Grateful for the opportunity to visit with the hardworking folks at NOAA in Boulder & drop off some breakfast items.
As we grapple with the Republican-initiated government shutdown, I hope you’ll join me in thanking & supporting the Federal workers being impacted — we owe them a debt of gratitude!

The ICE Gestapo is dangerous, and out of control.
These are the people who would star in their own backyard tactical course videos. You know the ones where they accidentally discharge their firearms and nick their foot.
They're not LEOs of any form. They're human traffickers.

We’re protesting outside the Broadview ICE facility and an agent came out to tell us to go away.
We said we’re exercising our First Amendment rights so he shot the ground with pepper balls and said, “Your First Amendment rights are on the sidewalk.”

According to the New York Times, "The text exchange between Mr. Robinson and his partner was reproduced by prosecutors in the charging document."
Reproduced? So no one has seen the actual messages? No screen shots? No time stamps? Also, weren't they on Discord and not SMS? 1/

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

For Charlie Kirk’s sake, we should all tone down the political rhetoric, right?

This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime.
A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering.

Can you hit repost? Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want you to know the name of her opponent but will try every desperate attempt to save her seat.
My name is Shawn Harris. I am a Democrat, husband, father, Retired Brigadier General, farmer, and I'm running against MTG. Can you share and follow me?

It was always free with cans of food as donation for local charities.
