I am many things- a mom, a military spouse, a community volunteer, a nonprofit operations/program manager, an avid skier, a cat herder… but really I’m just one in the multitude. My opinion is my own, but I like to think it’s at least educated.

This is from an actual Republican Congressman, from the party that is also locking kids in cages in a concentration camp in Florida, hoping they try to escape and get eaten by alligators.

This is today's Republican Party.

For whose who were curious what a book award-winning paper from a white supremacist University of Florida law student looked like, he's posted it online. It's as horrible (as scholarship, as political theory) as you imagined.

But there's more. 1/2

Landscaper violently detained by agents in Santa Ana has three Marine sons; detained without food or medical aid A Tustin landscaper has been identified by his eldest Marine vet son after he was violently detained by immigration agents in Santa Ana.

“He has always worked hard to put food on the table for us and my mom,” said Alejandro. “He was always careful and always did his taxes on time. He never caused any problems and he is known as a kind and helping person by everyone in our community.” santanero.org/2025/06/21/l...

Thank you to @hcrichardson.bsky.social for pointing out that we make money on our public lands every single year. Why would we sell them when they are a reliable form of income?

Trump officials reverse guidance exempting farms, hotels from immigration raids ICE agents have been told to continue conducting enforcement operations at agricultural businesses despite concerns about effects on the food industry.

🚨Stephen Miller gets his way. Just a few days after Ag. Sec. Rollins convinced Trump to briefly back down, quotas and indiscriminate raids are back.

Farms, restaurants, and hotels are now subject to ICE raids again, with intense pressure on ICE to hit 3,000 arrests a day. Miller remains in charge.

We can only make our Union stronger by learning about our history, acknowledging our mistakes, and applying the lessons of our past to our present.

‘Extremely disturbing and unethical’: new rules allow VA doctors to refuse to treat Democrats, unmarried veterans Trump order allows VA staff to decline providing healthcare to patients based on political affiliation or marital status

Unmarried? A Democrat? You might be denied care.

New VA rules let doctors refuse treatment based on political views or marital status. They “seem to open the door to discrimination on the basis of anything that is not legally protected.”

Unethical. #BlueSky #MedSky #SciSky #NurseSky #PedSky #EMSky

I JUST sounded the alarm in the Oversight committee on the fact that this administration has threatened to arrest elected officials and they have. A judge, a mayor, a Representative, and now a US Senator in his OWN STATE during an open press conference. Governors will be next.

Today they have crossed a deep red line.

We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

These militarized actions by Miller and Trump could potentially result in an elite blunder: overreach in response to what is essentially a small protest against a mass deportation policy that isn't widely popular.

“Basically, what he’s trying to do is create precedent where he can nominate individuals in those positions who are more aligned with his view, and if they don’t rule in favor of his view, then they potentially could be fired,”

They blame pollution but cut the EPA and clean air and water regulations. They blame poor nutrition but cut SNAP and programs to bring local produce to schools. They blame increased screen time while destroying public infrastructure that connects people. All while they take millions off healthcare.
