Indiana State Senate voted 31 - 19 to turn down Trump's pressure to gerrymander the map to lose 2 Democrat Reps. Quoting one courageous senator: "No one benefits when we shield those who hold power from the will of the voters,” Sen. Gary Byrne said. “Fighting fire with fire burns the world down.”

So now, with seizure of an oil tanker off the Venezuelan coast, sleepy don-old has turned our honored and venerated U.S. Coast Guard into ship pirates! We're keeping the oil he says. We've become competition to the criminal Somali pirates that plague global shipping! WTF? What is to become of us?

I wonder who said: '...whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.' ? Hmm, let me think.
Newsom: The New Testament and Old Testament have one dominant thing in common—Matthew, Isaiah, Luke, Proverbs, go down the list—it’s about food, about serving those who are hungry. It’s not a suggestion; it’s core and essential to what it means to align with God’s will.

No Kings!
#NoKings
#NoKingsInAmerica

It's our duty, our obligation & our Constitutionally protected right to protest: No Kings In America!

America does not now or ever bow down to Kings or Fascist dictators.

Protest now, make our voices heard. Stay silent & we'll be made to bend the knee later.

Female Praying Mantis
They have spiritual and cultural meanings and qualities. Per a quick web search: peace, stillness, prayer, spirituality, wisdom, prophecy. Mantis means prophet or seer in ancient Greece. According to Native Americans it can be a sign of good luck or blessings.

Pam Bondi has shown she has no integrity and therefore has no honor. She is dangerously incompetent and intensely dishonest. One of the "best people"? I think not.

Wish I'd thought of this. This is the stable genius who caused the U.S. economy to tank and the stock market to lose 5.28TRILLION in value in the about 3 weeks. Winning! Saints are winners, right?

Our one year old Havanese pup, Lainey. She quite inexplicably chose to lay on the patio right beneath a paw print stone for Bella, our 13 year old Gleachon girl who passed away the year before...the one you have now was sent by the one before...as some are wont to say. [sigh]

And running right into the ground. CFIT : Controlled Flight Into Ground as known in aviation. The terrorist in chief has highjacked the plane (USA) with his merry band of lunatics' help and flying it straight into Putin-istan.
It's official: The lunatics are now running the asylum.

The "middle man" in this equation makes more money by taking from those for whom he has an obligation to ensure those very people receive that for which they have paid into & to which the are rightfully entitled. Republican "largesse" & representation in our "king's" realm in which we now live.

Organizational culture: its universally recognized that an organization's culture is set by its executives at the top (Trump, musk, etc.) and then is reflected in the actions by the everyone else. Recreational cruelty is an executive past time favorite enjoyed by the cult leader executives here.
