My eldest daughter Claudia once asked me why there isn’t a provision that says that convicted felons can’t be president and this was *exactly* my answer

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Hello out there!

I am originally from upstate New York, but now I live in southern Illinois in the United States. Tornadoes scare the crap out of me. Always have, always will. Stay safe!

You,as well!

I live in Southern Illinois. When I looked at the Weather App at 3:30 this afternoon, I had a panic attack and left work. (I don’t get panic attacks) 😬

These men behind bars are not in prison after being charged with crimes. They are "enemy combatants" being detained in a concentration camp.

As such, Kristi Noem's crass photo-op using them as props violates the Geneva Convention's prohibition of ‘exposure to public curiosity’ of those captured.

My Schipperke, Opal

The Faces of Trump’s Anti-Immigrant Crusade The government deported a 10-year-old American citizen with brain cancer.

Even the xenophobic "we want the right kind of immigrants" stuff is quaint now. Now we're doing things like detaining Germans and Canadians over minor visa issues.

WTF?!? Elon Musk reposted this on X before quietly deleting it:

“Stalin, Mao, and Hitler didn’t murder millions of people. Their public sector employees did.”

A tweet from The Onion, a satirical news outlet, featuring a headline that reads: "Trump Says Recession Unfortunate But Necessary Step To Get To Depression." The image shows Donald Trump speaking in the Oval Office.

tRump has nothing to lose. We are going down, this time. Might as well look fashionable in the process.

His “Roads to Moscow” song is my favorite.

American from Upstate NY👋. Hot tea is my main source of hydration- I alternate caffeinated with an herbal. Tea that has gone cold is only fit for a microwave!

That is exactly true.

America Chose the Monster We all make mistakes.

America was given a choice between a lawless, amoral monster and a qualified, intelligent, joyful woman of color—and it chose the monster. We need to reckon with the reality of what that says about so many of us here.

I had a similar reply to a republican Facebook “friend”. I told him it’s going to be like a redneck version of “Big Yellow Taxi”.You don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone. (he’s a redneck and was talking about how this administration was doing things right, in his opinion.)😡

That’s awesome! You look fantastic!

Maybe not as many people on here yet?

In case you ever wonder why Donald had to pay someone to take the SAT for him . . .

Hundreds of NOAA employees are being fired by Trump and DOGE.

The National Weather Service, which is part of NOAA, provides life saving weather forecasting in the US.

A study found that for every $1 invested in NWS, it produces $73 in value to Americans.

Again, this isn't about efficiency.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.
