Avid reader, love my dogs, my husband, and my grandbabies-not by blood, but by heart! Also, I really love owls.
I am also an atheist. I can care without having to pray for permission.

As it turns out, the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun *isn’t* a good guy with a gun—it can be a good guy *without* a gun. Just another NRA lie.

When the government admits it broke the law to imprison children, that is not a policy failure. It is a moral one.
ICE now admits that hundreds of children were held past the legal 20-day custody limit set to protect their safety.
Five were kept for 168 days.
Some faced unsafe conditions and went days without medical care.
This crosses a moral line.

About 400 immigrant children were detained longer than the recommended limit, ICE admits
Legal advocates concerned over the prolonged detention of immigrant children in federal custody are sounding the alarm before the federal court. U.S.

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
The department could forgo an appeal of Lindsey Halligan’s disqualification and instead seek to bring new charges against James Comey and Letitia James.

If telling troops they must disobey unlawful orders is sedition, you’re gonna have to hang all the military academy instructors, boot camp drill instructors and training manual authors, along with every member of congress that authorized the UCMJ by voting yes on the most recent NDAA.

Republicans already do this. I've witnessed this at every job I've ever worked at, the usually Republican owners push for voting on every level
Liberals vote sporadically if at all, are more interested in not voting to "send a message" and only really get into it after things go bad

Key word APPEAR. Republicans are prolific liars so they are gifted at appearing to be good candidates. I cannot remember the last time I voted for a republican.
