A shot from inside a cave looking out at the Mediterranean Sea. Snorkeling amongst some rocks near Damoni Beach on Crete, I saw this cave so I swam in. It was about 30 meters deep and I ended up in waist deep water. It was incredibly peaceful in there until I started thinking about snakes and freaked myself out.

The first and last lines of Joni Ernstโ€™s legacy as a human on earth will be that she was instrumental in the confirmation of the Sec of Defense most hostile to women serving in military, and she knew that when she voted for him.

Did you know -1

Canada is the largest supplier of U.S. energy imports, providing crude oil, natural gas, & electricity

1/2 of US imported aluminum & 1/5 of its imported steel isfrom Canada

Losing Canadian energy & metals would raise U.S. costs & threaten power reliability.

My political hot take is that US voters should be able to recall elected representatives via petition - at any time.
No more hiding behind election terms.

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

Authoritarianism can only succeed when democracy fails to deliver for working people.

Authoritarian parties can only succeed when the pro-democracy parties fail to fight for working people.

We need a new democracy and a new party system which can represent working people.

Access to Hemp Is in Jeopardyโ€”Hereโ€™s What You Can Do See how our advocacy is influencing policy, uplifting communities, and building a more accessible future for plant-based health.

Tell lawmakers: Strip out the harmful hemp language from the Agriculture, Rural Development, FDA, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act. Itโ€™s unrelated to the bill and would devastate farmers, small businesses, and over 40 million Americans who rely on access to these products. Link below:

Never forget that the only country in NATO history which triggered NATO article 5 is USA after a bunch of Arab terrorists took down some buildings in New York.

Now when Europe is in existential threat by former Soviets, the USA is throwing us bones and expecting gratitude.

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.
