If telling the troops not to follow illegal orders is “sedition,” what do we call colluding with the Kremlin to manipulate the U.S. President into advancing Russian interests over America’s?

Imagine paying a large monthly fee to shop at a supermarket, then paying again for the actual groceries, then getting an extra charge months later because one ingredient in an item you bought came from a farmer associated with a different store.

This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

I do not understand why European leaders allow djt to pretend he's an honest peace broker. djt does not have European or Ukrainian best interests at the front. History will reveal djt's Russian connections to be vast and detrimental to the US and European security.

Happy Thanksgiving! This year I'm especially thankful. I have wonderful neighbors. My family and long-time friends have passed, or, my liberal self is dead to MAGAs. My Korean, Indian, et al immigrant neighbors filled my refrigerator, pantry, and my heart this week! Their generosity is overwhelming

Everyone is looking for someone to blame for the DC National Guard shooting. Instead of that wasted energy, we should be asking the question nobody is asking, how did the shooter get his guns? What can we do as a country to make gun violence less likely?

I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.

It says a lot about our country that the FBI had no interest in interviewing Brett Kavanaugh but wants to talk to Mark Kelly.

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.
If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

This is who she was.
Passionate in her beliefs. Fiercely loyal to her friends. Never afraid to let you know exactly where she stood. The best.
Fun Fact: I remember arguing with her over which of us hated Piggy the most. I was sure I did. She disagreed. It remains unresolved...

We are afraid for our immigrant neighbors. Most are naturalized citizens. Some are legal residents, some have legal work visas. All are kind, generous, caring patriots! Not much fear from ICE as we're in a red area of a red state. But fear from racist bigoted citizens.

My heart is filled with gratitude. Thanks to my sweet neighbors, my place today smells of bacon and fresh brewed coffee! I haven't been able to afford bacon or coffee since tariffs. In past better days I was a giver. I'm not familiar being the receiver.

I am so thankfull! My dear Korean neighbor has introduced me to a variety of healthy Korean foods - some that she cooks and others that she buys prepared and shares! bibim mandu, Kimbap, goguma, chamoe, dotori muk, yachaejeon. She doesn't know I'd go hungry without her and the food pantry!

Treas Sec Bessent claims prices are going down. Has he shopped for toy, or groceries, or paid utility bills, or put gas in his car? Not likely. Maybe he's talking about prices he would be familiar with - like yachts! or mansions!
