A lesson to be learned here

Taking away Federal funding from PBS & NPR is the moron trying to eliminate journalistic independence. Especially non biased. I read what they are federally budgeted for is about 1%. DOGE has increased the debt more than that.

AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care? There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.

Yes! Love Masterpiece and PBS

This is the way.

He is now floating the idea of using the military in the streets of the US, if he is able to achieve that agenda, I want to remind every service member who reads this: You took an Oath to the Constitution, not a man. Your duty is to uphold the Constitution, not the man.

I feel so bad for this family.

Raccoon and cat have breakfast and a third guest would like to join 🤗

AOC: We heard that we should take your word that Medicaid will be protected — that we should trust you that no one is going to be affected by this. But as a woman, the word was given that my rights would not be taken away by the Supreme Court — and that wasn’t true.

A better copy!

Hi. Please stop using the word “deported” to describe forcible, extrajudicial overseas rendition of natural-born United States citizens. Natural-born US citizens who have not been denaturalized cannot be “deported” under law. DHS’s authority to “remove” anyone exists only for aliens. An explainer:

Me too

This is my Illinois native wild plum tree. About 8-9 feet tall now, they only hit a max of 20 feet tall at full maturity. Spring is here!

Absolutely no spine.

The good news is that the constitution provides ways for Congress and the Judiciary to reign in a power-hungry president. The bad news is those people are all scared of him.

Republican Lisa Murkowski is saying what her fellow senators are afraid to say: “I’m oftentimes very anxious about myself using my voice, because retaliation is real.” Please pardon my smugness, but you created this authoritarian monster and now you’re terrified at the price to be paid.

Watch every second of this fiery speech last week by Letitia James. THIS is why Trump is going after her.
