I still don't understand how this isn't the headline everywhere. If Biden or Obama said the words, "I'm allowed to destroy the country" Fox News would be giving tips on where to buy pitchforks and torches.

Two months ago a Democratic lawmaker, her husband and their dog was murdered in their home and there was no moment of prayer in Congress, no lowering of flags, a Republican senator openly mocked their death and other Republicans just ignored it.....

Darkly amusing that the president who pardoned Ross Ulbricht also says illicit drugs are such a threat to national security that he can use the military to assassinate suspected drug dealers with no due process.

The worst single-day crime spree in modern Washington history, of course, took place on Jan. 6, 2021. Trump issued no order to the National Guard to intervene -- Mike Pence did -- and later pardoned the perpetrators.

Naming and shaming Klan members was how the good people of Buffalo drove the Klan out of their town in the 1920s. “Doxxing” racist terrorists is good and it works!

The Trump administration is ending 988 Lifeline’s LGBTQ+ service—which has received over 1.3 million calls, texts, & chats since 2022. The Supreme Court also just upheld a law banning all gender-affirming care for minors. This is just plain cruel and wrong.

A question about a #roadtrip: Headed to NYC for the weekend of 6/20-23, but still deciding whether to go north to NE for seafood, or south to Virginia for battlefields/presidential sites. We have to be back in Detroit by the following Thursday 6/27. Any thoughts?
