I am embarrassed for this country & deeply disappointed in the congress members that voted for the flawed & traitorous cabinet members of this administration. I fear for the direction our country is headed in. Proud liberal living in a Red state. No DMs 🚫

What moment? All of us getting conned yet again by the building of a scaffolding? When the workers had clearly been told to not remove the letters today because they had to stay up for the orange goblin's birthday on Sunday, even though that meant violating a court order? We keep all getting conned.

1. Tatiana Schlossberg, the daughter of Caroline Kennedy and granddaughter of President John F. Kennedy, reveals that she was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia just hours after she gave birth to her daughter, and that she has less than a year to live. Schlossberg is just 35. (Link below)

Two photographs are shown side by side with a block of text. In the top photograph, Tatiana Schlossberg sits in profile facing left. She has very short gray hair and wears a bright red sweater. Soft warm light falls across her face, highlighting a somber, reflective expression. In the foreground, out-of-focus red winter berries partially obscure the frame.

In the bottom photograph, Tatiana is seated beside her husband, George Moran. She is smiling widely and leaning affectionately against him, her hand resting on his shoulder. George is dressed in a blue suit and patterned tie, smiling warmly. They sit at a dinner table with wine glasses and flowers, appearing joyful and relaxed.
