I bet Trump is jealous of Reagan’s hair, among other things.

Also Trump is temperamentally a bully and Venezuela is a small, poor country with many black and brown people.

Dems didn't beat Reps by much. Is Mikie going to be OK?

The Women's Industrial Exchange, which closed in 2020 after 140 years, was founded in 1880 to help women earn an income at a time when jobs for women outside the home were scarce.

A National Votes for Women Trail plaque in front of the former Women's Industrial Exchange Building on N. Charles St in Baltimore. The NVWT "seeks to recognize and celebrate the enormous diversity of people and groups active in the struggle for women’s suffrage."

I sent @katmabu.bsky.social some money today. Bet I'm not the only one.

Maybe you need to install the "find my journal" app

Bitterly ironic because it's the "fascist administration" that should be targeted for tossing Kat around like a sack of potatoes.

Tear the ballroom down and make the corporate sponsors of the ballroom pay for the demolition.

A Bears fan visiting from Chicago sprayed pro-Bears graffiti at Graffiti Alley yesterday and was unopposed by the Baltimore defense who just stood around and watched. Foreshadowing?

You've heard of "soft openings." The Republicans have resorted to a "soft closing" of the House of Representatives.

DT is itching to go to war. First it was Panama, then it was Greenland and Canada he wanted to invade. More black and brown people in Venezuela, so I guess they won the lottery.

Someone should check the bathrooms at Mar-a-Lago.

For example, planes can go down, soldiers can get captured and held as hostages. A lot can go wrong from the US point of view.

Demolish what Trump builds and make the corporate sponsors of the ballroom pay for the demolition and reconstruction.

ICE in Roland Park looking for landscapers? I can believe it.

And laying the predicate to claim "war powers" to ramp up domestic repression.

I really don't think Saudi Arabia should be paying our military.

I wonder if Whitmer was traumatized by that plot to kill her. It was such a detailed and explicit plot and only stopped at the last minute. She knows there are more plotters out there. Maybe she's shook. I wouldn't blame her if she were.

We can get the corporate sponsors of Trump's ballroom to finance its destruction and replacement. Seems only fair.

That would be perfectly reasonable.

You're making a Connections reference, I believe.

Methinks you stumbled on Connections this morning.
