The deaths of both Jimmy Carter and Pope Francis leave a huge void on this earth. Deep
sadness and a hope that strong, humble moral leaders emerge, quickly.

"Our challenge, beyond putting on an indelible show, was to find a way to make our dissension clear, with dignity and creativity," writes Guster's Ryan Miller:
Why I Played the Kennedy Center
How our band made the decision to perform—and why we probably won’t be welcomed back

Shout out to AARP! My retired, recently widowed mom took advantage of their free tax prep services. From the website search to the initial call to schedule to the prep meeting - outstanding service delivery. She is so happy and we are all grateful for the volunteers. 🙏

Democrats should be worried. They are not adequately telling the story of what it takes to serve all people in our country and why it matters TO EVERYONE. Conservatives are controlling the narrative. Because they know what pisses people off and they feed off it.

Clickbait? Intentionally toss a match into the conservative tinderbox of #government animosity? Why won't they create context and interview employees and critical work (and challenges) serving in these positions? Wouldn't that serve readers in a more meaningful way?

Peculiar - we have a Gannet-owned local paper started a series of "articles" highlighting publicly available info on both municipal and school salaries. Sometimes I bite, I'm curious. 6 figures raises eyebrows. But it's just a list of numbers. More importantly, why and why now?

#Vermont, this is a neighboring district that we should be paying attention to. Support Stefanic's replacement!
As a farmer up here in the North Country, most of our potash fertilizer comes from Canada.
Higher tariffs will make it more expensive for farmers to grow their crops, which means higher food prices at the grocery store.

Ukrainian people suffering and dying for their country. Trump and Vance's performance is shameful and a tremendous disgrace for our country. Everlasting shame.
Zelensky is a wartime leader watching his people suffer and die under Russian attacks every day. To be lectured and lied to by Trump and Vance, as they defend the war criminal dictator committing these atrocities, is unimaginable agony. An everlasting shame for America.
Trump has not uttered a critical word about Putin but he and his VP publicly belittled the leader of the nation Putin invaded.

Can the current administration just completely self-destruct without taking the rest of us down? Are the real adults/former diplomatic leaders/military-leadership-now-fired secretly assembling to get ready to pick ups these pieces when they do? Asking for a friend.

Please, someone, ask this question to him in a public forum: Are the people you appointed/hired/consulting with ALL without physical or psychological disability? If they're recovering addicts or not Causcasian race, how are they not considered DEI hires, according to your definitions?

The dipshit is doing a press briefing on the crash and has systematically called Buttigieg an asshole and critiqued how the FAA hires people with disabilities-not competent white people-and pivots to "God bless." This is a circus act. Hope the victim's families have something to say about this jerk.

Watching leaders gather at Carter funeral and it feels much more than just the death of a good man. But the death of good government. I’m so sad.
