al/YIS6VzA
