Sometimes it’s difficult to decide who is the dumbest senator with this clown, Tuberville and Blackburn in constant competition.

Cleaning crews in movie theaters showing MELANIA are so happy, after each showing they have nothing to do, they don't have to clean the theaters as there were maybe one or 2 watching it.

Here you are at Monday! On time & ready to go! You have your course charted & all you need to do is take that first step. Then the next step is even easier. Keep your eyes forward but, use your peripheral vision for others on their path as well. Let’s go! Be careful. Be safe.

Be you.
Take no shit.

Minnesota's False Spring Even with troop withdrawals, Minnesotans aren’t packing up snow shovels, nor ICE whistles.

"After the announcement, Le Monde in France declared “Two people dead, thousands arrested, two cities shaken, and Donald Trump defeated.” 

But for Minneapolis and the surrounding communities, it’s not quite a cause célèbre. Minnesota isn’t packing up snow shovels, nor ICE whistles."

Calling the requirement for a judicial warrant before entering a person’s home one of the Democrats’ “new restrictions on federal immigration agents” crosses the line into outright falsehood. It’s in the Bill of Rights! A rule as old as the republic.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.
