Found some candytuft to plant. Such a lovely old fashioned flower. Reminds me of my great grandmother who always had a patch of it. #heirloomflowers #happy #peace

This is one of America's saddest days, but it pales in comparison to the days that are coming for so many here.

Imagine this is you.

You’re locked in a cell thousands of miles from home. No one knows where you are. No charges. No trial. No end in sight.

For those of you that don’t know geography, Uganda is in AFRICA just like Musk, Mamdani is an African American. Btw, Canadians and Mexicans are also AMERICANS, we are the USA and We don’t own the Continent.

Some people are working on gathering at the Capitol steps to show support for Representative Hakeem Jeffries of New York. If you can’t be there in person, you can still show your support from wherever you are.

Congrats to Lisa Murkowski on voting for a bill that she herself admitted was not ready in hopes that the House would change it. Now it’ll become law. She had the power to stop it, and instead chose to become complicit. That’s her legacy.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

ICE now has over 70 billion dollars to build more concentration camps.

Just in time for Independence Day.

God damn you, America.

Mike Johnson just said if you are for reducing the deficit, this bill is for you.

The bill adds 3-4 trillion dollars to the deficit.

They just lie.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

One last word on the matter before I mute myself. We've heard a lot about how words against genocide sound antisemitic to sensitive ears. Well I'm a brown Muslim immigrant so I know words hurt, but fuck me I'd never say they're on the same level as killing kids. Get some perspective for fuckssake

Bartiromo: "We are waiting any moment now to get the jobs number for the month of June. The expectations call for the numbers to be up 95,000. Right now seeing the number -- actually, uh, showing a decline in jobs, uh, down 33,000, uh."

Rep. Dean: "The senators voted on this not knowing exactly what was in the bill. I bet they loved the part about no sales tax on silencers. Really, folks? We want to make silencers more plentiful in this country at the behest of the representative who owns gun stores? Conflicts of interest abound."

The health secretary has made many inaccurate statements about vaccines. But the science is clear that vaccines have dramatically reduced childhood illness, disability and death.
