I keep busy with woodworking: making charcuterie boards and trivets laser etched with my wildlife art. Author of 20 books. I used to be interested in politics but recently have questioned that.Can’t tolerate the orange pine cone & can’t fathom those who do

I haven’t checked DOJ Victim Notification Program website lately but..At the top of the page there is a message: Democrats have shutdown the government. DOJ websites are not currently regularly updated. Please refer to the DOJ contingency plan for more information

Pete Hegseth's affiliation and support of this extremist Christian nationalist group should be mainstream news, but...no one in America asks him about it.

A beatdown in broad daylight was caught on video: Masked men in tactical vests grappled, tased, and piled onto a delivery worker. Pinning the worker face down on the pavement, agents tased him again and punched him repeatedly in the head.
Federal Agents Are the New Proud Boys
It used to be far-right groups who flooded cities wearing masks and military gear, looking for a fight. Now it’s anonymous federal agents who are violently attacking people on the street.

I keep hearing that the orange crazy man should be removed by the 25th amendment. I don’t think that’s possible. DJT and his lizard brain has fully protected himself. Doesn’t that action have to start with the VP? (Don’t think that’s happening) Then he calls the cabinet of misfits together.

I get the speech and debate clause. I don’t necessarily agree with it but I accept it. But beyond that limited protection … why in all that’s holy are they allowed to do dance so close to breaking rules and crossing into unconstitutional acts and not be arrested? You know we would be.

The Constitution disagrees. The Emoluments Clause, part of Article I, Section 9, Clause 8, bans office holders from taking ANY gifts from foreign countries. There is no mention of quid pro quo. That is because the Founding Fathers knew that even the *appearance* of corruption promotes corruption.

Do their backbones turn to jello out of fear? Or is it the desire for power or to be near power?

West Coast numbers are coming in, and estimates have now surpassed 5 million. People are still pouring into the streets—nearly 2% of the American population is rising up. America, we are so proud of you. You did it.

Now listen up legislators! We’re speaking to you and are pissed!
