I’m afraid younger people weren’t there under the old rules. It was brutal.

Justice Sonia Sotomayor issued a chilling warning in her dissent:

β€œWe should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent.”

If you are a federal worker, there are several credit unions and other financial institutions that are offering zero interest loans during the government shutdown.

Please go to my website for more information: www.sanders.senate.gov/resources-fo...

Make sure you have the cat’s current vaccination certificate/DVM records in your go bag. You’ll need it to cross a border. Live long and prosper…

Let’s get a ring so valuable that you can’t wear it. Brilliant.

No.

By all means, tell her about the family history. Then tell her to direct any medical or nutrition questions to her doctor. Period. Then never bring it up again unless she specifically asks you for an opinion.

Trust me. My mother was a β€œreminder” because she was β€œconcerned for my health.” 😑

The last government shut down lasted about a month and only ended because air traffic controllers were calling in sick excessively and the system slowed down. I suspect there are other systems across the country vulnerable to sudden changes… the ol’ unintended consequences always show up.

Keep the faith, Mia. Patriotic American artists and scholars can rebuild. They will. Then they’ll write a Broadway smash hit show about it.

Millions of veterans got this email from the official VA account with a blatant political smear and lie about the government shutdown yesterday. This is a massive violation of the law and federal regulations using our government resources for political actions.

Whoa! Employees at the SBA received a template for their suggested β€œout of office” email. They were advised to blame the Democrats.

🚨 A clear violation of the Hatch Act

Yup. It’s like that with guns. When there hasn’t been a shooting lately. The anxiety creeps in.

It was on YouTube, but the film is called β€œThe Reincarnation of Peter Proud.” Very good and very creepy.

How to BE BRAVE Under Fascism, Right Now
YouTube video by The Ripple Effect Institute How to BE BRAVE Under Fascism, Right Now

Today, I’m speaking directly to those of you who feel the grip of fear as our voices and freedoms are under attack. That fear doesn’t mean you’re weak, it means you’re awake.

Their strategies of silencing are designed to make us police ourselves so they don't have to--

That first sentence of yours rang sort of hollow. I might be influenced by anxiety, admittedly, and I pray you’re right.

If I make it through this era, it’s going to be because of some amazing people: Heather Cox Richardson, Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin, Hawk” from TikTok, β€œOhthatsrich” from TikTok, my senators, Amy Klobuchar and Tina Smith, and my governor Tim Walz. Muchas Gracias!
