The Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 called for dismantling the NOAA, which provides warnings of natural disasters, such as the deadly floods in Texas. The irony is that Heritage wanted these cuts because it’s angry that NOAA helps prove the reality of climate change--the thing causing floods.

You're lucky if they only sit there. Ours pee on the cases to show their displeasure. We have to pack in the closet.

It's the same with cars at food banks; sometimes volunteers pick up to deliver to the homebound or to individual families. Some people just use the nice cars or clothes out to excuse doing nothing.

I see the benefits of this approach, but I was very happy to have my phone on my solo Caminos to reassure family back home. I didn't find that it detracted from the experience.

OTOH, we don't particularly want to normalize the profane and bizarre.

INCREDIBLE opinion by Wilkinson refusing to stay Judge Xinis's orders in the Abrego Garcia case, condemning DOJ's arguments as "shocking not only to judges, but to the intuitive sense of liberty that Americans far removed from courthouses still hold dear."

This is the kind of thing that, if true, leads to life sentences for treason

Not good.

President Biden was fond of saying β€œwe just have to remember who we are” to encourage Americans to hold fast to our core values, ideals, and common decency.

Libraries and museums help us remember who we are.

They’re a threat to authoritarians everywhere.

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary.

I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

You have to see this.

PoliticsGirl and her husband teamed up with the brilliant Timothy Snyder (author of On Tyranny) and the legendary John Lithgow to create something truly powerful. It’s important, it’s urgentβ€”and it needs to be shared far and wide.
