I’m a baby boomer, and grew up with “Father Knows Best” and “Leave it to Beaver”. I’ve seen many changes - civil rights act, Row vs. Wade, gay rights, election of a black president, etc. Now I fear we are headed back to the 50’s.
Thank you Indiana! Maybe there are some republicans with the integrity needed to stand up to Trump. Perhaps there is still some hope?

ICYMI — “I identified myself as a U.S. citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. ICE Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out… this experience violated the very principles I fought to defend.”

After the Shut Down 🔪 Back, is anyone surprised the Senate voted not to extend ACA CREDITS?

It’s just one more crisis to add to the list:

Uninsured
Health Care
Medication
Groceries
Joblessness
Affordability
Housing
Constitutional Rights

What’s Missing?

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

So the US just hijacked an oil tanker and the president casually says “I guess we keep the oil”

Buttigieg on Indiana: "The big part of how Trumpism works is to make you feel totally disempowered. To make him feel inevitable. And yet the clear takeaway from this is he is not unstoppable and you are not without power."

BREAKING: DOJ has failed to indict Letitia James for a THIRD time! It's like Christmas around here!
Do it. Take these to another grand jury. Then a 2nd and a 3rd, until we get a breaking news story about how much you suck at this. And if you do manage to get a true bill, we can watch you lose again in pretrial motions. Do it! I live to watch you lose! www.politico.com/news/2025/12...
DOJ deciding whether to seek new Comey, James indictments

Hundreds of kids in S Carolina are being quarantined right now because of a measles outbreak.

I don’t have patience for niceties when it comes to this crap, so if you’re an anti-vaxxer, keep your damn kids at home and don’t travel for the holidays.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment.

They are openly saying this.

Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

Yesterday, Spc Sarah Becstrom was laid to rest in West Virginia at a VA National Cemetery.
Surprisingly none of the major major news media mention it. No flags were lower to half staff.
Well the Convicted FElon keeps the news focus on him.
