Do you remember Betty Reid Soskin? She was the oldest serving National Park Ranger in the United States, we celebrated her retirement at the age of 100.

Betty Reid Soskin (1921–2025) passed away on Sunday, but she lived an extraordinary life.

“The answers are only temporary.”

Why does this ridiculous, stupid, coke-addled nepo-baby of a nepo-baby brat have any say in U.S. foreign policy? What foolish, horrifying times we live in.

Elections have consequences. A man like this never belonged near the levers of power. Not the first time. And certainly not this second time when everything was knowable. We are trapped in a tragedy and must fight our way out.

In the old days, we just used to call them “losers”

Now, they’re “Right Wing Influencers”

An ICE agent has been arrested for putting a woman in a chokehold and causing “serious physical harm”

Police said they had been called to the residence 22 times

It’s time we talk about what kind of men are attracted to being ICE agents

Hint: It’s men who would strangle a woman
ICE agent arrested, held on ‘no bond’ order at prosecutor’s request
Samuel Saxon is charged with felonious assault, strangulation and domestic violence.He pleaded not guilty to all counts.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

A top Republican in Indiana, whose daughter has Down Syndrome, just announced he will be voting to block Trump’s gerrymandering after Trump used the R-word to insult people yesterday.

20-year-old West Virginia National Guard member, Sarah Beckstrom, died a day after volunteering to serve in DC so that others could enjoy Thanksgiving with their families. She deserves our gratitude, not political exploitation by a shameless president who scapegoats immigrants to swell his power.

In a just world we wouldn’t even need the Epstein files to believe Trump is a predator. A bunch of women have already said so. Plus a jury even found him liable.

To everyone saying that people in our military already know not to follow unlawful orders, how do you explain almost 100 civilians murdered on fishing boats in the Caribbean so far?

If he wasn’t the Great White Hope, his presidency would be DUNNNNNN by now.

He has literally bulldozed the economy, the value of the dollar, the job market, our trade relationships, our diplomatic relations, our national security…there is literally NOTHING he hasn’t ruined.

Not even the WH.
