OMG! In Comey's motion to dismiss for vindictive prosecution, he points to others who have lied to Congress that were NOT prosecuted. Number one is JEFF SESSIONS when he said "I have been called a surrogate at a time or two, but I did not have contact with the Russians." 1/

When Trump announced 4 days ago randomly that India agreed to stop buying Russia oil, I was surprised because Russia is their largest supplier, we are still in a trade war with India, and their govt has said nothing about it. Turns out he just lied and made it up. Shocker.

I agree. My town forbade us from protesting by not giving us a permit. Threatened to arrest us if more than 25. We did different locations. Super red state! We still had 160 total. Everyone was thrilled but I was disappointed since our population is 90,000. We did get lots of thumbs up/honking.

Of all the photos and videos on social media, the ones showing massive crowds, hundreds of thousands of people in NYC, Boston, LA, DC, etc. … it’s this photo of little Highlands NC that does it for me.

OK, so our "Secretary of War" currently has two big priorities: (1) murdering innocent fishermen in the Caribbean, and (2) endangering the lives of commuters in Southern California.

Perhaps, we are seeing one of the downsides to having a drunk TV talk show chatterbox running our military.

A pink rose gradually unfurls, pale petals at the outer edges and deeper, almost red towards the centre. When it was in bud earlier in the week, it was deep red. The background is green and leafy.

Good morning! Just a few dahlias left, including this ‘Crazy Love’. It wasn’t the best year in terms of quantity, but they’re still as lovely as ever. 🌱
