Thanks to my friend who is flying back to Texas to vote. They don't trust the USPS since it took a very long time to get the ballot. Normally it would seem that the ballot would be on time, but... Thanks friend. That's quite an investment in democracy!

I honestly don’t know much about El-Sayed, but this is a perfect answer from him. It’s also hilarious that Tommy used to work for Josh Hawley and was paid 250k for influencer marketing AGAINST El-Sayed. They might want to get a refund. What a spectacular backfire. The walk of shame at the end. 🤣

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

I've been wondering what to do when kids dressed like ICE agents come to my door for trick or treat. I have decided I'll give candy with a message "ICE is not nice". I figure it's the parents who are to blame, not the little ones. Maybe I'll have lots of leftover message candy. I hope so!!!!!

Do any of you remember when the PRI party controlled Mexico? Does it seem we have or are moving toward that kind of situation here if we can't have change in the mid term elections?

Texas lawmakers (GOPs) are attacking H1b visas for teachers and others in education. They don't care about the needs of school districts, they seem intent on some sort of purity ideathat only Amerkans need apply!

Call me the devil if you must but I would like to see a list of quotes from public speakers who demeaned protective measures against Covid, with their dates of death from the disease!👿 Sadly, many of those nasty folks were able to hide in their gated communities while health workers died.

The V A seems to be suggesting/prescribing supplements a lot. I'm wondering if that is science led. Interested in knowledgeable, scientific opinions. (I know there will be unfounded comments but hope some folks who really are qualified will post.)

If a Canadian citizen is sent back to Canada for slapping a US teenage trump supporter I can accept that. What I find abominable is that the U S president is a convicted rapist!

So far no news of deaths or injuries but it's been an active morning weather wise in South Texas. Red Cross opening a shelter in Uvalde. There was a small tornado in San Antonio. Lots of small floods in flash flood alley. 2

My morning has changed from heading to a "workday" with volunteers to calling folks to help others and figuring out what to do with a lot of salad (with protein addins) That I prepped so everyone would have lunch at our work group!

In an article about concerns for the possible mass removal of children: "send them home" seems inappropriate. It's an AP article by Valarie Gonzalez and Rebecca Santana if you want to read it. Wouldn't "country of origin" or "former" home be more truthful?

Pete Hegseth has made it possible for Airforce Recruits to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence in a new way. He has mandated "medical freedom" from innoculations. Now 275 recruits (so far) are celebrating with FREEDOM FLU.

The Supreme Court decision on TPS reminds me that during WWII the US refused entry to Jewish refugees fleeing Hitler. They were sent back to die. Yes, I know other countries did this as well, but this is my country!

I wish people would quit posting articles that you can't read without subscribing to a publication. I can't afford to subscribe to every newspaper, newsletter, magazine for one story. I'm a retired public employee, not a billionaire.

I wish i could subscribe to all the news sources posted on Bluesky but I just can't. So frustrating when someone posts an article and you can see only the first paragraph before the SUBSCRIBE! message appears and the article disappears.

Hey, how about suggestions for the Texas Legislature about what Christanity has done over the millenia to impose God's will. Old testament too. For instance "The Harlot by the Side of the Road" The Pilgrims left Europe 'cause they didn't want to conform to the CHristoanpractices in Europe. Etc.

I have a problem with this description : The increased number of immigration cases has come as President Donald Trump has stepped up enforcement of immigration law in his second term. The so called enforcement has been skewed toward deportation.
