My father was ANTIFA. He flew in the 8th Air Force under Doolittle. He devoted years of his life to defeating Fascism in North Africa and Italy. I imagine he would not rest in peace if he saw what Trump's MAGA is doing to America today.

🚨911 Emergency🚨 Nancy Mace tells pregnant women to take Ibuprofen.

Agree….

Innocent school children were mass murdered on the same day Charlie Kirk was murdered. The Kirk murder was outrageous and a moral abomination. But where is the outrage about the murder of our innocent children? Is the massacre of innocent children less important than Charlie Kirk?

May these flowers help some to find a moment peace in a world of too much chaos.

America will never be Great Again until Donald Trump is impeached, convicted, and removed from office.

Republicans: Tax cuts for billionaires are more important than healthcare for the poor children, or food for children. Republicans are authorizing huge additions to the National Debt to finance tax cuts for multimillionaires and billionaires who contribute to them.

George, a Jack Russell Terrier saved five children from a vicious attack by two pit bulls in Manaia, NZ. Much smaller, George courageously defended the children, barking and rushing at the pit bulls to protect them. He was so severely mauled in the fight. He was awarded the PDSA Gold Medal. 😭

Last night, Donald Trump took us from a shadow/proxy war that has been killing Americans, Israelis, and Sunni Moslems, for decades into direct war with the source of all the chaos. I do wish we didn't have a drunk Fox News host running the Pentagon now. Competence matters. It always has.

Military parade fun fact: The army soldiers marching in the parade outnumbered the spectators by about 2 to 1.

Well, the parade is over, and the dust has settled. Only about two thousand people showed up on the Mall to see Trump's circus parade. Meanwhile the No Kings rallies brought out several million Americans across the country, even in deep red states. That is a giant FU to Benedict Donald.

A peaceful moment near the Potomac River just outside Washington DC. A reminder of peaceful places in turbulent times.

The best government money can buy. NYT: Dinner guests who paid up for Trump’s crypto dinner “said that they attended the event with the explicit intent of influencing Mr. Trump and U.S. financial regulations.”

Chrysanthemums have a peaceful beauty about them.

Nature creates beauty. It remains for us to take a moment now and then to appreciate it.

Passion Flower Clematis - Just a little beauty to punctuate your news reading. It was fun to take it.

This:

Trump Swore to: "...faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." Now he doesn't know he is required to adhere to the Constitution? Scary part is maybe he really doesn't.

Kind of funny to me that JD Vance's eye liner makes him look like a drag queen. Same for God Emperor Cheeto, and his pancake makeup.

Every time we get a Republican president, he drives the economy off the a cliff. Every. F---ing. time. It has happened enough so you would think that any idiot could see the pattern here and vote against yet another economic calamity. But noooo... Here we go again.

Trump wants to spend 100 million dollars on his birthday parade. Last week he killed research to cure childhood cancers to "save money." How does that even work in his mind?

Trump pulled funding for legal representation of unaccompanied minors in our immigration courts. Yesterday I read about a 4 year old holding her plushy toy while a judge said to her: "You are representing yourself before the this court..." Want to help? Start here: supportkind.org

Happy Easter to Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde, who asked President Donald Trump to be merciful to the powerless. At it's best the Church speaks truth to power.

Trump tells his Evangelical lackeys that he is "...the second coming of God on Earth. He's actually more like the second coming of Judas on Earth. I wish I had made this up, but an anonymous contributor did.
