The Huffington Post reports: Senate Republicans handed Trump a win on Tuesday with confirmation of one his first judicial nominees, Joshua Divine.

Senate Confirms Judge Who Compares LGBTQ Rights To Pedophilia And Declares Christianity β€œMust Be Imposed”

Scary... I'd rather our country move *away* from these kind of theocratic, sanctimonious & arrogant self-righteous beliefs...not appoint them to lifetime judicial positions.

Enjoy the holiday weekend, spend time with friends & family, and try to not blow off any fingers...you might not have a hospital to go to.

We are entering a dangerous time, where our own government is seemingly gearing up for a war on the people...and as in 1776, it will be up to us to stand up for our Freedom & Independence. The torch is passed to us.

With tax policies that give more to those who already have plenty while taking away from those who have nothing, ballooning our deficit even further, and giving a huge budget increase to ICE

Benjamin Franklin made an appearance during yesterday's We The People Rally at the Bethlehem Rose Gardens. Was a good day, despite the weather, to bring some levity to the daily doom & gloom from D.C. and hear from leaders in our community who are inspired to help others.

Democracy dies when the people become complacent & apathetic. It's time for those of us who care about people over profits, who respect & celebrate diversity, and who lead with kindness & empathy to RISE UP.

I want you to know you are not alone and I am here to represent YOU. There are more of us then them...but we have to get involved & motivate others to do so as well.

the parallels between our local & national politics, are obvious. One side will say & do anything to enrich themselves at the expense of others.

Or right here in Lower Saucon with the actions of those Township council members who glorify this authoritarian regime, using similar tactics to demean others, deflect accountability, distort reality, defund libraries & destroy natural spaces...

the military used like political props & deployed domestically against civilians, while masked vigilantes run amok in our communities using excessive force to meet their deportation "quotas" ... it's deplorable.

If you are like me, you are probably angry, upset & disgusted with the Trump Administration, the daily list of lies & abuses, the narcissism & greed & selfishness,

Last month during the Primary, a voter walked past me at the door and asked "Which one of you candidates is the most anti-Trump?" I said, "That would be me". She replied "Then I'm voting for you."

"The techbro fascists may hate the liberals they live next door to, but at the end of the day, they're still part of the urban, atheistic, educated class that the MAGA movement demonizes. That difference was not going to be papered over forever."

It was easy to predict these two narcissistic personalities would clash sooner than later, and as part of the "urban, atheistic, educated class" I am all for it & ready with my popcorn.🍿

What's a more logical solution...

Allow fully medically transitioned people to compete in their chosen gender as equals?

Create a separate transgender competition?

Remove sex/gender divisions altogether and create equal competition based on height/weight?
