A heavy heart makes for difficult sleep.

History is being made at this very moment and we need to each decide what values we will live for.

Choose wisely.

Patriarchy protects predators

It’s not surprising they’re suppressing the Epstein list

Survivors don’t matter. It’s about protecting the men

Country fans are upset with Zach Bryan after he criticized ICE in a song.

But don't let it be known that Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Johnny Cash all despised fascism and leaned heavily to the left.

If you ever find yourself zip tying a child's hands I wanna be really clear with you on what this says about you. You're not one of the "good guys." You're the problem. Your soul is rotten. Your intentions are evil. And whoever is above you telling you to do this is the pure embodiment of evil.

As a private attorney, Paxton allowed her to bill $3,780 an hour, so that day of work cost taxpayers $24,570.

Not one member of the media has challenged that orange POS to simply show footage of “all the fires in Portland.” It’s like bizarro world. Of course when those members are handpicked for not going against him, it’ll never happen.
