Lady Cluck is trying to lay an egg underneath Softie, who is broody and has been dominating the favored nesting area. All the other chickens have adapted and are laying elsewhere. But not Lady Cluck 😳 #backyardchickens

Please have eyes on the SAVE act, going now to the senate.
It makes it difficult/impossible for millions of women to vote, as well as placing massive administrative burdens on the electoral system that will slow it to a crawl.

That’s supposed to be permitted in a democracy.
If this egregious assault on civil liberties stands, what’s to stop Trump from arresting American citizens who support any cause his regime doesn’t like?
