ICYMI — @gallego.senate.gov : "The only reason Adelita Grijalva is not being sworn in right now is because he wants to protect whatever is in those files. Arizona does not have a congresswoman right now, during flooding, because Speaker Johnson is covering for pedophiles."

Car's in the shop. Let's have a mocha and read some pages.

Life comes at you fast

A little video to share with you that celebrates 2 weeks of the T-shirt situation . Hope it makes you smile and brings a little happiness to everyone’s Monday 🧡😺 #adoptdontshop #acatforeveryhome #rescuecat #monday

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

What, exactly, are we celebrating tomorrow?

Our cutting off healthcare to the needy to enrich the greedy?

Our new concentration camps?

Our dying economy?

Our ditching due process?

Our corruption?

Our broken legislature?

Our corrupt SCOTUS?

Our ridiculous buffoon president? #FourthOfJuly

The squeaky tank rolled down the street.
No one clapped or cheered.
Was this a joke? Was this for real?
Was it sent there to be jeered?
Our country's torn.
Our rights at risk.
Due to decisions made.
A petty fool. A sick small man.
Put tyranny on parade.

F you Dan Bishop
But since you're an idiot, let me provide you with the definition of Insurrection:
noun;
a violent uprising against an authority or government.

Thoughts and prayers to those who were injured yesterday 🖕🏽

Mark Warner: "That cabinet meeting earlier this week where everyone went around and basically paid kudos to the great leader -- it was something that frankly I would've expected out of North Korea, not out of a cabinet meeting in America."

LGBTQ+ youth suicide hotline among proposed HHS budget cuts Mental health challenges are pervasive among LGBTQ+ youth.

I fought damn hard to create the 988 Hotline because help should not be hard to get – regardless of who you are or where you live.

This is wrong and cruel – and you can be sure I will fight this. www.axios.com/2025/04/23/l...

I read it…

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation.

I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!

I was so disgusted by the two clowns. Zelensky is an absolute hero for standing against Putin. 💙

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

He was half asleep through the sermon. People told him it was about mercy and compassion, and now he's mad about it.

Developing: Chuck Grassley has kicked off the Pam Bondi hearing.

Just like when he led the hearing to confirm Moses as AG for the Israelites.

Good morning.

AI will obliterate genre fiction in the next few years as corporate publishing will get into bed with AI and fall out of love with writers.

Agents and writers will become redundant.

If you want great new writing with a soul, always choose indies.
