I have it on good authority that tRump was awarded the highly coveted “Cockwomble” award. One, which in my humble opinion, he richly deserved👍

It really is that simple..

I see it now😀
I was trying to make it too complicated!

So far, I can’t see it but I’ll come back to it later today😀

Just attended the “Mamma Mia” production at the Paramount Theatre in Seattle. If you get a chance you should put it on your to do list. Whether you are 8 or 80, it’s guaranteed to get your hips moving, your hands clapping & permanent smile on your face😀hu

I’d think this mental genius AKA Taco Don could just use his sharpie to change the storms path. He must be slipping in his old age😇

Just returned from a trip to Japan. If you have never been, you should put it on your bucket list - it’s good medicine & good for the soul

This is beyond disgraceful!!!

Former Atlanta mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms launches bid for Georgia governor Democrat Keisha Lance Bottoms says her one term as Atlanta mayor gave her “battle-tested executive leadership” that she can offer to Georgia voters as she runs for governor.

Very talented, capable & articulate lady who will make Georgians proud. As a Washingtonian, I can’t vote for her but will certainly support her campaign financially!!

Middle School Teacher Resigns After Being Told To Remove An 'Offensive' Sign From Her Classroom Sixth grade teacher Sarah Inama admitted that she doesn't understand how the posters in her classroom snowballed into her quitting.

We need to decide what World it is that we want to live in before it’s decided for us. As for me I vote for inclusion as opposed to exclusion & diversity instead of uniformity. My hat is off to Sarah Inama for her bravery. America needs more like her!!!

@navycrypto.bsky.social were you ever stationed at Kamiseya Japan? I was a Marine stationed there in the 60’s & was part of the Naval Security Group.
Thanks for your service!

Pam Bondi Could Release Files on ‘Potential Misconduct’ by Jack Smith in His Prosecutions of President Trump A request for documents that was stymied by the Biden administration could be fulfilled — with gusto — by the new district attorney.

How is it that Pam Bondi hasn’t lost her law license? It seems to me that nothing she is doing is representative of the oath she took.

Cory Booker is what America, as I perceive it, is all about😀
It’s the Cory Bookers of America that give me faith that what we are currently experiencing is a blip on the radar screen.
See ya at the polls in 2026 to make it so!!

Really nice to see Lawrence O’Donnell back in the newsroom!!

US mistakenly deports man to mega-prison – and can’t get him back

This isn’t about liberal or conservative. It’s totally about right and wrong & the rule of law. A wrong that we can correct at the polls. See ya there in 2026!!!

no State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities the citizens of the United States;nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty or property  without due process of law nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction, the equal protection of the laws

What part of the 14th amendment allows the government to arrest someone without due process and send them off to an El Salvadorian and prison in the dark of the night?
The 14th amendment:

As you read this article about Kilmer Armando Abrego Garcia, who is a Salvadoran immigrant with protected status in the US, ask yourself how this could possibly be happening in our Country where we are all supposedly protected by the constitution and the Bill of Rights

rather than a principle representing a symbol of freedom, this is now viewed as a worn out cliché which to some is an expression of DEI needing to be erased from our history.

The words etched into the Statue of Liberty, “ give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teaming Shore. Send these, the homeless, Tempest tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door”

Wake up America, those currently holding the levers of power in our country, have no respect or regard for the principles upon which our country was built.
The rule of law needs absolutely nothing to these people.

Hard / impossible to understand what people see in tRump but unfortunately a good share of our Country surely do.
I can’t imagine living in Tennessee myself.
See ya at the polls in 2026😀

Well said!!

Trump says he's considering ways to serve a third term as president President Donald Trump says he's considering ways to serve a third term. “I'm not joking,” he says in an NBC News interview.

Of course he is. That’s the only way he could escape going to jail!!

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks…

“The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government.

After Trump claimed millions of dead people were getting social security checks, Trump's pick to lead the agency disputes the statement “The reported data are people in our records with a Social Security number who do not have a date of death associated with their record. These individuals are not necessarily receiving benefits," said...

Never forget that whatever comes out of Trump‘s mouth has no relationship to the truth whatsoever!!!

US HHS drops advisory labeling gun violence a public health crisis The former U.S. surgeon general's 2024 advisory calling gun violence a public health crisis has been take down by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) following orders from the Trump administration.

Trump’s government in action. Gun violence is the leading cause of deaths for 1 to 17 year olds & has been since 2020. I guess when America loves its kids more than it loves it’s guns something will be done but until then……….😡
