She/her/hers. Childless cat lady. Charter member of Pussies Against Trump. Watches too much figure skating. Writing novels and looking for beta readers. If the Department of Education dies, special education goes away. Don't let it happen.

occurs to me that some of those annoying pundits who like to say bluesky is boring have been blocked by so many people that their timeline is actually pretty darn sparse 🤷

Why does she want her sentence commuted? From what I hear about the treatment she's receiving now, being set free and checking into a 5-star hotel would be a lifestyle downgrade for her.
Ghislaine Maxwell is right now seeking a commutation of her 20 year sentence. Sordid🤬🤬

“Accomplice to MASS sexual abuser Jeffrey Epstein.”
“Serving a 20-year prison sentence for her role in Epstein’s extensive trafficking scheme.”
“The disgraced financier facilitated the abuse of 1,000 G.I.R.L.S!”

I don't know when I'll write it up, but among the things Rudy Giuliani got pardoned for is destroying the lives of Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss.

A federal judge just slammed the government for "sending threatening letters on a Saturday night" demanding states "undo" SNAP payments.

"It's hard to see how this is not being used as a leverage point," the judge said. "People are hungry right now."

Don't suppose he ever heard that line about how faith without works is dead
A pastor in a social experiment said churches aren’t obligated to do charity. As someone raised Jesuit, that blew my mind. In my house, my abuela fed anyone who was hungry—no sermons, no judgment. We I might be atheist now, but those Jesuit values of service and dignity still guide me.

entirely possible some senators experienced some flight issues getting home and decided selling out the entire American healthcare system for the poor was a reasonable trade for fixing it

My husband planned to retire in December. I'm not eligible for Medicare until Aug so I planned to get an Obamacare policy. I found one in Oct that was $800/month. Now it's $2000/month.

So now my husband isn't going to retire. I hate Trump & GOP so much.

I get angry with dems at times because I expect better out of them. I dont expect an ounce of decency, decorum, or dignity out of the gop. I'll always fight to elect democrats period. Repubs are the culprits for this mess we are in, however I'm tired of dems always having to save the day.

I don’t care if Schumer voted no. If he’s unable to wrangle the caucus, he’s not an effective leader. I’ll continue to push for the caucus to elect a new one.

Rep. Hinojosa never wanted to run for office—and once even made her husband promise he never would either.

But things began to change when the state threatened her kid’s school with closure.

Now she’s running for governor👇
