Hot sauce or salsa is so important on a taco or burrito or sope or etc not because of the heat or flavor it adds but because you need the acidic vinegar to balance the fat of the beans and meat. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

The GOP convicted felon has launched a war on the American people & our constitution. We have guardrails to stop a rogue president. But are our lawmakers? Happy to be part of it & obey, in the foolish belief that THEY will be spared. Wait for the final irony. #Opposition #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

What if I told you that "cutting funding" and "cutting the deficit" are not the same thing? In fact, it's possible to cut funding SO MUCH that the debt INCREASES. That's because if the economy contracts, lost revenue could exceed the savings from cuts. That's why idiots shouldn't be in charge.

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.
