Why hasn't the 1 call to free Abrego-Garcia happened? Either A) He can't: Mr. "art of the deal" actually can't deliver even with ALL the leverage, or B) He won't: to look "strong" Whether it's a) impotence or b) petulance, both endanger all domestically & internationally, citizens & visitors.

"Hope" This is my 2nd standalone embroidery. No pattern, just freehanding what was originally just something to practice new-to-me stitches, and it took on a life of its own. This is my peaceful place among the stressors. #handembroidery #embroidery

It's traditions like today that bring together all our branches of government to stand in respect of each other - that underpins the guardrails of our democracy. The only power that the Constitution truly recognizes is power that's capable of humbling itself before our people.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

I know this is cheesy, but I’m going to say it anyway: Don’t forget to show up for yourself. For awhile I stopped doing my long weekend runs and I’ve been back at it for several weeks and it makes all the difference. Whatever your thing is, don’t stop doing it!

“People will get sick. And, especially in cases like congenital syphilis where you cannot lose a day to treat, babies will die.” The appalling human cost of this insane exercise in gender censorship mustn’t be forgotten. www.cbsnews.com/news/cdc-std...

Bukele called himself the "world's coolest dictator." If I were a peacock, all my ass eyes would be rolling at that if this wasn't so deeply heinous, and potentially another human rights violation to add to his collection.

1/ OK, Democratic members of Congress in the US Senate. It’s time for some tough love. I am aware your pollsters and consultants tell you things like “the American people want us to work together” and “ focus on prescription drug prices in the economy.”

So Justin Trudeau is now saying the tariffs have been paused for 30 days as they implement a new border plan. Basically, after the markets freaked, Trump backed off of the threats while Mexico and Canada essentially promised to do things that they were already doing.
