Woman with a Broom. I believe if we work smart and together, we will get that magic we are working towards, and the realization of the many ScienceFiction movies in my head where the White House=WestWing and C Street=Madam Secretary. It can still happen.

Have not felt warm since 11/5, like all the warmth just drained out of the world. Here are my lovies: they try, and I am coming back slowly.💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙🥶

JFK in 1960 defined a liberal as someone who who fights for justice and civil rights, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigidity, who defends the vulnerable, and acts with principle. His bold words still challenge every one of us to stand up and do what's right.

PM Mark Carney has announced Canada will give $2.5B worth of economic assistance to Ukraine. Unlike its southern neighbor, Canada has principled leadership that is not beholden to Putin.
He's also not in the Epstein Files.

“Pencil thin” line of heavy rain headed our way. Little, if any, lightning. Gusty winds to 50-55 mph, yes. But, non-severe. Should be here in the 10 o’clock hour. This is our cold front….and a cold front it sure is. 9:05 pm

📌Just heard an interview with John Mellencamp.
Jack, in "Jack and Diane" was written as a black dude. They were an interracial couple. Thing is, the music producers didn't like that back then, so it wasn’t sold that way.
Mellencamp was asked why.
"Because America is racist as hell, that’s why ..."

Even people living above 400% of the poverty line will be affected—particularly older enrollees and those living in higher-premium locations—as they will lose their credits entirely. Around half of those who would lose eligibility are between the ages of 50 and 64. trib.al/Ot9RsAU
