In case facts still matter

It's not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities. [Cartoon by Jesse Duquette]

I have a very bad feeling about this...

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

Time to get to work… thankful for this view and the sunshine… I’ll be at my desk for some time… writing… hope you all get time to do work you love… make time… steal time… whether it’s to write or draw or dance or make music or to simply play… seize your moments… pay attention to the glimmers💫

How do you go from words to poetry?

I saw this leaf caught up as I was walking, and loved the striking red color against the tangle of branches. #fallcolors #photography #photographersofbluesky #BCcanada #canada #nature #naturphotography

😕 We are all paying for this vanity project

The East Wing was first added in 1942, under Franklin D. Roosevelt, primarily to provide office space for the First Lady’s staff and to conceal a newly built underground bunker known as the Presidential Emergency Operations Center (PEOC) during World War II.

How does tearing down the White House to build a ballroom help the American people? Explain it to me like I’m 5.

Just got back from a walk through the neighborhood on this blustery🍂 day, sunshine and dark clouds then sunshine and dark clouds then sunshine and dark clouds — a perfect October afternoon — and look🤗, I ran into an old friend🤡

On the streets of Vermont towns today, inspiring and funny signs everywhere. Lobster, shark, chicken, hippo, and Godzilla costumes. Peaceful chanting, talking, honking, waving, dogs and bikes and babies and us old folks singing Pete Seeger tunes. Did this heart good. Thank you to everyone out there!

That house does not belong to him

Trump’s presidency🥺

It’s long past time for Speaker Johnson to do his job and swear in Arizona Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva. She won on September 23rd that’s 26 days ago.

Hi! It’s a beautiful day here! Hope it’s the same with you, even if the weather isn’t perfect — find beauty, and pay attention to the glimmers💫

Boooooooo… @nytimes.com

@nytimes.com The October 18 protest, as buried in the print edition of the Sunday New York Times: No headline. Two small photos. Below the fold. I guess news coverage of the fight against fascism in the US isn’t on the New York Times’ agenda

There was a time when I mostly posted about writing and cats and life’s little daily amusements. I would like to do more of that.

one of my takeaways from this great piece is that weiss just doesn’t…sound like an intelligent person? or at least, not someone who has thought even a little bit about how and why they think the things that they do. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gieT...

They are trying to flip some republicans before they swear her in‼️ RELEASE THE FILES‼️

BREAKING: Sens. DURBIN, DUCKWORTH were just denied entrance to the Broadview ICE Facility in Illinois, unable to conduct constitutional role of oversight.

Walking home just after midnight…

Imagine that

This is not a border crossing. There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior. This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Guy who is zip-tying American children and shooting pastors on the head with pepper balls wants Peace Prize.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system. I am not fearful — I am fearless. We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

I’m fragile. Do you realize how fragile you are? My skin can rip easily, be punctured too. My bones are breakable, as is my heart. It is amazing any of us survives as long as some us do.

WATCH: Trump’s lawless Ice goons shoot an unarmed priest in the head with a pepper ball. Completely out of control.

It’s a steady rain, but not a downpour. And it will stop soon. Clouds may stay for a bit, but later we will see sunshine. I’ll need my umbrella for now. Life is like that.

It’s raining here this morning. The sound of it woke me early. It has not rained in quite some time, and it sounds beautiful.

I am so mad that “conversion therapy” got adopted as a term. It is abuse, plain and simple. Most people who are subjected to this bullshit need therapy after. Fuck these assholes.

Attorney General Pam Bondi came before the Judiciary Committee today. But she refused to answer a raft of important questions. On Tom Homan's bribe. On Donald Trump's new luxury plane. On January 6th pardons. On illegal strikes in the Caribbean. On Epstein. The stonewalling was staggering.

🚨🚨🚨 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did. 🚨🚨🚨
