ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

Despite the trail being called the Spicebush Trail these random berries on the ground were the only sign of spicebush I found. When you break them open, there’s a black seed inside and they have that allspice/cinnamon/peppercorn smell!

Still questing for the elusive American Chestnut to forage. Didn’t find any this hike, but lots of other very cool plants other fascinating things for my very smelly dog to investigate!

Friendly reminder that Joann Fabrics isn’t closing because it’s a bad business. It’s closing bc it was bought by a private equity firm. This is also what is happening to Hooters and what happened to US Toys R Us and Red Lobster. These companies are being dismantled intentionally.

I love the trans pride flag colors but they do already have a strong association in my mind as a child of the ‘80s

Been posting videos on TikTok, figured I’ll post them here, too. I’m an Old and I don’t understand how any of this works.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

JoAnn’s nearby is closing so I went and snagged discounted pride yarn. Gonna knit all the scarves, or hats, or arm warmers, or socks, haven’t decided.

We have come up with a new name for a woman who works with the patriarchy to hurt other women, and that name is scab.

Just like scabs that cross a picket line and hurt their fellow laborers, scabs work with the patriarchy to take away women's rights.

Pam Bondi is a scab.

Nancy Mace contours her nose so dark she looks the Scarecrow from The Wizard of OZ
It's clear that this wasn’t just a simple uneducated misstep. Rep. Mace’s repeated use of an anti-trans slur is part of her hyper-calculated, pathetic scramble to viciously attack her transgender and LGBTQ constituents.

Anti-trans Republican Nancy Mace doubles down on dehumanizing transphobic slur during hearing
The GOP chair of the committee refused to condemn Mace's comments saying, “I’m not up to date on my politically correct LGBTQ terminology.”

I can’t pop off like I want to because I have kids and can’t go to jail, we don’t family nearby. But what I *want* to do is block the street with my car and dump manure outside to block the entrance and then spit in his face like Diogenes said.

time to primary your lazy senator, all you have to do is not say outright you are running (you are "launching an exploratory committee") and not spend $5,000 on it newrepublic.com/article/1909...
Primary Every Democrat
It’s exhausting to watch poll-tested, donor-beholden congressional Democrats continue to be too old, too cloistered, and too bumbling to do anything as the government burns.

Some have been so numbed to the creep of power that they keep asking what if this turns violent. Friends, it is violent.
ICE went to the home of a 61-year-old man with poor health and after his family informed ICE agents that they needed a warrant signed by a judge, dozens of ICE agents instead showed up in an armored vehicle with a battering ram and flash grenades and took him by force.
A family member is speaking out against an ICE operation in northwest Phoenix on Sunday, calling it an unnecessary use of force www.azcentral.com/story/news/p...
