A SC bill banning ALL abortions with NO exceptions gets its first hearing on Tuesday, March 4, 9am-12pm, in Columbia. I need y’all to show up and speak out against this dangerous bill. What we’re living under now is horrendous. It will only get worse. Can I count on you?

Wondering how Trump becoming head of the Kennedy Center is helping make our government better. Wouldn’t it be more important to bring about lower grocery prices? That was gonna to happen on Day 1.

H. Res. 59 is a U.S. House resolution denouncing Bishop Budde’s homily. The House is considering setting itself in opposition to the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth because those teachings don’t support their own claims to power and righteousness as they set out to hurt people by the thousands.

We know the loyalists have no conscience as half of them denounced Felonious before they kissed the ring, waiting for that to kick in is questionable…
“Cowardice asks the question, ‘Is it safe?’ Expediency asks the question, ‘Is it politic?’ But conscience asks the question, ‘Is it right?’ And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but because conscience tells one it is right.”

This is Judge Loren AliKhan. She just blocked Donald Trump's unconstitutional attempt to freeze federal funding, including Medicaid.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

Went to Cincinnati this morning to catch the last day of the Ansel Adams show at the Cincinnati Museum of Art. Two hours each way and worth it.

It was 22 degrees for JFK’s inauguration. Mrs. Kennedy wore a cloth coat throughout to avoid displaying (much warmer) fur in front of thousands of citizens who couldn’t afford fur.

Trump cannot abrogate birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment by way of executive order. That’s not how constitutional rights work.

Austria seems poised to have the first far right government since WWII. Herbert Kickl leads the Freedom Party, founded by ex-Nazis, which promotes, among other things, ending aid to Ukraine and refusing all new asylum seekers. Another harbinger of things to come.

The problem isn’t government waste. The problem is that billionaires don’t pay taxes.
