I'm glad to look at the map and see so many dots. However, my niece in Nebraska wanted to go and the closest one is 5 hours away in South Dakota. I wish I could go out there and get her to go with me.

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

This post is offensive to fucking liars. He's so much worse than George Santos and Elizabeth Holmes ever could be.

Rick Wilson is the only person I would watch fight on the White House lawn. He could body all of them. lol

I really appreciate your videos on that channel. You're one of the people that is always calm and reasoned, some of the other hosts get so worked up that they use hyperbole. I understand it, but it's kind of exhausting so I appreciate how you explain things clearly and calmly. lol

Such an unrealistic take shows the nature of the problem.

I will be there. I am so scared of violence because I'm disabled and I cannot run away or use a weapon if needed, but I'm going anyway because it's worth it.

Netanyahu has literally betrayed his country and taking them way back in the eyes of the world. The damage in World standing he has done is going to take generations to recover from and I think a lot of Israelis know this.

That's not realistic or possible though. In California, for example, there are millions of Republicans. In Alabama there are hundreds of thousands of Democrats. You're presenting a false dichotomy and it shows juvenile, limited thinking.

Why can't they be pulled over by the police? What if random masked people drive a black car with no plates and kidnap children or whatever?

Even articles that they want to be freely read are often still behind a paywall. I asked about it once and apparently it's a tech issue where it defaults even after they try to make it free. It was honestly above my head though, I'm not a tech person. I was just surprised that they answered. lol

I think this survey will obviously be red widely among federal judges and that means the next time they get it in their inbox more of them will freer to respond. I'm glad the NYT did this.

Lindsey Graham doesn't.

What makes no sense is that even if they were trying to target Democrats and Democratic interests, they shouldn't say that out loud, especially if they want it to be upheld. They are just so dumb and undisciplined, all the damn time.

Obregonia Jones @obregonia.bsky.social · 1d

Yes, even if it is wrong, dismissive of children, and harmful.

This never happened to me, but I used to work with providers where it did happen, with things like people having restrictions for epilepsy who altered the letter keep driving. The ethics committee always told us to "disclose and document."

Obregonia Jones @obregonia.bsky.social · 1d

If you're a medical professional who writes a letter clearing somebody for work or placing restrictions and they alter the letter before turning it in to their employer, you may have an ethical to speak out if you discover this, especially if it concerns public safety. Walter Reed, pay attention...

How do you protect yourself while standing outside? This is what I worry about for my family more than myself. It feels like we are sitting ducks.

For that to be your only issue, you have to be pretty privileged. Things like healthcare and food are so much more important to most voters.

If there was anybody that I would NOT want angry at me, it would be this crazy bitch. She's unhinged.

So much privilege in that statement, which is ironic.
