The crowd that was outraged about “defund the police” is eerily silent about the defunding of public education.

Why the poorest people in our country are so against taxing billionaires in order to fund the very subsidies they are dependent on—is beyond my understanding.

A few plane crashes and people are afraid to fly. Yet children are just supposed to accept the reality of school shootings.

My teenage daughter just filled out an application to join the Air Force. I said, “I’m not sure if this is a deal breaker, but I’m pretty sure you’ll have to make your bed every day.”

Political signage is for campaign purposes. So people that are still flying their Trump flags are just weird. It’s time to take them down.

I’m a woman and don’t fear other people in the bathroom with me. Just close the stall door. It’s not that difficult.
And don’t forget to wash your hands!

Criminal conduct and sexual deviance aside, most of these nominees are unqualified for the job.
That should be enough.

Lee: When Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was up for confirmation or when VP Harris was added to the ticket, they called them DEI hires. They want you to believe that Harvard graduate with over 20 years of experience is not qualified but Fox personality is qualified to run the DOD

Nancy Mace spent the entire day ranting about a trans woman member of Congress, who hasn't assaulted a soul, using the same bathroom as her.
Not a peep about the guy credibly accused of paying for sex with a minor.
Disgusting hypocrisy.

Most people know someone who is the victim or rape or sexual assault: even if you aren’t aware of it. When you choose these offenders—knowing what they’ve done—you speak very loudly to the “someones” in your life that have experienced unspeakable pain, fear, and degradation.

So I listen to Morning Joe every day on my way to work. Give me a replacement. A podcast is fine, too.
I’m sad to stop watching them, but what the actual hell???

I will never understand how a billionaire, the richest man on Earth, spent millions to buy an election for ANOTHER billionaire, and told us that his policies would cause all of us non-billionaires “temporary hardship...”
...and the public didn't tell BOTH OF THEM to fuck off.

You don’t bury an ethics report that would exonerate Trump’s pick.
You don’t skip FBI background checks unless his nominees have something to hide.
See what they’re doing? Please tell me you see what they’re doing.

I must have put my work chapstick in my bag yesterday. I switched bags today. I have no chapstick today and I think that should be enough of a reason to call it quits early on a Friday.
PS: my car chapstick is also missing.
