I am 82, so I have no animus toward the aged (“some of my best friends…). But I find the fact that enfeebled geriatrics like Grassley and his overlord choosing justices that will rule over my children’s lives infuriating.
In tonight's speech, the president did what he does best: celebrate himself. But if anyone was looking for leadership focused on easing their current economic pain, he made clear that they'll need to look elsewhere.
Of all Presidementia's prior State-of-the-Unions I've not watched in the past, tonight's State-of-the-Union is the State-of-the-Union I'm not watching the most. 🍊🚫
Most criminal regime in US history. Failure of Justice is why generations suffer. Leaders should be trying to remove him, regardless of odds. Make Reps take the fall for him.
I sat down with 20 undecided Texas voters on @jubileemedia.bsky.social’s Surrounded.
One of them brought up “welfare queens” so I told him the truth:
The biggest welfare queens in this country are the giant corporations that don’t pay a penny in federal taxes.
Nah. I will never trust this hag.
Corruption, right out in the daylight.
What a fucking asshat.
Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom
WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.
Our reps should have stopped him before it got this bad. I feel absolutely helpless and angry.
“The cleanest ocean water anyone has ever seen… until China’s dirty ocean water floated over.”
Ugh. We have Tom Cotton here. Dear God.

Ever since I bought my first Kid Rock cd in college and saw him giving me the finger printed on it, I’ve felt like he can go ahead and eat a dick. What a moron.
Stansbury: Let’s take the argument to its logical extension that this is about making sure we have qualified individuals inside the federal government. My question is then why is the president-elect choosing absolutely unqualified cabinet secretaries to be at the head of every single agency?
THE COVER-UP CONTINUES: Republicans on the House Ethics Committee voted against releasing the Ethics Report that allegedly contains damning information about Trump AG pick Matt Gaetz related to child sex trafficking and other crimes.
Lee: When Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was up for confirmation or when VP Harris was added to the ticket, they called them DEI hires. They want you to believe that Harvard graduate with over 20 years of experience is not qualified but Fox personality is qualified to run the DOD
Fox News: NEW: Hill Republicans are discussing the merits of a Constitutional theory saying Trump could work with Mike Johnson to adjourn Congress, bypassing the Senate and forcing through Trump’s Cabinet picks via recess appointment
This would destroy the Senate’s traditional right to give advice and consent to all top White House appointments. It would be a dangerous realignment of power, giving Mike Johnson a way around the Senate. It must be rejected.
Right-wingers are not coming to this platform for any reason other than to be obnoxious trolls to people who just want to be left alone. They are not here for any useful or constructive purpose. They only want to tear down and insult. It’s all they know. It’s how they live.
Morgan Stanlety reported today that by 2026, Felon-Elect , the GOP & their policies are going to steer this economy into a ditch
But…BUT… the price of eggs!
Post from Adam If Matt Gaetz DIDNT rape a minor, the GOP would have released the report. Just fyi
Raw unvarnished truth here.
I will never be okay with the fact that he got away with this.
New in PN: RFK Jr. is a massive public health threat
"Kennedy has articulated a vision that will, if enacted, lead to the deaths of untold numbers of people, many of whom have not even been born. It's difficult to overstate the long-term danger he poses."
I wonder if Blueskies know one of the men behind Musk's Twitter purchase is the son of Russian oligarch, Kremlin agent and Trump-Russia figure Petr Aven. Last month's revelation that Musk was quietly in contact with Putin for years seems to confirm the Musk-Twitter op as an election interference op.
