Yeah this
Just so we’re clear -
Any party telling you who you can love, what gender you are, which medicine you can take, which books you can read, which history you can learn, what prayers you should pray and what you can and cannot do with your own body, doesn’t give a fuck about freedom.

Are there any Republicans in leadership coming out blatantly racist most of our president?

Having a very frustrating evening and then ended up in great texting conversations with three really good friends, separately. Feeling much more positive.

The Epstein files should be the headlines every day. So many powerful men have gotten away with the worst. The victims deserve justice.

Really like him
“The hate gets more powerful with more hate. The only thing that is more powerful than hate is love. If we fight, we have to do it with love. We don’t hate them, we love our people, we love our family, and that’s the way to do it — with love."

This is awful! Loved her work
O’Hara was incredible forever, on SCTV, the Christopher Guest movies, Beetlejuice, Home Alone, etc. But she didn’t become as famous as her talent warranted until her 60s. Suddenly it was like everyone caught up to her, and she could’ve worked forever. To have her taken away at this moment? No.

Husband and I coming in first in the mile run for our age group and gender, and placing in some of the other age groups. The person who actually shows in first in my age group did not run it in 343.😂

So many of you here have been with me for these 10 years. Feels about right?

Stephen Miller. Is. Evil.
This is a welcome step towards de-escalation in Minnesota. It’s not sufficient. The reckless and unchecked enforcement actions that we've witnessed from federal agents must be reined in.

What about Stephen Miller.

Don’t look away.
A US lawyer reveals the sounds coming out of the regime’s concentration camps, where women and children have been kidnapped to, their health and safety status largely unknown. You can hear them begging for help. #3E #GoodvsEvil

At the very least, call your reps. Right now, the Senators.
Now is the time to apply pressure on House and Senate members facing the voters (including the feckless Collins) to cut off funds to lawless street thugs. open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

Remember Alex
Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

Enjoying a little getaway in North Carolina! But still reading the news. Sigh.

It's been five weeks now and they still haven't fully released the Epstein files as required by law because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

Sol got most saucy footwork for the paper plate awards at her college showcase club! And then a really sweet recognition from the club manager about how they saw on her what other clubs didn’t, and they were right! ❤️ more so, her her last club truly focused on the girls and uplifting and it showed
