Yes! Now I miss a day of pay AND have a doctor’s visit to pay for also.

REQUIRING DOCTOR’S NOTES IN ORDER TO EXCUSE ABSENCES IS BY DESIGN CLASSIST—ESPECIALLY IN A COUNTRY WITHOUT UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE!!

Congratulations to the Toronto Blue Jays on a magnificent season. It is a shame either team had to lose. And this was a gut punch. 💔💔

Classy players, fanbase, and truly one of the finest cities in the world.

Future is bright with Yeasavage, Barger, and Vladdy.

Now go re-sign Bo.

Honestly, same

It was great being back in Norfolk to help get out the vote for @abigailspanberger.com for Governor.

Virginia – Abigail Spanberger cares about your freedoms, she will fight for your rights, and she will work every day to make your life a little bit better.

Why do people buy pizza with EBT?

Because cauliflower is five dollars a head and you can buy five pizzas with the same money.

It’s not that folks don’t want to be healthy. They can’t afford to be healthy.

What he said: 💯 🎯

Kamala Harris: It is about reminding folks that we refuse to kneel at the foot of a tyrant. That's not what we do. We stand for the principles upon which our nation was founded. We believe in the power of the vote, and we are prepared when necessary to fight fire with fire.

@realDonaldTrump It is very important that the Drug Companies justify the success of their various Covid Drugs. Many people think they are a miracle that saved Millions of lives. Others disagree! With CDC being ripped apart over this question, I want the answer, and I want it NOW. I have been shown information from Pfizer, and others, that is extraordinary, but they never seem to show those results to the public. Why not??? They go off to the next “hunt” and let everyone rip themselves apart, including Bobby Kennedy Jr. and CDC, trying to figure out the success or failure of the Drug Companies Covid work. They show me GREAT numbers and results, but they don’t seem to be showing them to many others. I want them to show them NOW, to CDC and the public, and clear up this MESS, one way or the other!!! I hope OPERATION WARP SPEED was as “BRILLIANT” as many say it was. If not, we all want to know about it, and why??? Thank you for your attention to this very important matter!

President Donald Trump is outraged that Americans are footing an unfair financial burden, citing a 2020 trade deal called the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement that he signed. The president claimed during a White House press conference Monday that the impacts of the USMCA will be alleviated with a 25% tariff on all Canadian and Mexican goods starting next week, and unwittingly criticized himself after rebuking America’s neighbors. “I mean, who can blame them if they made these great deals with the United States, took advantage of the United States on manufacturing?” Trump said Monday. “On just about anything, every aspect you can imagine, they took advantage.”

The mental fitness of elderly Presidents has been such an important issue for the media lately, so I expect wall-to-wall coverage of how President Trump has once again thrown a fit about one of his own signature policies, showing no awareness of how it arose or who executed it.

But now she has 175 million dollars worth of private jets so problem solved.

And defunding USAID.

I wish more people understood economics---when we do good for others, we do good for OURSELVES.

SNAP dollars return to communities & support jobs. USAID provides markets for American farmers. Medicaid supports rural hospitals. Ukraine aid is spent at defense contractors HERE.

More than 170 US citizens have been held by immigration agents ProPublica uncovered that Americans have been kicked, dragged, and detained for days.

Kristi Noem claims that ICE has not detained or arrested any US citizens. We're calling BS.

You need to understand that he actually believes it is illegal to criticize him. Why? Because Trump believes he - not the people - decides the law.

This is why we are in the middle of, not on the verge of, a totalitarian takeover.

He ain’t no Jay Gatsby.

Dr. James C. Jackson of Vanderbilt University takeaway from today’s IACC Expert Panel on Long Covid and other chronic conditions:

Brain fog is not an accurate term. It needs to be referred to as brain damage.

Yup.

I am certainly no seasoned strategist but I am a little skeptical of the political wisdom behind building a giant golden ballroom and sharing a dozen photos of a renovated marble bathroom at the very moment that millions of people are losing access to healthcare and food.

Zuckerberg apparently didn’t clap, possibly because empathy isn’t a feature in beta yet👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

ME WANT YOU TO VOTE YES ON PROP 50, CA!!!!!! 🍪

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

(below a photo of masked ICE agents) “ICE goes masked for a single reason-to terrorize Americans into quiescence. Small wonder ICE often seems to need our respected military to guard them as they go about implementing our immigration laws... Can you imagine a masked Marine? It is a matter of honor-and honor still matters. To us, masks are associated with cowardly desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan.” Judge William Young Reagan Appointee

Who knows if he’s really Ice! Another huge problem we have is fake agents. You can literally buy those badges and gear online!

Child Abuse, too. Nothing could be more traumatizing to a young brain and spirit.

Found the Black Knight in my "Spamalot" press kit, and the felt/gold trim was $4 at craft store. World's most patient schnauzer? Priceless. #halloween
