On getting older...It used to take two days to unpack the Christmas decorations, put up our artificial tree, and decorate the front door. Now, it is takes multiple days. We're on our fifth day now. We'll do this as long as we can stay able. 🌲🎄

When the time allows…bye- bye presidential pardons! It’s a toxic privilege that is unnecessary!

Anyone defending execution as a reasonable punishment for drug smuggling is a Nazi. Pass it on.

If the shoe fits..

Note to Trump re “affordability:” My 70 year old sister has an intellectual disability. She works daily in a workshop. Her rent was $700. per month incl utilities for the past 6 years. She just received a notice that her rent will be $1100 per month not incl utilities exceeding her monthly income.

@maddow.bsky.social Regarding Burn Order: Something to mention...a significant number of German and Italian citizens were incarcerated in the camps. Citizens. encyclopedia.densho.org/German_and_I...

@jeremyjenkins.net Wish we didn’t have the tariffs and shipping fees here.

Please! Tell me! Are we officially at war with Venezuela? Does the term “war crime” apply if we are not at war? Aren’t the attacks on the boats in open waters murders? Has the DOD murdered at least 80 persons, not just two?

Trump is not a president who represents the people of our nation. He openly disenfranches and demeans more than half of our population: Democrats; immigrants; those of color; those with disabilities; etc. We are "the people" in the Preamble of our Constitution. Let's own our heritage.

@msnowreports.bsky.social This is a theme.."The National Guard isn't trained to police." Someone please explain the difference between the training of police officers and the National Guard in terms of Trump's moronic effort to bring down crime. Would training have made a difference in DC shooting?

I'm so sick and tired of Trump using our taxpayer money to indict those on his so called "enemies list.". Money better spent on politics comes to benefit so many who are in need . The DOJ is supposed to be about justice for the greater good. Not about unjust retribution for Trump. Indict Bondi!

Are you in the "middle class"? Middle class income ranges from about $48,000 to $148,000....a $100,OOO difference that speaks to haves and have nots even within the so called middle class. It's a joke.

Is Trump a chameleon? Or is he changing his colors for a reason? The new image... I'm for winning back the voters who would vote for Mamdani? deadline.com/2025/11/trum...

Note the before and now images of the destruction of THE PEOPLE’S HOUSE! www.thedailybeast.com/see-every-an...

Trump: They have this NEW word…”affordability!” Makes one wonder about the graduation requirements at the Wharton School. www.rawstory.com/trump-afford...

Have you noticed? Every time Kristi lies, her hair extensions grow longer? www.msn.com/en-us/news/p...

Eli Weinstein “Whoops! I did it again!” No worries, Trump’s got your back! abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory...

A time to contemplate that for which we’re grateful!

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

@realtimers.bsky.social Hey Your rant on socialism is ill informed. A Democratic Socialist is not against capitalism. We who think capitalism on steroids is toxic to the well being of our nation want to be able to share in the wealth. Poland has national healthcare! search.yahoo.com/yhs/mobile/s...

One in ten Americans is impoverished in the USA. Real people…the disenfranchised ignored by this government and being deprived of their essential resources. The poor are not thinking about buying a home. They need a good paying job, food, rent money! www.americanprogress.org/data-view/po...

Question not asked...What does Melanie a know about Epstein?

The guy who looks like he belongs on the cover of MAD Magazine, is leading a MAHA Summit! Absurdity reigns in DC. Those who have no national healthcare plan,who would defund the ACA, who have no medical backgrounds, dare to speak of “health!” In a SUMMIT! share.google/images/DeNe3...

Trump declares that our country doesn’t have talented workers! The audacity! If that were even true, why would he decimate the Dept of Education? Why would he target diversity in our Universities? He doesn’t have the ability to realize how illogical he is! www.thedailybeast.com/trump-declar...

