Pass it on

To be honest, I had a very hard time deciding which of the Trump admin atrocities to post this morning. But the life threatening attack on a South Carolina judge after she ruled against trump’s policies and he tweeted about her stands out.

Happy 25th wedding anniversary Jim! I love that we are spending our anniversary doing what we love best- traveling to amazing places. Love you!

Who wore it better?

We are in Banff. Last night, we did a late night hike in a dark sky area. My goal was to see the Milky Way with my own eyes like I did every night when I grew up. This pic was taken with an iPhone 14 on a tripod from the top of a rock pile at Lake Moraine, Banff NP.

RIP to a great activist who also happened to be the most handsome guy I’ve ever seen.

So after days of Republicans blaming and vilifying Democrats and trans people for Kirk’s murder despite having no clue who the person was, we find out it’s a white guy from a Republican family in Utah who loved guns.

Dems flipped a congressional seat in Virginia yesterday by a huge margin! This is what we all need to work to make happen in the mid-terms. Let’s do this!

A real post from Trump in truth social this morning. Yep. A sitting President threatening war on the citizens of America’s 3rd largest city.

Mail in voting skews heavily Dem. In my state, it’s about 70/30. Trump assumes, perhaps to his detriment, that those voters would not go to the polls if they couldn’t mail in ballots. I think that’s false.

This tracks as true

More lies about mail in voting. We are NOT the only country that allows it. It has NOT ever been proven to be fraudulent. Trump knows the mid terms will flip Congress and he is terrified.

Don’t know who created this but it’s absolutely true.

Mood

A sitting US President rolled out the literal red carpet to a man currently under indictment by the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity. This is truly beyond the pale.

Listening to the future Speaker of the House at ILDCCA’s brunch on Dem Day in Springfield. Inspiring!!! Let’s do this! #TakeBackTheHouse

The thing about Trump deploying troops in D.C. is what’s in the Epstein files?

Proud of the stand that the Texas Democrats are making by breaking quorum and staying here in Illinois? Here is your chance to meet them! If you can, please join Democratic candidate for Congress Yasmeen Bankole on Monday, Aug. 11th, between 4 and 6 pm as she hosts a joint fundraiser.

It’s been quite a week, amirite? Tariffs,terrible job numbers, red states gerrymandering House majorities, Trump adding a gilded ballroom to the White House, the likely pardon of convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, etc. Practice some self care today - then get back to resisting tomorrow!

Have a wonderful Sunday and remember….

Wait, Trump lied?

Of course I’ve been madly crocheting baby blankets for my new granddaughter. This one is my fav.

From the official White House Twitter account. They are saying the quiet part out loud. We have a President who is openly celebrating and pursuing retribution against his political enemies while the GOP majority in Congress sits by and lets it happen. We HAVE to take back the House and the Senate!

The depositions on this lawsuit are gonna be LIT!

Let’s not forget why this matters so much!

Donald Trump is a pedophile. He confirms with every tweet.

The news this week has been chaotic and infuriating. Wishing you a moment of zen this morning.
