Donald playing golf every weekend isn't just an opportunity to ignore the problems of the American people, it is also an opportunity to rip off the American taxpayers. Here is a bill the Secret Service got for staying at Mar-a-Lago for a few days in his first term. 42 rooms at $396.15/night.

Trump signed an EO on January 20 giving Dept. of Defense and Homeland Security 90 days to deliver a joint report on whether he should invoke the Insurrection Act. Deadline is April 20. Is this on anyone’s radar?

My extended family has been discussing what to do if the federal government collapses. During the Reagan years we protected ourselves, so we know what to do now. Seems curious our U.S. senator in 1982 was Chuck Grassley.

St. Luke’s, Idaho’s largest health system, was outspoken in defending its staff during a backlash against masks and vaccines. It also sued right-wing figure Ammon Bundy — and won. Now it’s backing its doctors on the abortion front. By @audreydutton.bsky.social and @kelciemmorris.bsky.social

“Schmidt being “violently interrogated” at Logan Airport for hours, and being stripped naked, put in a cold shower by two officials, and being put back onto a chair.” Whatever happened to #abolishICE? It needs to be abolished. This is torture.

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

Within days of Brad Schimel attending fancy galas in DC, Elon Musk was posting about him. Musk is trying to buy some influence over the Wisconsin judiciary. And Schimel has already bragged about being on his knees begging for money. It's corruption to the extreme.

Trump can call me names but the truth remains. He is an unhinged wanna be dictator who is angry that I beat him in court and won't cower in fear. Now he is weaponizing the federal government against his political opponents. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.
