The good news is that the constitution provides ways for Congress and the Judiciary to reign in a power-hungry president. The bad news is those people are all scared of him.

Trump officials admitted to an “administrative error” when they deported Abrego Garcia — a legal resident with no criminal record.
A judge ordered Garcia be returned, but Trump is fighting it in court.
Garcia now sits in a prison in El Salvador.
The cruelty is staggering.

Trump and DOGE fired USDA employees who held vital positions inspecting our food and protecting supply chains from invasive pests.
Experts now warn that food could rot while waiting for inspections, which could lead to even higher grocery prices.

Seeking peace, hope, and happiness. Dreading the next 4 years is a gigantic obstacle.
“Maybe happiness is about falling in love with your life, eating your favorite foods, dancing to your favorite songs, soaking in all the nourishing moments, slowing down, taking up space, loving yourself and the people around you harder.
Knowing, you are more than enough.”
Good morning, loves.
