We can't erase cruelty, bitterness, and callousness from the psyches of those infected with it.
All we can do is
1) be the best, bravest, most astute and generous people we can be,
2) find others like us, and
3) lock arms with them to form a sturdy structure that people can flee to for shelter.

Trump & Epstein were named as co-defendants in a lawsuit accusing them of raping 13 year old Katie Johnson. She ended up dropping the lawsuit after receiving death threats for her & her family.
This is not new evidence.
This cannot be covered up.

whatever it takes to get rid of her works for me. However, I worry that whoever replaces her will be as bad or worse…
I agree that Noem should resign and be criminally charged (I mean, I’d prefer several other things, but I would settle for that) but I think it’s important to say that there’s no number of resulting arrests that would make this raid defensible or any less of a heinous moral atrocity
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem should resign and be criminally charged, according to critics who seized on a report revealing that zero people who were arrested in a high-profile raid were charged with a crime.

The only thing Republicans have made progress on is in finding new ways to appear like jackbooted thugs.
NEW: Republicans demand tougher abortion restrictions to extend Obamacare funds
This demand spans Senate leadership to Finance Cmte to proponents of ACA money.
Dems say hell no, current Hyde protections suffice.
"It's a nonstarter," Shaheen tells me.

While they’re still screwing about with SNAP, it’s a good idea to donate to pet shelters, too.
If you dare show up with “poor people shouldn’t have pets”, I will tear such a new one it generates a black hole.

Families on SNAP worry about not just feeding themselves but also their pets
With SNAP benefits going out late, nonprofits are begging for pet food donations to prevent desperate owners from surrendering their dogs and cats to animal shelters.

SNAP benefits are under attack during this government shutdown and food banks are picking up the slack.
But they need your help. Here are the best ways to do that:
