Child care is infrastructure. Believer that we can and MUST do better. The guns are the problem. Policy rules everything around me. My blood is partially sweet tea (but not too sweet!).
Needless, reckless, irresponsible, wrong.
Adjectives from two national security experts describing the war we stared with Iran.
I do not want your or my children going to war to line the Trump Administration and billionaire’s pockets.
The U.S. Senate must be clear: no war with Iran.
Illegal attacks. Continued embarrassing, unconstitutional, dangerous, and unacceptable behavior from the Trump administration.
They say they care about regime change there…it’s time for impeachment here.
Lindsey Graham is the kind of man I don’t want my sons to grow up to be like.
Help us elect Dr. Annie Andrews. @drannieandrews.com

How?
Run for House (if there’s no candidate).
Run for County Council.
Run for that town or municipal seat.
Support Annie Andrews.
Too many non-profits and people haven’t found their courage.
The more they cower and cripple with fear, the more “radical” my friends and I become.
Because we are determined to save our state and country from fascism. We want better for our children.
Do something small that scares you today.
Apparently, Diane Mitchell is mad because of Democracy. People should be allowed to vote in whatever primary they want to.
She still won.
She still sucks.
Stop rigging the game and complaining when you STILL won and you didn’t have a Dem challenger because of gerrymandering.
Using American power to line private pockets. We’ve seen this before.
America cannot “run” Venezuela & be dragged into another reckless foreign engagement that leads to endless war & suffering.
No matter what happens next, Congress must assert its role as the voice of the people.
Nicolás Maduro is a brutal dictator. No one should defend him.
But what Trump & his cronies like Lindsey Graham are pushing has nothing to do with democracy or helping the Venezuelan people. They’re chomping at the bit to seize Venezuelan oil & dish out the profits to their billionaire buddies. ➡️
Once again, the hypocrisy from Trumpers is in full view.
Is it “stay out of foreign wars,” “start foreign wars,” or just “whatever our ignominious leader is for, I will figure out a way through my disbelief to justify it.”
Totally humane, Christian policy from the “family values” and “protect children from pedophiles, vaccinations, and food dyes” crowd.
SC General Assembly (super majority R): we are going to require birth even if it kills you!
MAGA: We are going to make policy to promote higher birth rates (even if they make no sense).
Also both of them: We will cut child care and SNAP, so that your children die AFTER they are born due to hunger!
I love that Tina is living out her lifelong dream to become an elected official!! Go, Tina Belge, go!!
One of our Greenville City Council at-large candidates actually does things, and the other just watches and talks about doing things. Do you know which is which?
It’s still the guns.
Great news.
So the thoughts and prayers/guns for everyone crowd now thinks sending troops to schools is a good idea.
What’s next? Troops everywhere?
Sure, spend billions and make us all live under constant government occupation when you could just pass gun legislation that makes sense.
Ban assault weapons.
To all the gun owners who are “feeling attacked” when people want gun sense legislation:
Why are you feeling attacked? I’m a gun owner too, but I’m not feeling threatened by people wanting gun legislation to protect our children (and everyone).
But also no, you don’t need an assault weapon.
I love this story so much. Thank you, Rachel! @msrachelforlittles.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/parenting/in...
Modern Monopoly card: Venmo error.
Greenville County Probate Judge Chad Groover thinks that everyone can afford an attorney to provide estate planning and will services. And he thinks if you can’t afford that, you basically aren’t adulting.
Attorneys for these services can range between $500-$5000 and more.
My mom always put rice, pasta, and flour in the freezer.
Want to know why?
Weevils.
Check your grains for them when you purchase so that you don’t spend your entire day and night ridding yourselves of this nightmare.
🤢🤢🤢
How crazy would it be if Trump didn’t even sign the bill now?
Got a letter from my baby at camp. It made me cry—feels so good to hear from my little guy!! 💕💕💕
