“... but then there was a star danced, and under that was I born.” Very much over 18. I could definitely be your mom. she/her.
Let me get this straight. Sometimes a famous person dies and everyone is nice about it? Merely because of their deeds during life?
Child Detention. Just those two words together. JFC - CHILD DETENTION.
The #Epstein class intends to round up and detain children. A federal judge found the government likely violated the Flores 30-day limit, with children held as long as a year. The next day, contractors were on a call about sites holding up to 3,000 kids, operational within 90 days.

A gem from today's CDC all-hands: our new COO, Sean Slovenski, said he’s going to tell RIF’d employees the “phone number to call” to get their jobs back. You cannot make this up.
ROSIE: “.. I'm back in the spotlight all thanks to President Ompa J. Loompa, who is watching us this evening from inside a catering cart. You know, I couldn't have done it without you, sweetie. You brought me back just like you did with fascism and the measles." $DIS

We need to pick up 4 Senate seats. But that only works if we don’t lose any. We have to protect Michigan & Georgia. Ossoff looks pretty solid in Georgia right now, but Michigan is a MUST HOLD. We can’t hand Michigan to Republicans. If we lose Michigan, suddenly we don’t need 4 pickups. We need 5.
If you're a biologist, especially one in a field that has a history of eugenics and racism (which absolutely includes my own field of evolutionary biology) and you choose to remain "neutral" as race science once again crawls out from under its rock, you are not in fact neutral.

Thomas Massie lost tonight because he wanted the Epstein List released and pedophiles held accountable. Trump didn't want any of that, so he had to go.

No matter what shenanigans the ALGOP pull, remember that your vote matters! Vote as often as you have to, they wouldn't be so desperate to suppress the vote if your vote didn't matter!

A true fact about Trump's stock trading- I ran the numbers and Trump traded up to ~$700 million in stock in Q1 of 2026. All 535 Members of Congress made a total of ~$635 million worth of trades in 2025. So Trump bought and sold more stock in 3 months than all of Congress put together did last year
Voting today in Alabama. Primary might be, probably will be overturned, but I’m voting anyway. I didn’t mean anything, they wouldn’t be trying so so hard to take it away.
