To paraphrase Abraham Lincoln - Two hundred and nine years ago, our forefathers founded a new nation on this continent—born of liberty and committed to the ideal that all people are created equal. (1/3)

Let’s be perfectly clear… When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is ‘the role of Congress’ to remove him from office… Full stop. Any Questions?!

I attended the Spring Grove School Board meeting last night. Board Members actually stated they voted for budgets in the past without actually knowing what was in the budget. Then lectured the audience about how to run a for profit business, as if the education of your children were a business.

Today in York! Bamboo and Beetlejuice!

There are 32m small businesses in the USA

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: It has come to my attention that several agencies are now offering WiFi for you to use with your PERSONAL devices. If I were you, I would NOT use that WiFi. I suspect it's a way for DOGE to monitor your personal communications.

I’m not saying everyone needs to do *this*. But @booker.senate.gov figured out the biggest best thing HE could do right now. And then he did it. Everyone needs to do *that*.

Interesting - We have a Google Audio system at home. In the morning I tell Google "Good Morning" and it provides the weather and a news summary from channels I select. The 1st channel is NPR. 1/4

It's simple. Everyone in the US enjoys the protections of the Constitution - even visitors. So if someone commits a crime here, you give them due process here. You charge them here, try them here, and sentence them here. You don't deport them to an offshore torture prison.

The reason that the US is locking up tourists for weeks in hellish detention centers rather than letting them book tickets back home is because the detention centers are owned by corporations. They are charging the taxpayers fortunes to cage these people, and making bonanzas off their suffering.

When the orange Orc King declares a National Emergency it will never expire… martial law is coming.
