Self-care includes not arguing with people committed to misunderstanding you. Peace grows when you stop feeding chaos and choose your own clarity, safety, and humanity instead. Protect your energy. Choose peace. #ChoosePeaceNotChaos #USDemocracy #MomSky

It would take only a handful of Republican votes in the Senate and even fewer in the House to impeach, convict, and remove Trump. Only a handful.

Every day that has gone by since November ‘24, has hurt my heart and my head. It’s getting worse. I am struggling with the 89 million voters who turned a blind eye and ear to the warnings of this happening. Why wasn’t keeping him out of office enough of a reason to exercise their civic duty? smh

Im an IU fan, and yes, Mendoza can be a bit much at times. But he's really just an excitable dorky kid and isn't trying to push his faith, it just comes out. He'll mellow out over time.
