I live in Alaska. Raised in California. I love California but moved up here to get away from the heat and fires. I love to garden, make sourdough bread, and play the violin.

It is clearly deeply annoying for a sociopath when a human collapses nearby and distracts attention from him.

Let’s recognize the good work that good legislators are trying to do.
We’re fighting back against Trump & Hegseth’s Orwellian censorship crackdowns. My legislation with @houlahan.house.gov restores banned books to schools for children of our servicemembers, protecting students’ right to read, think and read.

They’re even turning on their own. Texas Republican Ted Cruz slammed FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, calling his behavior “mafia-like” and warning that Carr’s threats to retaliate against media companies for their programming were “dangerous as hell.”

Ted Cruz cautioned that the administration's threats against the media posed a risk to free speech protections in the First Amendment.

Just cancelled my Hulu account which included Disney+ and ESPN, all of which are part of the Disney/ABC conglomerate.

Thank you Jimmy Kimmel for standing for our country.

URGENT: This is not a crime

A judge has the authority in her courthouse to excuse a defendant for God's sake

Trump tried this in 1st term & he was thrown out of court 👉 www.courtlistener.com/docket/14997...

PS the violation here was Patel's tweet & that's why he deleted. I'll be filing complaint

Through all his troubles, neither the DOJ/FBI nor any state authorities ever subjected Donald Trump to arrest, preferring in every case to proceed by indictment and voluntary surrender. It’s notable that a sitting judge and pillar of the Milwaukee community was not extended the same courtesy.

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act.

Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes?
Staffer: a DL and birth certificate.
Me: The documents don’t match
Staffer: Then a marriage certificate.
Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too?
Staffer: No
Me: See the problem?
