Democrats may not be able to prevent Mullin's confirmation, but they can certainly turn his track record of offense and stupidity into two days of televised humiliation so spectacular that he is wounded in Trump's eyes from day 1. That is the job.

Damn, he is missing out! I think his hibernation will only be about 4 weeks- doesn’t he usually emerge around Opening Day?

No thunder snow here but there was some in the southern part of the state. But the wind and drifting is intense. My poor greyhounds had to wade in the snow that is knee high for me. When the wind stops we can clear them a space but right now we have to wade. 😒

Meanwhile, many libraries that used to offer passport services were recently told by the Federal government they can’t do that anymore. Probably a coincidence!

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

When a sitting representative refers to the Super Bowl halftime show as β€œpornography,” people should use that to reflect on how they and other representatives are simultaneously working to ban, censor, and restrict β€œpornography” and what that actually means

No-fault divorce has saved multitude of women's lives yet Republicans are actively trying to repeal by claiming it is hurting "innocent" men.

Imagine being trapped in a marriage with your ex, that's what they want

Texas HB 3401
Oklahoma SB 829
Louisiana Covenant Marriage
Nebraska LB 498

And more

And I think it says something, when you have a US Senator from MINNESOTA! Minnesota Nice, for god's sake, using the word "fuck", saying, "Leave us the fuck alone!" Its like hearing your Sunday School teacher swear. It GRABS your attention.

the face she makes as she walks away before giving him a chance to answer is the energy I wish every Democrat would give to Fox News. "got anything to say? no? didn't think so. please choke. bye."

Right. The point is not β€œit matters extra because it’s a citizen,” the point is β€œwe either hang together or we will all hang separately.”

I know many of you who follow me don't work in climate science, but this is the biggest story in climate right now. Breaking up NCAR makes us all less safe and is another act of self-harm that will take decades to recover from.

This. Also, NCAR doesn't just work on climate! They research weather, atmospheric chemistry and pollutioj, the sun and space weather. They developed the technology for lidar, a technology widely used in surveying, archaeology, forestry, seismology, laser guidance systems, and even self-driving cars.

Yes! I listen to audiobooks when I knit (sometimes I want to do both! But I can only listen to books I have already read and knit otherwise something suffers.)
