When hard rain lays one’s irises down to rot on the ground, one must improvise so that they can still be enjoyed. 🙂 ☀️

The corruption is staggering. 👀💩😡

For two years, Mike Johnson refused to hang the plaque on the wall honoring police officers who defended the Capitol on J6 against a mob of violent rioters, even though a law was passed to mandate it. But he supports paying over a billion dollars to the criminal rioters.

From Jay Kuo. The corruption is astounding. 👀💩😡

Mark Wentling for the Bulwark reports that last year FBI Director Kash Patel led a private snorkeling expedition very near the USS Arizona Memorial site in Pearl Harbor. This is perhaps one of the most vile things he has ever done. That place is a sacred burial site for over 1000 US Navy sailors. 😡

Trump is negotiating to settle his lawsuit against his own IRS, and one of the remedies being floated (along with almost 2 billion dollars) is the IRS dropping all audits of Trump, his family, and his businesses. Just absolutely staggering corruption.

Tom Nichols: “We are really seeing the cost of a debilitated president, a screwed up foreign policy process, and a weakened America on the world stage.” @radiofreetom.bsky.social

inflation 📈 corruption 🐍 waste 🗑️ debt 💸 incompetence 🤡

Courtney grills McMahon on increasing education costs for nurses COURTNEY: We have a nursing shortage, and you're worsening it. What do you say to nurses who asked for your consideration? McMAHON: Nurses are an incredibly respected profession COURTNEY: Your rule certainly doesn't show that

Voters in my suburban district want MN lawmakers to do something to stop the increasing rates of gun violence. Eliminating easy access to weapons of war is an important first step. www.minnpost.com/state-govern...

Like many of your friends & neighbors from BOTH parties, I am a local election judge. We are now all targets of the 🍊 one & his conspiracy goons. Is this what people voted for - to harass & treat our local election worker neighbors like criminals? 👀🕵🏼‍♂️👨🏼‍⚖️👀💩

$400 million for a billionaire’s ballroom. $1 billion to retrofit a plane. $25 billion and rising for an unnecessary Middle East war. But we can’t afford to pay for health care, food assistance, child care, education, or full veteran’s benefits. All while the deficit has risen higher 📈 than our GDP.

First backyard fire 🔥 of 2026. 🌷Spring vibes 🌊

The recent SCOTUS decision is fully intended to neuter the power of over 60% of American voters to impose a permanent right wing minority rule not just in red states, but also in Congress.

The incompetence is stunning. 🤡 If they are this careless with doctors’ personal information, what’s happening with all of our personal data that #doge illegally pillaged? 👀

The Roberts Court Shows Its True Partisan Colors A Republican power grab triumphs over minority voting rights. ...

We can afford $400 million for a gilded ballroom and $900 million to retrofit a “gifted” plane for the 🍊one, but yet could not afford $700 million to keep the ACA subsidies for regular working folks? Oh, and “customs fees” are just another phrase for “more tariffs.” 🙄🤬

Yesterday, CD6 DFL delegates overwhelmingly endorsed @dougchapinforcongress to flip the 6th and defeat Tom Emmer - Congratulations, Doug! #LFG! 🥳🎉💙💨🌊

All those politicians running for their lives during a shooting finally got to understand how kids in schools feel.

I know it's been chaotic lately but it bears repeating: Jeffrey Epstein did not act alone. Arrest them all.

Are you freakin kidding me? I never heard that until now 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files. Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas. You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.

A reminder while Republicans bitch about Dems finishing the redistricting fight they started: they have full control of gov’t— they can pass a law banning gerrymandering any time they want. They won’t. Republicans aren’t mad gerrymandering exists; they’re mad that they’re not the only ones using it.

OBAMA’S DEAL WITH IRAN WAS AN ACTUAL DEAL AND DIDN’T COST ANYTHING

HASSAN: I agree all should have access to healthy foods, but Trump has made it harder to afford groceries. Do high prices make it easier or harder for families to eat healthy? RFK Jr: I would say that beef has dropped by 1% last quarter HASSAN: No. Beef prices are up 20% since Trump took office

Any "extraordinarily brilliant person" would know his presidency is in free-fall after his disastrous decision to enter another endless war-of-choice in the Middle East & that on November 3rd accountability is coming for the most corrupt criminal Administration in U.S. History. tick...tick...tick

RFK Jr: This is not a problem that was created by the Trump administration or the big beautiful bill KAINE: Not in Virginia. All three of the hospitals cited the reconciliation bill for the closures

This is your periodic reminder that Democrats introduced legislation in 2021 to ban gerrymandering nationwide and every republican voted against it except two who were absent.

Happiest of birthdays 🎂 to my two ♥️s! Carrie turns 27 today, & Sarah will be 24 tomorrow. I am proud & grateful that two of the best humans on the planet call me mom. 🥰🥳🎉

For the record, for anyone who’s forgotten, it’s sheer madness for a president to contradict himself nearly every day. It’s profoundly wrong that we can’t trust the veracity of a single thing that he says.

As usual, it’s actually about corruption, waste, and destruction 🛢️ for the benefit of billionaires 💰and big corporations. 💦Boundary Waters 🌊

From Heather Cox Richardson. As wholesale inflation rises to 4%, it’s becoming clear that rising costs are mostly due to the 🍊one’s choices over the past year and are dragging down our economy. 📉

What?? 😲The incel bros of DOGE did even more illegal 💩with our data, and the government lied in court to allow them to keep doing it? Who would have ever thought this administration would do something like that, said no truly savvy, informed person ever. 🙄

A gentle reminder that we have not forgotten 👀 the Epstein Files and victims.

This as the 🍊 one proposes even deeper cuts to safety net programs for working folks so he can pay for his failing war and the ordinance that it has needlessly wasted. And so his kids and billionaire buddies can make 💰 on the military contract companies they’ve invested in.

From Meidas Touch & Kid Rock himself - our tax dollars at work while millions can’t afford gas, groceries, or health insurance. 🙄💩

Impressive turnout in Waconia, MN for today’s No Kings protest - over 300! 💙⚡️🥳🇺🇸No 👑s

Now get out and vote in the midterms like your life depends on it, because it does. #NoKings

Carrie & I remembered to take a break from photography & video duties to take our own selfie at the Chaska No Kings protest. Fantastic turnout in Carver County (MN) - well over 300 in Waconia and in the thousands in Chaska! No👑s 🇺🇸💙🥳⚡️😎

And now that the Dow is below 50,000 “dollars”, will Pam Bondi release the Epstein files?

The Dow has almost completely erased the gains for Trump’s entire presidency. Are we great again yet?

Are you ready? I am! 🥳🇺🇸 #NoKings rallies are being held all over the country tomorrow. Find one near you at nokings.org. The pic is Paul & me at a local Carver County No Kings rally last October. 😎⚡️👑

TSA agents go without pay while ICE agents get paid plenty to do what, exactly? Like the Iran War, the purpose of ICE at airports is different depending on who in this administration is “explaining” it.

This administration and the EpsteinClass it serves does not give two 💩’s about regular folks. 😡Iran War☠️
