I think the Greenland threat is a troll. I think.

But it would sure be nice for some senators and GOP house members to speak up now and make it clear that an attack on a nato ally would lead to removal from office

Chris Murphy: "At some level he's winning tonight because clearly part of his intent here was to distract the American people -- you and I -- from what's happening here at home. You have 20 million families who are getting massive increases in their healthcare premiums. People will die."

The CDC changed the universal vaccine schedule & no longer recommends

Rotavirus

I’ve cared for previously healthy kids who died from RSV, influenza and meningitis.

We all are going to be caring for a lot more now.

I stand with Mark Kelly ✊🏽

Who’s with me?

Pete Hegseth, a former cable news personality and the most unqualified Secretary of Defense in history, coming for a decorated combat veteran and astronaut over military conduct is deeply unserious.

This blatant retaliation against Senator Kelly is more evidence of the Trump administration's pattern of punishing political opposition and chilling dissent.

President Trump wants elected officials to shut their mouths about his administration, but we all have a right to criticize the government.
Hegseth announces censure and potential demotion of Sen. Mark Kelly
The Trump administration has targeted the Arizona Democrat, a retired Navy officer, over a video reminding U.S. troops they can disobey illegal orders.

This shouldn’t surprise anyone. He also decided to raid Venezuela because Maduro was dancing on TV.

He doesn’t make decisions based on the reality on the ground - he makes decisions based on his ego. Always.
Insanity: Sources close to the White House told the Washington Post Trump lost interest in backing Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado to lead the country because she accepted her Nobel Peace Prize rather than demanding it be given to Trump, which was viewed as an “ultimate sin.”

"Five years ago, Trump launched an assault on our Capitol, watched the battle on a screen—just as he did during the Venezuela operation—and egged on his forces as they hunted our vice president. Maduro’s regime isn’t the first government Trump has tried to topple in our hemisphere. It’s the second."

The reasons he listed for toppling Venezuela’s Maduro apply just as well to many other governments.

Always remember that listening to music can be the entire activity. Put on headphones. Blast it through speakers. Close your eyes and just listen.

Listening to music is not a background activity. It can be the entire journey, and it's worth the time.

If you’re pregnant please wear a well fitted mask like an N95.

Pregnancy makes you high risk for Covid complications.

There’s no risk to masking and cleaning the air.

More & more studies are showing that Covid during pregnancy harms a developing fetus.

Mask up.
