Wife, Mom, Grandma, and retired teacher trying to keep it together during this crazy chaos

I thought after retirement I could finally go to Washington DC, and I would be a travel as a proud tourist. Well,damn! I’m too late! The WH looks like crap and Washington DC is full of gross DT propaganda. I’m so angry. How do our elected officials allow this?

Someone please explain this to me- I’m an English major not an economist. We, the consumers paid extra because of tariffs. Supreme Court tells DT that tariffs are illegal. So businesses got money. WTF? Why aren’t consumers getting the money? I’m so sick of this bs.

I’m not a Spring Chicken; however, I knew when to retire from teaching- we just start missing a step. Can we agree if a person is over 80 they should not be in government anymore? How about using your expertise to mentor younger people who want to get into politics.

Congratulations Belgium! Let’s take a step Back - the players and coaches and most fans did not try to reverse the red card call. Please direct your anger to the person who deserves it- not the USA players!

The loyalist may win the primary, but most will be doomed during the general election! I’m so angry after all of the BS this admin gets away with- don’t give up the fight friends! apnews.com/live/electio... elections live updates: Gallrein defeats Massie in Kentucky, furthering Trump’s hold on GOP

Can someone tell me what happens when a person lies under oath to congress? They lie, lie, and lie some more. No one seems to have any consequences. Is all of this just theater? Are we in a reality tv show?

Republicans think they can gerrymander to help them for the midterms. They underestimate how much they are despised and how most of us see them as incompetent, feckless, and useless at governing! Better get your resumes ready Republicans- there’s no way you still have a job. Bye bye!!

Why are there so many racists? Every day we wake up to the disgusting white supremacy! I’m so angry, sad, and embarrassed of what MAGA has done to our country.

On this day of the Met Gala I’m seething that billionaires and other countries totally capitulated. They groveled and brought their “trophies” to gain favor. People with this much wealth have to give back to the country and its people who helped them achieve this. Trickle down economics is BS!

@actblueorg.bsky.social I saw a graphic showing money Republicans have in relation to Democrats for the mid-terms. I think most Democrats want to contribute (albeit it might be $10). I get at least 5-10 text messages and so many emails to donate daily. Can there be a drive that is more organized?

Remember the Westboro Baptist group? They protested at soldiers' funerals spewing hate. We may despise what people say, but it's our first amendment right! Why does this admin keep watching Kimmel? Don't they have a war to resolve? 47 needs more sleep less TV. www.uscourts.gov/about-federa...

Wow. It’s only rigged when he loses. How the hell did he win in ‘24 if Democrats cheat? Virginia cheated? Yet, it’s fine for Texas and Missouri to gerrymander like no one’s business!

I believe we need a mass action lawsuit against this administration. They have caused immeasurable trauma and stress because of their incompetence and cruelty!

Teaching a few Shakespeare plays to my high school students, Lindsey Graham is Cassius from “The Tragedy of Julius Caesar,” or Iago from “Othello.” Whispering evil to a person with power to attain their nefarious goals. Any other Shakespeare characters fit this description?

Damn it. We are totally repeating history. We went to war against Iraq because of weapons of mass destruction, terrorist groups, and evil leaders. We were in the Middle East for 20 years! Why do we keep doing this? There are tons of evil threats in the world. This is the biggest cluster f-ck!

Is anyone else torn with the Texas Senate race? Jasmine Crocket and Jane Talarico are amazing candidates! Good luck to both and thanks to you both, Texas might flip blue💙💙

I am that almost boomer who religiously watched 60 Minutes. No more. I’m not watching propaganda. So pathetic that we have this shell that used to be 60 Minutes.
