I’m waiting for many revelations to come out of the closet woodwork.
Sunday Morning and just thinking about John Lewis Can't stop thinking how SCOTUS ..Six Justices DELIBERATELY GUTTED the VOTING RIGHTS ACT.. Can't stop thinking of the millions who fought for & were beaten.. some died John Lewis "The right to vote is precious, almost sacred" Good Trouble NOW !
Thankfully John Lewis is not here to see what the CORRUPT Supreme Court has done to the Civil Rights Voting Rights Act‼️ Heartbreaking 💔 #AmericaTheRacist
Here’s a question for legal scholars, especially those of Constitutional law: can Congress pass a law that nullifies/repeals/overturns a SCOTUS decision? I have yesterday’s VRA hollowing-out decision, or the Citizens United decision in mind.
What if the Nobel Prize organization created a War Prize? Would Trump be satisfied by winning it?
After the White House complained about an unflattering photo of Karoline Leavitt, it was removed from AFP and Getty’s systems. This is the photo in question. Please do not repost it. 👇
The FEC reporting deadline can’t come soon enough.

Can’t say I’m a fan of Bad Bunny, but if he annoys white supremicists and Christo-fascists, more power to him.
Ok, the Hellman’s/Neil Diamond commercial tickled my funny bone.
I live in Minnesota. Last Tuesday night we held our precinct caucuses. I signed up to be a delegate. Earlier tonight I received a phone call from an actual candidate thanking me for my participation in democracy. This is a great country, and Minnesota is a great state.
Can I see just one touchdown in this game? Doesn’t matter which team.
As a man, I found the “tight end“ commercial very funny.
What percentage of the population has to support a movement before it is no longer considered radical? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind.
Can we move the 2026 midterm elections up to February?
Has anyone heard from Merrick Garland today? Shouldn't he be under a suicide watch?
Yes, Mr. Lennon, I do say I want a revolution. Change my mind.
I have recently become a big fan of the French Revolution.
I am highly dismayed that many of my relatives and friends are being radicalized by moderates and the status quo. They keep under-reacting to the news if they pay attention to it at all.
Today, my wife and I left NYC after visiting a few days, but stopped at Liberty State Park in NJ where we viewed the Statue of Liberty. She greeted so many "teeming masses, yearning to breathe free," like my Great-grandparents in 1910. Later in the day I learned of an ICE abduction of a man from 1/2
The American Federation of Gov Employees issued a press release (11/6/25) opposing AFGE Pres. Kelley's call for a "clean" end to the shutdown. The union MUST "hold the line" for a budget that secures affordable healthcare & collective bargaining rights before restoring paychecks. Do not surrender.
