Chuck Schumer was damned if he did and damned if he didn't. Eventually the wheel of karma will turn again in the favor of sensible people, but God, am I tired of waiting.

2. Following up your action with a huge wave of accurate information about what's really happened would be your next right thing to do. Yes, that information will be denied by many and you will be hit with MAGAmenschen lies. So what?

If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same

When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state

3. Too many people who believe in government of, by, and for the people are letting the radical right set the rules.

I found a ‘dead’ person collecting Social Security in Seattle “Dead” Ned Johnson turns out to be very much alive. It took him weeks to convince the system he was breathing and to start clawing his benefits back.

The richest man in the world took over $5K out of this guy's bank account, claiming he was dead. The richest man in the world said he was saving money.

He was not dead.

Can he make it retroactive to January 5 2021?

That's a great question. I don't know any. Every trans person I know identifies as male. The only one I know OF is Caitlyn Jenner. If she were to enter a decathlon now, I'm pretty sure she'd come in last. It seems like a non-issue. Could every gendered sport host an additional open-to-all event?

So about this felon in chief's fantasy about making Canada a state.... It's a parliamentary Republic federating ten provinces. Shouldn't it be ten states? And if you go there, would those states still be able to legislate, tax and support each other to keep their healthcare and campaign finance law?

No, we expect society to grow up to recognize all of us are worthy, and should be welcomed, tolerating, if not embracing, all who accept the premise that tolerating people who are different than us is a moral imperative.

I enjoyed reading these perspectives. Conservative society's current problems with trans people are conservative society's problems. Do we expect other minorities to solve problems they experience, like racism?

Can you tell us how we download fentanyl? Do I need a new printer?

Your argument that it's coming through the Internet could easily be applied to the telephone or the USPS. It's ridiculous.

So far, the US president is only listing executive orders; not a single piece of legislation. None of it will hold

This is no way to treat an ally. The US is now more allied with Russia than Ukraine.

I don't watch MSNBC, but I watch most everything @joyannreid.bsky.social posts on social. I hope she get whatever she needs to keep posting independent of any broadcast network.

The John Birch society hated FDR when he was president and have not stopped organizing against his policies since then. Through the Koch's, that philosophical lineage and money has been behind the Republican gains nationwide for decades. In my family we revere the programs FDR instituted.

"[A] democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is Fascism—ownership of Government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power." - FDR (1938)

Last I heard all human embryos are female at conception, so with a single stroke of his pen, the president has outlawed all males. Males no longer exist in the USA.

(d) “Female” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell.

(e) “Male” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell.

Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat is a great film. Phenomenal soundtrack and poetic visual storytelling about the struggle for African independence in the early 1960s.

How did jazz in the US affect, and how was it affected by, the struggle of Africans to throw off the colonizers? Watch to find out.

Hi Woggle ;-)

Don't forest management practices require a forest to practice on?

This is exactly what is missing from assessing the cost of so many great ideas. What we're currently spending to ignore the problem never gets into the conversation.

Another solid choice: your local library. My library has subscriptions to hundreds of newspapers and magazines which I can read online.

It's a numbers game, no? The platform doesn't publish squat; all they can do is censor/suppress. It's we, the users, who bring new data into the system
