Here I am brokenhearted. Simmering hope. I am a tiny blue dot in a sea of red rectums. I garden, fish, star gaze and miss my cats. Wondering where we go from here. FYI: hello, I’m fine this morning. This is not a dating site. DM=block 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻

To all journalists who have been rudely insulted by the would be king: if you’re attending the WH Correspondents dinner, bring a bottle of Vicks vapo rub. When he takes the podium, everyone apply some under their nose. All at the same time. For the smell.

Trump may not be able to legally withdraw from NATO, but practically? The damage looks the same whether we slap a *legal* designation on it or not.

It turns out that sitting in the Supreme Court with his arms folded and a pout on his face may not have been the genius move Donald thought it was. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

go.bsky.app/7rgDsZM 47 didn’t ask Congress or present an argument to the American people to attack Iran. So he is an outlaw thinking he must attack for no good reason. We will see more radical people attacking us because of his actions. We need him out. Follow and call for action.

Rand Paul doesn’t oppose this guy for the job because he isn’t qualified but because he personally insulted Rand. Got it, more America first gop stuff.

watch Markwayne Mullin's facial expression as Rand Paul confronts him for "never having the courage to look me in the eye and tell me that the assault was justified. Today you'll have your chance. Tell it to my face."

Because Pam Bondi is the most corrupt and depraved Attorney General in American history, she doesn't seem to care that it's her job to bring rapists of girls and young women to justice--not be a cheerleader for the fucking Stock Market.

In less than a week the Kennedy Center has effectively closed and our local DC paper has been gutted, both by billionaires. I don’t think immigrants are our problem in this country.

Our government is locking up innocent children but protecting the men who raped and tortured innocent children. Do not normalize this.

They’re taking children from Minnesota and locking them up like criminals in detention camps in Texas. For the love of God, send our kids home and bring an end to this nightmare. www.startribune.com/walz-demands...

I don’t believe Tom Homan. I think this is a ploy to get @democrats.senate.gov to fund DHS. They lied about deescalation last week and I don’t believe a word the Cava Czar says.

Trump 'border czar' Tom Homan says 700 immigration officers will be withdrawn from Minnesota immediately. Roughly 3,000 officers are currently deployed in the state.
