They are all just thoroughly evil! Is there a single, minute, redeeming action they’ve taken? No! I agree with you…Black women have consistently been targeted and it’s just getting worse.

This is just a symptom of the dumbing down of Americans. If it’s in print or MAGA said it, it must be true.

It must have retroactive capabilities….indeed, a very clever drug. I wonder why they are going after Tylenol now. What did Kenvue do to piss off Trump and RFK JR.

Why are the pedophiles always protected??? What about the children they terrorize? Why do people normalize this disgusting behavior? They should all be facing prison! This administration and MAGA are depraved. I believe that all have chairs engraved with their names waiting for them in hell!

I was visiting Gettysburg and couldn’t help but think that we may be headed this direction once again as the repubs call for war after the Kirk killing. But aren’t they the ones doing all the killing?

I’m visiting Philly and Williamsburg where our constitution was created and where they fought and died for the creation of our country. It’s sad that our current administration is working to totally destroy all they fought so hard to create. I hope they all end up in prison!

…and that is why the repubs are so desperate to steal or cancel the midterms. I’m grateful for the likes of Newsome and Pritzger who are fighting back.

Of course they did. After all they are a criminal enterprise that swims in a swamp of depraved souls.

Thank you for putting a face to this brilliant strategy. That it’s a Latina woman makes it all that much sweeter!

What is tragic is how many will believe the lies and deny the truth. Critical thinking is not something these folks seem capable of doing.

I had a similar idea…we split into two countries along red and blue lines. Repubs in blue states have to move to red states to have rights associated with citizenship and vice versa. The blue country will be a democracy and the red country will be a dictatorship. We will all be happier.

That’s okay….we’re getting a golden ballroom and a fascist dictator to replace them. Oh yeah, and tax cuts for the poor, suffering billionaires.

I bet they are so very proud of themselves, but history will likely judge them quite differently. Their legacies are not something to celebrate, but to study and to avoid enabling in the future. If only humanity was that smart.

It’s interesting that whatever democrats do is lawless and they need to be hunted, yet whatever republicans do is sanctioned by God himself. The corruption and evil run deep in the Republican Party. All those that support them are just advertising the depths of their personal depravity.

Surf School - I only had my phone with me. When I saw the bright shirts and boards against the aqua and blue ocean I had to take a few shots. #hawaii#surfing#photography

I had to move fast to line up this shot and just hoped my camera settings would be good enough. I liked how it turned out. #hawaii#Oahu#photography

The former mainstream media orgs are not news organizations any longer. They are agents of the Trump regime, sycophants to authoritarianism and destroyers of democracy. I don’t think we’d miss them if they all went under.

We are seemingly a very depraved nation. I’m thoroughly disgusted. I hope this entire administration ends up in prison after we throw them out! Unfortunately Trump has immunity.

They out themselves every time they speak. When they point the finger, they do so in an attempt to distance themselves from what they are attacking. What’s really confounding is that when caught, their base suddenly normalizes it. The party of law and order put a felon in office after all.

Went to DC to see the Women’s Vietnam Memorial. They served, they sacrificed, they died and were spit upon and told they never served upon their return. They earned this tribute just as the men did and deserve this memorial. Thanks to all the women who serve!

She possesses the qualities Trump loves - corrupt, hateful, racist, stupid (vs. ignorant) and devoid of all humanity and humility.

Anyone who thinks this administration had any inclination at all to serve “the people” is delusional. They only serve themselves and the rest of us…well we are insignificant and invisible.
