The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.

Want to know why?

Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.

Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

This is extreme gardening.

At 55 feet high and 300 years old, it takes one gardener 10 weeks on a hydraulic cherry-picker to trim the hedges at Powis Castle, returning the yew hedges to their famous, cloud-like shapes.

A gardener stands holding electric shears on a huge red cherrypicker, trimming a gigantic, cloud-shaped, dark green hedge. The rolling green hills of the countryside stretch out in the background under a blue sky.

Well today marks the end of the garden trampoline season in #Orkney! The rain swept in heavily yesterday afternoon/evening and a couple of my class were talking about parents getting their trampolines away before #StormAmy hits later. Time to batten down the hatches!🌬️🍂🌧️

The floods in Valencia were a European tragedy.

The stories of those who lost everything to DANA moved all of us so profoundly.

We mourned together. Now we will recover together.

Today, we commit nearly €1.6 billion in EU funds for recovery and reconstruction.
