So far, 26000 photos and articles that mention diversity have been removed from Military repositories. They have been instructed to remove ANYTHING that mentions diversity EXCEPT the Tuskegee Airmen. So no achievements by women or people of color will be left. Again white men did everything.

Only 43 lbs of fentanyl were seized at the U.S.-Canada border in 2024 (compared to 21,148 lbs from Mexico). So, the U.S.-Mexico border is Costco, while the U.S.-Canada border is that one free sample on a toothpick.

Spent several hours trimming all the winter kill in the yard. The bees are going crazy over the flowering cactus. A lovely afternoon.

For the last reporting period, 80% of all the people arrested for trying to bring in Fentanyl were American citizens. USBP figures.

The new Jewish Community Center in our town burned yesterday and I find myself hoping it was faulty wiring and not some fascist weirdo.

I have never been a fan of country music but my heart goes out to Dolly Parton. This woman has single handedly put books in the hands of millions of children. She is an astute businesswoman and today, she has lost her partner of nearly 60 years. Condolences, Ms Dolly.

Today, our president yelled at Press Zelinsky for standing up for his people.Trump thinks Ukraine isn't being grateful. Then on Un-truth, Trump says Z is not ready for peace. No, you idiot, He isn't ready to hand his country over to Putin or bow down to YOU. Trump is heading for WW3. holy crap.

Maeve the wonder-cat jumped on the keyboard as I was entering my password. The one she chose has about a bazillion characters. Like I'm going to remember THAT.

Did you know that 72 MILLION Americans rely on Medicaid for healthcare? The Trump Administration and MAGA Republicans in Congress want to take it away to give tax breaks to billionaires. Don't let them take away our healthcare. Let them know you didn’t vote for this shit.

If you haven't read the Mags Monroe series, give it a try. Especially if you grew up Irish Catholic in the 50s. I think Mag's Mam played organ at St Rose in Wilmington IL.

I am a newly to bluesy but I am really enjoying seeing posts that don't make me want to throw the monitor at the wall. I want my country back. I want Congress red and blue, to step up and do their job. I want an actual separation of powers.
