Mike Johnson: "What happened last night is blue states and blue cities voted blue. We all saw that coming. And no one should read too much into last night's election results."

Last night while dining on a restaurant patio I saw a middle-grade kid point-out a praying mantis to a teen kid, who promptly thumped it off the window. It looked injured on the ground. I yelled, “HEY! Don’t do that! You are a thousand times bigger than that bug. Why would you do that?!” 🧵

The admin takes a page from the New Deal but pays skilled soldiers to do work they could pay homeless and unemployed people to do at a fraction of the cost.

Disappointed in the new #Superman movie as he, in fact, does NOT have speakers three stories high with woofers made of steel. Nor does anyone rock his butt with a 12 inch cut called Disco Kryptonite.

Crazy story: yesterday night as we left a restaurant in Sacramento, we saw a man crouching under my car looking for a kitten who had run under, into the engine undercarriage. We opened the hood & used our cell lights to locate the cat. We got a broom from the restaurant to coax the cat out. 🧵

Reminder that I AM LATINA AND PROUD. I am the product of immigration - my grandmother was undocumented and entered the country from Mexico as a baby. My mother was a fierce, gorgeous Latina woman of Mexican and Spanish descent.

So the president creates problems with his myopic and ignorant leadership, then wants applause for reversing the plans. It’s basically Munchausen syndrome by president. 😂 #whatamaroon 🐰

What @terrymoranabc.bsky.social said was entirely true. But the White House asking for his dismissal is *exactly” how fascism works: silence dissenters with threats. #ABCNews caving is how fascism continues when organizations lack backbones and the commitment to truth.

I’d suggest that American women unite and go Lysistrata on all this wannabe GIJoeICE BS, but I think many of those guys are already 1ncels.
