Wife, mom, retired! Love my dog. I used to be a blue dot in a red state, but that is a small designation. I am a proud progressive hoping to make a difference in this world. Absolutely no DM’s and No maga!

“The president demolished the White House.”

“The president politicized the FBI and DOJ to go after his opponents.”

“The president is why life is more expensive today.”

“The president was besties with Epstein.”

Messaging isn’t hard and makes you wonder why Dems aren’t saying this every day.

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

Never thought I would see the day when there was a Kennedy who I really thought should just go away. Alas, there are two of them (unrelated)-a cabinet level official and a US Senator. They need to find alternate employment or retire back under their rocks.

Vaccines are scrupulously and rigorously researched, trialed, tested and continuously monitored. I get a little tired repeating this but it’s important.

They are not the villain but the potentially fatal diseases they prevent are. I and my colleagues have seen them all.

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.

No refugee underfunded a school.

No refugee closed a hospital.

No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.

We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!

We’re finally on our own.
This summer I hear the drumming,
Four dead in Ohio.” Neil Young, 1970. Here we go again!

Feeling weary today! I am so tired of my senators, representatives, governor, president and more trying to tell me that my voice does not count. Or that my vote does not matter. It is hard to keep believing that I am somebody. But I will carry on!

Old white hippie here! I do not think we can rely on just peace and love this time. Resist!

I never want to lose at checkers again so, like redrawing maps to rig an election, I painted my board all black.

See how that works?

There is a good chance that the Texas legislature will give Abbott and trump what they want by passing their gerrymandering. I urge Texas voters to vote in every election and show them what Texans true desires are in our State. If we vote, we can have a Texas that is a great State.

If Texas doesn’t stop gerrymandering right now, this will turn into a national gerrymandering arms race. Stop redistricting, fund the flood relief.

Stop gerrymandering! It steals peoples votes. That’s it! That’s my post!

The Texas republican legislators are trying to suppress votes. But our heroic Democratic Representatives have broken quorum to stop the vote. 30 years of Repubs in power in this State have made a mess of things. We need change!

I am so very proud of our legislators here in Texas who have taken a stand and are taking risks to save voting rights for all of us in the Lone Star State.
