- Americans don't care about Trump properties going through in Qatar, the UAE, or Saudi Arabia; but if Joe Biden or Barack Obama did the same thing, it would be the end of the world.
- Wait a minute. I've been stuck in Myrtle Beach for 2 weeks?
- WTH man? Real World bro also serving as Transportation Sec Sean Duffy reportedly changed his wife's flight to avoid Newark and then went on TV to broadcast it's safe to fly in and out of Newark. @paleofuture.bsky.social w the details. ↘️
- And there you have it. Let's keep blaming Democrats, right?
- Another reason I'm proud to live in Jersey.
- Oh no. You're not insulting Om.
- I mean it was all right there in Project 2025. I don't want to hear this isn't what Americans voted for.
- Never underestimate the power of authoritarianism.
- And just like that -- Trump's own crisis gets a delay and Americans will treat him as a hero.
- Reposted by Michael MartinezJust curious, what’s the tariff on a $400 million jet from Qatar?
- Funny how I get blocked for defending the will of the American people. They voted for Trump in 2024 and Republicans across the board. I give no excuses for them fully knowing they were voted for Project 2025. So, I hope we all prepared accordingly.

- Reposted by Michael MartinezOne of the thing that angers me most about unaccountable federal police, including ICE, but also police in general--is every step over the last 30 years to aggrandize their power has been met with warnings that exactly this would happen.
- Reposted by Michael Martinez“Abolish ICE” is the moderate position. Radical is “prosecute every ICE employee under RICO.”
- This is incredibly disturbing, but not unexpected given our new authoritarian values.
- Reintegration is key, now more than ever with the power vacuum that has opened around the world.
- Can I just say that @steveliesman.bsky.social has been on fire on MSNBC over the last day? An actual economist educating viewers how detrimental tariffs are to Americans, and how it does not reign in trade deficits -- like the Trump Administration claims.
- America has broken all trust in the world, in more ways than one -- Politicized intelligence agencies make us all less safe, and we should pay attention here.
- Another intelligence loss for the U.S. Ally Denmark likely to stop sharing intelligence. For no gain. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/08/w...
- Microsoft has successfully done two things to Surface -- used less powerful components in the name of fighting tariffs and continuing to enshitify the brand equity. arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025...

- Due to Trump's FAA cuts, United tells me I'm unable to fly out of Newark to Myrtle Beach to see my parents. I don't have time for airline Wack-a-Mole, so I'm getting in the car and driving now. #ThanksTrump
