Definitely not my first but there were a lot out there who were at their first, including this fabulous, sweet and shy girl of about 14 who said she âhoped we could all make the horrible stuff better by fighting together â. Warmed my heart. It was a good day.

How much time do you think we have to get a Covid vaccine before RFK takes it away completely?
Unrelated⊠how was *your* NoKings Day?

And I feel like thereâs no way to catch all the small towns, either. I was in a very small town today and there were at *least* 500 people there protesting. And thatâs not even including all the cars and trucks passing by, honking and cheering with signs and flags. It was great!

But, these curb cuts end up helping others like kids on bikes, people with strollers, elderly individuals, etc.
What was originally designed to help people with disabilities actually ends up helping everyone.
So letâs stand up to protect these laws because they are here to protect and help you.

And letâs talk about the âcurb cut effectâ.
Curb cuts are those ADA required ramps at the corners of street sidewalks that all people in wheelchairs and people who are blind and use white canes (thatâs what the bumps or lines in the pavement at curb cuts are for) to more easily cross the street.

And sheâs a shitty, racist human being who looks like she never bathes. Go find a bar of soap, lady⊠and maybe wash your mouth out with it while youâre at it.

Yep, that was a major reason in our state and serving large rural areas.

đŻ! I am also very concerned about that.
And hereâs an example not a lot of people think about⊠cuts to broadband programs that are helping rural communities get access to internet services.

Yep. Staying focused on the good work we can do for as long as we can do it.

Itâs really not fun at all. Itâs pretty stressful and people I know from multiple states are expressing the same concerns with the exact scenario you describe.
Weâre being kicked while weâre down.

The federal government takes over the command and control of the National Guard units during times of federalization.
Note that they havenât been officially federalized in CA yet⊠yet.
comment in response to

From a mil friend.
No, once the National Guard is officially federalized, the state loses control over it and it becomes part of the federal armed forces. The president can then deploy federalized troops, even without consent of the state governor.

Letâs talk about how state budgets are being impacted by federal cuts. Things like human services, public health and environment programs, voc rehab and unemployment insurance programs, workforce centers, VA programs, libraries, etc. Iâve had two cuts so far in two months with more coming.

Thank you. I was going to say the same thing.

G-PERS. UK plane. I thought it was super cute. Wish I had a photo of it.

And I say this because nearly all news outlets are exclusively reporting on arrests instead of the bigger picture. This is not balanced reporting. Youâre generally a good reporter. Help provide the full picture.

Can we get some focus on the fact that, again, another city had largely peaceful protests & out of 1000s of people (or 100s, depending on reporting) a mere 17-18 were arrested?
Even the mayor is blowing this wildly out of proportion and itâs hurting the 1st amendment rights of peaceful protesters.

Great minds. I did the same.

Thank you for your support in all of these states. And for all of the help during Katrina and Rita. That was a personally devastating time for me and my family and FEMA was so critical to helping us get through it.

I think between MSNBCâs sudden update a little while ago about the list of cities where Nat Guard is being deployed, and this video here⊠yeah, you can pretty much guarantee it.

We really need to be careful about what we share. Yes, cops often break their own already busted windshield in order to drive the vehicle back to the station. Hereâs a video reporting from 5 years ago about this same scenario.

Cops have done enough damage w/o conflating things.
