ICE must be held accountable for the existing laws they’re breaking. I don’t think they’re going to stop if Congress passes legislation making the same crimes SUPER DOUBLE ILLEGAL

As if watching the downfall of our government wasn't stressful enough, now I have to worry about whether I'll have a job next school year. Of course, working at a public Title 1 school, the two issues are strongly related.

My heart is broken tonight. At the same time it is filled with rage.
I stand with Minnesota. ICE needs to get the fuck out of Minneapolis.
As for the entire Trump administration: Impeach. Convict. Remove.

Thank you. Start with Noem, continue with the rest of this corrupt administration. They ALL need to go.

Not that anybody asked, but If you accumulated all the flora, fauna, and metal that your True Love gives you each day in the “Twelve Days of Christmas” song, you would own 12 Trees, 40 Gold Rings, 140 Humans, and 185 Birds of 6 different species.

Seeing the "Quiet, Piggy" video made my blood boil. The fact that so many Americans thought a man who would say such a thing to a woman makes me sick to my stomach. Release the files and impeach the Tangerine Tyrant. He's a waste of air.

Watching the hubby play the Silent Hill 2 remake and drinking a beer. Not a bad Friday night.

JoCo songs were my kids' bedtime lullabies for many years. I'd never know what they'd request, so I had to know many JoCo songs by heart.

Involving women in peace deals reduces chance of a conflict restarting by up to 37% A comprehensive study of recent civil wars highlights the role women can play in sustainable peace processes.

Your Zoey looks like my Zoey! 😅

The government has chosen not to pay for SNAP benefits out of their contingency funds during the shutdown. MAHA = Make America Hungry Again.
Now is a good time to donate to your local food bank. Food donations are good, monetary donations are greatly appreciated.

So, the Tangerine Tyrant is currently in Egypt. Wouldn't it be great if we just didn't let him back in the US? How can we make that happen?

Bought a shirt and a bunch of stickers with the design I made in Canva. Does this make me Antifa?

Have a nice day 😊

The technofascists think they have us. Nothing could be further from the truth. They will NOT take our country from us. They will not estrange us from its laws nor its rights. They will yield to the people. There are more of us, and we WILL be heard.

The weirdest thing about Comey being indicted is TRUMP IS IN THE EPSTEIN FILES.
Distraction.

In case you didn't know, Tylenol does not cause autism. Just because a narcissist says it, doesn't make it so. He and his unqualified toady are saying what they want, despite scientific evidence to the contrary. Also, release the Epstein files.

Apparently criticizing Trump is "illegal". Well, you know what? He's lumpy and he smells bad. Also, he's a terrible president. The worst.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

Cancelled my Hulu/Disney+ subscription, and told them exactly why.

Remember, authoritarians will manufacture a crisis in order to help them seize control. That's why this administration has such fearful rhetoric 24/7. Don't buy into it. Resist.

My daughter finally wants to read a book I recommended! Here's hoping "The Lightning Struck Heart" is a winner and she realizes her mother is sometimes cool. Sometimes.

One of the most remarkable things of the last 9 months is how many Americans seem to believe the President is all powerful and Congress has no say.
Actually Congress has been ineffective by choice. It has immense power if it had the courage to use it.

If releasing the Epstein files would end your presidency, then your presidency needs to end.

Release ALL the Epstein files!

Robo Cop was the first movie I saw that was rated R for violence. I was 12 and traumatized.
