My friend Tony Drewry just led a canoe trip down the Rio Grande for several days and kindly sent in this gorgeous shot. Looks like heaven! Doesn't it make you want to be out there right now?

Also, this will get out the news to the Fox crowd that Republicans are DETERMINED to remove health insurance from millions and also close down hospitals and clinics.
They deserve to get the "credit" for that.

She’s not wrong.
When we’re born, we have about 300 bones, but over time, we end up with just 206, because many fuse together as we grow.
And here’s a fun fact: Bone is a living tissue that constantly renews itself. Your skeleton is completely new about every 7-10 years.

What Giuliani did to those women was unconscionable. Ms Freeman and Ms Moss endured threats and still stood strong. May they be blessed in every way.

Good morning to everyone but especially to Lady Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, whose judgement against Rudy Giuliani for defaming them and turning their lives upside down cannot be pardoned away by the president

I know this is pedantic, but Kim Davis was not "jailed for refusing to issue same-sex marriage licenses." She was jailed for contempt of court because she refused to follow a court order (she had stopped issuing all marriage licenses). NYT makes it sound like the Woke Police broke down her door.

Yep, it's quite possible they only refused to take the case on a technicality that another case might address.

A GoFundMe, but it’s for Kim Davis to afford therapy so she can stop projecting her three divorces onto other people’s right to get married.

If you think the people throwing Great Gatsby-esque parties for themselves, while millions were denied their food assistance, are all of a sudden going to grow a conscience and save affordable healthcare, you clearly have not been paying attention.

Masked ICE agents put damper on Oak Park Girl Scout food drive: ‘It’s heartbreaking as a mom’
Federal immigration agents were confronted in Oak Park on Saturday morning by residents blowing whistles as local Girl Scouts collect food for local pantries, rattling some girls and their parents.

Dems Reward the Hostage-Taker
Perhaps ending the shutdown was the responsible thing to do. But by caving, Democrats risk legitimizing Trump’s maximum-pain shutdown tactics.
