Punishing Veterans for following the law, for defending the rule of law, is WRONG!

I'm attending No Kings's event, “NO KINGS Davidson County” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

From what I saw, Rep. Garcia was wrongly attacked while doing a lawful act - his job of federal oversight. Shame on those agents! Double shame on Kristi Noem. This cannot be allowed to become a norm.

Last week, there was a news article about Trump firing an employee who was alleged to have allowed the safety slide on the TRUMP aircraft to open accidentally and the plane was damaged. Trump could not use that plane for at least two campaign appearances.

Social Security is not a Ponzi scheme. The name says what it is designed to do: to provide security to those who need it. I've worked ever since I was old enough to do so & have paid in. Will SS be there for me? It better be!

Today is the anniversary of Walter Cronkite's last newscast (1981) He said he was concerned about the direction in which news was going. Prescient comments about the rise of infotainment & the division that would occur if people heard competing news. "And that's the way it is."

Mr. Musk: Just because you don't agree with a judge's decision, it does not mean it's appropriate to call for any sort of retribution. WE are better than this!

To hear a staffer rebuke Ukraine President Zelenskyy in the Oval Office for not wearing a suit displayed manifest ignorance & was incredibly disrespectful. Did he not know that Zelenskyy dresses the way he does to honor his soldiers who are still on the front lines of the war the Russia started?

I cannot believe the stupidity of this week. Banning pictures of the Enola Gay plane of WW2 fame because someone who does not know history does not know that the plane was name after the US Pilot's mother!

I am horrified by the performance I saw in the Oval Office today. On the world stage, Trump & Zelenskyy are equals. Zelenskyy came across as level-headed & focused on the reason for the meeting. Trump came across as a bully. Vance chimed in. It was ugly. It reflects poorly on this country.

01/20/2025 seems as if it was at least a year ago. I vacillate between fear & fury, between determination & uncertainty. I don't have a bucket of money to send to causes that I support (though I've done what I could in the past) and...Swirling thoughts. I cannot wait for the current tide to turn!

The legal carnage that Mr. Bove has unleashed at SDNY is shocking. I almost cannot believe things are this bad.

How is it that the president-elect and an unelected bazillionaire get to dictate what happens in Congress? I have family and friends who could go without pay before the holidays if the government shuts down.

My sister told me about BlueSky. Checked it out and like it so much = here I am!
