Toni reminds us that we each hold the power to heal by doing THE work. This weekend we're committed to: - taking our dogs for a walk - checking on 2+ fed friends - making a batch of veggie soup - calling our senators re the budget (& Medicaid's risk) What about you? Share your intentions. Goodnight.

Probably no US President was spied on more by Soviet intelligence than Reagan. If what we're learning is true, then with some reading between the lines, the KGB was grooming Trump as a "village idiot" to help them spy on Reagan. No wonder his codename (Krasnov) is a surname that means "beautiful".

A black cat crossing your path is simply going where it wants to go. You should do the same, and follow your own path.

We should all applaud Judge Ho’s appointment of former Bush SG Paul Clement to present a perspective distinct from those of the indicted NYC Mayor Eric Adams and the Trumpservient DOJ prosecutor Emil Bove. Well played! www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/n...

REMEMBER: Next Friday, February 28. NOT 1 PENNY SPENT. We can do this. I'm IN, are you? 👋💙

Trump’s betrayal of Americans: He promised not to cut Medicaid—now he’s backing a House plan that slashes $880 billion from it. All to fund $4.5 trillion in tax cuts for the rich. He doesn’t care if families drown in debt, as long as he & his billionaire buddies get richer. Don’t Cut My Medicaid!

Thank you to Senate Democrats for unifying in opposition to Republicans’ scheme to punish working families. Democrats played procedural hardball and spent hours on the floor debating overnight, filing close to 100 amendments and forcing votes on 23 of them.

Important to remind Congress everyday of facts: 1. POTUS immunity to break law, doesn't make it legal. He is still breaking the law. 2. Immunity is only protects against criminal charges in court system. 3. Impeachment is outside this, it's political, and Congress has duty to uphold Constitution.
