This was me, a little over a year ago, dressed in suffragette white, wearing a sandwich board stating: I CANNOT VOTE TODAY ASK ME WHY. As a registered unaffiliated (independent) voter, I'm barred from voting in DC's taxpayer-funded primary elections. 73% of voters here want to change that. 1/2

He said this deliberately because he is a Nazi and he wants you to know he's a Nazi who you can't touch. He also wants other Nazis to know they can be open about the fact they are Nazis too.

This isn't an oversight, a fumble or an opportunity for a "heh, well actually, dummy" zinger.

"Antifa has been around in various iterations for almost 100 years in some instances, going back to the Weimar Republic in Germany."

It's good that he has the resources to move himself to what should be (I hope) a safer environment. #solidarity

Are they current cabinet members because they were epstein associates? As in, is that a job requirement? Or, are they current cabinet members because they all have something on 47? I believe the phrase I'm searching for is mutually assured self destruction.🤔

I don't belivee most Americans have seen military in the streets. How they could be sick of it? Don't get me wrong. I certainly wish that were the case. 🙏🏽

I live in DC. He's always got a grift going ... crypto, the WH ballroom, a coin. Hell! I can't keep up. 🤭

What are the other options? My apologies. I wasn't paying attention when this first hit the fan.

To be honest, as I read the first lines of the quoted skeet, I assumed it was in reference to 47 before I scrolled and saw the photo. 😬

This image was posted on X today by a Chicago Tribune reporter. Trump’s government has declared war on the American people — or some of them, based on race.

CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax

This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

I miss virtual (online) writing groups like the ones tou used to host. Between yours and Rosie's, I wrote about 15,000 words (of 18,000+) for my book. Sadly, I haven't written much since 2023. 😬

NEW: In May, a Texas police department said they used the powerful Flock surveillance network against a woman who had an abortion "for her safety"

Newly obtained court records show it was a 'death investigation,' and they considered charging her with a crime
