The quilt I’m most proud of is my book quilt. It was fun to make and more fun to use. My little boys love to play “I Spy” with it!
AMAZING!!

Doesn't it strike you as strange that the people who shout long and loud that America is a Christian nation founded on Christian principles are the very people who don't want Christ's teachings of tolerance, pacifism, and generosity codified in law?

Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
—Harry Truman, 1952

If I was a Republican member of Congress watching the results tonight, I’d ask myself if I really wanted my legacy to be: Guy who helped an aging pedophile suspend the constitution so he could enrich himself and his friends.

On the eve of his second election — on October 31, 1936 — FDR delivered his coup de grace, explaining the stakes in his fight with the moneyed interests.
Today’s economic royalists are backing Trump, and the fight is much the same.

The president had a MRI but won't say why.
He had bruises on his hands but wouldn't say why.
He just had an 'annual medical' even though he already had his annual medical.
He got shot in the ear but has never released the medical records relating to it.
How is any of this ok?

40 million Americans may go hungry in November because their SNAP funding is at risk.
40 million people at a time when most are already struggling to put food on the table.
Trump just gave 40 billion to Argentina.
That could feed every American.
That could easily fund SNAP.
America first?

“The problem with billionaires isn’t that they’re hoarding money that would otherwise pay for a Scandinavian social utopia. It’s that their money has become a source of wildly distorted political power that allows a few men with extremist views to wreak havoc on the rest of us.”

Also his past relationship with Kimberly Guilfoyle should be a huge red flag and call his basic judgment into question.
As much as people love Newsom’s well designed digs at the Toddler King, he will have to eventually address his flirtations with Right Wing podcasters and the fact that Pritzker has been consistently serious and articulate in his own resistance to tyranny.

For the life of me, I don’t understand why ABC/Disney doesn’t play hardball with these affiliate groups — “you take all our programming, or you get none, and that includes NFL football games. How will your viewers like that? So…I guess you’re airing Kimmel after all?”
If a station is owned by the Sinclair group, they won’t be airing Jimmy Kimmel. Sinclair is demanding that he issue a direct apology to the Kirk family and even make a donation to them and Turning Point USA. Lol, why on earth would he do that?

There's no reason to have a conversation about political violence based in rhetoric rather than data.
I don't need to note that every bomb threat on Election Day in 2024 was a MAGA bomb threat.
I don't need to mention January 6, Paul Pelosi, or the two dead Minnesota Democrats.
