Sharing to help spread the word- if you want a quick way to voice your displeasure with your elected officials- download the app 5 Stars. It’ll connect you with your elected officials and list all the problematic bills and other shenanigans you may object to. It also provides a script if desired.

But he made it 11 days before blaming something on Obama. 1,450 days to go.

As an American living in the states, the last week has permanently damaged the U.S.
That’s the end of the statement.
It will take decades to recover if we ever get into a position to be able to do so. None of us who are horrified by this have any confusion on what is happening.

To be fair, if the vote counts are correct, the election wasn’t stolen. Yes, more people voted for someone else. But they didn’t all vote for the same candidate. Too many useless third party voters essentially gave the presidency to Trump. Be angry but don’t make up nonsense to justify it.

Let’s all take a moment to pray for Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde. In delivering her plea for mercy on vulnerable populations to 47, she painted a massive target on her back.

It is not free speech when Trump aligned oligarchs have their thumbs on the algorithms of all the social media apps.

I know 47 was going for shock and awe on his first day, but is anyone else just shaking their heads and chuckling? What a bunch of idiotic nonsense. And the outright public money laundering in “meme coin” right before taking office? How entertaining the next four years are going to be!

Rest in peace Cecile Richards, you were a beacon of inspiration and courage. Prayers and love to your family who should be so proud of your legacy.

She didn’t have to endure a single day of this presidency. What a gift, really.
Prayers and love to her family. She was a beacon of strength and inspiration. How proud of her legacy they must be.

I think I’m due for a LOTR marathon, personally. The Midis Touch will be streaming puppies and kittens on YouTube. It would be the bestest thing ever if that got higher ratings than anything else.

I’ve been angry about the election since November. Have no fear, that’s still brewing. I’m ALSO now angry about the loss of free speech via any venue under the false pretense of national security. Us humans can be complex, having multiple thoughts at the same time…

I love the people who claimed they couldn't afford eggs whining about the thousands of dollars they wasted on airfare and hotels to attend the cancelled outdoor inauguration.

Our only hope is that while their intent is insidious, we’ll be saved by their idiocy. And all this equal rights posturing is aggravating, it will amount to nothing. They had four years to fight but instead make a declaration on his way out in Michael Scott declaring bankruptcy style? Please.

Recently took a peek at Twitter and the disinformation is getting substantially more dangerous. Someone could get killed.

The tactics of constantly repeating outright lies, targeting specific people, repurposing years-old footage and presenting them as new is getting to another level. It’s scary.
