Ask me about carnivorous plants, native plants, water plants, or marketing strategy… in that order. Come for the plants, stay for the political and civic rants.

We tend to forget DJT owned and promoted the Miss Teen USA Pageant for 20 years.
Teens. Sexualized. Exploited.
How could we POSSIBLY think he was deeply involved in a sex trafficking scandal??!!

So, the 20 year owner/promoter of the Miss Teen USA Pageant may be deeply involved in a sex trafficking scandal?
No way!!

We are consistently surprised by how much further they can drop. Truly, the Pit of Despair.

It was a hostage situation and our Heroes chose to put the gun down to save the hostage whom the terrorist had NO COMPUNCTION about killing.
We need to stop blaming the 8 Dems for surrendering. The GOP gives zero shits who was gonna get hurt.
We need to live to fight another day.

The only solution is to cut out the profit motive of the insurance carrier. It works EVERYWHERE else in the world.

Or... Just a universal healthcare insurance option that is NOT for profit.

Really glad the Trump administration sued to allow SNAP to get funded.
Oh wait...

If mega-employers like McDonalds and Walmart paid a living wage, SNAP would be unnecessary for a huge portion of the proletariat.

AOC: There was a day before his presidency, and there will be a day after — and it belongs to us.

The cost of living would be a non-issue if the wage gap had kept pace. It has not.
We the people earn less so the ultra-wealthy can make and keep more.

On October 18th, millions of brave Americans will stand up and peacefully protest against the authoritarian disease metastasizing under Donald Trump.

I think it is just simple. They do not give a shit what congress thinks, and they seem to be right. There is simply nothing anyone can or will do.
They have no respect and, frankly, there doesn't seem to be any consequences.

The U.S. Offering a 50% signing bonus to those who join the U.S.' secret police is the most U.S. thing the U.S. could do.
