A hero in Minnesota. Thank you @john-abernathy.bsky.social for inspiring us all to have courage in this battle for the soul of America.

A bright color arm band would probably just make the media even more of a target for the fascists

BS. There's an obvious difference between what America has become under Trump vs what America would have been under Kamala.

Thank you for this article. I'm astounded that it's just now front page in the AZ Republic nearly a month later! Nearly 750,000 AZ seniors on traditional Medicare (like me) should be outraged that we will now be subjected to an ai algorithm dictating the pre-authorization process for our healthcare.

AI will have a say in approving or denying some AZ Medicare claims Arizonans enrolled in original Medicare will be test subjects for a controversial new program that makes use of AI to approve and deny claims.

A few pics from a recent visit to the Newport OR area so that I can give a shout out to #OregonCoastAcquarium for their wonderful marine biology displays and wildlife education programs. Also, fuck the ICE fascists who want put a detention facility in this magnificent tourist destination.

Sadly, it appears that many of those Americans with guns have been duped into supporting the Americans with all the money

I appreciate your insights; sounds like you used to be in the auto industry. I was excited when Ford came out with the F150 Lightning (now discontinued) as I considered that for a future truck camper project. Currently we have an F150 5.0 with a truck camper and love the rooftop solar.

Grateful on this Thanksgiving Day that we have real American heroes like Senator Mark Kelly to defend our democracy against incompetent drunkards and dotards like Whiskey Pete and Dementia Don

The Republican old guard has already been toppled by the MAGAts. The billionaire class has been trying for years to prevent the Democrat old guard from being toppled by Bernie, AOC, Mamdani, and other progressives.
