I think most Americans do know how the Senate works. Its composition is undemocratic and its purpose is to preserve the interests of the wealthy.

The US Senate was set up as an undemocratic institution to protect the rich from the wishes of the masses and even with changing to direct elections I’d say it’s still doing a pretty good job at that. It should be abolished and the House expanded to 1,000 members.

If Democrats are going to betray us we need new Democrats. All this Utah hype for McAdams? Do you think he wouldn’t betray us? I have my doubts. If we get a Dem district in Utah we should elect a Democrat.

I’ve never voted for Bernie but man, I think I should have. Medicare for all.

Schumer is a political dead man walking.

50 year mortgages are insanity.

Go Jasmine!

Tonight, the evil, terrorist nation of Russia is launching ballistic missiles and drones at civilians again, like they do every night.

Putin will rot

No, he doesn’t care.

The Trump administration in one photo.

Catching up on #GBBO. Sad to see Toby go in the semi-finals. On to the finals.

Love it. Gays vote. We’re not going to be erased again.

Team spent some time at the Food Bank today boxing up apples from pallets. A little different than our usual labors.

He’s telling New Yorkers they’re citizens not subjects. Of course Zohran frightens the billionaires and the fascists.

Hopefully he’s the history of the Democratic Party.

My entire knowledge of Judaism consists of reading several Chaim Potok novels in High School, that Barbara Streisand movie, “Fiddler on the Roof”, and various references in other media, but I have been loving “Nobody Wants This” on Netflix.

I’m 100% in favor of getting rid of the filibuster. We need a democratic Senate. Then we will see if the reason we can’t get a people first agenda through the Senate (When Dems are the majority) is because of the filibuster or because Dem US Senators are doing the will of their corporate masters.

When Trump was first threatening tariffs on Colombia I bought a bunch of coffee. So today I bought coffee for the first time in 5-6 months. Kroger Breakfast Blend. I like what I like. Last time I bought it it was $9.99 regular price for 24 oz. Today $13.99. 40% increase!

Is it a lot per facility based on the size of the facility, based on the circulation, based on the relative cost of living between Fulton County, Georgia and Salt Lake County, Utah, based on the age of the libraries, based on the services offered? What? Nope, just seem high.

You didn’t look into it and you know nothing about it but, sure, let’s post about it.

Trump’s America

It’s amazing to me that the Speaker of the House never seems to have the slightest idea of what is going on in this country. The only thing he seems to have any knowledge of/opinion about is if Bad Bunny should play the Super Bowl halftime show.

The weather in Salt Lake City on Saturday looks gorgeous for a protest.

Spiraling as is expected after an Oklahoma loss to Texas. This is the one game each year that an Oklahoma coach must win. BV is 1-3 against Texas. So by definition a failure.

Today’s the day. You hold your breath. You can’t look and you can’t look away. It’s OU-Texas.

It feels weird to be a CFB fan and be excited for this week’s games as the Trump dictatorship attacks Americans in their homes and consolidates power.

So now she’s concerned about vulnerable Americans 🤣

HUD.gov today. This is not normal or acceptable.

Seven years ago today, Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi was tortured, murdered and then dismembered. And any so-called comedian who can't stand up tonight in Riyadh and do ten minutes on that kind of hijinx and horseplay just isn't worth the Saudi blood money he's being paid.
