VERY thankful for the County Highway Crews in Wisconsin today! Lots of holiday travelers on the roads today. The plows are out busting drifts and fighting the wind to keep lanes clear. Be safe out there and slow down! #WIWX ❄️🦺❤️

Since today is the Marine Corps 250th Birthday and 50 years since the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, it's fitting to share a little about this Marine today.

Federal workers who took Trump's buyout get final paychecks and an uncertain future Federal workers who took the Trump administration's buyout offer come off the payroll at the end of September. Now some are confronting fear, regret and uncertainty as they figure out what's next.

Behind the chaos of the news cycle, thousands of federal employees are quietly off the books today, myself included. It has been an honor to serve you all as a Marine, a veteran, and a federal employee.

To my fellow departing feds, thank you for your service.

To those who remain, we see you. ❤️

A friend and I went to see Anne Hathaway in a production of Grounded in NYC about a decade ago. She was fantastic in it. I'm glad stories are being shared and performed in a well thought out way.

Heard Andrea Assaf's interview on @wdet.bsky.social this week about her new play coming to Detroit soon. Really caught my attention as a veteran interested in moral injury and the arts.

“Neither our media nor our political system is designed to deal with a far right authoritarian party” Mark Copelovitch unpacks his signature phrase.

"The media continues to cover politics as if it is still the 1990s. 'Both parties are basically center-right or center-left parties.' The journalism infrastructure in our country wants to pretend that that’s the world that we live in. The instinct is to treat everything politicians say as valid."

Hi Katie!!! Done and Done! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

My Providers are amazing and my care has remained consistent under this administration. But the staff are exhausted.

It feels like a reverse appointment. I want to tell them they're important and they matter and we need them at VA. Because we do. So if you work at VA, thank you. ❤️

This is a fair and reasonable request from a member of Congress. We should see more messages like this from Reps from both parties.

Vets need and deserve clarity, bi-partisanship and transparency around VA—-now more than ever.

That Guardian piece spread online today a few hours before my VA appointment. Seeing this quote on the wall right inside the main door of my clinic sat differently with me. No veteran coming to VA should ever wonder about access to care when they walk through these doors. Ever.

Kathleen Spangler, a 29-year-old U.S. Marine Corps officer, only vaguely remembered buying a few tickets in an online raffle back in December. Six months later, she got a text from a friend asking, “By chance, did you win a cottage in Ireland?” nyti.ms/4ebfpZe

Surprised to see the turnout there today! ❤️

I'm thinking of them all, especially today. ❤️

An info graphic titled work zone safety facts from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation

#NWZAW 🦺 It's National Work Zone Awareness Week! As someone who has gone behind the barrels in #Wisconsin, it can be scary as heck to see distracted drivers speeding through a work zone!

Check out these Wisconsin Work Zone safety facts and remember to:

🦺Stay Alert
🦺Give Space
🦺Slow Down

A very anxious coonhound stares out a window at a peacock that is walking in the grass.

Landlord: Sometimes, the peacocks from the farm walk around the yard. Are you ok with that?

Us: Yeah, that's totally fine!

Larry: UMMM EXCUSE ME?! WHAT THE ABSOLUTE HECK IS THAT?! 🤯🦚🐕

Six photos of a coonhound named Larry on his birthday every year since 2019. Most photos in the grid is a photo of him wearing birthday regalia.

Happy Birthday, Larry! 🎉

#OTD I found him in a ditch on my way to work. He barely weighed 6 pounds and was smaller than my cat. Now, he lives the good life with pizza bones, soft blankets, and a yard to run free in.

Thanks for being on this adventure with us, Larry Lovers! We ❤️ You!

Two men on a dirt race track are driving a remote-controlled monster truck in the brown dirt and are smiling and having fun doing it.

We went to #MonsterJam in Detroit today! Watching the drivers for El Toro Loco and Zombie during the break play with a remote-controlled Grave Digger was wholesome AF.
