The frog is in the pot. The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has announced it has sent federal monitors to polls in four Democratic-leaning cities in Michigan, amid warnings that the administration of United States President Donald Trump could use such monitors for partisan aims.

This morning Senate Judiciary Committee will vote & approve Trump's personal attorney as Attorney General. After making it clear that he is Trump's lawyers & not your lawyer as dictated by the Constitution & paid for by your tax dollars. Cornyn & Tillis will show their bellies & taxpayers lose again

“The U.S. Attorney's Office for DC wrote that given newly released evidence from the Department of the Interior, “it is difficult to attribute the widespread damage to the Reflecting Pool to vandalism, let alone to establish that fact beyond a reasonable doubt.”

Ripple effects: After Hearn, three others have their Reflecting Pool charges dropped — NPR

Prosecutors dropped their case against David Hearn on Friday, blaming Reflecting Pool damage on a "botched installation" rather than vandalism. That has implications for other people who were charged.

GOP job interview: So it says here that you’re a criminal. - Yes, i am. But you want a job here. - Yes, i do. … Will you stop breaking the law? - Nope. Please? >wink< - OK, maybe. >wink-wink< Good enough. You have the job.

Hahahahahaha, Florida. Florida has decided that the $200 million it had earmarked to build out electric vehicle charging across the state would be better served funding an “aerial highway network” of eVTOL flying taxis

I’m disgusted by this. GoFundMe for ICE killer of queer mom raises nearly $500K. He called his victim a “f**king b**ch” moments after shooting her repeatedly in the face. This shit murdered her because his feelings were hurt. Because he wasn’t getting the respect he thought he finally deserved.

“HIV has stubbornly resisted prevention via a vaccine. But in mRNA, scientists think they have finally found a technology to develop one. Funding for HIV research has been yanked away by the Trump administration, and mRNA vaccines have faced political scrutiny, all threatening this breakthrough. ”

An HIV vaccine is within reach — Vox

In January 2025, Linda-Gail Bekker stood inside a vaccine manufacturing plant and allowed herself to believe that the first HIV vaccine candidate conceived through African science and led by Africans ...

Boys, you’re being shown up by your girls. “Gen-Z women are paying for, and parenting, their boyfriends.” Guys, get off socials, turn off your console, and create an adult life that other people, and mates, can admire.

It’s been 120 this week. The Gambel’s Quail family is still here but sadly, smaller. They’ve only one of their brood who has survived. We keep several low dishes, really flower pot bases, sitting next to drip irrigation emitters so they’ve water. Plenty of leaf clutter under developed Hop bushes.

We’ve been frequently visited by Marilyn and Dan Quail this season as we’ve provided Quail Blocks in the backyard. This is what we found this morning.

On the slush fund today, and family IRS pass. "Todd Blanche was a voice of reason! It will immediately be back on the table, and I will get it done." He REALLY wants that “Get out of jail free” card from Blanche.

What would Jesus do. West Virginia Christian food bank’s shelves are empty after pastor rejects supplies from LGBTQ+ allies. He posted a video showing empty shelves after he decided he couldn’t take contributions from an organization that accepts LGBTQ+ people.

Todd Blanche claims there are "no leads" he can pursue related to the Epstein Files. There are over 3.5 million pages of the files. If that's genuinely what he believes, he's clearly NOT fit to be Attorney General.

In October 2024, during an interview with Tucker Carlson, Musk was asked what would happen to him if Trump lost the election. "If he loses, I'm fucked," he said. "How long do you think my prison sentence is going to be? Will I see my children? I don't know."
