Microscopist - neuroscientist - gardener - mother - and all zen on the outside. Seething inside that collectively we fail to see the worth of each human, creature, and being with whom we cohabitate on this precariously delicate and unique planet 🌱

YES! I wholeheartedly support blue states banning together to COLLECT our federal income taxes to hold in escrow for release upon fair, open midterm elections! WE CAN’T TRUST 47 AND HIS THUGS TO LEAVE OUR ELECTIONS ALONE! States should use their National Guard to protect polls, ballot boxes from 47!

The audio and the smirking are even more chilling than text. Mike Johnson can barely keep a straight face. Disgraceful
“ICE is doing what ICE is designed to do” played over video of ICE engaging in acts of violence should be the wall to wall DNC media strategy right now
Mike Johnson comes out against additional guardrails on ICE as Democrats call for it.

“I think there's a lot of Democrats playing games right now with national security and with law enforcement. And I think it's dangerous. Ice is doing what ice is designed to do by its very name.”

Previous to the FDA, folks would put chalk and plaster of Paris in milk to make it appear white. They could also add formaldehyde to cover the smell and taste of spoiled milk.
