So a number of judges have figured out that these thugs never operate in good faith. Our Senate Democrats are incapable of realizing that. And their error will cause untold pain.

Interesting. With this front coming through, we are in a red flag warning today. So our solar panel controller fully charged our batteries early this morning and will keep them charged until the warning expires (or until there is a power loss).

In 2001, terrorists tried to destroy the White House with a hijacked plane. 24 years later, the president of the United States accepted a plane from people funding terrorists and destroyed the White House himself.🔄

So Trump says the shutdown hurt R’s at the polls. Then some said he suggested full SNAP funding while court cases proceed. Now he suggests getting rid of health insurance companies. Is his brain getting so muddled he’s forgetting which side of issues he’s on?

In case you haven’t heard: Legit food banks in your local area get the most food for your donated dollar. You can buy one can of beans or one bag of pasta with $1. They can buy double, triple, quadruple that for the same $1. So look into food banks, and consider setting up a monthly donation.

What did Watson discover?
Rosalind Franklin's lab notes.

That sinking feeling when you're already on the third load of laundry for the day and hear the cat starting to hack up a furball. And you know she's on the bedspread.
Fortunately, I moved her off it in time.

The endless parade of videos of ICE and CBP brutality makes me think of John Lewis in Selma. I grieve for how far our country has regressed in the last decade.
