I’m a liberal retired CSI from a large Ca. City. Paramedic before that. I dedicated over 30 yrs to the people of my city and loved every minute.
I hope I live long enough to experience a sane government again.
What the hell is a caba bag!!!

Lighten up about 86!
The restaurant industry is not the only place where it’s used. It ONLY means to THROW (it, her, him, the bum, etc)OUT!
Stop insinuating that it has anything to do with violence.

“By now, we would have a search and rescue team of hundreds of people on the ground in Myanmar, digging people out of rubble. Now all we’re told is, ‘we may be able to send three people there.’”
Without USAID, Myanmar is struggling to recover from its massive earthquake
“We have the capacity to save lives, and the choice has been not to use it,” said the former head of the agency's Myanmar mission.

The world-leading unit helping to rescue Ukrainian children stolen by Russia has been axed amid Musk’s slashing of US government spending. It had been funding a specialist team based at Yale University, who used open source technology to trace thousands of lost children and help repatriate them.

Elon Musk, DOGE, and MAGA are back to lying about FEMA disaster funds going to immigrants.

The SSP program gives grants to shelters to house migrants and immigrants.

That funding was passed by Congress.

It's separate from FEMA's disaster funds for hurricanes, also funded by Congress.

Big ups to @signal.org @meredithmeredith.bsky.social for allowing usernames instead of phone numbers last year (signal.org/blog/phone-n...).

Washington basically runs on Signal right now and that one change has made reporting and whistleblowing way more private and secure.
