Is it just me or does it bother you that when the Norse or the Scots celebrate the way their teams played we applaud them for their love and celebrating. But when the Argentine President tries to do the same thing for their team he gets told what he is doing is humiliating himself. That bothers me.

Many countries in Europe have gone through extraordinary changes in the past 40 years. Hungary was under Soviet control. Even after they were under Putin control. Trump is a new kind of threat that we have never dealt with. The only president to be tried for crimes other than speeding.

Riddle me this? If the Constitution says that a quorum for the House is a majority of the members of the house currently serving and there are three vacancies, why can't the 217 members that want to release the Epstein files go to work, call for a quorum and vote.

As the orange one gets closer and closer to invoking the Insurrection Act, remember the movie, "Wag the Dog." That is the scenario we are in in real life. We need to learn what to do to stop this. PUBLISH THE EPSTEIN FILES!!!!

With all the seemingly violent threats to our fellow citizens and the orange one thinking of using the response of protesters to the violence against everyone in the country with the Insurrection Act the people need to show they are smarter than the bullies.When the bullies get going, walk away. 1/2

The $400,000,000 palace in the sky? Was it new or used? There was a post somewhere saying that the Qataris sold one to Turkey and that that model of 747 was not FAA approved. So present or hand-me-down? Just asking for clarification.

I bet the only reason the Biden "Cover-Up" book information came out today was because Trump is accepting the castle in the sky from Qatar today. Can't let that story get all of the attention now can we. Gotta throw Biden, who is not president, under the bus.

I have a question about recent quotes from the orange one's team. If,as they say,the president does not have to follow the Constitution,because his oath doesn't say obey,doesn't that invalidate Article II? Can he have powers that are given in the Constitution and then not abide by the Constitution?

One thing that really bothers me about Schumer's capitulation is that if the Senate Republicans wanted to stop the shut-down and The Democrats did not vote for cloture, the Republicans could vote to end the fillibuster being used for CR votes. Or they could end fillibusters like Trump wants.

Ontario's premier announced that effective today the province is charging 25% more for electricity to 1.5 million Americans in response to Trump's trade war. Ontario provides electricity to MN, NY and MI. “If the US escalates, I will not hesitate to shut the electricity off completely,” he said.

Is it just me or does all this stuff with the firings of federal employees bring up the idea of a massive labor strike?I think there was one in Iceland not long ago over pay.If there was a massive strike including the military,air traffic controllers,law enforcement,maybe they would change tactics.

A while back, when I was working in Fairfax schools, one of my clients had bone cancer. She was in a lot of pain. She saw some of my photos one day. She said this photo with the bee doing her work made her feel that everything would be alright. Maybe it can do that for others too. Enjoy.

Can we all agree that due to his age of 78 that the election of Donald Trump is a DEI hire. Age discrimination is real. He is in that group that is protected by EEOC. That would make him diverse looking for equality and inclusion. I rest my case.

I just watched a video that asked where the Democrats are while the orange one puts out dozens and dozens of Executive Orders a day. Each one more extreme than the last. The video person said that Republicans would not do anything so where is the plan from the Democrats?

And when the Dems defend the people being stomped on. immigrants and LBGTQs, the term "woke" will be tossed around like it is a bad word to de-legitimize the fight to help them. You can't put together a plan to stop the orange one in a week. It takes time and planning.

Stop blaming the Dems for this. All of the Republicans have been compromised by what the orange one is doing. How were the leaders of the Dems to have law suits written and ready to go when they could not predict which outrage was going to happen first.

Hello to all my Bluesky🦋 family. I'm ba-aaack! I'm in London at the moment, but will be home soon. One question for you: Anybody miss me? Please like this post even if you didn't. Thanking you in advance, Mar🐫 🙏 ♥️ 👍

We need them to lead legal teams to show that the states rescinding their ratification is unconstitutional. We did fight a war over it. And that there is no date limiting the ratification in the amendment making the date argument unconstitutional. I think those are the point that need to be proven.

Senator Warner sent an email to honor Dr. King this morning. This was after he voted for the updated Laken Riley Act. That allows detention for undocumented people who shoplift? How many minority people have been arrested for being minority while shopping? This is wrong.

People can accuse someone they believe is undocumented of shoplifting and have them arrested and imprisoned until they are deported. That means they have no civil rights. Dr. King would be against this because he believed in compassion and civil rights.

This is what I wrote back. Dear Senator Warner: I can't believe you are honoring Dr. King while you vote for a bill that allows people to be imprisoned before they are convicted of misdemeanors and because they came here without documentation to flee violence. 1 of 2
