@theweekendmsnow.bsky.social I’m a professional photographer, so I’m visually oriented. —I remember faces and things first and names sometime later. Before I could attach a name to Jackie’s face, I knew her as cupcake-cookie-jar-girl. I’d like to see the cookie jar make a holiday cameo. Thanks.

A Town Hall at 7:30 on a Monday morning? If the Doug LaMalfa (Republican Representative, 1st District, California) organizers thought that would thwart attendance, they were wrong. All 525 seats were quickly filled. Another 100 or so lined the walls and the back of the room.

I have long implored Republicans in Congress to grow a spine. Many of them disagree with the madness and policies of the current administration, but they are physically and/or fiscally afraid to speak out.
One of the worst feelings one can have is knowing what to do…. and not doing it.

You get to a point where there's ALMOST nothing to say anymore about the cowardice and scraping servility of a slim majority. Someone ought to purchase 53 of these and place them on the chairs in the Senate chambers of the toadies.
