A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...

This little bug is taking shelter under the rose petals. It has something to be thankful for in this windy day. Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate!

Let me tell you what the upshot is from the now-dropped Georgia January 6 case:
A rich white man can with impunity plot to overthrow our government with 18 co-defendants—in a plot with a death toll—if a Black woman involved in the investigation had inadvisable sex.
*That* is how racist America is.

Genuine question: has any GOP member of house or senate spoken out about the Dept of defense and Hegseth threatening sen Mark Kelly with lawfare? Beyond disturbing
Especially any veterans?
Shame on all those who stay silent
