Don’t expect to win & be finished, & each defeat won't crush you. The battle 4 democracy will continue until Gaia kicks us out.

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 post is about healthcare.

There are so many righteous non-voters in America OR they voted for someone, ANYONE but those two women. I guess we deserve what we got. Welp, now we have to dig our way out without their help. Again.

How is it a punishment to require you to vote for anyone you actually want? That’s a punishment? Poor you. Horrible options “presented?” See this is the problem. We aren’t your parents offering broccoli or brussels sprouts. YOU run candidates or find candidates to work for and support. Do the work.

"Inside the White House, top advisers joke that they are ruling Congress with an “iron fist,” according to people who have heard the comments. Steve Bannon, the influential Trump ally, likened Congress to the Duma, the Russian assembly that is largely ceremonial."

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Some people are born to make trouble. You know you are Marge. Do it. Run for President!

Make some GOOD TROUBLE on your way out of the House! Also, get a voice coach. That would help you a lot.

Oh yes, And I promise. I’ll work for anyone who runs against you.
If MTG truly believes that she can run for president, she would do well to read the Epstein client list into the congressional record, then move to vacate the Speaker’s chair. Might as well go out with a bang.
