Blue collar, blue voting independent. Trump sucks! Now Connecticut, back when... Alabama... born in Birmingham, raised in Hayden, but Montevallo is my chosen home. I left for the Great North where I will stay, because I like snow... etc.

John Roberts has spent his entire career trying to kill the Voting Rights Act. Now his Republican-appointed majority is dusting off arguments once used to destroy Reconstruction to roll back the gains made during the civil rights era. The latest from @AriBerman & @pemalevy: tinyurl.com/3m6nawpj

@mapquest.com Thanks for making my drive a little bit more fun. I love my Questie and his little part in making navigation great again. 😜 And so happy he works with Android Auto! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

I used to find it cute how Birmingham Alabama was named after Birmingham UK. Sort of a novelty. Then I moved to New England. Each state has all the same names. The colonists were not very original.

Like the stable genius said, better get to raking or America will become a shit-hole country. 🙄 Climate change is the number one, primary, main, fucking existential threat we need to all work to solve.

Dozens of wildfires were burning in Oregon on Friday after thunderstorms delivered thousands of lightning strikes across a landscape that had been left parched by drought.

ENOUGH!!! RALLY ROUND THE BELL!! SCHOOL WALKIOUT MONDAY AT 12 TELL EVERYONE

Damnald #Trump needs to stop wasting so much time and money doing stupid shit like prosecutions based on his butt-hurt feelings or bitch moaning about late night hosts. He's created massive, massive real problems that he could take credit for not making worse if he tried.

If this actually happens the only positive of it will be seeing all the ways people deface the paper beside his signature. It will be like a game. DonaldJTrump sucks pedophile dumbass 8647 and so on. Our money will become graffiti. #trumpsucks

Here’s why MAGA is attacking our movement: There’s a new war in the Middle East. There’s a cost of living crisis. There’s a secret pedophile ring. They're hoping Americans care more about culture wars than actual wars. More about pronouns than prices. We're not falling for it.

Newly released records show a US citizen was shot and killed in Texas by a federal immigration agent last year during a late-night traffic encounter that was not publicly disclosed by the Department of Homeland Security. https://cnn.it/4kOEKvg

#ICEMurders #AbolishICE #Trumpsucks #impeachnoem #impeachTrump #jailtrump We have an overly funded group of people addicted to killing, abusing, and intimidating human beings. The aftermath will be terrible no matter what it is, entirely on the #GOP. Trump is their Frankenstein Monster!

Republicans are the nightmare. Democrats bug me. But they never said "You can't have guns," no matter how much the GOP claimed they did. And another claim? Death squads! Democrats never did that. That's Trump, Miller, and Noem. Literal Death Squads, masked and clapping at murder.

Quitting? Fired? Transferred? Impeached? All must be the first steps on the path to prosecution. These murderers, conspirators, facilitators, mob boss politicians... Jail time is the only just outcome. The dead demand it!

We cycle through screams, crying, yelling... Will this help solidarity in the US? On the other side of this, will those who haven't yet realize this as what the not-pale people have dealt with forever? Dig deep white America! This is only a tiny sample. But still we have more agency.

I've added addendums in my comments that Pretti was murdered by a mob of BPL and not ICE. It's hard to keep up with which chapter of the Murder Gang we're dealing with from murder to murder. #BPLMurders #ICEMurders #TrumpMurders #NoemMurders #DHSMurders #TrumpMurderGangs #prosecuteBovino
