The “Marco Rubio, we salute you” piece that ended the CBS Evening “News” was jaw-dropping. I can’t stop thinking about it. Tony Dokoupil, are you okay? You said you wanted to earn our trust, but ummmm…

Still, she should worry about her own marriage track record, and stay out of other people‘s business.

I read the book when it first came out and remember thinking how over-the-top it was, thinking, that could never happen. Never say never.

My formerly non-political daughter who had no interest in watching the show before has now asked if I will watch it with her. It is super scary for me this time around because in 2017 it was on the brink of happening and in 2025 it actually is. But glad that my daughter‘s eyes are now open to it.

Eggs are groceries. A word that’s an old- fashioned word. Groceries. You don’t heat that word much. Groceries. And Eggs.

I was with him until he said he thought it would get better under Trump. Another person who doesn’t care until it happens to him.

I’ve never been more angry & disgusted to write checks to IRS & Missouri Dept of Revenue. Forced to fund two governments actively making life worse for so many while enriching the few.

Trump is talking about shuttering publications and networks he disagrees with. He's talking about deporting and imprisoning Americans who dissent. This is unprecedented and undemocratic.

Wake up America.

According to Stephen Miller, the Supreme Court ruled IN TRUMP’S FAVOR and we’re all continuing to spread misinformation.

I saw him about 15 years ago, he was fantastic! I was not a fan but went bc a friend had just seen him in another city & raved about it. I giggled thru the entire thing, so taken with his energy, charisma and the crowd!

Some of the largest rallies were in the reddest of places. Salt Lake City was enormous. There were at least 3 in St. Louis area, incl a very red suburb. All 50 states. Many older, white who probably never protested before. Start of unity/movement?

“Fertilization President” Trump Just Gutted Fertility Research An entire research team at the CDC has been dismissed, thanks to Donald Trump’s cuts.

Despite dubbing himself the “Father of IVF,” Donald Trump actually WILL NOT be funding federal infertility research.

Trump has fired an entire infertility research team at the CDC.

Librarians Are Mad As Hell At The Trump Administration. They Think You Should Be, Too. "The public needs to wake up before our libraries are gone," one "livid" librarian said.

Wrote about the Trump administration’s attacks on federal funding for libraries

“Make no mistake about it, the elimination of funding for libraries is a political assault on First Amendment rights, access to information, and the freedom to read,” one librarian said www.huffpost.com/entry/librar...

SAPA was already ruled unconstitutional the last time they passed it. It makes it illegal for police to comply with federal gun laws and fines them $50K if they do.

Pro-life/pro-cop?

I always appreciated how you would go to toe-to-toe with any Talk Show host or constituent, even one’s you knew were openly hostile to you. Today, most Missouri politicians only talk to friendlies. If that.

I got a little emotional watching her speech! I didn’t know until Emilia Perez that she could sing, dance and speak Spanish. I was like, damn Zoe, I already thought you were fabulous!

The Great Resegregation The Trump administration’s attacks on DEI are aimed at reversing the civil-rights movement.

“That is why Trumpists are so focused on “ending DEI” in the federal workforce. They see anti-discrimination and inclusion as a ladder of upward mobility for people they do not believe should have one.”

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.
