To Democrats who didn't vote this November:

This is my mom, back in 2012. She was 85, nearly blind, and WE voted together. She moved to Tucson in 1950, and never missed an election. She passed away at 91.

I started voting in 1978, and have never missed an election.

My son has not missed a vote.

Another federal official is refusing to step aside after the White House tried to fire him: Robert E. Primus, a board member of the federal agency responsible for approving railroad mergers. “It’s illegal," he said of the move. "The president cannot remove me arbitrarily."

"You want a real Ponzi scheme? Look at the crypto investments Musk and Trump have hyped," writes former US secretary of labor Robert Reich for the Guardian US. "In fact, most of Trump’s crypto schemes are just ways to curry his favor by paying him off."

National disgrace JD Vance was moved to an undisclosed location in Vermont, after peaceful protesters lined the streets, and gathered outside of the resort where he was planning to stay. Folks brought lots of creative homemade signs, with one reading: “Go ski in Russia, traitor.”

How dare a draft dodging dumb dupe humiliate an ally & berate a brave man who has actually been on a battlefield for his people?!

Not at all a rogue ranger. There is a whole movement of park service employees surreptitiously keeping everyone up on what's going on behind the scenes. Alt National ParkService.
