A Democrat has won the mayor's seat in Boca Raton... by one vote:
The Senate just passed the biggest housing bill in 30 years with a huge bipartisan majority.
House Republicans should immediately take up this bill and pass it. If they do not, they will have to explain to American families why they refuse to lower the cost of housing.

The trees act not as individuals, but somehow as a collective. Exactly how they do this, we don’t yet know. But what we see is the power of unity. What happens to one happens to us all. We can starve together or feast together.

People are often puzzled by Trump’s break from reality on polls. If polls say 60% of people oppose him, he announces 127% support.
This may be because he uses internal polls like this one from Truth Social today.
How is he doing? Your only choice is: “Great!!!”

Big Tech is NOT our friend!
It is OUR DATA they want to manipulate in those data centers. they are not trying to help humanity. they want to exploit humanity more efficiently for the very rich (which includes themselves).

#OnThisDay Mar 13 1935: Groundbreaking ceremonies for the Minneapolis Armory, a marquee Public Works Administration project designed to create jobs during the Great Depression. The Armory remains an important historic building in the PWA Moderne style, today reimagined as a downtown events center.

To be loved
By a poet
Is no small thing
My desire
Borders on obsession
My needs
A madness all their own
We are cruel things
Burning away those lies
Which protect your heart
Kindling Compassion
From embers in the darkness
Penning hope
From the ashes
Of who you pretended to be

Love all y’all. Except the ultra right idiots trying to follow our idiot and cut your access to healthcare. Loved the summer I lived there.
After 9/11, I watched 100,000 Canadians standing on Parliament Hill at the memorial service singing The Star Spangled Banner.
I will never, ever not love Canada. 🙏🏼❤️
