Honest question here: How long can we have an "acting" Attorney General?

The irony here is OFF THE CHARTS. If not for "progressivism," this person wouldn't be an equal citizen in the USA, an attorney, a judge, or legally married to his white wife. Just to list a few benefits of "progressivism" he has enjoyed in his long life.

I'm tired of the verbiage of politicians "fighting" for me. I don't want public officials to "fight." I want them to work, competently and professionally. Why is that too much to ask? Why the constant adolescent focus on "fighting?"

Why are businesses/services so... thirsty? I go into the bank to deposit a couple checks. I receive an email, a text, and a phone call asking how my service was. I go to the pet store for cat food: an email follows, asking me to rate my experience. I'll let you know if I'm unhappy. Leave me alone.

Cat owners: Any other cat owners who need to wash their windows not solely to wash the windows, but because the cats have sneezed while gazing out of them and sprayed kitty snot on the glass? Anyone? Just me?

Happy #Caturday from a skeptical Duncan.

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

I would bet my life savings on the fact that FOTUS couldn't find Venezuela on a map of the world. Who is actually pulling the strings on this?

I'm about 3 hrs. into the Jack Smith deposition video. I'd love to know what relevance the GOP whining about how poor DJT had to have lots of lawyers and be in DC, NY & FL for court appearances & "Big Law" never hires Republicans, etc., has to do with Smith's cases? (pg. 114-119 in the transcript).

Note to self: It was a rookie mistake. Always check the yield of a recipe before doubling it. Now I have WAY too many ginger snaps. Way too many. But the house smells good, I guess.

This.

My electricity went out last evening and the first thing I did was check to see if any part of our country was under some sort of attack. That's the world we live in now. (Power company said it was an "equipment failure." It was out for three hours.)

The incompetence, from the largest thing to the smallest, is astounding.

A friend just told me her neighbor was recently "disappeared" by masked men, assumed to be ICE. They broke his car window and dragged him out of his car, directly in front of his condo (next door to hers). We live in suburban SW Ohio; there haven't been reports of ICE activity hereabouts.

It's Election Day in the USA. If you haven't voted yet, please make time today to do so. And be kind to your poll workers; some of us are not morning people but we arrive at the polls before the crack of dawn to make sure everything is in place to run smoothly. #ElectionDay

Appearing on my Facebook feed. So which is it? They endorsed him, or they don't know what to do about supporting him?

six packs of chicken and six of sausage if you turn down the cereal, bread, peanut butter, canned goods, milk, and fresh produce. He got quite belligerent and had to be escorted out. And that is why clients aren't allowed back to the shelves.

I volunteered at a food pantry this morning. We pack a cart based on the size of the family. Clients do not come back to the pantry. New client this morning insisted on seeing the pantry... and then tried to tell us what we were going to give him. No sir, that's not how it works. No, you can't have

On Indigenous People's Day, I think it's important to remember4 that the sitting VP called Native Americans "the enemy." www.alternet.org/vance-native...

My understanding is that every member of Congress has 15 to 18 staff members who work for them. Each one, 15 to 18 staff. How many of those positions have been eliminated in the DOGE efforts and now the shutdown purge? Curious minds would like to know.

What annoys me more than the fact that everyone currently in power in the government is so woefully, completely unqualified for their positions is that so many of my fellow Americans are A-OK with profound incompetence. Even when their own lives are negatively impacted. I'll never understand it.

I have a plumber working on my leaking bathroom sink. Somehow he set himself on fire (welding/soldering) & ran through the house with the flaming welding/soldering tool. Must've dropped it on the rug in my entryway because when I got up to see, that was in flames on the lawn. How's your day going?

Check out FOTUS's right hand in this photo released from his state dinner at Windsor Castle. Also look at how his feet tip sideways in his shoes. King Charles' feet included for comparison.

It's perfectly legal for a bakery to refuse to make a cake for a same-sex wedding, but it's illegal for an office supply/services store to refuse to print posters for a CK memorial vigil. Would someone explain this to me like I'm 4 years old?

So now they're working on voter fraud? From a FB group I follow.

I see in the news that the Utah shooter "isn't cooperating." I wonder if he's negotiating for a light sentence or release with no charges if he lies and says he's a "radical leftist" or otherwise works it around to blame the "radical left." The Ghislaine Maxwell effect.

My Christian values place me firmly beside former POTUS Carter. And yes, I blocked out Kirk's face because we've seen more than enough of it. Thoughts and prayers.

Ha!

don't know how to use guns, are too stupid to own guns, hate the Second Amendment, etc., etc., but now all of a sudden liberals/leftists/Democrats are elusive sharpshooters who can kill a man with one shot from 200 yards. Which is it? 2/2

Social media is flooded with people demanding civil war and eradication/imprisonment of all "liberals," "leftists," and "Democrats." It's interesting to note that these people (or bots, or paid trolls) spend so much time saying that liberals/leftists/Democrats hate guns, don't own guns, 1/2

What's Sen. Fetterman up to these days? I haven't seen anything about him in the news lately.

fresh produce. And fresh (not frozen) meat. I don't mean to sound hard-hearted, but if you're needy enough to need a food pantry, maybe be a little more accepting of what's offered. She left with next to nothing.

I volunteered at the local food pantry this morning. Stock is WAY down; it's sad. Then we had a client come in--single mom, three kids--who would not accept ANYTHING processed. No canned food, no peanut butter, no cereal, etc. She wanted ONLY ingredients (flour, sugar, butter, milk) and
