- 60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life. Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever. Our problem isn't a lack of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

- Rep. Mark Alford on Hawley being against Medicaid cuts: "He calls them cuts. I call them savings."
- Alford must be voted out
- Leader Schumer: "The Attorney General must testify before both the House and Senate to explain why gifting Donald Trump a private jet does not violate the emollients clause, which requires congressional approval or any ethics law."
- Chuck Schumer finally has seen the light? He should’ve been blocking Trump’s nominees from the beginning. What a feckless politician. At least he’s doing something.
- Leader Schumer is placing holds on all Justice Department political appointees in response to Trump's acceptance of a $400 million luxury jet as a gift from Qatar's royal family.
- Finally Schumer is doing something.
- As part of the red-carpet treatment, Saudi officials arranged for a fully operational mobile McDonald’s unit to accompany President Trump during his stay. According to local reports, the unit was set up near the Saudi Royal Court.

- How long is the entire Republican Party been grifting? I’m thinking since Reagan?
- It’s incredible that the President of the United States is openly flirting with suspending Habeas Corpus, disappearing people left and right, arresting judges and politicians, accepting ludicrous bribes from foreign countries, and people are still trying to normalize this shit.

- Also, he told me his business has been going down recently. I didn’t say anything, but there are plenty of other liquor stores nearby that you can go to that aren’t insane Maga supporters.
- As if the Trump administration is gonna find out who instigated the fires in the Palisades? They’d only do that if someone was giving them money.
- In 2024, Biden signed into law a $105 billion measure designed to end a shortfall in air traffic controllers. In 2025, Trump came in and instead began firing hundreds of them. So you can see how *clear* it is that Biden is to blame for the shortage now.
- The Trump administration, the main qualification is be able to lie with a straight face. A bunch of liars and grifter. I hope we as a nation can recover.

- New Yorkers, do not rank Cuomo on your list of mayoral candidate choices!!!

- TODAY the NYT publishes an investigation into the Trump memecoin $TRUMP and how it has turned into a extraordinary venue for foreign influence campaigns.

View full threadCorruption requires explict quid pro quo. It is not corrupt to take an action that aligns with the interest of a person who gives you a gift, unless the official action was in direct response to that gift--a bribe. Terms matter. Accuracy and fairness matters. Regardless of what social media wants.
- Lipton has lost his mind. Is someone paying him too?

- ICE agents continue to wreak havoc on the West Coast in questionable raids. One of them left two children alone and stranded at a gas station after ICE took away their father. www.sfgate.com/centralcoast...

- The real question is, why is anyone still using WhatsApp? I quit using that after Zuckerberg bought it.
- Pirro is the 23rd former Fox employee Trump has named to his administration. She's wildly unqualified to be DC's top prosecutor and was been described by her former executive producer as a "reckless lunatic." Gonna thread some of her lowlights.

- Scott Galloway is on TV and I think he seems like a real out of touch jerk
- I have long said that we need to microdose right wingers. They would have a real awakening.
- Loving all the non-Catholic conservatives who are insisting that the cardinals “made this all about politics.” Yeah, they’re the ones doing that. Good job.
- On another note, it’s a Catholic conservatives, the cult members who are ruining democracy… see Opus Dei and how many of the right wingers in government belong to this cult
- I’ll be honest, I didn’t grow up watching PBS. I didn’t watch Sesame Street, Arthur, Reading Rainbow, and the rest. But even though it wasn’t part of my childhood, I absolutely recognize how essential PBS and NPR are to the public and the role they play in informing and educating communities.
- They showed the electric company when I was in elementary school. That shit was on fire.
- Emily Feiner was forcibly removed from GOP Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall after she asked her so-called "moderate" congressman to stand up to Donald Trump's authoritarian power grab. There's a great pushback happening across the entire country — even in Republican held districts.

- I’d like to thank the average Bsky user for reminding me that my fellow white people fucking suck, and it’s not just men or cishets or X/FB users but fucking almost everyone almost everywhere almost all the fucking time!

- Well, I am one of his constituents, and I have an opinion as you have yours
- On blue sky people just need to scroll on by. No I do think Chuck Schumer should retire.
- New York has changed for the worse in ways--more expensive, worse for art and artists--but it's also always changed. For any person, especially someone young, to think they knew the real New York and now it's gone is silly. The New York you're nostalgic for also paved over other true New Yorks.
- And my neighborhood, Greenwich Village, it’s still there. It’s still a neighborhood feeling. The people that have rent controlled departments or bought a long time ago. They’re still neighborhood people. You just can’t move in unless you buy an apartment for $1 million.

- Agreed. Mitch McConnell could’ve ended this all by actually impeaching Trump and setting a standard. Bought and sold by billionaires, the conservative party. The GOP is gone forever. They’re all Nazis now.
- If we’re doing this, here are orgs we should strip of tax exempt status: - Heritage Foundation - Stand Together - Americans for Prosperity - Cato Institute - Mackinac Center - State Policy Network - PragerU - RealClear Foundation - TPUSA - Claremont Institute - Council for National Policy - SPN
- Scientology suing for nonprofit status ruined us
- $2 billion corruption scheme. Why does Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump? Why do they get a pass on taking 2 billion from Saudi Arabia? I thought Saudi Arabia was behind the bombing of the World Trade Center. What has happened to American conservatives?
- By banning federal funding for gain-of-function research, Trump exploits public fear to undermine scientific progress. This political gesture ignores expert consensus and weakens global preparedness against future pandemics.
