Erroneously thinking you've taken intelligence tests, when the tests were administered because doctors are (repeatedly) concerned you have dementia and may pose a danger to yourself and others, is probably yet another sign that you actually do have dementia.

Let’s put an end to Fox News in waiting rooms.

I got this from Amazon and use it everywhere they show Fox News. Also great if you have hard of hearing neighbors who watch it 24/7

White House Moves Forward on Plans for a Department of War Trump’s goal of renaming the Defense Department might require congressional action, but his administration is looking at other ways to rebrand the military.

Trump’s plan to rename the Department of Defense as the Department of War shows (once again) that his self-characterization as the β€œpro-peace” candidate was complete bullshit.

When this time is over (& it will be) & somebody asks me to describe its nature & spirit, I shall play this clip. It embodies the whole cruelty, nastiness, sneer, indifference, cockiness, glee, inhumanity, & evil. It proves they knew what they did was illegal, but they did it happily, voluntarily.

How Canada's buck-toothed national emblem could help fight wildfires | CBC News New research out of the western U.S. suggests dams and ponds built by beavers can slow floods, store water and even create green firebreaks in wildfire-prone landscapes.

'The findings add weight to a growing body of evidence that beavers may be acting as ecosystem engineers, reshaping waterways in ways that benefit not just their own survival, but that of entire landscapes.'

β€œILLEGALS” MY ASS!

Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store.

He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.

Wait! I thought Trump was supposed to be β€œending homelessness.”

HUD just announced a nationwide audit of Section 8 β€œcitizen status.”

Mixed-status families could lose rental assistance, even when kids are U.S. citizens. Families including children could be thrown into eviction & face homelessness.

I Am Suing the Department of Justice for the Epstein Files Training Videos On July 20th, I was the first to report the existence of training videos instructing FBI personnel how to flag mentions of Trump and others in the Epstein files. Today, I'm suing for those videos.

Ending birthright citizenship means that ANYONE’S citizenship can be challenged. The court is giving a madman the keys to absolute dictatorial control.

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.
