Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.
Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law
Time to do things that make him react to you.

Trump has canceled Biden's ethics rules. Critics call it the opposite of 'drain the swamp'
Donald Trump took office eight years ago pledging to “drain the swamp” of the dominance of Washington influence peddlers.

Watch for the white shirts in the front row cheering.
It was our annual Seats for Soldiers Nite.
Our front row season ticket holders give their seats to active and former military.
Last night we had 42 Purple Heart recipients watch the Mavs pull out the win !

Does anyone have a contact for Ann ? Would love to discuss with her the possibility of partnering with her to publish her cartoons exclusively on @bluesky
Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.
He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.
Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

How we'll know if Trump is going to sell America out to China
Keep an eye on the export controls. They are the key.

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do;
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too.
Imagine all the people
Livin' life in peace.
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one.
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one.

So refreshing. Social media is Social again
Honestly the discourse on here is so much better than Twitter. I tossed off a take, people came in to correct me, we had a conversation, and folks were willing to give me grace about the stuff I admitted I got wrong!

We served our guests a delicious 20-pound turkey for Thanksgiving dinner. My husband @robertcooper-us.bsky.social did the cooking, and I did the carving. We make such a great team! 🦃
