I enjoy my little family, sitting fireside, reading books, and making lists. I drink coffee and hot tea. I love marshes, but I loathe mosquitoes. #DAMES

Despite @aftynbehn.bsky.social generating real excitement with an authentic progressive anti-corruption message and getting closer than anyone in #TN7, *experts* are already dropping predictable “a centrist would’ve done better” takes - as though that hasn’t been tried here many times.

Trump is complaining he's not happy about Israel the same way he complains he's not happy when Putin continues to bomb.
What he's saying is not "I am not happy," but, "I am impotent to persuade you to change your behavior and mad that you made me look bad."

Well, his administration just denied the state’s request for continued FEMA relief assistance.
