"Sky Light"
Last week's celestial light show, shot from my deck.
The sky was partly cloudy, I wasn't sure how it would come out, but in the end, I quite like the little cloud there.

This picture says everything about the state of our nation right now, peaceful clergy being arrested and forced face-down on the pavement.

I was disturbed to see the predator in chief trying to manipulate women, publicly known to have suffered sexual abuse as teens, into protecting him from the Epstein files. He thought he could manipulate Boebert and Mace as if they were still powerless girls. Surprised (and glad) they resisted.

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

So much work remains to be done.

Claudia is 100X the ideal female role model I want for my granddaughters than all the MAGA makeover phonies in Trumps’ regime.
‼️ Mexico's first woman president, Claudia Sheinbaum, just announced she's pressing charges after being groped in the street:

“If they do this to the president, what happens to all the women in our country?”

Gang of 8 are just the safety pawns. Sacrifices so the old guard leaders who were scared (and likely shocked) on Nov. 4 can pretend to care what we think and add a meaningless notch in their midterm belts.
I have now seen SO MANY soundbites from Shaheen, whether they be confessionals that the "gang of 8" were put in place by Schumer, or that she credulously wants to "negotiate" with the terrorists, at this point she should simply have a quick 6-second hit where she just says "I suck."
DEMOCRATIC SENATOR SHAHEEN: "We've heard from a number of our colleagues on the other side of the aisle that they're willing to come to the table, they're willing to work with us once the government is open to get this done."

Wow - what a random coincidence that the 8
capitulators all had safe sets or were retiring - almost like it was set up that way so the other Pilate’s could wash their hands?

We all know what happened here.

You conveniently picked the senators who were not up for re-election to be the ones to cave and give MAGA just enough votes to get what they wanted so the people who are still running for another term can save face and not have it hurt their elections. Full stop

ICE is inflicting a lifetime of trauma on families. And it’s being carried out in the name of the United States of America.

CALL FOR REFORM:

We need laws that stop govnt shutdowns entirely.

If Congress can’t compromise, funding should auto-continue at prior levels. We must put an end to abusive leveraging tactics & the chaos.

Also, if the govnt does shut down, NO PAY for lawmakers until it reopens.

Full stop.

There’s not enough attention being paid to the fact that ICE deported a man in a persistent vegetative state

Or the fact that he was perfectly healthy when he was detained, and his family have no idea what was done to him to cause such a severe decline

He died shortly after being deported to Cuba
