I am finally back to work and finding all decency has gone out the window replaced by power hungry liars and indecent creeps. On a good note; my grandpa sold their home of 60 years and moved in with my parents after grandma’s passing. I am thankful to have his light in our lives.

Hi peeps. Have taken some time off from social media, my employer let me take a family leave of absence. My gran passed away after a long illness. She had such a wonderful life and was always cheerful until the last minute. She’s the reason I became a nurse and then a teacher of that profession.

I’m visiting my grandparents after work today and watching MSNBC with my grandma. We were both quiet and then she said; my great grandfather was a Lincoln republican an advocate against slavery. He helped with the Underground Railroad in Indiana. That’s all she said after watching the news.

There were only two witnesses in the Epstein grand jury; further confirmation that AG Bondi asking for transcript release is nothing but a smoke screen: wapo.st/3GPfVjn
wapo.st
Epstein grand jury transcripts include testimony from only two witnesses, feds say
The disclosure raises questions whether the Justice Department’s attempts to unseal the transcripts will satiate the appetite for more information.

So, we destroyed millions in food designed to feed starving children and now we're destroying millions in contraceptives obviously designed to help females in poor countries have children they can't afford to feed. This administration is so bad. #USDemocracy www.npr.org/sections/goa...
npr.org
The U.S. is destroying $9.7 million in contraceptives. Is there another option?
This planned destruction of birth control devices is part of the dismantling of USAID services — and is linked to allegations by the government that cite abortion. Critics are speaking out.

Unfortunately, I believe you're 100% correct as that's basically rule number 1 in this list of propaganda principles.
The Nine Principles of Propaganda 

1. LIE BIG Big lies work better than small lies because the masses won't believe that anyone would lie “about that.” 

2. FOCUS Don't make it complicated, ignore history, keep it simple for simple minds. 

3. REPEAT People cannot tell the difference between facts and familiarity. The same words repeated over and over will become true in their minds. 

4. BLAME never Credit the other side, always blame, debase, defame, and dehumanize. 

5. PROVOKE Outrage, fear, and resentment are more powerful than reason, logic, or facts. 

6. CRISIS Issues must be life or death, good vs evil, love vs hate, us vs them. Urgency defeats objection. 

7. EMOTION A person might question facts, but they will never question their own feelings. Go emotional. 

8. PANDER Praise allies generously, demonize all who disagree as having bad intentions or non-expert. 

9. NO LIMIT The victor's morality won't be questioned. Morality is for losers.

8 million more uninsured and everyone still on Obama Care paying 75% more. That hits in Jan 2026. If you’re poor (Medicaid) or old (Medicare), it’s delayed until after the midterm votes.

This year, instead of talking about rising drug costs or hospital charges, insurance companies were talking about federal policy, Cox says. "Pretty much every insurance company is talking about the expiration of enhanced premium tax credits in the ACA markets."

Every American should read this ACLU lawsuit about what is happening in Los Angeles and California. It is the stuff of dystopian nightmares. This is not immigration enforcement. It is positively stuffed with videos and articles documenting racial profiling on a scale unseen since Jim Crow.

Headline 1, "Americans are losing spending power, say researchers: Most can no longer afford a 'minimal quality of life.'" Headline 2, "The 10 richest Americans got $365 billion richer in the past year. Now they're on the verge of a huge tax cut."

If Elon Musk can buy an American Presidential election he can also buy a new political party. I hope he is successful because it will divide MAGA party allowing for more votes for Democrats. Look no further than the RFK Jr and Jill Stein OP and how they helped get Trump elected.

As Texas officials point to the National Weather Service failing to predict the amount of rain that caused this tragedy, it’s fair to wonder if the cuts made to the dept that many warned about played a role here. (Now add FEMA cuts & hospital closures)

Seeing some posts referring to Kilmar Abrego Garcia as being "kept safe" in jail. No one is safe in jail, fam. Incarceration strips years off people's lives and manufactures premature death. It's very important to understand this, especially now.
