A reporter should hold up a map of the Great Lakes with numbers on them and ask Trump which one he's just purported to rename.

But the government doesn’t have enough money for school lunches or Medicare prescription subsidies. The United States values killing people in other countries over keeping people alive in our own.

This little beagle was dumped near my house. She smells horrendous & has major fleas and only one good eye, but she's the sweetest pup. We spent the day taking her to the vet, posting her on local FB groups, and finding her a foster home. We call her Frankie. Just wanted to share her sweet face.

Of course Pete Ricketts doesn’t support the Railway Safety Act. He’s taken $112,250 from Union Pacific Executives, $101,258.78 from BNSF, $101,000 from Union Pacific, 20,000 from Norfolk Southern, $15,000 from CSX, and $4,000 from the Association of American Railroads.

Trump is scheduled to deliver his pack of lies about the 2020 election on Thursday. Eight days later, the White House Correspondents' Association plans to welcome him as an honored guest at its dinner. It's not too late to cancel the damn dinner and stop being quislings in service to a dictator.

Maybe they should just practice locking the door and turning off the lights and remaining silent while hiding under their desks…or is that just appropriate for kindergartners?

Allow me to explain what's happening here. The biggest bipartisan housing bill in 30 years is about to become law without any help from Donald Trump, who ran on lowering costs for the middle class, because he's mad Congress wouldn't help him suppress the will of voters.

This is Honey. She's a half-blind senior who survived a bear attack while protecting her family and farm. “She protected our chickens and our family," said her mom. "She’s our little savior." Honey has been treated for her injuries and is on the mend. We're awarding her our highest honor, a 15/10

Less than 2% of Americans feed the rest of us. Our country is not treating our farmers with respect. Sweeping tariffs have been disastrous to our farmers. We gave Argentina a $40 billion bailout, while our farmers were sitting on mountains of soybeans they couldn't sell.

We need to pass a House rule or law that requires them to work a certain number of days to get paid. Since Mike Johnson took over these people hardly ever work. When they finally come back after weeks off they work 2 days and he sends them home for 2 more weeks. It’s ridiculous.

I think it’s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks. IE: they don’t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against
