Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

Trump and Elon's DOGE cuts are forcing Georgia parks to indefinitely close right before a holiday weekend. Enough is enough with these reckless cuts. Georgia families deserve better.

Republicans have given themselves a set of mutually exclusive constraints for their upcoming tax-and-budget bill: cut taxes, especially for rich & corporations not expand deficit not tick off their constituents, who would absolutely be hurt by Medicaid/SNAP cuts not raise debt limit

I previously shared this. It’s still relevant, and I’m disappointed in SCOTUS for alleging otherwise. #transrights

I’m not sure what Easy Spirit paid for that jingle many decades more than I care to admit later, but I’ll be damned if that wasn’t some of the best money spent in advertising. Right up there with: “Just do it.” Every time they so much as cross my mind. 🎶 Looks like a pump; feels like a sneaker. 🎶

My filter appears to be broken today. A colleague just said I reminded him of Sheldon Cooper because I used the word “beverage.” This makes Sheldon (and me) funny. I replied that Sheldon was a caricature of people like me and that I didn’t find him very funny. #glovesoff

I accidentally started yelling when I called my reps to demand the resignation of RFK Jr. All three times. I did not mean to start yelling, but I did. All three times. At this point, I cannot contain my rage. “Oopsie.”

A WSJ study has determined that the US Government under Donald Trump has spent $154 billion more than the US Government spent in the same period under Biden. A considerable part of this relates to Trump, including the $3.3 mm he spends from the Treasury for each of his weekend golf vacations in FL.
