Senator Bernie Sanders @sanders.senate.gov · Jan 13

For Trump to put his name on the Kennedy Center and other federal buildings is not only arrogant and narcissistic, it is illegal. We must put an end to sitting presidents naming buildings after themselves — and that’s what my bill does.

Thank you Bernie for all you do for the American people.

@akilsanders.bsky.social · Jan 13

Bernie Bernie Bernie, you always make me look at you sideways! I know you are on the right side, but you always come with some that just feels like you are out of touch! Get back in the game sir! We need you talking about the atrocities not the vanities!

Eve · Jan 14

The sickest part of this was he did it just as JFK’s granddaughter was dying. The family grieving had to see Trump’s name being put up on The Kennedy Center!

I know you and @aoc.bsky.social

Ask John Kennedy he knows

@sanders.senate.gov Get your eye back on the ball. This is small potatoes compared to what's happening on the streets. ICE must be stopped.

@retiredburdette.bsky.social · Jan 13

Thank you Bernie Sanders! ❤️

We need to pass a war powers bill limiting and or completely forbidding any military action against #Denmark in an attempt to annex #Greenland. That will destroy our multilateral alliance network, encourage #China to move on #Tiawan, encourage Russia to move against #Europe and lead to #nuclear war.

Just part of the growing list of things patriots will ultimately have to throw on the Bonfire of Trump's Vanity.

I feel like people protesting ice is not protesting the thing that will actually make the change, if people protested against the republicans in congress who are the ones who have allowed all of these illegal actions to continue to take place by not impeaching the president...

manitoban · Jan 16

From a foreign perspective, it looks like you are already there with an authoritarian government. Keep fighting the fight Bernie. Democracy needs you!

@diedradee.bsky.social · Jan 14

Thank you for holding these criminals in charge accountable!

And spending a lot of our tax money!!!

Can we please stop animal testing?! This is not humane. It's animal cruelty. Who in Congress do I need to beg to stop this?! Cr; @humaneworldforanimals

Geri Silveira · Jan 14

Good for you, Bernie. You are a treasure.🙂

FreeFrog · Jan 14

It’s time to discuss his mental incompetence and consider full impeachment if he won’t step down.

@keagleflubbins.bsky.social · Jan 13

How about amending the constitution to override presidential pardons?

Katie · Jan 14

I can take care of the name thing myself with a wrench and a putty knife, what I really need is for you and all the Democrats to grind things to a halt unless and until ICE is defunded and held accountable for violating the law and brutalizing the people.

Philip Bagley · Jan 13

Bernie we love you but what the hell are you doing? There are armed goons terrorizing people and the President is threatening war with an ally. Starting to think it's past time for you to pass the torch to a new generation of leadership.

@comtechdiagnostics.bsky.social · Jan 14

. Trump will VETO it.

@nomercy2026.bsky.social · Jan 13

CALL TO ACTION - the DAY OF RECKONING is coming SOON: Keep collecting and documenting ALL the evidence for the soon upcoming mass tribunal trials of HIM, ALL his willful henchmen, ALL ICE goons as part of the Nuremberg Tribunal Trials 2.0. No proof beyond reasonable doubt needed. No mercy …

@adayinmylife64.bsky.social · Jan 15

How about a bill preventing ice from killing citizens who talk mean to them! Oh that’s right, that law already exists but ice are too stupid to read.

@scienceplease.bsky.social · Jan 13

"We must..." Okay. I must be a millionaire. I'm not doing anything to be one, just sayin'. Just like Democrats. How about some doin'?

Bihalurzakas · Jan 13

He has to name this stuff after himself as long as he is in charge, because he knows: After this is over, nothing will ever be named after him and everything named after him will be renamed. History will not be nice to his reign of stupidity.

I AM NOONE · Jan 14

Bernie, I have no interest in hearing about unimportant issues when the 1st, 4th, 5th, 6th etc... Amendments are being trashed and my children are afraid of tRumps gestapo, ICE.

@kimkadrmas.bsky.social · Jan 14

If Trump wants to be treated as a dictator. Can we not overthrow him as a dictator would be? As a traitor to America? Since he is doing everything possible to destroy America. Including the destruction of America's property by tearing down part of the White House without permission.

Dave Brockman 💙💛 · Jan 13

It gets worse: now there's an airport named after him en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mor%C3%...

JaxBBax · Jan 14

Acting like it's business as usual... smh Or, just putting garbage out there. Sanders, Trump nor any of his sychophants are interested in following laws already enacted that don't suit them. Imagine if Biden & Garland actually followed laws & the Constitution instead of "norms & traditions".

SL Holling · Jan 18

Do not fund ICE again.

Esmeralda P · Jan 28

Feel the Bern!!.

@iniseoghain.bsky.social · Jan 13

Well, there can be exceptions, Bernie. He should be allowed to name any sewage works after himself, given he is stinking the place out so much.

Greg · Jan 14

Barney doesn’t want Trump to remove the F-35s stationed in Burlington, VT (which is kind of ironic in itself). Wouldn’t be good for the Vermont economy. So pick a subject that Trump can just laugh at. God bless him (Barney, not Trump).

