2 Mentally-ill men will kill us all!!

My daughter received the memo yesterday asking her to resign or accept a buyout.

Stupidity can kill – and this admin is nothing but stupid.

She is an audiologist in Chinle, AZ. That makes her a "government employee."
Want to start your day totally uplifted? Listen to these amazing singers!!
I’m so proud of the talented Leo High School Choir and all they are doing to represent the South Side of Chicago!

one of the worst days of the crumbling Trump presidency: loses In indiana, loses in Kilmar Abrego Garcia case, loses in Tish James grand jury, loses in House vote to override union busting EO, and FBI embarrassed in inability to answer basic questions about ANTIFA (which is not an organization)

My Senator is right! The U.S. military killed 2 men who had surrendered. Disgusting and dangerous.
Gallego: "This administration, since they started striking these boats illegally, has been very happy to show their snuff films . Now suddenly they're willing to show the first hit but not the second. Why? ... they're afraid the public is going to see the military killed 2 men that had surrendered."

Go get 'em, Jasmine!!!
Rep. Jasmine Crockett has made it official. She's running for the US Senate in Texas – while former Rep. Colin Allred ends his own campaign for the US Senate nomination in favor of attempting a House comeback bid.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

Today is Pearl Harbor Day. Japan's sneak attack killed over 2,400 U.S. military and civilians. Please take a moment today to recognize their sacrifice.

THANK YOU Chief O'Hara! More like this please!
Police Chief Brian O’Hara has delivered a blunt message to his department: If an officer witnesses ICE agents using illegal force and fails to step in, they will be fired. 👏 👏 👏
Minneapolis police chief warns officers: Stop unlawful force by ICE or lose your job
Chief Brian O’Hara says he’ll fire city police officers if they don’t intervene when immigration agents use unlawful force.

A bit more decorating for the holidays today. The tree isn't up yet but we have lights and ornaments and are taking hot chocolate breaks. :-)

Happy Friday to those who celebrate (I do.)

I honestly don’t know what’s more concerning. That the president of the United States keeps falling asleep in public or that everyone around him is too scared to wake him up.

If you see John Roberts in person, be sure to tell him he’s a worse Chief Justice than Roger Taney (pronounced “tawny”). That’s a nerd burn that will hit him where it counts.

It's been almost two weeks and they still haven't released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

Yep - I bought nothing today too!
Day 6: No Cyber Monday

These companies who continue to aid Trump must understand that they are nothing without workers and consumers. Buy Nothing.

Trump must be removed, he is unfit to be president and deserves nothing but a cell for the rest of his life.

Since I haven’t seen anyone mention this: When the U.S. commits war crimes it puts our troops in danger also, as it gives a green light to other countries that they can do the same to us
