Lifelong Democrat, Genealogy is history in action. My maternal grandmother was an anchor baby, my father's ancestors immigrated in the 1600s. They did not have permission from the people who were here. Trans rights are women's rights.

This is important because this is what the 2nd Amendment is actually about: the right to bear arms in defense *against* the Federal Govt. That's why the National Guard is under the control of Governors, not the president.

Tweet from Alex Tabarrok reads:
β€œSergio Garcia, celebrated Chef who came to the US before ICE even existed. Deported after 36 years.
The picture tells you a lot about the decline of the Republican party.”

This was never about deporting criminals. It’s about Stephen Miller’s campaign of ethnic cleansing.

Is there anyone else out there who thinks we should get together and file a class action lawsuit suit against Trump for mental anguish? I don’t know about any of you but I can’t remember any other time I’ve ever felt this much anguish and hopelessness about my country.

Exactly. None of the critics of the Democratic Party seem to have any suggestions as to what it should be doing. The average person believes the lies. They don't care about democracy. When we blame Dems or 'Congress', we might as well be voting Republican. We're the ones handing it to them.

The thing about the Epstein disgustingness that strikes me hardest is that hundreds of rich old men raped underage girls and the only person currently in jail for that vile behavior is a woman.

The Fragility of Childhood Before Vaccines This family treasure sits on a bookshelf in my piano room. I’ve written about it before. At first glance it seems an unusual keepsake. It would be easy to dismiss it as just β€œfra…

Our grandmothers saw vaccines as a godsend. My mother was one of the first to get the rubella vaccine. Whatever unknown effects the vaccine might have, she knew with certainty what would happen to unborn me. Excellent blog on life without vaccines:

My Grandma was an Anchor Baby It’s really astonishing that, in a country founded by immigrants, β€˜immigrant’ has somehow become a bad word. (1)

Many on this list were on the impeachment prosecution teams during the 1st Tr*mp term. Tr*mp isn't the 1st pres to take military action w/o Congress approval. It was a very weak case. They tabled debate bcz most Americans support Tr*mp on this one, and it can't go anywhere.

Thank you to the drag queens, the stone dykes and transgender people who fought back at Stonewall. I was born into a world in which you could be arrested and have your picture printed in the paper for the crime of dancing with someone of the same sex. You changed my world.

These are children in an iron lung before the polio vaccine was discovered. If this doesn't shake sense into anyone opposing vaccinations I can't imagine what would.

We know the stories of Harriet Tubman and Sojourner Truth. Millions of people, however, exist only in moldering wills and deeds. We can change that.

Metal roofs. No wood. Repeat. No wood. Wide clearance around your house. Please stop building log homes in the forest. I can't insure you. And it breaks my heart when my insureds lose their home.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.
