🦉✨Going to bed late. Waking up early. Just to admire the quiet beauty of the morning starry sky.

This image shows Jupiter, the greatest of all our planets, shining in the constellation Gemini during the early morning hours of December 18, 2025. #MorningSky

So, MAGA friends, you elected Trump to what? Bring down prices? Create jobs? End oil wars and foreign adventures? Raise our standing in the world? Kick you off healthcare? Arrest your neighbors? Steal from the US government? Build a ballroom? Nice job. Super duper smart. Definitely not deplorable.

On Veterans Day, we honor all the men and women who have sworn the oath and devoted themselves to serving in our armed forces to protect the American Constitution, our democratic nation and the freedom of our people.

It’s not enough to simply thank our veterans for their service.

Millions of them rely on SNAP and the ACA.

Many struggle with PTSD and worry about access to mental health services.

Today, on Veterans Day, let’s renew our commitment to keep fighting for those who fought for us.
