Since we have two juvenile running in our country, I will respond in kind: takes one to know one! Neener Neener Neener!

And that is why they got rid of DEI. As one of the few female upper managers incorporate America, I was constantly told that the only reason I had the job is because I was a woman, and they were checking a box. The truth was that I was only one of 125 in the same position who was actually qualified.

This!

This is great - planning to get this!

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

You can just fast forward past that white supremicist and focus on the truth. Bam!

This gives me hope

Inspirational!

Oh, Canada! This Washingtonian neighbor from right across the border loves you!! #canada Canadians Have Given The United States A New Nickname After Beating Them In Hockey - BuzzFeed

I have a few historical cookbooks, a couple of first editions and a few re-prints. I just heard about this one on the radio. And it excites me! It’s of historical significance, especially for the African-American community. I hope my friends check this out.

I don’t know how this got past the checkers - they do have a tough job making sure nothing inappropriate gets through. But I feel sorry for the other people in the photo who are looking forward to taking a souvenir home with them. I can guarantee we are going to be on the lookout for these asshats.

This is an excellent template and should be disseminated widely

Exactly!

Not only will this move threaten people’s lives, it will threaten their livelihoods - many small businesses rely on postal services to deliver their goods. Our economy will tank and it will be the Republicans’ fault.

This is happening all over the country. We’ll have people camping who don’t know anything about forest fire prevention and everything will go up in flames. Not to mention the toilet’s overflowing. Maybe this will be a good time for Orange man to visit the national parks. Nature has its own karma.

I’m sure Boebert knows all about this, since her office has a subscription to ProPublica…

Canada, you know what to do! Don’t let that orange monster fool you. Most of us south of your border are rooting for you. The gloves come off and the cowbells are ready. Let’s go!

And last time the king didn’t reside on our soil. Maybe the orange monster needs to be reminded what happened to kings during the French revolution - not that I’m advocating violence. I’d rather he and his cronies get jettisoned via a one-way jet to mother Russia.

Zelensky has more chutzpah then all of the Republican congress members combined. Which isn’t hard to do because they’re all spineless. If their position as a congress person is more important to them than doing the right thing then they don’t deserve the job. Their constituents need to take action.

Good morning! Love conquers hate! We need as Americans to remember who are💪💪💪

Be not afraid The UK’s GDP is 50% bigger than Russia’s and GDP per capita three times as great (as with most EU countries). The economic power of the EU alone (without the UK) is EIGHT times larger than Russia. The EU is a superpower. Russia is not. And should not be treated like one

The only people trying to get rid of Social Security are those who never paid into it and don’t need it. I agree with Warren Buffett. Tie the deficit to their salaries and things would change. That would be running the government like a corporation. 🤦‍♀️

I’m a proponent of “the punishment should fit the crime”. So when this is all over, let’s put this guy in a room with measles, mumps, rubella, TB, Covid, polio, smallpox, Ebola, etc. With no plan to let him out. No matter how much he begs.

One of the many reasons I respect Senator Murray from my home state of Washington is the fact that she’s never forgotten her roots. Unlike Trump, Musk, and Ms Green, she’s wasn’t born with a silver spoon in her mouth. youtube.com/live/jQLP5Ib...

Until a MAGA voter burned, charred, singed, immolated, enflamed, smoldered, lit, smoked, ignited and struck a match to them.

Today we officially went into full constitutional crisis… substack.com/@bethmcdonne...

Blocking the gauge test cap using the Crofter’s Slipover chart - using a different weight of yarn so need to make sure my calculations work out before I start the actual Slipover. I value my time more as I get older. Spending time up front saves time in the end.

The only conclusion I can make about the Republicans’ willingness to confirm these traders and imbeciles is that they participated in NeuroLink trials and have been completely brainwashed. youtube.com/watch?v=hN4B...

Los Angeles peeps—spread the word about ICE. We won’t know for sure until it happens, but better safe than sorry. Be prepared.

As long as members of Congress are able to make money off of insider trading, the corporations/companies they own, and/or the wealth they grew up in, nothing will change. Members of Congress should have a strong knowledge of constitutional law and not be millionaires. youtube.com/watch?v=cQXl...

It’s actually not fraud as much as an example of his ignorance. He hasn’t invented a damn thing and makes money off the backs of those who have. And his little minions are not experienced enough to understand legacy IT systems. This should be the straw that breaks the camels back. #endmusksreign

Zelensky recognizes Russian propaganda when he sees it. Too bad a third of our population couldn’t see it. Or should I say, refused to see it for what it was.

I just turned off the automatic updates on my phone - no way I want any of musk’s germs on my device! It may render my device powerless at some point lol but I’d rather have that happen than give that asshat anything for free.
