“The Founders would never believe that it would ever come to pass that one state militia could be sent to another state for the purposes of political retribution”

THAT PART!

Thank you, Judge Perry.

Spread this. It is our original sin, and the longer it is ignored, the bigger it gets.

Soooo, my husband is MAGA and he listens to a lot of their propaganda without headphones. Which means I get to listen too. The weirdest thing I heard this week was a bunch of dudes running The Charlie Kirk Show, as though he’d just, you know, stepped out for a bit and they were pitching in to help🤷‍♀️

This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent.

Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.

You want to fix the ACA? Easy.

Strip Congress of their diamond public health plans and pay them the median American income: $41,400 a year.

No insider trading, no perks, and dock every vacation day after seven.

Watch how fast they fix healthcare then.

Are you like my dad? A perfectionist who likes to fix all the things and brag about perfect paint lines for decades? Cash for painting 4 rooms, trim, fixing dishwasher and swapping two floor planks. Signed, a capable adult woman who does in fact, need a man, but doesn’t want beard hair in my sink.

In all the chaos, I would urge folks to remember that a lot of folks now don’t know when their next check will come.

The vast majority are good people who love this nation deeply, and many of them are still working despite not knowing when they’ll be paid

Have compassion.

My latest in my fight against the Washington Post.

I’ve filed a grievance against the Post through the WaPo Guild— and have sent a letter to Washington Post challenging my firing.

Proud to have @normeisen.bsky.social + @katiephang.bsky.social in my corner.

The Washington Post Accused Me of “Gross Misconduct.” Here's My Response.

This fight isn’t just about my job — it’s about who gets punished for telling the truth, and who gets protected for spreading hate and violence.

If America is over, it is because of lies, greed, and cruelty. Just like Rome, just like the end of every other ‘great’ civilization. If we survive it will be because we have penanced the original sins of slavery and colonialism.
