Writing, reading, cooking, and a morning walk. For decades I have struggled with the imperative to be informed and to protect my wellbeing. Still I continue to read the news, though it’s much more difficult now. Progressives Dem. NOT RESPONDING TO DMs.

Trump said that he spoke to the president of Puerto Rico, which means he spoke to someone who does not exist on a US territory whose people are US citizens. I guess Trump has been talking to himself again.

This is how far gone the Republican Party is. Trump addressed 800 military generals and admirers about his stationery and how he, Biden, and Obama walked down stairs. All Republicans should be voted against.

Abughazaleh: I think Kristi Noem should be tried at The Hague. And if the response from ICE to people exercising their first amendment right is to drive vehicles through them, they should not be an agency in the US.

We Americans now live in a country where Democratic mayors around the country are strategizing about how to protect their citizens from the president of the United States.

Republicans are a no-show to keep the federal government open. Democrats are here, ready to work.

#Republicans and their media allies are desperately trying to frame the shutdown as the fault of #Democrats

Meanwhile, Republicans can’t even be bothered to show up for work.

Folks β€” this is not a normal government shutdown.

Let me explain the stakes and how we got here.

I’m obviously not an expert in this area, but ordering several hundred senior US military officers from around the world to gather in one place and then announcing the location seems a bit daft. But not to worry. I’m sure Hegseth knows what he’s doing. After all, he was a presenter on Fox News.

Last week I defied half the population, have the states, and the entire Trump administration by getting a flu and a Covid vax, which is incredibly sad thing to say.

Election alert!

Elections are the most important thing...it's the reason most of us are online.

President Johnson, in a November 9, 1968 letter to the Smothers Brothers:

β€œIt is part of the price of leadership of this great and free nation to be the target of clever satirists . . . May we never grow so somber or self-important that we fail to appreciate the humor in our lives.”

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE:
He cannot designate an idea as a terrorist group.

There is no org called ANTIFA. There is no leadership or funding path or no membership. Also there is no terrorism law in America. Ask Luigi.

He wants to call anyone a terrorist. That’s Fascism.
