President Zelenskyy: "It is absolutely obvious that Russia is actually trying to fool the world - fool America& others -prolong the war further. That's why pressure is necessary…Yesterday's meetings in Vatican and Rome confirmed that our partners understand what's going on."

So are we still more upset about Diverse, but qualified, yet presumed unqualified hires, than DUI hires? (Asking for anyone who cares about US National Security) Pete Hegseth needs to go for the safety of the United States & the allies that we still have.

This book is so incredibly relevant right now and worthy of your time.

Here's the lowdown from allergy doctors on how to get relief, from which medicines to use — and how to best use them — to tips for keeping pollen out of your home.

TY @ericmgarcia.bluesky.social Speaking or nonspeaking, employed or not, married or unmarried, #Autistics are not tragedies. We are human beings who deserve lhuman rights. We are disabled, not disposable. The current head of HHS, however, we could do without.

Hands and heart three sizes too small..

It’s been almost 250 years since we organized a political revolution to overthrow a king and constitute a new democracy. Maybe we’re overdue.

The reception they earned

He really understands who Trump is

New statement from International Children’s Enforcement: This person claims to be a “president,” but look at his hands. Anyone can see these are the hands of a small boy, and the person is thus a liar who should clearly be put away in permanent time-out.

#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1971: About 900 Vietnam veterans and several Gold Star parents begin a five-day demonstration in Washington, D.C. On April 23, about 1,000 veterans threw their medals and other items onto the Capitol steps. On April 24, 200,000 rallied on the Washington Mall. /1

Today House Republicans, cheered on by the richest person on Earth, passed a budget framework that will cut support for the poorest people in our country. All while cutting taxes for corporations and the wealthy, and massively increasing the deficit.

This is how those of us of a certain age first learned about April 19, 1775. Still inspires. youtu.be/Y6ikO6LMxF4?...

This from @jdcivicscience.bsky.social nails why small town, red America is not turning on Trump.

On the bright side—at least farmers won’t have to suffer through all that “socialist” government money anymore.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

Sen. Elizabeth Warren announced she & Senator Wyden are introducing a bill to end the state of emergency which has given the president the power to set tariffs and control the stock market. Contact your Senator at (202) 224-2131 and ask them to vote that there’s NOT an economic emergency.
