Father of a seven year old girl with the biggest heart. Scared about the future... her future. With fear for democracy around the world I dissent.

Seeing lots of people expressing concern over the second-degree murder charge in Minnesota. This is the highest available charge- the Minnesota statute is unusual and there is nothing odd at play here.

Bitch, you've had several marriages over ten businesses fail. You've hired countless people you had to fire for their incompetence. And you thought you were going to win in 2020. Leave predicting the future to your fellow con artists, like Miss Cleo.

I called my senators today and told them I want Cory Booker to be the senate minority leader.
We can’t hold hearings. We don’t have subpoena power. We can’t pass budgets. But we CAN filibuster, and we CAN change party leadership.

Waltz must resign.
Hegseth must resign.
There must be accountability for this Administration’s dangerous disregard for our national security.

I want to sincerely thank every single one of my Senate Democratic colleagues who came to the floor, not to just support me, but to share incredibly powerful stories and ask important questions their constituents want answers to.

As he began speaking on the Senate floor Monday night, Cory Booker said that he intended to disrupt “the normal business of the Senate for as long as I am physically able,” citing his belief that “our nation is in crisis.”
He wasn’t kidding.

Poor Stefanik. All that ass kissing and personality changing just to lose her leadership position and get her nomination pulled.
Anyway, I had Greek yogurt for breakfast. With blueberries.
