It did NOT have to be like this. He could have been impeached TWICE. He could have been convicted of numerous crimes He could have been resisted by his party He could have been reined in by SCOTUS AND we could have had Kamala Harris as President. It did not have to be like this.

Philadelphia PA!! ICE RAID ALERT 6/8/25 #FUCKICE

Fight fiercely, @harvard.edu (With thanks to the late, great Tom Lehrer!)

1 in 5 Americans depend on Medicaid for health insurance, but they don't all know they're on it because it may go by another name (e.g., Medi-Cal, Apple, BadgerCare). I identified the name of each state's Medicaid program. If you or someone you love is in one of these programs, call 202-224-3121.

55 years ago today: “4 dead in Ohio.”

Don’t. Bang. On. The. Glass! NHL etiquette 101.

Chef bought a Harvard Tshirt. Not because he went to or aspires to go to Harvard. As he says “a small act of support for Harvard and defiance.” Yet another reason why I love him!

“This is a moral moment. It is not left versus right, it’s right versus wrong.” This is the rallying call. Thank you, @booker.senate.gov

I am so glad to be in the same side in this battle with @therickwilson.bsky.social ! Unbeknownst to him, we’ve been in opposite sides of battles for MANY years and he’s devastated my side throughout. But when it comes to fighting for democracy, he’s an unrelenting ally & the warrior we need.

“Do not forget. Do not forgive.” Carry this mantra forward until they’re ALL out of office.

Going to bed because tomorrow’s another working day. To those of you watching the joint session speech, I can only quite @jvl.bsky.social :” Good luck America.” You’re gonna need it tonight.

THIS is the epitome of peaceful protest! Speak the truth and force them to show their cowardice and bullying.

Sitting in an infusion chair for 3+ hours isn’t fun but I’m grateful for all the research done by NIAID funded organizations who developed this protocol. And grateful my battle with this disease didn’t start under the current administration.

Very convincing win! #EAGLES

@therickwilson.bsky.social Anyone know what Susie Wiles is doing on a daily basis?

Democrats in the Senate: Shut it down. Shut it all down. No votes without unanimous consent. Stand up and say “No! Not on our watch.” If you can’t do, don’t expect us to vote for you whenever your term is up. SHUT IT DOWN NOW.

Some day, @therickwilson.bsky.social and I will be back on opposite sides of the political spectrum. But today is not that day.

I’m a 70 year old white person and I don’t want to live in an all white America. I love living in a diverse community with people of all nationalities and life styles. My neighbors are wonderful people of all ages and identities and I appreciate this diversity every day.

When I asked our boss last week the plan for when tariffs take effect and the impact on our business, his dismissive response? “Trump is just a bully. Nothing will happen.” Gonna be hard to not say “Told you so!” tomorrow.
