This morning my husband walked into the kitchen and crooned "How's my beautiful girl today" and I was feeling pretty damn good until I realized he was talking to the dog.

Thomas Massie has introduced a resolution for the United States to pull out of NATO. The US was the only country to invoke Article 5 after the 9/11 attacks, and NATO allies answered the call.
This is a move that will no doubt be endorsed by Putin with his dreams of expanding his war across Europe.

The supposed legal justifications for these boat strikes just don't make sense
Even in war you can’t target civilians
Experts across party lines agree: this looks like murder
We need the memo, the full video & an investigation
I explained on @ms.now 👇

I've loved Sigourney Weaver ever since one of my all-time favorite movies, ALIEN. Couldn't resist going all fanboy on her yesterday & asking for a photo. She told me she's now in the cast of The Mandalorian. Talk about bad timing: she's now in that galaxy far, far away, years after I checked out! 💔

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”
What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”
Funny how that works.

The most transparent administration in history is now hiding both the complete Epstein files and the complete video of the Sept. 2 boat strike from the American people, only releasing the parts of each that they want you to see while concealing the rest.
