Reminder that I AM LATINA AND PROUD. I am the product of immigration - my grandmother was undocumented and entered the country from Mexico as a baby. My mother was a fierce, gorgeous Latina woman of Mexican and Spanish descent.

Folks don’t miss a beat 😂

The slogan "Run For The Border" was used by Taco Bell from 1988 to 1992

VOTER: “But people will die!” (if you kick them of Medicaid) ERNST: “Well, we all are going to die.”

When impartiality becomes inconvenient, just call it bias and cut the mic.

Bertolt Brecht said it. (“Only the dumbest cattle vote for their butchers.”)

Why do such posts keep appearing in front of me again and again? 😃😁

How justice 'works'.

JONI ERNST: When you are arguing about illegals that are receiving Medicaid benefits, they are not eligible CROWD: People will die! ERNST: Well, we all are going to die

Is it just the ones who are inside someone’s womb? Asking for a friend. FFS.

GOP Sen. Joni Ernst responds to voters saying that cutting Medicaid will kill them: “Well, we all are going to die.”

‼️‼️

Absolutely everybody has had their eyes opened to the blatant racial bias in our Media by the response to the Liverpool attack, who was a dangerous terrorist until he was found to be white. Then he become a Company Director, happily married and living in a cul-de-sac with 3 kids

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

We are governed by a lunatic

As much fun as the TACO memes are, don't forget what that stands for: TRUMP ALWAYS CHICKENS OUT. It would be a shame to ignore the chicken memes that are there for the taking. Here's a little Starter Kit you might need. ENJOY!

Memorial Day is when we honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Carl Sagan speaking at MIT in 1987 on lowering our C02 emissions. Apply these words to any technological problem our world faces today and it holds up.

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

Christian Nationalists pretend that the United States was founded as a Christian nation, but the Constitution never mentions Jesus or Christianity. Not even once. Instead, it bans government promotion of *any* religion. Don't be fooled by their lying propaganda.

Today, I was denied access to seeing my constituent, Mr. Kilmar Abrego Garcia. If there is nothing to hide, cut the crap. Let his lawyer and I check on him.

Every dog walk is a clean up. In the past few days, lot of litter at the fabulous Little France Park, less at the awesome Burdiehouse Burn Valley Park and at the lovely South Gilmerton SUDS Park. All left a little cleaner than before and my little helpers don’t mind. #pawsonplastic.

On the anniversary of his birth, remembering the phenomenal Peter Cushing (1913-1994). An actor of style, intelligence, and meticulous preparation. Best remembered, today, for his work for Hammer, he was a truly versatile performer and a fine comic foil for both Laurel & Hardy and Morecambe & Wise.

Sadly I did not know this for the first 55 years of my life. They do not teach you this. This is absolutely true. And we should honor all of them this Memorial Day and always 

Wishing everyone watching #WalkingWithDinosaurs2025 right now alongside myself loads of fun and wonder. Especially the kids who watch their first "live" #dinosaur documentary! 🥰🦖🦕 Big thanks to all who created this for us. And now - enjoying it with a nice glass of red... 🍷

I don’t know whether I’m more blown away by the cynicism of “just adopt whatever position is popular, dummies” or the naïveté of “public opinion is an easily discernible monolith that polling is good at capturing and translating into political positions.”

Well payed, Harvard, well played. Harvard offers FREE American Government course.

Solar activity picked up today with an impulsive M2.2 solar flare at 20:23 UTC from AR 4089 located in the Sun's southwest quadrant. Given the impulsive nature of the flare, no CME was associated with the event, and besides a short-lived radio blackout, Earth felt little effect. #heliophysics

I don’t think it’s a particularly hot take to say the person who posted a timelapse of themself playing GTA V on the interstate in their Cybertruck should be in prison

Here is the official Harvard University website! www.harvard.edu Here is their # if you'd like to speak to someone there!! +1 617-495-1000 The link to the Free Government courses is ... pll.harvard.edu/subject/gove...

JUST-RELEASED GEORGIA TEEN Ximena Arias-Cristobal: “Even having the right paperwork doesn’t mean anything anymore with the presidency we have now… just being Hispanic you’re a target.” More: www.timesfreepress.com/news/2025/ma...

My best friend. The love of my life. I’m grateful we’ve had so many big days together. Happy birthday MK, and here’s to many more!

lol I just got momentarily hysterical thinking about the fact that the New York Times got its managing director for communications to confirm on a Saturday that it is standing by its reporting that young women in China have tiny hands and this is why Apple has its factories there

Oh I always wondered why all the top surgeons are small nimble women… @nytimes.com, this is shameful garbage

it's worth remembering that pretty much every person On Here is some kind of communist relative to the general population, a fact i am reminded of every time i talk to my family about politics

Believe it or not, all three of these fish are the same species… the bluehead wrasse. Wrasses are protogynous hermaphrodites, meaning they transition from female to male over the course of their lives. Each phase can look radically different from each other as evidenced here #coralcitycamera

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.  Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

West Point grads got some rambling advice today on selecting a trophy wife after their second divorce from a draft dodger in a red campaign hat before he hauled ass to play golf.

Some guy on Twitter made a point of announcing that thousands upon thousands of men are descended from rapists, and we women "aren't going to like it when [they] stop asking nicely." Which, you know, surprise surprise brother, but you're also not going to like it when we stop refusing nicely.
