Religion is often the handmaiden of authoritarianism & Trump is pushing a white Christian Nationalism agenda.

Trump is unstable, unpredictable, and too emotionally fragile. He’s willing to jeopardize $3.6 billion in daily trade between the US and Canada over a television ad.

We must take away the remote and his authority to impose tariffs on a whim.

Dear Democratic Senators: if you vote for this selling out of the ACA it will be the end of your careers. Depend upon it. You are there to defend this country against Trump and the fascists, not collude with them. If you become Quislings, you will forever REMAIN Quislings

I voted NO. As long as there is still any time left to reverse the MAGA health care hike, I believe we should do everything we can to force Republicans to the negotiating table.

If you're considering Trump's federal employee buyout, know that you deserve better than to have a billionaire with no real understanding of what you do, come in, belittle your work, & try to push you out the door—whether you're a food safety inspector or an air traffic controller.

I want to see this shutdown ended as soon as possible.

What we need is an agreement that will protect health care for the American people.

But if there's no legislation that will pass the House and be signed by President Trump, it will simply be meaningless gesture.

I’m no great fan of the ACA.

I believe we should guarantee health care as a human right through a single-payer Medicare for All system.

But — at minimum — we cannot allow Republicans to destroy our already-broken system by doubling insurance premiums for 20 million Americans.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

I went out to shoot the moonrise tonight and unfortunately it was obscured by clouds. But as I walked back over the bridge the color went crazy in the sky and the reflection over our town for about 90 incredible seconds. Tap for full size. I hope you have had a great day!

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106.

12 days of work in 106 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
