Favorite person in the news this week...Jack Smith...hands down! Stupidest person of the week...Schmitt...hands down!

Today I received a voter registration form with a return envelope postage paid. My state of Washington is making sure our system of mailed ballots with either drop box or return mail option is free and clear of administration interference. Thank you for protecting my right to vote!

It is so hard to concentrate on movies when the female actors have a spiral cord of hair across each side of their face. What's that?

In my little city just south of Seattle, in the park next to my building, a pretty big watch party to cheer on the USA team happened.

Trump and the fake news...more and more news controlled by billionaires...Trump should be happy...these are his people.. .strange times.

Hard to believe this morning that Congress funded ICE again when most Americans want ICE abolished. Democrats and Republicans agree that immigration needs to be handled differently, fairly, Constitutionally, and efficently. Congress let us down yet again!

I want to say something meaningful about Trump's terrorist slush fund, but the concept is so bizarre and so totally illegal that I have no words. I sincerely hope that the country I love can survive this disgraceful period in our history.

Is it just me, or do others not trust posts with obvious text errors? From misspelled words to wrong choice of words to simple grammatical mistakes, I wonder if these posts are from other countries. Surely, people read their messages before posting!

I think Robert F. Kennedy, Jr is a nut case, but I sure do like getting rid of ultra processed food. How is it possible that he can be so right about food and so wrong about vaccinations? Creeping into my brain is the possibility that the Epstein elite want lots of us to die.

If the Speaker of the House refuses to convene the House, Representatives can remove them and elect a new Speaker. A few Republicans is all it would take to get rid of Johnson and get Ammendment 25 rolling.

Millions of people protested yesterday. The NYT Newsletter this morning said, 'Thousands of people took part in "No Kings" rallies across the U.S.' I think it meant to say "thousands of protests were held."

I am surprised that most news sources are failing to mention that if Trump bombs the civilian energy infrastructure of Iran, he will be guilty of war crimes. I guess, with so many war crimes going on, that's not of intetest.

The "We the People Ammendment" would reverse Citizens United, the SCOTUS decision that led up to the madness that is now upon us. Before it, our representatives worked for us while now they work for corporations. We can reverse that mistake. Support the ammendment!

I'm not seeing anything about the US not refining the shale oil it produces, preferring the heavy crude it imports. Trump keeps saying the US doesn't need oil, because we have plenty. Does he not understand how refineries are set up in this country?

Kristi Noem was a disgrace today. It should be easy to impeach her based on her testimony today. Come on Congress...do your job.

I support the policies of the Democratic Party and long to see Democrats in Congress stand up for them. I did not watch Trump's SOTU message, because I am a proud citizen that refuses to pay respect to blatant lies. The fact that Democratic congress members did sickens me.

As a child, I remember believing the planet was going to be destroyed by nuclear bombs. We practiced duck and cover in our school's bomb shelter(the cafeteria). My dad designed a bomb shelter for our property underground stocked with a year's rations(he never built it). My luck might soon be over.

"Softer touch?" Does that mean not murdering innocent citizens?

The DOJ lied about the Minneapolis murders. The administration lied about the Minneapolis murders. The FBI lied about the Minneapolis muders. We all saw videos of what happened. Seems to me, the liars are all impeachable. Let's do it!

So breaking international laws is all about controlling oil deposits. Our elected administration doesn't recognize that the planet will not survive unless we get off fossil fuels. This shit is crazy! Do these guys really not want a world for their grandchildren?

Where can I find the deleted video of Trump's naughty journalists list?

Idiocracy, the movie, is so spot on! Why had I not seen it before? On Netflix!

Is there anybody in the administration who can stop the insanity of our Navy ships killing innocent people in the Caribbean?

In the words of Pete Buttigieg, "there is a stink to being associated with Donald Trump," commenting on the results of yesterday's elections.

Is anybody else bothered by the term "working class?" In my mind, everyone who holds a job works. How many people support themselves on passive income? White collar/blue collar, laborer/office worker...these mean something. Working class means nothing.

Online I keep seeing the vulgar video showing Trump in a jet plane. I thought it must be a poor attempt at satire by some Trump opponent. But it looks like he really did post this video resembling an eighth grade boy's dirty joke. Why? Is he insane?

What a wonderful demonstration today in West Seattle for about a thousand of us afraid of being squashed by the crowd downtown in the Seattle Center!

So the party that is ramping up enforcement personnel to unprecedented levels is about to force a shut down that will remove their pay. Somehow, I don't think those guys are willing to work for free.

Bobby Kennedy Jr's tan makes him the darkest person in the room who isn't black...ironic considering the far right's blatent racism. My dermatologist would warn the SECRETARY OF HEALTH about the dangers of skin cancer.

More beautiful, innocent children killed by gun violence. It's not about Democrats or Republicans; it's about Americans obsessed with a constitutional right to own guns. The fact is that if you own a gun for protection, you are much more likely to be a victim of gun violence than if you do not.

The news this morning talked about how the number of people registering as Democrats has severely dropped. It didn't mention how the number of people identifying as Independents has surged. If unhappy Repulicans and Democrats joined forces, we could win our country back.

If my state of Washington did some fancy gerrymandering, we could turn our two national house congressional republican seats into democratic seats...do what it takes to defeat the fascists.

Mary Ann Newton @manewton.bsky.social · 08/08/2025

The electoral system in the US makes a rural vote worth more than a city vote. Any redistricting that makes my city vote equal to my farmer friend's would not be gerrymandering. It would be a step toward achieving a country where "all men are created equal."
