Art makers, if you are looking for a sign that you should make time to make art today, let this be it!

Waiters and hair stylist should pay taxes. Period.

Time to throw every quiet Democrat out.

A 74 YO black woman was denied a Real ID b/c her mom was denied access to a hospital. You just have to allow me this I TOLD YOU SO. If this woman is deemed undocumented, what are her children? Before you answer, remember that last week 2American children were deported with their undocumented mother.

Police can choose to enter your home with no reason to believe that you are housing illegal residents, for the “purpose” of looking for them. While there, they can take your possessions. You may not be able to get them back. Expect carnage in certain people’s homesteads to ensue.

The GOP wants some more viewpoints on college campuses, perhaps they should stop telling their flocks that college doesn’t matter.

Trees never disappoint Because we accept them as they are And wonder how they became Instead of questioning what they did not

24 GOPs on the judiciary committee just voted to let Trump exile US citizens. This was unimaginable to some of you just a few weeks ago. Now he has permitted police to enter any home without a warrant & with impunity. It’s just a matter of time for some of us. Stop saying “we” will get through it.

…and it’s only going to get harder. Best to get your feet wet now.

Trump went out of his way to release the Silk Road guy, but wants Abgego Garcia in a hostile jail for life becasue he was loitering in a parking lot.

@maddow.msnbc.com Rachel, please know that it does not matter what the gap is between approval or disapproval ratings of Trump as long as that approval number is in the 30s. If it stays in the 30s, that means his base is unmoved. This is not the feel-good segment it seems that you think it is.

The US and El Salvador have a bi- lateral extradition treaty. Since we can ask for them to send us criminal suspects we want to bring to justice, why can't we ask for the return of an innocent who we placed there?

Why isn't anyone in the government just having someone drive Garcia to the American embassy/ consulate there?

A MORAL CRISIS “The rule of law is being trampled. Innocent people are being disappeared. Court orders are being ignored. If you claim to love this country—if you believe in the Constitution, due process, order, and justice—this must be your line in the sand.” Take 3 minutes. This is important.

Why isn't this all over our mainstream news? #Trump #resist #media

What if Jay Gatsby is a man of mixed black and white parentage? My 2017 book "Jay Gatsby: A Black Man in Whiteface", explores this idea. "Fitzgerald himself said that even the most enthusiastic contemporary reviewers failed to understand what the novel was about. Read this to see what was missed.

Don't tell me Mahmoud Khalil standing with Jewish people for justice for Palestine is antisemitic when you pardoned the Nazi terrorist wearing a "Camp Auschwitz" shirt as he violently stormed the Capitol to hang Mike Pence & kill Nancy Pelosi. Shame on the MAGA regime & every silent politician.

When my daughter sent me one more New York sublease to review, I settled in for what is usually a bumpy long ride, moving around sentences and adding clauses, etc. This time, though, it was elegant and short and absolutely right. So I asked her who wrote it. Her answer was ChatGPT. We are doomed.

The White Lotus 3: lots of churning in the blender, but ultimately nothing to drink.

What does Trump mean when says he does not have the power to get immigrants, US citizens and green card holders back from El Salvado? When I cannot get something back that I have given to another, it is because I have sold it. Have we now sold people to El Salvador?

“Have some math! … bush league…so disappointed… tariffed countries who actually had dropped their tarrifs against us… cratered the stock market and gave us nothing” He is a buffoon and a known liar with limited persoective, a pot of grievances and greedy LITTLE hands. What did you expect?

I'm no good with patterns. Can someone help me out here?

People keep looking for the method in Trump’s madness, but really he’s just like an “off with her head” queen, painting roses, red one minute and white next.
