Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

So in 2026, the USPS will no longer process mail as it comes in. It will process mail when they feel like it. So they can deliver a letter or a package a month later. The Convicted FElon is doing this to prevent mail-in voting without outlawing it. He doesn't want the Democrats to win the Midterms.

“He was free to say that he thought he won the election — he was even free to say falsely that he won the election,” Mr. Smith said. “But what he was not free to do was violate federal law and use knowingly 19 false statements about election fraud to target a lawful government function.” #Pinks

Domestic violence increases by 10% primarily affecting women during NFL games.

"Every lockdown drill is a confession of failure. Every barricaded classroom is an indictment. Every child taught to hide is proof that the adults in charge have surrendered."
What Are We Doing to Our Children?
We taught kids to read, write, and dream; then trained them to hide, barricade, and bleed quietly while adults chose guns, cowardice, and silence over their future.

For those Republicans who say it is too soon to discuss the mass shooting at Brown, fine. Let’s talk about any of the other needless mass shootings that have previously taken place. How about Uvalde in 2022? Too soon? Ok. Parkland in 2018? No? Too fresh. Ok, how about f-n Columbine in 1999 then? 🤬

The Department of Education is parceling off its main offices and giving their responsibilities to other federal agencies.
Much of the funding for K-12 and colleges is being handed over to—wait for it—the Department of LABOR.
Because what else is education good for apart from producing workers?😞

Few people outside North Carolina have heard of Paul Newby, the chief justice of the state’s Supreme Court.
But Newby has had a huge impact on America and his state. He’s done this with the goal of delivering what he’s called “biblical justice, equal justice, for all.”
