“As humans, we’ve TWO things to do during our time on this Earth. Care for our fellow humans & care for the environment the species was placed upon to sustain survivability. If those who wish to be our leaders do not embrace that simple premise, they’re NOT fit to be leaders.”

Redford. Keaton. Goodall.

We owe it to them and to each other to keep going. To build what they imagined. To protect what they loved. To live as they lived, truthfully, fearlessly, fully.

Yep. Barbecues are fun, but we want to hear about what your intentions are toward deep cleaning that snake pit of corruption called the Texas Attorney General’s office!

Wow. How delusional can he be? He did speak one truth. He isn’t going to “heaven.” He has a nonrefundable one-way ticket to the center of Dante’s Hell, where he will meet so many of his “friends.”

Alas true. The Republican party is completely gone now. The only ones who don’t know it are THEM.

The federal food program helping more than 1 in 4 young children access fresh produce, milk, and formula will run out of funding next week.

Over 5 million children could lose food assistance — all thanks to the Trump-Republican shutdown.

The cruelty is endless.

Mueller, She Wrote @muellershewrote.com · 3h

NEW: Trump meant to send a Truth Social DM to Pam Bondi about indicting his rivals. That sounds like official business, so I'm filing a FOIA for her DMs, plus those of five other cabinet members. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/my-latest-...

My Latest FOIA: Trump's Truth Social DMs

Recently, Trump posted a message to Pam Bondi that was meant to be a direct message. I want to know what other official messages he's sending to cabinet members.

Oh yeah! She’s super cool. We are more than sisters. We are best friends. We talk multiple times on a daily basis and have coffee over the phone every morning before work. I get to gloat about finally being retired & she gets to complain about the “Bitch Clique” at her office. Every office has one.

Well, the French know how. All we have to do is open up a history book and read about what they did from May 5, 1789 to November 9, 1799.

If it’s not okay to be anti-fascism anymore, is it still okay to be pro-democracy? 🤔

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

Plump and the GOP constantly lie through their teeth

Plump's Lil' "Keebler Elf" Johnson thought it would be a good idea to take questions from the public. A man accused him of lying about illegal immigrants draining Medicaid. Johnson challenged the man to "look at the documents," so Jen Psaki did.

Pammy Jo seems to be getting way too far ahead of her skis. Threatening state sovereignty and its leadership?? What happened to “states rights?”
