I feel like a little blue Gen X dragonfly born on a lake that is populated by red critters who consume right-wing propaganda all the live-long day and stubbornly recite talking points that are at odds with their own reality and values.

Reagan was considered quite old when he left office, but he was about to turn 78. Trump was almost 79 when inaugurated for his second term. He is the oldest president ever.

It says a lot about our country that the FBI had no interest in interviewing Brett Kavanaugh but wants to talk to Mark Kelly.

In Wyoming, a 60-year-old person earning roughly $63,000 is facing a 421% increase in average monthly premium costs on the ACA marketplace, according to reporting by KFF, a nonprofit that writes about health care. No other state equals or tops that percentage.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

The House passed a resolution condemning socialism. Okay.

When are they going to pass a resolution condemning fascism?

Playing this on repeat to get us through.

Hours after Trump’s FBI opened an investigation into New York Attorney General Letitia James, she appeared at a town hall with a powerful message for the resistance.

On an election debate stage in 2016 we were warned by Hillary Clinton about Russia’s intervention in media and political manipulation. We’ve seen those warnings become real, before our eyes, just as we saw January 6, 2021 #PutinsPuppet #DefendTheConstitution🇺🇸#ProtectDemocracy🇺🇸
