I can't believe that I'm not seeing a lot of posts about Trump losing his shit on social media. I really thought that last night would push him over the edge and I looked forward to seeing screen shots of his posts.

I mentioned awhile ago that I was taking steps to switch from my beloved day job (dog walker) & going back to practicing law. Still slogging along Tomorrow I'm going to the Immigration Court in Hartford to prove my identity so I can get an EOIR number to be able to practice in immigration courts.

Democrats must play by the same rules as the Republicans. Doing anything less is to give away our democracy.

Please share this post so I can find someone who has an answer.

Trump is scheduled to meet with Putin to get a peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia. Why are folks talking about it like Trump can give away Ukrainian land to Russia? Shouldn't Ukraine choose whether or not to cede land?

The House Republican rules committee just blocked Rep. Khanna's amendment to have the House vote on whether or not to release the Epstein files.

Um... weren't they the ones who wanted to release it before they didn't want to release it?

Please introduce some legislation to unmask ICE and DHS officers. It's so dangerous to people to not know if folks are being kidnapped or legally detained.

If I'm not eligible for a COVID vaccine because I'm not 65, what does that actually mean? Does that mean I can't get it at all? That the govt won't pay for it? That it won't be covered by insurance?

What a coincidence that this is being investigated just after Harvard stood up to Trump!!!
House Republicans Investigate Harvard’s Collaborations With China | News | The Harvard Crimson
The House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party opened an investigation on Monday into Harvard’s partnerships with organizations accused of having ties to the CCP.

They're kidnapping immigrant children and deporting the parents again.

This is a one time post. I was a practicing attorney for a little while. At the time I was dealing with undiagnosed depression and I got totally overwhelmed & "retired" to become a pet sitter & dog walker. Now I want to reopen the practice and do immigration law. Help appreciated

How do we make it so that official law enforcement don't wear masks that cover their faces? We're not a banana republic. We should be able to see who is coming to arrest us.

If you think fertilized eggs have rights but 2-year-old US citizens with cancer don’t, stop pretending your concerns are “the children.”

I would love to enjoy your podcasts more, but honestly the lack of a sound engineer makes it seem less than a professional podcast. Do your advertisers realize that about one-third of them have their ads at a volume that they can't be heard?

What's the push to have American women have more babies? If we're short of people in this country, why are we kicking out people who want to be here? Makes more sense than trying to pay women to have children they don't want to have.

The president of El Salvador says he's holding Abrego Garcia and the others transferred there because the US is paying him to.

But the Pres of El Salvador is trying to do a prisoner swap with Venezuela now. All of a sudden he doesn't have to hold them in prison?

Never thought this would happen. 8 years ago I "retired" from the practice of law. Not because I was of retirement age but because I was practicing family law and I didn't want to do another day of that. Today I started the ball rolling to go back to law -- but this time, immigration.

@vanhollen.senate.gov Can't Congress stop paying El Salvador? They hold the purse strings, don't they?
April 16, 2025 at 8:36 PM
Congress must Withhold Payment

“If the government of El Salvador has no evidence that he was part of MS-13, why is El Salvador continuing to hold him in CECOT?” Van Hollen asked.

“And his answer was that the Trump administration is paying the government of El Salvador to keep him at CECOT.”

Today my stress level boiled over. I can't wrap my head around what this "administration" is doing to us all.
