This extremely sweet man was brought back from foster today; he's been there several months (may be a sitter stay for the holidays). SNAP HIM UP, Austin! Perfect family boy. Come and get him.

As I sit here feeding another outdoor cat that could be a stray or someones pet....I get more pissed off.

Stop letting your cats be outdoor.
It's bad for their health.

If you can't handle entertaining your cat indoors, than dont have one.

Just ugh.Pisses me off so much.
Forever anti-outdoor cats.

He'll start a war to:

1. Distract from the Epstein Files
2. Steal oil
3. Justify emergency powers
4. Justify use of the AEA for deportation/internment
5. Help the drug lord he just pardoned

We know the VA system has flaws, but cutting ~35,000 jobs, including doctors, nurses and other clinical staff, isn’t likely to help, even if some roles have been vacant for a year (since the admin started slashing gov jobs…)

Veterans, has your care experience changed this year vs. in years past?
US Veterans Affairs to remove 25,000 unfilled jobs
The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs will remove about 25,000 open and unfilled positions, a spokesperson said, adding that they were "COVID-era roles that are no longer necessary."

Watch this. Then remember that the president doesn’t care. He cares that his old ass gets richer in the hand full of years he may have left.

And his sick rich friends. The most corrupt evil man to ever serve as president is ignoring real evil
💔 A European Parliament interpreter could not hold back tears during the speech of 11-year-old Roman Oleksiv from Lviv.

The boy survived a missile strike on Vinnytsia on July 14, 2022, which killed his mother - it was the last time he saw her alive.

I appreciate everyone’s support here— nearly 40k 😳
But surely, my dear library friends, there should be at the very least equivocal support given to OG @librarycongress.bsky.social, give them a follow if you would be so inclined? 📚 ♥️ 🙏

I'm not really crazy about the Saudis getting access to our stealth tech, at all. We taxpayers paid billions of dollars over dozens of years to develop this tech and in Saudi Arabia it will easily end up in Beijing and Moscow. Currently all they really have is a few parts from the F117, Gen 1 stuff.

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Can anyone in the Texas area help these poor souls?
Just like that the good time is over and it's back to reality. Just had a post pop up from DeKalb County Animal Control. They are over by 50 dogs. Tomorrow they end that problem in the worst way. When the economy tanked pets were one of the first expenses shed. I hate Trump.

These motherfuckers! PLEASE call your House representatives and demand they vote NO on this piece of shit legislation. Not only is there this part but it would also require senators to be notified if they’re being investigated. So they can destroy evidence. No fucking way.
Rich off our taxpayer money!!!!

This is robbery at its finest.
