Singing through the bloody mist
We’ll take our stand for this land
And the stranger in our midst

These whistles are so tiny. I had a rare (these days) moment of humor imagining I would have the most amusing flatulence if I happened to swallow one.

Remember, all elections matter. Every single one of them.

CNN in Minneapolis: We are seeing thousands and thousands of people, we've been standing on the corner here for the past ten minutes. This this crowd has not let up. It's just continuous.

I'm so tired. We're all so damn tired. I don't really post here often but I am a real human. This place though, Minneapolis is one of the warmest cold places in existence. You'd have to come here to understand that we are full of amazing people. Look out for your neighbors.

So let me get this straight. These "geniuses" randomly fired 400 people as a part of their money saving scheme. *Snort* They now realize it's very hard to recruit for these positions and have to increase their wage by $5/hour.

For your consideration:

1. We have the National Museum of the American Indian on the mall in D.C., and

2. We have the clearly named Indian Citizenship Act of 1924, but

3. The Trump Administration is arguing in court that Natives do not have birthright citizenship.

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines.

The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds.

It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.

I keep hearing Canadian and Mexican people say they won't buy red state products.

It would be a challenge but I'm all for trying to avoid red state purchases whenever possible. Why not try?💪🏽
