Sad 😢

If your day has been hard, if you’re feeling anxious or angry or lost, allow yourself to pause for a moment and come back to your breathing. The present moment is all we truly have. When we become so tied up in our thoughts, we miss our appointment with life. Rest well, my friends. 😊

#calm #peace

Can’t you vote against a bill to have it adjusted to not give so much power to Trump. There is a third way. Send the bill back to have it revised!!!

Amen

Amen!

So sad

So sad 😞

Supreme Court rules Trump administration must unfreeze foreign aid payments A divided Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration must pay out nearly $2 billion in foreign assistance funds to nonprofit aid groups.

I called my representative, David Taylor and told him to vote NO!

Opinion | The Disrupter in Chief Can’t End a War Like This The Trump team’s vacillations may not just cost Ukraine its independence; it could set the stage for a cataclysm.

"Like a schoolyard bully who’s afraid of his peers, Trump is tough on Canada but weak on Russia. And that weakness may not just cost Ukraine its independence; it could set the stage for a cataclysm." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/16/o...

If Trump and the GOP extend their 2017 tax cuts, the top 1% will make out like bandits — taking home an extra $165 per day.

But the bottom 60% will get shafted — getting only an extra $1.10 per day in exchange for massive cuts to Medicaid and SNAP.

It's reverse Robin Hood.

"Some believe it is only great power that can hold evil in check, but that is not what I have found. It is the small everyday deeds of ordinary folk that keep the darkness at bay. Small acts of kindness and love.' -J.R.R. Tolkien The Hobbit, pub. 1937

House Republicans released a draft budget that aims to cut $2 trillion in spending.

The programs impacted could include Medicaid, SNAP, and education programs.

Why the cuts? To finance another round of tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations.

It's reverse Robin Hood.

Great idea!

CARTOON OF THE DAY

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

Despite assurances, USDA freezes farmer funding for some programs, contracts The news comes as a surprise to a community that voted overwhelmingly for Donald Trump in the past three presidential elections

Our farmers need stability, not more uncertainty. The Trump Administration’s funding freeze is stalling critical conservation programs, water infrastructure, and crop support. This hurts rural Americans and threatens livelihoods.

The top health care companies in America spent 95% of their profits to make their CEOs & stockholders obscenely rich.

How many Americans would be alive today if those companies spent $2.6 trillion on disease prevention and primary care, instead of stock buybacks and dividends?

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.

Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.

Funny how that works, huh?

ALABAMA REPUBLICAN Rep. Gary Palmer says Trump can’t eliminate the Department of Ed without Congress, and has to work with Congress constitutionally in general

Imagine literally any Tennessee Republican Senator or congressman saying this. No chance!🫤

Alarm as JD Vance says federal judges ‘aren’t allowed’ to control president Experts argued expansive view of executive power could cause constitutional crisis

Banning noncompetes. Changing OT pay rules to include more workers. Capping credit card fees. Erasing student loan debt.

All Biden Admin executive actions to help working people that were blocked by Trump-appointed judges.

And Republicans didn't have a problem with any of it.

Lies.

Someone shared: Neo-Nazis chased out of Greater Cincinnati, local residents set swastika flag ablaze

Neo-Nazis appeared in Lincoln Heights (metro Cincinnati) Ohio and got ran out of dodge… but not before locals stole and burned their swastika flag in the street.

Elon Musk is a terrible president!
