Rick Scott thinks it's okay to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt for exercising his constitutional right to avoid a perjury trap. I guess ol' Rick forgot about all the times he did the same after his company was caught committing Medicare fraud. www.rawstory.com/rick-scott-f...
As CEO of Columbia/HCA, Scott himself invoked the 5th Amendment 75 to. Es in a 2000 civil deposition while the Co faced a federal investigation that led to a $1.7 billion settlement - at the time the largest Medicare fraud case in US history

I'm a #knitter trying at my advanced age to learn to #crochet. My 79 year old teacher, who has been crocheting longer than I've been alive, tells me to practice, so I'm making little stitch samplers every day. Progress is slow, but I'll get there. 🧶❤️ #KnitSky #CrochetSky

If you have abandoned the teachings of Jesus to follow Donald Trump, you need to stop calling yourself Christian.
Luke 4:18-19: The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because He has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight to the blind, to set the oppressed free, and to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.

Here's my email re #SignalGate to @senkatiebritt.bsky.social. If I get any kind of substantive response, I'll post it. The Keystone Kops in charge of our defense and national security need to go! @indivisible.org @indivisiblebham.bsky.social
Sen. Britt, what are your plans to address top level defense and security personnel using the Signal app to discuss war plans? Will you call for the firings of Michael Waltz (who added reporter Jeffrey Goldberg to the chat), Pete Hegseth, Marco Rubio, Tulsi Gabbard, John Ratcliffe, Scott Bessent, and others on the chat? Are you still comfortable supporting Vice President Vance? Everyone in the chat should have known that it was inappropriate and dangerous to our national security. They have proven they are unfit to serve. Please DO SOMETHING! And to the staffer who will have to respond, I already have the 8-paragraph fluff piece non-reply letter, so please don't send me another one. Thanks.
