Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, let’s steal some of their policies.

In Denmark:

- Health care and college are free.  

- The starting wage is $22/hr.

- Paid parental leave is 1 year.

- Paid vacation is 6 weeks.  

- All workers get pensions.

Over the past few years, there’s been ample time to consider and reconsider the long and fruitful life of Jimmy Carter. “He poured himself into the work that he felt like he wanted to do,” his grandson said. “A labor of love—all of it was.”
Jimmy Carter Rests
During a week of funerals, supporters and loved ones reflect on the former President’s legacy. “He understood that the arc of history is long,” his grandson said.

It’s wrong to allow someone like this to be in charge of our country, and decisions that impact all our lives!

If people would have simply done their jobs to hold him accountable he wouldn’t be!

It’s wrong, and now we are all going to pay the price!

Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry says the only way to defeat evil is with the guy who cheated on all his wives, who was found liable of sexual assault, convicted of 34 felonies, and incited insurrection against America.

Sheer hypocritical stupidity.

The combined net worth of America's twelve wealthiest people passed $2 trillion last year.

12 people. $2 trillion.

Meanwhile, U.S. homelessness increased 18% in 2024.

Our problem isn’t an issue of resources.

Our problem is ever-expanding wealth inequality.

of course the republicans have been turning the country to shit starting more than 40 years ago with their embrace of reagan. They just used to be less emboldened in their craven cruelty and criminality.

Humility, an open heart, and a true desire to improve the lives of all Americans were not just the hallmark of President Carter's presidency, but his long life of service. May his memory not only be a blessing, but an example for our nation and its incoming administration.

Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who agrees that President Carter was the kind of man who lived an exemplary life as a Christian, doing good for others, while others just hurt people and sell expensive Bibles.

In a world of Felon 47s, be a Jimmy Carter.🙏
