We have been hearing about the sneaky, semi-relevant but extremely dangerous hidden provisions in the Big Bad Bill. Here's a convenient summary of them. I just sent it to my Senators, and hope you will do the same. Especially if they're GOP, they need to know how much you oppose them.

It was quiet and cool in the woods this morning only the mosquitos where out in full force.

Happy Obama Appreciation Day 🇺🇸✨

On this day, we honor leadership grounded in hope, dignity, and class.

President Barack Obama reminded us that intelligence, empathy, and calm strength belong in the White House. 💙🇺🇸

For decades the NRA and other gun nuts told us that their guns were to protect us all from a tyrannical government. So a tyrannical government is here, they are all sitting on their asses, and the people who want gun control have taken to the streets to defy the tyrannical government instead.
Bleeding heart.

So if you suddenly try to break into Congress to murder the VP you've supported for 4 years because he won't break the law and the police shoot you, your family gets 5 million dollars?

Do I have that right, humans?