I like Lawrence, and I usually agree with him. I’m tired of analysis based upon “how it used to be” in the Senate. It’s a new world up on the Hill. Compromise has been erased from GOP memory. If Schumer can’t influence Senators, then he is not a leader. He’s just another member of the Senate.

Oh, how wonderful it would be if Obama could run for a third term! DonOld should consider what he wishes for...a third term? Then Obama...

Ghislaine Maxwell’s deluxe prison accommodations are “unbelievable”. Yet “believable.” Too much about Trump’s corrupt DOJ is that. abcnews.go.com/US/ghislaine...

I’m weary of hearing from those who used to be in the government droning on about “how things used to be” as if it somehow informs anything that’s happening in the present. Yes, Congresspersons worked across the aisle and compromised. Yada, Yada. And bread was 3 loaves for $1.00.

Pardons are flying out of the White House like buzzards swarming over a dead carcass.

Hey Mike! Next up! 1). Install Rep Grijalva. 2) Release the Epstein Files to the public! Busy, busy after your extended vacation.

@baldwin.senate.gov vote no on the MAGA proposal! Dems cannot be complicit in the MAGA/Trump effort to take away the ACA. The Republicans will tout the passage of this budget as bipartisan. Passage is going to split the Dems into factions just when we’re pulling together!

@kaine.senate.gov If Dems vote for the MAGA proposal, they will be as implicated as the Republicans when healthcare costs skyrocket. YOU will be remembered for your vote.

Don’t cave! Our party is relatively United for the first time since the 2024 election. Keep us United in this shutdown.

@kaine.senate.gov NO! Don’t back down. This will split the Democratic Party bc of the distrust. Didn’t you learn anything from the results of the election in VA? Young people are behind the Dems bc they are fighting back! Don’t cave!

@schumer.senate.gov Do not cave! Hell to pay for Dems. Stay United for our principles!

@schumer.senate.gov Don’t cave for some half assed compromise. Please! If you haven’t figured out their flimflam gaslighting, you should give up your position. Cut a deal where those who need healthcare get what they need. Affordable healthcare . Period.

Hey, AI…! Stop thinking for me as I text or email. I can correct for myself. I’m totally pissed that I have to correct for you as well as myself.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Do not cave! This from an Ohio senior citizen white woman who believes that the future believes belongs to the young who vote!

Thank you President Obama for your courage. It takes true patriotism to stand up during these times of potential violent blowback. Thank you to each member in your family. Truly. Can't be easy, but it's so appreciated.

Thank you Bobbi Bittker and @americanbar.org for the nice write up! www.americanbar.org/content/dam/...

We need laws and regulations to control AI “advancements” that are not beneficial. This technology is advancing too rapidly to determine its effects on humanity. Unfortunately, we have a dysfunctional government that is not paying attention. fedscoop.com/radio/the-st...

Hey Dem Californians! I'm seeing the long voting lines as I sit here in Ohio. Just to let you know your patriotic patience is appreciated. Prop 50 is important to the nation! 🗳️☑️

Dems are sweeping the elections! I imagine Mike Johnson sitting at his desk with his forehead on the top of it, hands over his head. Every time someone approaches him, he screams, “Get the f*ck out of here!”

Who signed the pardon? Trump doesn’t know! We want to know! Trump must’ve had this pardon signed by autopen! Who authorized this? www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

From Evanston ,IL: Grandchild asks, “Poppy, how do you spell ‘ice’? “ Poppy responds, “T-H- U-G-S.”

Ho him, so what! Lying is Trump’s modus operandi. Everybody knows. To accept this as an unassailable fact is to accept participation in Trump’s corruption of ethics and morality. Keep calling him out. Fact check!

It’s interesting that Trump chose Gatsby as the opulent and decadent theme of his party. It’s appropriate for him to identify with Gatsby who was a crook. Trump may not be aware of the fact that the Jazz Age ended in the Great Depression. Americans should take heed www.history.com/articles/gre...
