Any time I'm given those Trump dollar coins as change, I'll ask for bills instead. I want nothing to do with them and don't want them stinking up my wallet.

VOTE this November. Do it any way you can and take other voters with you to the polling station. Go early or go on Election Day. Worried about mail-in ballots? Don't use them if you're uncomfortable. But VOTE. Don't let this administration intimidate you.

This is why I blather on about phone banking for Dem candidates/getting out the vote/getting people registered to vote. Committing to even two hours a week makes a difference!

Can you please run against Marsha Blackburn and become my governor? I know of no law prohibiting being governor of more than one state at a time. We need less stoopid and more progressive here in Tennessee.

Republicans appear to assume that all their new districts will fall in line and vote Red. They've clearly not taken into account independent voters and MAGA refugees who are disgusted with this administration. Let's help minorities and GOTV in these midterms!

Republicans are assuming their new gerrymandered districts will all vote red. They've clearly not taken into account independent voters and MAGA refugees. I'm convinced Dems will have the last laugh even after states are redistricted. Let's help minorities and GOTV!

Pedro Sanchez, the Spanish prime minister, has slammed the decision to attack Iran as “playing Russian roulette with the fate of millions of people." (Aaron Boxerman, NYT) Sr. Sanchez is correct. -Can we impeach Trump and Hegseth already??

We have eight months in which we can ensure a Democratic majority in Congress. Volunteer two hours a week to help get people registered to vote. Come October, help organize trips to polling stations and Get Out the Vote. Your two hours WILL make a difference!

Why are we permitting bombs to fall on children in Tehran? Why did this person in the White House and his advisors think it was such a good idea to endanger U.S. service members with acts of aggression against Iran? SHAME ON TRUMP, HEGSETH, AND VANCE

Yes, but they've received death threats and are scared snotless to name names. I suppose there's a way to testify and remain anonymous, but there are Epstein associates who wouldn't hesitate to squelch any victim and her testimony.

I sincerely hope Renee Good's partner and family sue the stuffing out of ICE, Jonathan Ross, Tom Homan, Kristi Noem, and Donald Trump.... and that the judge throws the book at all of the defendants. Shame on all of them, and may Renee's haunt them all until they drop dead of heart attacks.

Venezuela invaded for reasons other than what we've been told; no Congressional movement on helping Americans retain health insurance; it's a new year and we're all still exhausted from last year. Am I here? I'm feeling a little existential.

Because boat sinkings and narco killings off the coast of South American countries is patriotic, and Hegseth can take requests like Casey Kasem in American Top 40. Couldn't you just DIE, this is so ridiculous.

Aftyn Behn's election loss in Tennessee's 5th district tonight should not be discouraging. She shrank the margin by 50% and clearly demonstrated the need to cease ridiculous gerrymandering. Am not predicting a long career in politics for Mr. Van Epps; what. A. Snore.

It's a losing battle, m'dear. She sank her own boat with the ill-advised inclusion of the word "radical" in her TV campaign ads. Of course the opposition has had a field day with that. But I'll start throwing pebbles on her headquarters windows here and see what I can find out. BRB
