In other Markwayne Mullin chicanery, he’s blocking the promotion of a Pentagon recommended three-star general. The general was the last U.S. soldier to board the final U.S. military plane out of Afghanistan and Mullin is using him as a political pawn. Absolutely disgraceful. #OklahomaBlueDot 🔵

For me, the thing that knocked the wind out of me with this election is that I dared to believe America would get it right THIS time, that America was ready for a Woman President. It hurt having that blind faith in neighbors, friends, and strangers smacked out of me. Dammit, America. 😞

Currently listening to Ruth Ben-Ghiat's book Strongmen. Other than wishing it was titled something more like How Athoritarian A$$hats Get in Power (and Refuse to Leave), it is a very scary kind of good book to be reading at this moment. I feel like I can anticipate what is likely to come next.

You don’t bury an ethics report that would exonerate Trump’s pick. You don’t skip FBI background checks unless his nominees have something to hide. See what they’re doing? Please tell me you see what they’re doing.

When I said that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. being DHHS Secretary would kill people, you all understood that I was being literal, right? To underscore: Kennedy Jr. will actually kill people. Mostly children. And only a contemptible monster like Trump would position him to do that and think nothing of it.

This X account has been given a grey checkmark, verifying it as an official government account. It also only accepts resumes be DM's, which are solely open to verified X users who pay Elon Musk. This level of corruption is staggering.

I hate having to worry about follower counts. My nonprofit lives and dies by how many eyes are on it. I handle all PR for it so we can get donors. And without donors, we cant help the women at or coming out of the prison. Follower counts even matter on alot of grant applications. It’s a crazy world
