My wife is 13 years breast cancer free and having her annual mammogram this afternoon. If you look up strong in the dictionary, her name will be among many!

I saw Lindsey Graham was trending, and thought he might've fallen out of his closet.

It was fun seeing bribe for hire Pam Bondi get annihilated in her bullshit perjury-filled Senate hearing today, but I would’ve much preferred seeing her sent to prison for fraud, corruption and bribery.

The Texas National Lard arrives in Chicago. It looks like they had to haul their asses there in a semi. #Pinks #ProudBlue #TexasNationalGuard

Orlando Florida yesterday.

The scenes out of Chicago should outrage us all. These federal agents are out of control, committing senseless acts of violence & putting everyone at risk.   American citizens are being detained & brutalized.   This kind of immigration "enforcement" shouldn't be acceptable to anyone.

HE is making the country in his image, weak and bloated

Herschel Walker has been confirmed as the U.S. Bahamas Ambassador. It’s been reported that just as soon as Herschel learns to to tie his own shoes without help, he will begin a program teaching young people to tie theirs.

A shocking incident is raising alarms: ICE agents were reportedly on rooftops “shooting rubber bullets” at peaceful protesters who were simply “standing there flipping them off.” This blatant abuse of power demands accountability. #BlueCrew #ICE #CivilRights #ProtestRights #UseOfForce

Anyone disagree that they were right about everything? BOTH OF THEM! Please vote accordingly in the Special Elections in November and in the midterms next year! 🗳️💙

The Attorney General of the United States just lied stating that people WHO DO NOT receive free healthcare are getting free healthcare.

Update from the war zone in Portland.

Durbin: "What's happening in Illinois is outrageous. To think they're going to federalize the Texas National Guard and send them into my state is not only necessary, it's almost criminal."

Posted about 23 hrs ago Credit: @btnewsroom.bsky.social "btnewsroom: In response to the announced deployment of 200 National Guard troops & 150 🧊 agents to Portland, a group of military veterans gathered in front of City Hall, calling on service members to remember their oath to the Constitution"

All these headlines saying “Bondi Goes on the Attack.” Really? She wasn’t in the octagon, she’s a public servant who was at an oversight hearing. Her job was to answer questions. She refused to do her job. Stop glamorizing and whitewashing this moronic, performative bullshit.

Agree. Agree. Agree.

So the American taxpayer eats it twice, once on tariffs and again on a second farm bailout. I’m glad farmers are getting help, no one should lose their farm, but it’s remarkable how fast “socialism” stops being a dirty word when the checks clear in red counties.

A federal grand jury declined to indict two people charged with assaulting law enforcement agents outside a suburban Chicago ICE facility, an attorney for one of the defendants said, Megan Crepeau and @benjaminpenn.bsky.social report news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/...

Pritzker is right. They want to normalize troops in cities so they can steal every election just like Putin does.

I CALL UPON EVERY MEMBER OF THE TRAITOROUS GOP TO UNCONDITIONALLY SURRENDER OR BE DESTROYED 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Kkkarolying Leaveus is taking Trumps # estimates as real.

You want to fix the ACA? Easy. Strip Congress of their diamond public health plans and pay them the median American income: $41,400 a year. No insider trading, no perks, and dock every vacation day after seven. Watch how fast they fix healthcare then.

California joins the nation in recognizing Disability Employment Awareness Month — a celebration of the 7M+ adults with disabilities who call California home and enrich our state. Together, we can keep growing an inclusive workforce for the fourth-largest economy in the world.

These mutherfuckers hate like this because they’re miserable and deplorable. 70 years and he still can’t rest from you pieces of shit!

the guy who caught cal raleigh’s homer was wearing a shirt that said dump 61 here and he immediately took it off and had a shirt that said dump 62 here

Does anyone have a report from Kkkristi Gnome about her tour of Portland? Will she tell the truth?

After yelling and obfuscating to senators for hours, Dick Durbin hit her with this one: "Eventually you are going to have to answer for your conduct in this. You won't do it today, but eventually you will." Suddenly, she went SILENT.🔥 She knows. You're phucked, Pam....just sayin'

Being disabled costs a lot more than not being disabled. Disabled folk are more likely to be in poverty, and many aren't allowed to accrue any savings. So they have to resort to expensive, often unregulated, credit to survive... Costing even more. It's a horrible reality.
