Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head.

Two years ago today we were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for protecting The US Capitol on January 6th 2021. Almost 4 years later the efforts to downplay, whitewash and minimize what happened appear to be succeeding. I won't ever stop standing up to them.

Good morning from the frozen South! The alpacas (which love and are built for the overnight low of 23 degrees as have) had a layer of frost on their fiber. It didn’t pick up well on camera but they glittered in the sunshine.

'I can't pay my bills,' Rudy Giuliani says in courtroom outburst
Rudy Giuliani was rebuked by a federal judge on Tuesday after the former New York City mayor interrupted a court hearing, pleading he could not pay his bills because two Georgia election workers to whom he owes $148 million have tied up his assets.

When I think about Joe & Mika appeasing Trump so they can maintain their comfy lives, I think about Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss enduring years of harassment for simply doing their jobs.
So when Joe defends it by saying people need to live in the real world, he should respectfully go screw himself.
