There isn’t anywhere I’d rather be than paddling my kayak, biking a trail, and hanging out with my family. Politics have tried to rob our joy. Life is too short, live fully and find your joy.

By accepting Trump’s anti-Black premise and regurgitating the narrative that equates anything Black as DEI, the NY Times has become part of the propaganda machine

An actual government employee with an actual security clearance would be removed for openly supporting (& very likely financing) a foreign neo Nazi political organization in an election.

Have you noticed the press is not calling this the Trump-Vance administration? Don’t let Vance escape your attention, even though he isn’t making headlines—he’s still dangerous.

Take a moment to process this: Musk has had his private thugs—who aren’t public servants and don’t work for the government and operate under no known standard of conduct—as _federal law enforcement agents_. When a CPAC host told him his army of security is “enormous,” he replied it should be bigger.

I don't think we're talking enough about the fact that the pressure to remove DEI from science means women die.

ALEXANDER: Fraud is a crime. Have you turned over evidence of fraud to the Justice Department, and when should we expect to see those indictments? LEAVITT: It's a clever question

Whether in the courts or by way of pressure on the Trump Administration, DEMAND evidence of these claims of fraud and waste. You’d think Trump would be running to Congress & to court to show what they’ve found, and yet…crickets 🦗

“No single person in the history of our republic has been more unworthy of the trust and support he has received from voters than Donald Trump.”

This is such a great example of what its actually really important to bring the heat to elected Republicans: they are massively soft crybabies who will 100% come unglued when faced with even the slightest bit of pushback from voters.

We recruit individuals and we retain families. Cutting a major source of military spouse employment and injecting politics into the senior ranks is going to lead to a huge loss of mid-grade talent. This is all absolutely devastating to national security. www.cnn.com/2025/02/20/p...

In 1994, Ukraine agreed to transfer nuclear weapons to Russia and became a party to the Treaty on the NonProliferation of Nuclear Weapons, in exchange for assurances from Russia, USA and UK to respect the Ukrainian independence and sovereignty in the existing borders. Just saying.

Last night MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell said Trump was the first U.S. president to “switch sides during a war.” That aptly describes Trump’s betrayal but it can’t begin to convey the depravity of what Trump did in throwing our ally overboard and lying about every facet of Putin’s criminal aggression.

“After we’ve discriminated against, deported, or disparaged all the immigrants, the gay and lesbian and transgender people, the developmentally disabled, the women, and minorities. Once we’ve ostracized our neighbors and betrayed our friends… what comes next?” - Gov. JB Pritzker
