Husband/girl dad with faith that democracy is the way to go; still idealistic enough to believe it's achievable. The only thing I'm selling is democracy. Banned (3x!) by the fowl site for calling out GOP lies.

This is their playbook: No warning, no transparency, no coordination. Their goal here isn’t safety, it’s to sow chaos, fear, and intimidation.
We’re still gathering information about what happened in St. Paul, but what we do know is that once again, federal authorities provided no notice to local leaders or law enforcement.

If they’re estranged, did the Trump Administration do Leavitt’s brother a favor and get rid of her? An appalling suggestion, but these people are appalling.

For months, Ed Martin and Bill Pulte harassed Trump’s political adversaries with bogus claims of mortgage fraud. But in a twist, we’ve now learned that the DOJ is investigating Martin and Pulte themselves for allegedly improper conduct. lnk.thebulwark.com/4ofiJ8U
How Much Did Trump Stooge Ed Martin Blab to Alex Jones?

It can appear absurd to speak of friendship with animals, let alone trees. But is it so strange? Empedocles argued that our circle of belonging doesn’t stop with humans. Animals, plants, even trees are our kin, and so treating them well isn’t optional, but a moral obligation
