I see my old tweet is making the rounds on Instagram and Facebook. 😊 If you get a chance, pls watch “Surviving Ohio State” on HBO. You will be outraged that this cretin in in the Congress.

Considering how much Trump enjoys pardoning criminals, you’ve got to wonder why Jeffrey Epstein is dead and not pardoned.

For the record, the judges and staff of our federal courts are working without pay,

but Congress is being paid without working.

I am infuriated by the preposterousness of these ridiculous times.

Open AI is currently building a data center in Texas that will require roughly the equivalent of the power the Hoover Dam produces to operate.

Last week the Whitehouse killed a renewable energy project that was going to produce as much powers as three Hoover Dams.

None of this makes any sense.

This is an opportunity for Democrats to reach out to farmers. It’s almost winter— maybe time for a tractorcade if farmers can afford it.
Let’s see the optics of the feds turning on them. Who remembers 1979?

Thank you, Sen @reed.senate.gov

“It speaks volumes that so many respected outlets have refused to sign this misguided order. Mr. Hegseth and his team have missed the mark legally and morally, and they should immediately abandon this policy and restore the Pentagon’s longstanding commitment ...”

OCTOBER 14, 2025
Reed Condemns Hegseth Effort to Censor Pentagon Press Corps
WASHINGTON, DC—Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has issued an unprecedented and unsound requirement that Pentagon reporters sign a form acknowledging a policy forbidding them from gathering or publishing unapproved information—including unclassified material—under threat of losing their press credentials.

In response, U.S. Senator Jack Reed (D-RI), the Ranking Member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, issued the following statement:

“The American people pay for our defense in both blood and treasure, and they deserve journalists who can ask tough questions of our military leaders without fear or favor. A free and fair press is essential to our nation, but Secretary Hegseth is attempting to shut down independent reporting with these coercive restrictions.

Truth. As a farm kid growing up, i witnessed the abhorrent growth of factory farms and the demise of natural resources to include aquifers that were mythically expected to last hundreds of years.

Farmers grow what they grow because of farm policy.

We don’t need all the soy and corn that we grow, but those are the commodities that receive subsidies and markets.

If we want something better, if we want to heal the Earth and grow food, now is the time to do it.

Trump clearly decided that rapid identification of public health threats to the U.S. is something that only Democrats want.

Public health largely began in the military because once upon a time, leaders understood that disease is the greatest threat to militarily readiness. That’s over.
