@nicollewallace.bsky.social Now, I’ve despised Karoline Leavitt since she ran for Congress here in NH, but isn’t it kind of petty and childish to constantly mispronounce her name. It’s pretty obviously intentional, and far beneath you.

All except a candy wrapper (wouldn’t take a chance that it is sticky). Hate to admit that I have dog-eared pages in my ignorant youth - I would never now.

RFK Jr. sent Congress 'medical disinformation' to defend COVID vaccine schedule change A document circulated to members of Congress misinterprets studies and cites debunked research, scientists say. It could influence congressional perceptions of vaccine safety.

"The HHS document says that another paper it cites found 'an increase in placental blood clotting in pregnant mothers who took the vaccine.'

But the paper doesn't contain any reference to placental blood clots or to pregnant women."

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

This video is making the rounds again for a reason.

A great example of how you make your voices heardβ€”without saying a word. Power in numbers and it sends a clear message. This is what democracy looks like: standing up to fascism, tyranny, and racism.

This is the way!

That $5,000 for having a baby will not go far in Trump's America.

Enough with the, what would you say if Biden or Obama did this because we all know that no other president in history would ever do this.

If a typical picture is worth a thousand words, this reaction by the leader of Italy to sitting next to an obvious madman is worth several trillion

TY!
Now let's get on the phones to EVERYONE in Congress - especially the GOP and get this fixed NOW! Any person in Congress not speaking or over people not given due process and arrested without just cause needs to be up on charges themselves. PERIOD.

So, Trump threatens car companies not to raise prices in response to his tariffs. How long til the massive bailout to offset their losses? Will anyone notice?

Musk cuts the team finding Ukrainian children stolen by Russia Trump’s federal cost-cutting - led by Elon Musk's Doge – has now hit the unit helping rescue Ukrainian children taken by Russia

Russia has kidnapped tens of thousands of Ukrainian children. Putin was indicted for this crime. Yale has a unit searching for them. Musk eliminated the funding.

On 6 June 1944, while Americans were fighting at Omaha Beach, Canadians were fighting at Juno Beach. Our brothers, who fought and died by our side – who helped us defeat Fascism, are not our enemy. They are our true friends. Canadians are our brothers and sisters and I stand with them 100%.
