My mom was a great artist. Happy Heavenly Mother’s Day, mom. You’re painting with the best.

www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat... DOGE is slacking off with this guy.

www.aol.com/trump-says-d... Wow, but not surprising.

It’s official, FROM THE DUST (formerly The Volunteer) will be my next book! It will be released in April 2026 by Mulholland Books/Little, Brown and Company. Cover reveal coming soon.

kfor.com/news/local/w... All my years in law enforcement and I, or any other member I know, ever made a mistake like this. We knew everything about the house we obtained a search warrants for, including the occupants. This is unacceptable.

Dear Canada- Please accept our deepest apologies from all decent Americans embarrassed by the obnoxious trolling from our man-baby-in-chief who is lacking in both intelligence & any impulse-control whatsoever. ❤️ from your neighbors below, 🇺🇸 #MakeAmericaNormalAgain

HAPPY INDEPENDENT BOOKSTORE DAY. I have many favorite indie bookstores all over the country, but my favorite is Square Books in Oxford, MS. Without indie bookstores, readers & writers alike would be in the dark. Support your fav indie bookstores. Even if they're far away, order from them.

Senators and Representatives in Congress, how about you stop posting about all the impeachable offenses and actually do something. I’m sick of the posts. I want action.

Then they drunk-texted some war plans www.zmescience.com/ecology/anim...

www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/heg... Maybe DOGE should take a look at this.

www.aol.com/defense-chie... Has to go!

Hate mongering is far from Christian.

RFK Jr. is very loud and very WRONG about Autism. 1. It’s not a disease 2. There are thousands of people with Autism Spectrum Disorder who pay taxes, have jobs, can use the bathroom on their own, and are thriving in life.

He needs to be removed!!!

www.aol.com/19-old-calle... Just why???

Incredibly hard watching this country and this world fall apart.

All you reporters out there - ask the right questions. Can the administration show proof that Kilmar Abrego Garcia was affiliated with MS 13? Also, ask if he is still alive? He probably is not! The White House will not answer either of those questions. Guaranteed. Report on that.

www.aol.com/trump-hosts-... Tragic, but more than likely because Garcia was murdered in jail.

Up early. Regretting it.

This is Scott – a CDC researcher working to help screen coal miners for black lung. His entire department was eliminated last week, leaving miners across the country at greater risk of sickness and death. I’m fighting back.

NEW: The Fourth Circuit UPHOLDS Judge Xinis’s order to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the US by midnight. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

What in the hell happened to us?

www.huffpost.com/entry/jd-van... This man, who is far from being a Christian, is just pure evil. Bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia home!

Hey, hey, HEY! FOG AND FURY just received a STARRED REVIEW from @kirkus_reviews! I can't wait for y'all to spend some time in beautiful Haven, California. Watch your backs, though... www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews...

What will historians say about this time?

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... I do not know how to explain this move. Moronic?

apnews.com/article/val-... Another sad loss. Gone too soon.
