Proud Boys are back at the Capitol. Here they are near the first Jan. 6 breach point, around Peace Circle.

“Killing Time” by M.C.Beaton and R. W. Green. I adore Agatha Raisin and have been reading this series for over 2 decades, but this book was a disappointment. It was not the AR of old, I fear we have lost the charm of the old books. #my2025reading #BookSky #BookSky📚 #Books

“The Second Mrs. Astor” by Shana Abe. I do not know enough about the life of the Astors to know how accurate this book is, but I thoroughly enjoyed it! #my2025reading #BookSky #BookSky📚 #Books

Some days you need a cup of tea, some days you need a pot of tea! Love my Brown Betty teapot!

What the what

Arresting someone for calling you fascist seems an excellent approach to proving their point.

A level of petty that I can really admire. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

I need this IMMEDIATELY!!

🙌

I want every Democrat to sound like this. Meanwhile I'm listening to the sounds of (congressional) silence.

"They're putting persecuted Christian refugees in camps in the jungle" sounds like something Glenn Beck would accuse the Obama administration of doing and yet now it's a pillar of the Republican agenda.

A cup of tea can be so incredibly restorative.

fantasizing about a world where an opposition congress responds to trump’s attempts to usurp legislative power by defunding the entire white house staff

City schools will be closed tomorrow (Thursday) too.

It took less than a month of Trump in office for the official White House account to say the quiet part out loud.

The White House follows up on President Trump’s Truth Social post where he referred to himself as a king with a fake magazine cover in the style of Time Magazine.

Most cars are driving slowly down our road but one SUV keeps passing other cars, in an obviously no passing zone. I have seen this same vehicle do it twice in front of our house, what a reckless, jerk of a driver.

Love to see Cardinals in the snow!

The forecasts were anything from a trace to 2”, 2”-4”, 3”-6”, etc. But it also started snowing earlier than predicted, I’m wondering if this is one of those storms where everything winds up completely different than predicted!

“..and re-establishes the long standing norm that only the President or the Attorney General can speak for the United States when stating an opinion as to what the law is.” Goodbye Judicial Branch, it’s been a good run.

what the actual fuck

It sounds like mental health was the big culprit in the shooting at the Crozet Harris Teeter yesterday. This post by the sister of the shooter will give you a different perspective of this tragedy. This is absolutely sad for the families of victims AND the family of the shooter. 💔🙏

We are just sprinting towards Gilead.

I am not making this up: Republicans have introduced legislation… to increase your bank fees.

Goodnight beds, goodnight feds, Time to rest your tired heads Goodnight shoes, goodnight blues, Take a break from following the news Goodnight fears, goodnight tears, AltCDC will still be here Rest well everyone, we'll see you tomorrow!

To be clear: the United States Government deployed this family to a country with substandard healthcare with the promise that help would be on the way if they ever needed it. Now, Donald Trump twice denied this woman a potentially life-saving, embassy-requested medevac.

This is horrifying

🤞

so far going anti-woke leads to less money and planes falling out of the sky

Wasn’t expecting a shooting at Harris Teeter in Crozet. 😳

omg

😄

This is scary AF

The FAA firings will continue until they stop all these planes from crashing

Random acts of kindness is always a good idea!

I’m confident my teens could make smarter decisions than this administration.
