It's the weirdest feeling! Like, is this my body? Lol. I had to use a walker at first, but I damn well moved. Bone broth is your new bff, along with deep sleep
Driving at all can open things up with just a little stress. Get a cheap reacher thing for every room too

Today I remembered that the "news" that MAGA has consumed for over a decade renders it impossible to reach them - tragically - it's hard to explain if you don't know such people. No, they are not seeing the light.

I had previous surgeries & my abdominal muscles were weak... I lifted a window air conditioner so opened up a massive hernia -
No, all the surgeons are different you can feel sooo terrible and within a few days/weeks you feel like yourself !
Do not drive, even though it sucks

I've had 10 open abdominal surgeries ( including massive hernias)- unless instructed otherwise, it's imperative to get up & walk every hour to hasten recovery. Not long or strenuous walks, but frequent movement

We need to retake the Senate, House, and Presidency. When we have that, we need a constitutional amendment overturning Citizens United. It would be interesting to see how many Democrats would vote against their deep pocket corporate owners, I mean donors.

If only someone had thought to make a nuclear arms treaty with Iran back in 2015. America and the western European countries could have eased sanctions in exchange for Iran ending their nuclear weapons program and avoided all this conflict. Oh well. I guess now we'll never know.

1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isnโ€™t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

Lawrence O'Donnell is spot-on. Every single person who voted for the pedophile fรผhrer was well aware that Trump was a racist POS. Trump LIED for nearly 6 years about Obama being a Muslim born in Kenya. The FACT is, y'all voted for Trump bcz, like you, the shitstain is a racist.

What Democrats need to know to truly reform ICE I'm an expert, and the misconduct and corruption runs far deeper than even the deadly surges have shown.

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside.

What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there?

I will be back tomorrow. Accountability canโ€™t wait.

All of the above! It's not just that it makes it tough for a woman, but requires someone who can win the swing states...full of rural people... I live amongst non voting rural, mostly Red voters in a Blue State - Stefanik's district ( used to be Democratic)
I have little hope for my lifetime

Adored her as an extremely effective Senator, but our GD Electoral College will prevent a truly liberal woman to win.
Primary will be interesting tho
