Mrs. Betty Bowers' Bluesky post today

The "young intern" at the White House who has been retweeting juvenile, racist, and otherwise embarrassing material from Donald Trump's account for at least 11 years was born on June 14, 1946 at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center, New York, NY. He sometimes goes by the name John Barron.

Trump is a curse on humanity, and doesn’t have one one millionth of Obama’s class, character, wit, intelligence or cool. And Trump is so jealous of Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize that he threatened to start a war with Europe over it.

Thanks to those who gave me hearts.

I love you all

Did Trump $HIT himself during yesterday's Oval Office press briefing?

"Voter suppression is one of the core tools of authoritarianism. It is how you shift from democracy to autocracy. And for millions of Americans, it’s about to become the norm"

When the U.S. Supreme Court said that you could detain people based on their race, their accent, or the language they spoke… there is nothing to preclude ICE from doing that while you’re standing in line getting ready to cast a ballot.

ICE told nurses: "This Minneapolis man purposely ran headfirst into a brick wall"

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

Marc Elias' Bluesky post today

NEW: A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.

Ma'am, this is fraud in FEDERAL programs.

Ma’am, this is fraud in FEDERAL programs.

You’re a member of Congress.

Have you fully outsourced your oversight duties to Donald Trump, or just your thinking?
