October and November are great months to plant for spring. Tulip, crocus and daffodil bulbs can be planted either in outdoor pots using peat-free compost, or directly in #flower borders. You can get creative, layering multi-colours for a blooming rainbow effect #BloomScrolling #Gardening #Spring

Tightly packed bright red and pink tulips against a leafy green background fill the frame

Ossoff: "The question was about the stewardship of tax dollars. And as we stand here today Rep. Collins is under federal investigation for the illegal misuse of tax dollars. For illegally funneling public money to his violent staffers girlfriend."

My kids have measles, I can’t afford diesel, I lost my job, and my country just lost a war to Iran. But at least now I can watch firing squad executions on TV.

That's the problem, Mike. It's not just that you've hired half the Third Reich to staff your Congressional office, and you have promoted neo-Nazi content online, it's that you're robbing your constituents to subsidize your donors.

El-Sayed: "The reason he's flip-flopping has nothing to do with policy, nothing do with your costs. It everything to do with his sagging poll numbers ... He's doing an ad drinking a Labatts, talking about the Red Wings, pretending he was not for this the entire time. Be serious, my guy."

At this stage it doesn't matter to me if this guy is cosplaying. I want a person who talks like this and then promises to back it up to be the next president. If there's somebody who winds up being more convincing than him in the next year or so, I'll vote for that person instead.

Troy Jackson: "The gentleman's name was Johan Sebastian Guerrero. He had a 3 year old daughter. The only mistake he made that morning was going to work. Because Sen. Collins is not willing to stand up to Donald Trump, he was murdered in the streets of Biddeford for doing nothing wrong."

Ossoff: "I absolutely believe that Mike Collins would have been among those standing in the schoolhouse door ... Here in Georgia, where we are so proud of our legacy as the cradle of civil rights, I'll be damned if I'm gonna let a man like Collins win this race and represent GA for the next 6 years"

Don’t forget: billionaires are using their grip on social media and the news to convince us that peaceful protests don’t work, our vote doesn’t matter, and that both parties are the same. They’re spending billions on it.
