I’ve been thinking about how hard the founding fathers cooked with the Third Amendment.
Imagine being forced to house ICE. I can’t imagine they wash their hands. They’ve never done laundry in their lives. They’d break your stuff if you didn’t cut the crusts off their sandwiches.

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

This afternoon, I sat with Palestinian New Yorkers in Astoria and listened to what they and their families have endured as the genocide in Gaza continues, funded by our government.
In the face of immeasurable grief, they have showed unbreakable resilience.

Both deaths are linked to oysters harvested in Louisiana, but the oysters were eaten at separate restaurants in Louisiana and Florida.

When a president decides to disregard the will of the American people, you’re right, that’s the mark of authoritarian rule. The White House has notified Congress that it plans to cancel $4.9 billion in foreign aid funding that lawmakers had already approved, doing so without their consent.

Aaaah! My script got chosen as one of the plays in an upcoming staged reading which means the odds are really good that it will get a full production in the future! I'm a playwright! 😲🤯
