Justโ€ฆ oh wow.

We all knew it, but, I believe this is the little girl known as Katie Johnson. She withdrew her court case after death threats. To hear it on the News is surreal. We all need to call our GOP Reps and senators and say IMPEACH - REMOVE and CONVICT!

You absolutely have the constitutional right to record ICE, Border Patrol, or any law enforcement officer in public, and with everything happening in Charlotte right now, people need to understand that clearly.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Marjorie Taylor Green has been in Congress since 2020 and is resigning as of Jan 5,
2026. And I just want to point out one thing.

She spent 5 years in Congress attacking the left-and never feared for her life or safety to any level that would make her resign.

She spent 5 weeks mildly critiquing the
MAGA right and the backlash was so severe she is resigning.

5 years of antagonizing the left resulted in no action. 5 weeks of criticizing the right resulted in resignation.
That says it all.

This is not a solution. Individual consumers do not have any bargaining power for health insurance. Not to mention, the "windfall" from tariffs was paid by us in the first place.

Very pretty, but invasive. I struggle every year to pull it up, because blue flowers are my favorite. (It also seems particularly susceptible to what I think is a flea beetle, its leaves get riddled with holes.)

Donald Trump giving Vladimir everything he wants in the "peace" plan with Ukraine seems an odd way to dispel rumors that Putin is holding that Donald/Bubba pic over Trump's, ur, head.
