My hubby and I rewatched Wag the Dog this weekend. A blast from the past? Other than the dated clothing, hair, and early cell phones, could be right out of today’s political news… ugh.

Heading out later today! #NoKings

Dear Ted Cruz - I’m funding my own No Kings protest today - I bought my own poster board and sharpies.

Here's a readable version of the image :)

Administrators at Indiana University baselessly fired the student media director and ordered the student paper to cease its print edition, so it'd sure be a shame if this excellent digital front page were to be widely shared today

It drives Jonathan Turley crazy when I remind everyone that he is just Mike Lindell with tenure. So, please make sure not to amplify this message.👇

Jonathan Turley is just Mike Lindell with tenure.

I’m headed to a No Kings protest tomorrow utilizing my 1A right. Not headed to a riot, in insurgence or an insurrection. Sure hope the local authorities know the difference too.

Let me summarize how I think this moves forward: act lawlessly, go to court, be told it’s lawless, ignore, no consequences because there are no lawmen/woman remaining after being fired & GOP looks the other way. Game over. Authoritarian control. Bye constitution…too negative??

@jimacosta.bsky.social If what I’m hearing about CNN’s efforts to squash (silence?) you are true, there’s a better place for you and your talent. I’d watch you elsewhere… I’ve given up on CNN.

@bunsenbernerbmd.bsky.social Thanks for telling us about Kuno in your newsletter. I’m no longer at the other place so was not aware. That news is heartbreaking 💔.

So our dog’s person, our college student, arrived home tonight after studying abroad since August, and the hubs and I are now feeling bad because her dog has fallen asleep in our room when I know my daughter is disappointed that she’s not with her. Ugh changes ☹️.

It’s certainly brisk weather in Amsterdam but that blue sky is a welcomed sight! Happy Turkey Day, America.

I have a daughter studying abroad this semester; she had voted for her first time by absentee ballot. Now she’s asking if she can stay there…🙄🙄. I get that.
