Fort Knox not only holds our nation's gold, but also holds the ORIGINAL Declaration of Independence, The Constitution, and other ORIGINAL documents of our founding fathers. There is a VERY good reason people aren't allowed to tour it, and a VERY GOOD reason Trump & Musk should never come near it!

Every disabled child has a RIGHT to public education in America! They're now killing the funding for our most vulnerable individuals!

The best daily exercises to follow. Simple, easy, and the most rewarding in the end. And, as a bonus, these exercises come with an instruction manual filled with testaments to their value in your life.

I'm an advocate for disabled persons. I not only speak for the community in which I serve, and disabled persons themselves, but I speak for all of the mothers & fathers across the US who are or have raised a disabled child. Please fight for the right of every disabled child to get an education!

If the helicopter pilots, the flight crew on the jet, and the people working in the tower were all white men, then can somebody explain to me how DEI played any role in this tragedy? Asking for the American people.

A picture says a thousand words.

America is in grave danger! Flags should be flown upside down for Trump, but still at half mast in honor of President Carter.

He did NOT take the oath with his hand on the Bible!!!!!

Does anyone else notice that Donald and Baron are the only ones onstage watching the cameras rather than bowing their heads in prayer? Like father like son.

As a Nebraskan, I have never understood why our state always votes against our values and our economic gains. Our motto used to be "The good life", but they changed that to "It's not for everyone". This is going to tank Nebraska's economy...then they'll blame the Dem's. www.npr.org/2025/01/17/g...

When temps are in the teens or less, farmers tend animals, do chores, sling hay. Firemen fight fires, children walk to school, mailmen deliver the mail, soldiers fight the fight & not one of them are as weak as Trump taking the oath of office inside because he's afraid of the cold. Grow a pair, Don!

WTF? Where does he come up with these ideas? On the toilet? Rename the Gulf of Mexico "The Golf of America"??? Why? Doesn't he always like to try to slap his name on everything? Oh, I see...maybe that's it... "The Bay of Pigs" must have already been taken!

A reminder on how fragile our democracy is, and how hatred can rattle the foundation for which this country was founded. As we come upon the anniversary of that horrific day, let us take a moment to remember where we were & what we felt watching the live events unfold before our eyes. Never forget!

Merry Christmas everyone!!!

Worth a read. FDR is the reason a polio vaccine is available today. ... and the reason Kennedy should never come near the Department of Health, or any other department. www.fdrlibrary.org/polio

As a mother & advocate for the disabled, I'm appalled with tearing down the Dept of Education, which serves thousands of disabled children all across the US. Special Ed is essential for those with special needs. For many disabled children, the Dept of Education is their only support system.

Nebraska Democrats Nelson Gala with Jamie Harrison, Ben Nelson, and Gwen Walz. I was so proud of my disabled son to be selected as a delegate for our district. He has taken the loss pretty hard, as have I. But we will continue the fight for freedom and democracy.
