Consistently, fervently and genuinely Angie. Raised two great humans, and leaning into “next.” Fun combo of sarcasm, silliness, actually thinking and blue rage. A deeply rooted blue weed in Indiana.

In a world where a country with so much potential could do anything… I find myself just exhausted and embarrassed and angry. I don’t really “do” angry, yet here we are.

I don’t understand in a country so blessed scarcity has taken such a strong hold that we offer up human rights to quell it.

He doesn’t care about respect…
If Trump wants respect, he can start by respecting the laws of this country and ending his coup. indivisible.org/coup...

4 paradigms: patriarchy, capitalism, white supremacy, & Christianity are trying to seize power over the people who live in the U.S.

They want to exploit our every need for profit.

Deny us our culture, diversity, values, & voices.

Turn us into empty consumers.

It's a long journey towards reform.

Winston Churchill was right: "Democracy is the worst form of government except for all those other forms that have been tried.”

Too many Americans have fought and died defending democracy. We must stand with our European allies against the authoritarianism of Putin and Trump.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Democrats must make clear that, of course, we believe in changing government for the better - and show how different that is from Trump's destruction of government's capacity to protect workers, consumers, and families.

MAGA Legacy…
Disengaged and under-informed enough to support complete loss of freedom in exchange for open sexist and racist ideals that ultimately will destroy the US. Still naive enough to think Musk is “looking for something” to make us great again. Must be Proud girls and Boys.

Help me out… better roads and bridges = happier families who still can’t afford housing, eggs or gasoline to drive on said roads. Welcome to the clown car administration.
The US DOT says it's planning to prioritize areas with high marriage & high birth rates for funding.

Our new analysis @urbaninstitute.bsky.social shows this would disproportionately fund:
—Communities with a higher white resident share
—Low-density areas
—High-income areas
—Car-dependent areas
DOT’s Plan to Distribute Funding by Birth and Marriage Rates Would Leave Communities Most In Need Behind
If enacted, the new US Department of Transportation memo would prioritize funding to whiter, higher-income, more car-dependent areas over communities of color and people who walk, bike, or take public...

Waiting for that moment… the one where the MAGAs realize that draining the swamp includes gutting the government programs they rely on as well… to pay the Bros. They thought it meant those “others”… not them going down the drain too.

just start saying this plainly to more people

i'm serious.
The constitution quite clearly gives Congress the power of the purse, a power the Executive branch is pretending it now has.

Or did you not pay attention at all in school?

For 10 years, I worked all hours and sacrificed my personal life to run a 99 seat non-profit theatre. In the back half of my tenure, I didn't take a vacation in 6 years!

The LEAST our senators and reps could do is WORK LATE ON A FRIDAY WHILE THE GOVERNMENT IS BEING DISMANTLED.