@harywilke.bsky.social · Jan 14

He’s ignoring the law on the books, the answer is not putting another law on the books. Impeachment is the answer. Failure to uphold the law.

Impulsive Typing · Jan 13

C'mon Bernie, we have armed militias in our streeets.

Carol K Butler · Jan 14

But he is a nonstop law breaker and NO ONE ARRESTS HIM!!! I have struggled for months, years wondering why this war criminal is not in jail. NO ONE ELSE IN THIS COUNTRY WOULD GET AWAY WITH THIS. Why?????

@sakata-bs.bsky.social · Jan 14

Or you guys could release the Epstein files and watch that guy get buried under the prison. But here we sit.

@techonomikz.bsky.social · Jan 14

If Congress doesn’t impeach this moron fast enough, the blood of our 2nd Civil War will be on ALL your hands and the people will not forget at the end of it. STOP.FUCKING.TALKING.

John Wares · Jan 13

Bernie - appreciate you - he clearly doesn’t give a fuck if anything is legal.

Noah Spence · Jan 14

This is far from the most important issue, but i appreciate the spirit. Im more worried about ICE and all the wars Trump seems to wanna start

@chrissy525.bsky.social · Jan 13

This is what dictators do. In America we don't bow to dictators or kings.

Tucker Drake · Jan 14

Let's just go ahead and ban any US government building being named after a living person. Even better would be requiring that they have to be dead for at least 10 years before a building could be named after them.

Judy Peterson · Jan 13

Excellent! We need a clear and consistent message. Issues like this are important because they are so transparent and easy for everyone to understand. Not everyone has the time to be on Bluesky. ✨🇺🇸⚖️

makelessnoise · Jan 13

Is this really the biggest fish to fry right now?

🤭 you can just take a sweet video with @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and you will be spared from supporting the fascist regime. 🤢 stop the unanimous agreements you evil ghoul !

Sock Puppet Pundit · Jan 13

Can we abolish ICE first?

Trump & Epstein were business partners · Jan 13

I luv ya, Bernie. But #OrangeHitler putting his name on buildings is pretty low on my list of priorities right now. America isn't just "creeping" towards #fascism. We're ROCKETING towards it (with his #gICEtapo and private #pardoned SS roaming the streets, invading homes & killing protesters.)

Ron Gandrud · Jan 14

to think this never came up for any president except repugnents.

cjvox · Jan 13

I will support that.

@furryninja.bsky.social · Jan 14

Seriously?! i c e is out there MURDERING PEOPLE, and you're worried about a name on a building?! JFC Bernie, priorities.

Can't a restroom be named for him?

anony999.bsky.social · Jan 14

Really, you think that is the priority right now ? DO SOMETHING USEFUL!!!

Grim Gearheart ⚙💙 · Jan 14

Trump's just distracting everyone from the Epstein files. You should be focusing solely on the Epstein files.

@rdm70.bsky.social · Jan 13

How bout putting his name on some healthcare legislation

We must put an end to the criminal who calls himself president.

The Church of Cosmic Oneness · Jan 13

Does he even understand and comprehend that he has to be dead for that to actually happen?

Nate · Jan 13

How about you call for his removal already?! A name on a building is bad, but the actual bullshit he is doing to the country is worse, so stand the hell up already.

@annesteve.bsky.social · Jan 15

DO SOMETHING!!!!!!

Elbrazodeonofre · Jan 14

Just name the Supreme Court Building after him and call it quits that would make more sense since Chief Justice Roberts anointed him Unitary Immune Executive aka Supreme Leader. Roberts could look up every morning when he went to work in order finish the writing assignments he’s given by the regime.

@travelnista.bsky.social · Jan 13

Boycott

@jlm617.bsky.social · Jan 27

Career politicians are a real problem. Neal and a handful of longtime members of Congress have held office for more than 300 years combined. That isn’t representation—it’s capture. If the system feels broken, it’s because the same people have been running it for decades.

FreedomFighter · Jan 13

On top of that, he's also a Convicted Felon

@m56h.bsky.social · Jan 13

Good luck with that bill, sir. The narcissist in chief appears unstoppable in branding anything and everything with his name.

@lopulse.bsky.social · Jan 13

Umm... dare I say this is only the narcissists issue Biden didn't name anything after himself Nor Obama, or even GWBjr. This is a Trump problem. Signs and buildings can be fixed when he's gone People he's shooting... less able to be fixed

thanks for focusing on the most important issues, bernie. nothing more pressing to talk about than building names

Crazy Hair Large Forehead · Jan 15

@sanders.senate.gov wonderful legislation! May I also offer my suggestion to propose legislation that DHS agent uniforms (including ICE, CPB & BP) will get their own distinct color to highlight their special role and that that color should be brown to match the soil of the motherland they defend?

@nwmoonbow.bsky.social · Jan 13

Honestly seems like the least of the problems right now, but it is despicable. Daily destruction of America continues.

Enforce the existing law, and introduce this after we rebuild this country when the regime is done burning it down.
