I am a Professor teaching online Business Communication classes at a state university in Tennessee. I am a blue dot in a red state.
Items I would like to see on every ballot in every state:
1. Term limits for Congress
2. Terms for Supreme Court Justices
3. Maximum age at which a person can run for/be elected President. We have a minimum (35), so let’s set a maximum—say, 65.

You know, once upon a time we asked France to help us win our freedom from a King. What is stopping “We, the people” from asking Canada and our European allies (that also detest Trump) to help us take back our democracy?

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

I may be ignorant of our rights as U.S. citizens, but can someone explain to me why we, the people, cannot simply demand an END to the present government—executive and legislative—and conduct a new election. We could have a temporary governing body comprised of our former living Presidents (no DJT)

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.
This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.
It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.
They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.
I’m happy to invest and/or help

Can blue states not start the process for recall elections of republican senators and representatives from their states? They are supporting the illegal access of musk and minions to sensitive personal information about Americans, failing to support and defend the Constitution.

HELL YEAH! Congressman Jim McGovern TORE Speaker Mike Johnson a new for saying it wasn’t “his place” to question Trump’s January 6 pardon.
“Not your place?? WHO THE HELL’S PLACE IS IT?” He said.
“How about you stand with the officers who protected you and not a reality show wannabe dictator.” 💙

And trumpty-dumpty is old and frail. He has to paint himself orange, dye his hair, wear a hairpiece, girdle, and diaper to try and fool people into forgetting he’s senile. So, standing in the cold would likely result in pneumonia and death. He can’t possibly allow that. He has a country to destroy.
Right, but Kennedy was a man.
The temperature at noon on Monday will be 22 degrees which is the same temperature it was in 1961 when Kennedy was inaugurated.
