Listening to different groups of voters who voted exactly for who Trump is & now feel betrayed, I can’t help but think about how they spoke of him & how they called non Trump voters names, told us we were stupid & so on. We were telling them not to fall for him. We knew “they” were are all of us.

From the mouth of the president of the United States. Hey, Jake Tapper, this seems like a better book than your Biden debacle. Me thinks he is not familiar with the Ten Commandments that the Project 2025 guys (who he doesn’t know lol) are cramming into public schools.

There are more people at the National Book Fair in DC than the (ridiculous) car race around the mall. Metro was pretty empty. There are hundreds in line to hear and see Kate McKinnon. #NationalBookFair #DC #VoteBlue

Here is my most recent email to my useless Senator: Can you by any chance get the inspectors hired back that Musk and DOGE got rid of? Because right now, I’m not sure what I can eat or drink anymore. I think things were better before DOGE.

I guess the guy in The White House is learning things aren’t that easy to solve. Diplomacy requires negotiation. Big problems don’t get solved with “I alone can fix it.” Damn shame he was elected.

What’s happening to judges across our country who are doing their jobs is terrifying. An attack on the judiciary in this country is an effort to destroy all that is good. Write to your representatives and senators to demand better behavior. Loomer doxxed a judge’s daughter!

Outside Lafayette park - this is as close as one can get to The White House. Really sad. I suppose temporary buildings being built on the mall are for that race. The grassy areas on the mall are fenced off. Many benches have been removed. #DC #ETTD

Trump should spend the day in the World War II museum in New Orleans. Without a doubt, the information would go over his head. #NATO #AmericanPride Maybe a field trip for Congress? SCOTUS?

Look to Louisiana,specifically New Orleans. A test site for Project 2025. New Orleans taking on AG Liz Murrill. Louisiana top prosecutor just got indicted on 16 charges on felony intimidation & malfeasance.The thing is, she is part of the Trump scaffolding. She doesn’t have his loyalty. #NewOrleans

I managed an after school program, a family shared with us that their child identified as female but was born male. Here’s what we did: we asked simply what do we need to know. To help us understand & in that case & all future cases gave us the opportunity to learn & support kids.Kids are precious.

I’m so sick & tired about hearing money money money in politics. Louisiana has a chance to stop producing the Johnsons, Kennedy’s, Cassidy’s, Scalise’s, Higgins’. It comes down to money. In politics, you can have the best bio in the world, but if you don’t have money, you can’t tell your story.”

James Carville, the famed Democratic political strategist, said of Davis, “He has some guts and moxie. He seems to be a successful farmer, which is a pretty good profile for a Democratic candidate. His challenge will be raising money. Democrats have no power in Louisiana. In politics,

Look to Louisiana. Democratic nominee Jamie Davis won tonight & will face Trump endorsed Julia Letlow. If she’s endorsed by him, you can bet she’s an election denier, against humanity & will do what Trump commands her to do. Congratulations to Jamie Davis. Chuck Schumer and the DNC. Send the power.

I hope the person who falsely accused Pete Buttigieg of child abuse is taken to court. Such a shame. His twins had to be interviewed without him or his spouse present. Is it a political attack? Kids are off limits.

Fort Mose Historic State Park (FL) commemorates the first legally sanctioned free Black settlement in the US, established in 1738 as a sanctuary for those fleeing slavery in the British colonies. It preserves the history of this community that blended African, Spanish, & Native American cultures.

New Word: mythomaniac: a person with an uncontrollable or habitual tendency to lie, exaggerate, or invent elaborate stories. Also known as pathological lying or pseudologia fantastica, these falsehoods are often told without any clear external benefit and can blur the line between fantasy & reality.
