So my husband’s grandmother was born in Canada and was a Canadian citizen, so he would qualify as would my children (all are American citizens). Any information on American spouses of these potential new Canadian citizens?

So does this mean we’re back to considering Italians not white? Not approving of that obviously, but does bring up visions of the Italian Americans I know that are pro Trump

Their incompetence may be what saves us. But they’re going to kill a few people in the process

I’d love to ask the Catholic Kavanaugh about this Kavanaugh stop. Wonder what sewage would come out of JD’s mouth if asked about it.

But the important follow up question is does it matter that he’s unethical in office? Sure it mattered for Clinton. But I feel like there’s some mental contortions going on so it doesn’t matter here.

We spent 8 1/2 hours on hold trying to get my brother in laws birth certificate from NY to get him a realID. They hung up on us. We only got it because a relative was worked for the state and got us the Govenor’s hotline. That doesn’t scale. And this was a blue state

My aunt, a nun on a leave of absence from her order to take care of her mother in the Bay Area, worked with dying AIDS patients. It was a distraction & outlet from taking care of her mother (which says something about my grandmother). I agree on the majority of religious leadership. But not all.

Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio)
YouTube video by Bruce Springsteen Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio)

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Stay free

OMG I used x400 addressing before email was as interoperable as it is today (yes, I’m old). You really really really want standards that make it easy.

The only time NATO evoked article 5 was for us. After 9/11. They came to our aid when we needed it. And this is the thanks?

Pray you once more,
Is not your father grown incapable
Of reasonable affairs? Is he not stupid
With age and alt’ring rheums? Can he speak? Hear?
Know man from man? Dispute his own estate?
Lies he not bed-rid? And again does nothing
But what he did being childish?

Hell of a Kavanaugh stop. Is he seeing this? I can’t speak to his views on the morality of this. But, you’d think his ego wouldn’t want his name associated with it for all of eternity.

Hey folks Calvary Food Shelf has been helping out people in Minneapolis for 30 years, and now they’re ramping up to meet the crisis, including doing home deliveries so people don’t have to risk going out.

They’re just over halfway to their current goalβ€”let’s get them all the way, shall we?

Serious question. Why aren’t liberal democrats lining up to impeach RFK jr? I want to understand the reasons so I’m prepared when I call my congressman (a liberal democrat).

In the world I came from, evidently more sexist, it was β€œ the necktie rule”. Whose necktie do I grab if things go wrong?

I had season subscriptions to both the symphony and dance series at the Kennedy Center. I’ve supported them for decades. I took that money and participation to two different theaters in the area. Still supporting the arts; just not supporting the illegal narcissistic administration.

A picture of a man’s back that is holding an American flag

I usually bring an American flag, to your and other protests. I got it from a NOAA scientist giving them out at an early rally. I’ll be damned if I’m going to let this administration own patriotism. They are anything but patriotic and don’t respect the flag.

For those non-lawyers in the crowd, this sounds the opposite of what he said overruling Breyer in CA. How might these footnotes play into that case?

Remember Trump is stuck in another era; like when Time Man of the Year (yes, back then it was β€œman”) was a big deal. I suspect he thinks similarly of 60 Minutes. And Trump, not us, is her audience.

My daughter was working in a state Senator’s office in college. Was on the T with an office mate & said she was thinking of law school. Another passenger said I have to butt in, I’m a BU law professor, don’t do that. Another passenger said I’m the governor’s bagman, don’t do that. She’s a wine maker

Quite the Kavanaugh stop. I want Brent to get pepper sprayed, be in handcuffs, get stuck in the hole, not be able to use his constitutional rights to call a lawyer. Then ask him how it feels.
