Puppies Resisting a Red State 🚫👑🏳️‍🌈🐶👮‍♀️☮️📎

Resisting for 57 years since I was tear gassed peacefully protesting police brutality, Vietnam & Nixon at 14. A retired 🏳️‍🌈 cop now living in Florida enjoying gardening 🌸 Puppies 🐶 and Good Trouble. Vegetarian. I vet all, no posts. No follow. No DM’s. 🚫ICE.

And what is destroyed & what is lost with each day of this debacle? Trump and his administration are human lawnmowers. Everything is mowed down in it's path. The only thing left are weeds.

Stephen Colbert says he was told by CBS lawyers "in no uncertain terms" that he could not have Texas State Rep. James Talarico on his program.

"Because my network clearly doesn't want us to talk about this, let's talk about this."

Of course this will mostly affect women, drag queens, and MAGA women who wear heavily applied make up—looking at you Kristi Noem. The trump regime doesn’t give 2 💩 💩 about us and will remove rules that keep us safe.
The Trump administration withdrew a rule to make sure the products YOU use every day—like makeup and skincare—are tested for cancer-causing asbestos. Is this Making America Healthy Again??

Jeffrey Epstein kept getting invitations to events with members of Congress years after his first arrest — from a freshman rep’s breakfast to a senator’s fundraiser and birthday galas, showing how political insiders didn’t immediately cut him off.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis

Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.

We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

Yikes. 40% of respondents are either completely oblivious to what’s happening in this country or they like the cruelty.

Either way, Trump’s signature issue is sinking him.

America should be #1 in taking care of its people. Tax billionaires at the same rate as other wage earners and we become #1 in the categories that should matter to humanity.

There should not be one Democrat attending Trump’s State of the Union address. Instead, they should place a photo of an Epstein survivor on every chair.
This.

Every democrat attending that mess should bring a survivor with them.
If Democrats attend the State of the Union, they should invite an Epstein survivor as a guest.

If they skip the speech, they should invite an Epstein survivor to sit in their seat.

A two month old-detained in the ICE concentration camp at Dilley-was rushed to the hospital this weekend

The boy’s extreme youth made him particularly vulnerable in a prison setting

Worse, they knew he was sick-and couldn’t care for him-because the facility didn’t even have a doctor

For anyone keeping track of the Iran buildup, we’ve now sent more AWACS into theater.

Curious to see how tomorrow’s talks go, but it’s pretty clear the administration isn’t planning for them to be good.
