On this Veterans Day, I’m thinking of those I’ve served beside-who gave everything, even when the mission was flawed. And of Gaza, where we’re once again trying to build peace on question marks & wishful thinking. To those who serve and have served: thank you for your courage & resilience.
Trump Promised Peace for Gaza. The Documents Tell a Different Story.
The Gaza peace deal looks less like diplomacy and more like déjà vu.

I'm warm. I'm nostalgic. Missing my Dad & Mom (1.18 & 7.28. 2020). Rest in Peace, good peeps. You'd dislike what 2025 America is, considering what you endured prior to your deaths. This time around is much, much worse. ☘️♥️💙 ☮️

Why are ICE agents being paid during the shutdown, but not air traffic controllers? 🤨

This coming from the man who’s literally pushing red states to gerrymander Democrats into oblivion so he doesn’t get demolished at midterms.

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.
The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.
They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.
Wanna fix fraud and abuse?
Fix that.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.
12 days of work in 103 days.
With full pay and benefits.
The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.
It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions
"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"
