A reminder that sweet, happy Paola is available for adoption through Pooch Carriage Crew dog rescue in Oklahoma! She's a 2 year old standard poodle or poodle mix. We love fostering her but she deserves her forever family.

Measles and tariffs, what century is this?

But so too are the abuses of power, so is the corruption, so are the police state tactics, so is the destruction of our health care infrastructure, so are the ways our national security is being endangered, so are the attacks on our core freedoms.

If you let the executive deport people to a foreign gulag just by pronouncing the word βterrorism,β then expect to be called a βterroristβ soon yourself.

With these exceedingly unqualified men getting appointed to positions under Musk/Trump, I think we need to accept the obvious conclusion that they slept their way to the top.
Seems only fair that they be painted with the same brush that they try to use on literally every woman who *is* qualified.
They continue to tell this debunked lie π€₯ for a reason: so when they cut social security to pave the way for their tax cuts for the rich you think they had an actual reason to do it.
