Texas law enforcement, hospitals, state agencies, and schools are required by law turn over the immigration status of those they come into contact with. For example, if a minor American citizen is hospitalized, any undocumented family members are (supposed to be) turned in.

I got a call from my middle son. He has finally woken up to reality. “This isn’t what I voted for. I just donated to the #JasmineCrockett campaign. We have got to change this.” I didn’t remind him again this is EXACTLY what he voted for. The MN videos are changing minds & votes. #ICE #Texas

I don’t donate to GoFundMe campaigns for a variety of reasons. There is no way to verify the facts or where the money actually goes, and they don’t qualify as charitable contributions. But if I did, knowing the company supports the murderous ICE goons terrorizing my country would stop me. #ICE

This poster obviously has no idea about the US Constitution. We have no king, and our legislature is not (supposed to be) controlled by a political Party. The President has no power to dissolve Congress. This is NOT a parliamentary democracy like those in Europe. The US is a constitutional republic.

That awkward moment when your past foreign policy faceplants in real time.

This strikes me as the truth. What do you think?

Anybody know a way to block explicit content on #Bluesky? Love posts about dogs & support everyone’s right to their own kind of kink, but the amount of “puppy porn” in my feed is just too much. Suggestions, please. #ContentFilter #BlueskyHelp

Any sensible oil industry executive has to realize that committing millions (or billions) to rebuild the infrastructure of an unstable country based on Trump’s promise to cover the cost from tax revenue is “unsustainable”, not to mention illegal.

My birth mother (Jane Pelph) edited the WWII booklet quoted below that defined fascism for American troops serving in WWII. Scary that the great great grandchildren are living in the fascist America she could not have envisioned. #Fascism #Trump open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

More racism from Trump & Hegseth. #Racism youtu.be/QMvPBlWnNt4?...

I made a decision years ago to use my real name online as a way to remind myself I am accountable for what I post. I play a word game which requires a short name, so I am Mrs_H there. I understand some jobs make that very hard, but it works to remind me that every post a public. #socialmedia

I did not know he was blind as well as delusional.

I recently ran into someone who accused me of supporting eugenics because I admitted to purchasing 3 of the 15 dogs I have loved. I bought my first purebred Tibetan Terrier after adopting 3, and explained why in this very old blog post. #Dogs #TibetanTerriers debmcalister.com/2011/07/22/l...

Power is out all over my little town today. Wonder who crashed into a tower on this bright sunshine filled morning.

He is quite simply insane and unfit for office.

As usual, Trump’s plans will boost cororate profits while working class taxpayers foot the bill. #Trump #Venezuela #Taxes www.nbcnews.com/business/ene...

Just had a visit from the sheriff. Seems my son called for a welfare check after I missed two calls & texts. Not sure if I am happy he cares or annoyed. Welfare checks can go wrong in TX where cops shoot dogs, break doors, and injure homeowners they were “checking on”. #Texas

My money would be on someone related to Trump, Hegseth, Vance, or Rubio. What do you think?

Nothing in my lifetime comes close to Trump’s heinous actions in Venezuela.

So the “experts” are saying people who can afford to hire help and eat out are happier than those struggling to make ends meet? Gee. That’s like saying pretty people who like posing for selfies are happier than those struggling with appearance issues. apnews.com/article/rela...

FOLKS NEED TO REALIZE HOW HUGE THIS IS For the first time in modern Texas history, Dems have candidates running in every state and federal race on the 2026 ballot. That includes all congressional seats, every state House and state Senate race, plus statewide judicial and State Board of Education.

The legendary Miss Bette Davis gives good advice.

Started the new year with a midnight supper of Hopping John (a traditional dish of rice, black eyed peas, celery, onion, and ham) and cornbread. Black eyed peas are supposed to bring good financial health for the year ahead. Wishing all my Blue Sky friends a healthy & prosperous 2026! #2026

Kindle tells me I read 295 ebooks in 2025. That would be impressive except I share my Amazon Kindle Unlimited account with my husband and a grandson. All three of us are readers. #books #2025

I mean, let's talk about the obvious.

Me too. And it sickens me to agree with the disbarred Nixon acolyte about anything.

From Mark Hamill. I did not think an AI on Truth Social would tell the truth, did you?

In Texas, I know people who have had snakes, alligators, and various small mammals take up residence under their house or outbuildings. But I don’t know anyone who has had a bear move in. #Bear #California www.sfgate.com/la/article/c...

30 new followers in the last 2 weeks who had no bio or description. 18 had zero posts. I know everybody starts somewhere, but if you want a follow back, please post at least a sentence like “human living in the USA, not a MAGA bot.” Thank you for your attention to this matter.

This is an important change that has slipped by most Americans. It doesn’t just affect voting. If you file quarterly taxes or license renewals, this can have a big impact.

Sounds like an accurate report to me, if you replace the word “America” with “The ruling party in America”. What do you think?

Trump keeps claiming there are no murders in DC since he sent the National Guard there. The families of 128 murder victims would beg to differ. They claim Trump is ignoring them as he lies about fixing the problem and brags to make himself the hero. newrepublic.com/post/204790/...

DJT is supposed to have the more than full-time job of being President of the USA. But he has time to watch hours of TV, post dozens of rambling social media messages, host events he charges people to attend, and run a variety of “side hustles” that make a mockery of the Constitutional rules.

Morning.

I am ready to start packing the Christmas stuff away, but my husband isn’t. Just never got the seasonal spirit this year.

Why do people make guesses about fragrances and components when gifting lotions and other personal care items? Another Christmas when I got a half-dozen gifts made with things I am allergic to or simply can’t stand to smell. A nice bag to drop off at the shelter tomorrow.

The Biden family social media Christmas post. So much better than the felon’s hateful message.

The kids next door got an ATV, complete with a light bar for Christmas. I know this because they set every dog in the neighborhood to barking at 6:30 am. Merry Christmas, y’all!

Stopped for gas and a Powerball ticket. A young man saw me struggling with my walker and rushed to pump my gas. Inside, two people in line let me go ahead of them. The Christmas spirit was strong on Christmas Eve.

#Christmas #Cats #cartoons

December 23, and it’s 77 degrees at 7:45 am. “White Christmas” is blaring from the speakers in the doctor’s office lobby while patients in short sleeves wait in line. Christmas in Texas y’all. #Christmas

$802 tariff on a $29 Barbie doll from Canada? Guess Trump really wants to enforce his “one doll” Christmas! #Tariffs #Canada #Christmas #Trump youtu.be/TQtIQm4K24s?...

I raised a grandson who juggles swords and torches while blindfolded, another who “spins fire”, and a movie stuntman son. None thought of this, but I wouldn’t have been surprised if they had. #Christmas #Santa #Cartoon

Cookie trays for neighbors delivered today. Just 5 kinds this year - Black & Whites, Dr. Pepper (frosted chocolate), Mexican Wedding Cookies, and White Chocolate Spice, with the Rollo Pretzels. We have become the old couple our neighbors check on, so cookies are a small thank you. #Christmas
