Much like “no human being is illegal,” no kid is “undeserving.” Feed them all, give them all all of the books, let them see doctors, make vaccinations compulsory. Put actions behind the words that “kids are our most valuable assets.”

Kind of the way 7 frat bros from a “prestigious” university can drug and gang rape a fellow student, after texting an invite to do the same to 70 other men, and then be assigned an essay. Closing your eyes while scream-singing the National Anthem doesn’t make these things magical or happen.

When, exactly, are we going to start valuing children over profits? Over political alliances? Over misinformation? I'm so tired of this bullshit.

I just checked my voter registration status. I live in VA & they make it really easy to check your status, to register, or to update your registration. vote.elections.virginia.gov. If you live somewhere other than VA you should be able to Google "check my voter registration in xx." We got this.

Thank you for knowing the difference! I cringe everytime someone says that they're making cajun food and then list tomatoes in the ingredients. (I was married to a cajun for 20 years, and lived in South Mississippi for 10 years before I transplanted him North to my homestate of Virginia.)

It's probably also buggy and comes with free spyware included. I wouldn't download anything put forward by this administration. At this point I don't believe they have good intentions on anything at all.

All networks and news agencies need to follow suit. Orange Satan would be crushed since he adores (favorable) news coverage. And yeah, PBS is the best. Love them!

When a corporation certifies it's product as halal or kosher or or organic or anything else it's a marketing plan, not an endorsement. It's to sell more product. Period.

I'm with you there. I usually do it in September in preparation for the food I'll bring in for the holiday season. I'm a bit afraid to host holiday dinners this year. What if I make people sick? Will my homeowner's insurance cover it if it's bad? (Serious questions, not hyperbole.)

Agreed. If it's data centers they want, then put them on land owned by them. I'm sure that at least some of the land they've purchased would support data centers. I'm so tired of working myself to the bone, not to take care of my family, but to make more $$$ for the American ruling class.

I will never understand why we don't have a recall function for President. And if the President gets recalled/impeached, then why is entire cabinet doesn't have to go as well. If one is corrupt, all are corrupt, or allowed the corruption to occur. I'm just over it.

I just said to my mom that I hope the next President tears down the ballroom and rebuilds the East Wing. That the last thing I want is to pay more taxes toward something so stupid, but that I'd happily pay a few more dollars for.

How shameful that *this* is the level that we've sunk to when interviewing presidential hopefuls. Jesus take the wheel. I will ALWAYS blame Reagan & Gingrich for this mess. Their "dumbing down" of America worked so much better than either ever could have dreamed.

We (the U.S.) are losing relationships that it will take us generations to rebuild, if ever we can. How very sad. From one of the world's superpowers to sprinting towards 3rd world nation during two terms of President Orange-faced Jackass. Way to go Republicans!

A little too close for comfort (I live in Virginia.) Thankfully my entire family believes in vaccinations but nothing ever protects 100%. And of course, it's just a matter of time before the anti-vaxxers transfer the COVID "it's a government thinning the herd program" bullshit. I hate this timeline.

Youngest girl-child just spent 7 days on a ventilator b/c of a massive asthma attack that blew a hole in her lung and is now suffering with post-ICU & steroidal delirium, asthma is no joke. I think people forget it can be deadly. (Yes, those deliriums above are real.) (Yes, we live in Virginia.)

The ruling class in this country owns a combined millions/billions of acres of land. If they're so great, why aren't they building them on THEIR land?

I picked a side long ago. But I’m also old enough to know that picking the lesser of two evils is still choosing evil. When I see actions to match election promises maybe it’ll ease some of my old-timers cynicism.

Health care in this country is a joke. I've had 4 previous back surgeries (one the result of a life-threatening site infection). Now that I need a 5th I can't see the surgeon who did the 1st 4 b/c he doesn't participate with the plan I purchased for myself after losing my employer based coverage.

It just occurred to me that my youngest has no connection whatsoever to Mississippi. His father was from there, and his older siblings were born there, but Peter was born in my home state (Virginia) & only visited MS a few times before his Dad & I divorced. Kind of sad, but he doesn't seem to mind.

My Mom & I were discussing this yesterday. I'm always shocked by mass shootings b/c I can't wrap my head around the idea of someone being so hate-filled as to want to murder a bunch of a people who haven't done to them personally. Why do people hang on to hate so strongly & when do they give it up?

Has ICE agreed to comply? I only ask because they've proven themselves a pretty lawless group of people. Our friends & neighbors who are anything other than white, male, and over 45 still need to be very cautious in public places. I hope I live long enough to see then end of this national nightmare.
