Lover of scifi and historic fiction, haiku, senryu and short poetry and thoughtful discussion of life and truth - my favorite things.
The Congress, the cabinet, the courts are failing. We the People are all that’s left. We cannot fail. It’s not about a ballroom. It’s about Trump abandoning Ukraine, invading and extorting Venezuela, starting a pointless war in Iran. We need a Dem House and Senate. That guy must be stopped.

Vote early in person if you can. Use a drop box or drop off your ballot if you need to. Mail in as early as possible, if you must use USPS. We have not yet seen the worst of the extent officials will go to to accommodate and enable our orange Mussolini.
Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 2d agoBREAKING: A U.S. Postal Service official has alleged that the agency is moving forward with a “secretive rushed” effort to implement Trump’s order exerting federal control over mail voting, despite a court order blocking those plans. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/01/u...
Zero confirmed leaders. Ponder that. Then vote - early in person if you can. Don’t leave yourself open to Trump’s post office manipulation.
Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 3d agoBREAKING: Army Secretary Dan Driscoll RESIGNS. Driscoll is the guy Buria told to approve certain firings because "Trump won't want to stand next to Black female officers." The Army now has ZERO Senate-confirmed civilian or military leaders. www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” Matthew 6:5-6
If Nancy Pelosi had repeatedly told reporters she had no idea what was going on around her, the coverage would have been unsparing and vicious.

Raise the top income tax rate, corporate tax rate and add a wealth tax to pay for it. And provide universal health care. And augment social security. And retire the national debt. Retire at least 1% of principal every year and interest due will fall naturally.
Joe Walsh@walshfreedom.bsky.social · 2d agoThe Supreme Court today said the current president had the unilateral authority to tear down the East Wing of the White House and build a monstrous ballroom. That means the next president will have the unilateral authority to rebuild the East Wing and tear down the monstrous ballroom.
Thank you to the USPS whistleblower. May your courage be contagious.
Good morning. A little help for Hump Day.
