Trump says if Iran had a nuclear weapon, they should "take out Los Angeles. Take out San Diego." His rallygoers cheered. Cheered! Madmen following a madman. I remember films of Hitler's followers at rallies with their dazed, adoring eyes. Their minds were gone. It's happening again. Vote!

Trump illegally withholds Congressionally approved funds from blue states, causing states to have to sue for the money. open.substack.com/pub/defiance...
open.substack.com
Trump just told Americans: vote MAGA, or lose federal aid. His threats will backfire.
The president says he’ll withhold money from states that don’t vote MAGA. That’s obviously illegal, and it’s pissing off a country already sick of his corruption.

Originally, at the end of this message, I wrote "and me too!" but it put me over the space limits. I'm just as biased as reporters. I try to base my bias on knowledge and research as much as possible though, whereas some reporters have different motives. 🙂

Same story presented fr different viewpoints.So much going on in the world, news agencies have always had to pick what they want to print/post.It's not just that selection process, but HOW they tell the story that reveals any bias.This is true of left & right news reporters. bsky.app/profile/meid...

Every time I read this, I think of Bernie. Rather than retirement by age, how about retirement by mental acuity? Certainly McConnell would fail that test, but just as certainly, Bernie would pass.

Chewy is great! When my 21-year-old cat Snowball died, they sent me a dozen roses. I'll never forget it. So sorry about Loki. I had a Loki who died too. Devastating. All we can do to feel better is to know that they had a really great life while they were here. ❤

7,000 - let me repeat that - 7,000 YEAR OLD carving destroyed to build the "border wall." Older than the pyramids. The oldest dated geoglyph in the Americas. It reminds me of Afghanistan's destruction of the Buddhas of Bamiyan, which were about 1,500 years old. This is like bulldozing Stonehenge.
