I'm a lifelong Democrat in Colorado, former Texan. I'm passionate about animal/human rights, democracy and the environment - and terrified about how the next 4 years will affect this country. Glad to be here! Please, no DMs.
Texas has one of the highest property tax rates in the country.

Remove him from office.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.
Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.
So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

It's increasingly clear that the president lives in a constructed bubble of unreality designed by aides who are manipulating him in order to take control of US policy. Seems like an important story - wish media would cover it.

Reminder that support for war crimes on TV was Hegseth's only qualification for the job; it's the only reason Trump knew he existed.
Secretary of War Crimes is the job he was auditioning for during his career as a drunken talking head on Fox.

Hegseth: "We unleash overwhelming and punishing violence on the enemy. We also don't fight with stupid rules of engagement. We untie the hands of our warfighters to intimidate, demoralize, hunt, and kill the enemies of our country. No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement."

This Tylenol saga illustrates two ancient primary tenets of Christianity - subservience of women and demonization of science. Most press seems focused on how they are just ignorant quacks, but I think it has far more to do with Project 25/religion than that...

I don't trust the FBI, and TX law enforcement always lies about shootings to fit their agenda and/or cover up their gross incompetence!

We live in a country where the president can order a comedian to be yanked off TV. What I describe is not a democracy.

I looked up which drugs Big Pharma makes the most $$ on - it includes Ozempic, Wegovy...and Paxlovid. Less covid vaccines = more people on Paxlovid, I assume.

Trump has to be stopped NOW!
The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents.
In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.
