If you’re just pissed off, like me, about the price of groceries, you’re lucky. You’re not making decisions like paying for housing/utilities/medical expenses vs. eating. Please support your local food banks - now!

Gee, I can’t imagine why…

This is 25 miles from my home. I’ve turned into an old lady who peeks through the curtains upon hearing any noise on the street outside my house.

Thanks Senator Murphy!

I live catty corner from a funeral home. Doesn’t bother me. It gives me the opportunity to pray for people I don’t know. Today there was a wake, lots of cars parked on my street. I saw in the paper the name of the deceased, and I worried that ICE was going to show up. That bothers me.

My 2025 garden after almost 2 weeks of inattentiveness on my part due to family health issues. Let’s see if I can pull a rabbit out of my hat with 2 weeks to last frost date.

Tell me Mike Waltz has been fired without telling me Mike Waltz was fired.

Just fried a pound of bacon to add to a baked potato soup I’m making for dinner. My husband just called me “weird” for saving the bacon grease for use in future cooking. We’ve been together for a couple of decades now but he’s never noticed that his weekend breakfast is cooked in bacon grease?

I’m not Catholic, but I really respected this Pope. JD Vance is a fake Catholic as far as I’m concerned. There is no way he can reconcile his “beliefs” with his actions. youtu.be/4trg8xjp9vQ?...

💯 Do what you can. Not all of us can get out to protest. I’ve expanded my garden this year to donate fresh produce to my local food pantry. I’m financially supporting Dems locally and nationally as much as possible. Please don’t think you’re impotent and can’t do anything about this. It all matters.

Yes. Don’t come here. My brother lives in Australia and I’ve told him the same. That it isn’t safe for him to come home for a visit with our 84 year old mother, his siblings, his niece and nephew and their children (2 of them newborns), well It’s just heartbreaking.

Me thinks she dost protest too much.

My husband is a veteran. FOTUS is not and has never been fit to serve. It has nothing to do with h bone spurs and everything to do with his lack of character.

pro tip: if your government claims to have no money for children's heathcare but will eagerly waste millions on a gaudy military parade to stroke the fragile ego of a broken-inside president, you just might live in a shithole country

Proud of my birth state and Cory Booker.

Let’s break this down: in summary- he’s shat his pants because US treasury bonds were being sold off like lemonade in a desert. He’s fucked up big time. And any other spin is bullshit.

Uh, why the pause on the tariffs FOTUS if many of these countries were calling you to kiss your ass and begging for deals? Was there a breakdown in negotiations with the penguins or what?

Tax tip: Many people love getting a big tax refund every year. That only means you’ve loaned the federal and/or state government your money all year interest free. With the economy the way it is and what it may become, please consider changing your withholding to increase your take home pay.

I am begging world leaders and American corporations to NOT negotiate a deal with FOTUS to get exemptions for certain products from tariffs or a tariff reduction of any kind. This is what he wants. He doesn’t honor any deal he makes. He needs to go down in flames for this and take MAGA with him.

This an important reminder. House Republicans have the power to stop this mess. They own this.

To anyone thinking that factories are going to spring up in this country like bouncy houses at a birthday party, get your head out of your ass. And even if they did, you better not be fooling yourself that jobs there would be high paying and union protected. They would be unregulated sweat shops.

The last time Republicans introduced tariffs like this they lost power for 60 years. We can only hope for the good of the country that happens again. #TrumpsTariffs

Protest @Heritage Foundation, 4/5/25 at 3:30pm. See video below for more info. youtu.be/j9xesS_zMU4?...

Don't let us down Homer

Well, this made me finally break down in tears today.

When you need to keep busy while waiting for the polls to close in states you don’t live in and now dinner is ready to be put in the oven 3 hours early. Unbaked Baked Ziti below.

I’m not sure Pam Bondi would care if an attorney working for her department was jailed over this. I’d put Kristi Noem in jail though until all the “administrative errors” they made in this debacle were rectified. This wasn’t the only mistake. Surely she has a costume suitable for the occasion.

Wisconsin, tomorrow's Election Day! Just one more sleep before you Vote for Susan Crawford and tell Elon Musk to fuck off! Susan Crawford is the only candidate who will uphold the Constitution and protect the rights of Wisconsinites... And, unlike her opponent, she's not for sale! Hey, Elon! 🖕

Senator Booker is filibustering on the Senate floor right now to protest FOTUS. He started 2 hours ago and said he will continue as long as he is physically able.

Tulsi was is doing the perjury polka right now on live television.

Canadian friends: I would like to purchase an “Elbows Up” shirt made in Canada or at least from a Canadian business. My online searches are only turning up made in China products sold by US businesses. Can you recommend a source in Canada that would ship to the US?

Not convinced Hegseth will be ousted as a result of Signal Gate. He absolutely should be. Clearly the 3 months I gave him below was overly generous.

Two residents here in Tennessee have started this petition to rename the Nashville airport to Dolly Parton International Airport in response to republicans wanting to rename it for Trump. Here’s the link to sign!

Here’s a little something for my Canadian friends. Way to go Spokane! I’d like to point out that the speaker stated she was originally from NJ - doing Jersey proud.

Horrifying: After the contract tracking Ukrainian children abducted by Russia was terminated, the underlying evidence of these potential war crimes seems to be missing, a bipartisan group of Reps just charged in letter to Rubio. Two GOPers signed. Details here: newrepublic.com/article/1929...

We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at. A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth. HAIRCUTS. This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.

🤬

Trump supporters are in distress with…Trump 💀

NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!” @USRepMikeFlood: “So your proposal to solve (the debt) is tax the rich?” NEBRASKA CROWD: *CHEERS WILDLY* (not sure this went quite as he planned 😬)

Marking myself safe from watching Chuck Schumer on Chris Hayes.

If we are deporting all men who have extremist tattoos without hearings, this dude would be in El Salvador by now.

BREAKING: The Canadian Anthem is now blasting on speakers outside the White House.

Heritage Foundation protest yesterday. #wearetheflood youtu.be/A69GtWE5OU4?...

@cliffcashcomedy.bsky.social I shared your YouTube video with the details about The Heritage Foundation protest today. Good Luck! Looking forward to the footage.

DC folks - noon today: protest at The Heritage Foundation. youtu.be/oAbbw7KaiwU?...

Exactly!

They are freezing bank accounts of Habitat for Humanity and similar groups
