No single reform can eliminate corruption or fully repair the public’s faith in government. But codifying the Constitution’s Emoluments Clauses would be a powerful start. bit.ly/43MmpHM

“As of November 5th, it estimated that U.S.A.I.D.’s dismantling has already caused the deaths of six hundred thousand people, two-thirds of them children.”

As if it needed to be repeated, the dismantling of USAID will go down in history as one of the modern world’s greatest moral failures.

In 1978, Gilbert Baker designed the rainbow flag as a symbol of LGBTQ+ pride and hope for the 1978 San Francisco Gay Freedom Day Celebration.

Baker first created the rainbow flag with a collective. He refused to trademark it, seeing it as a symbol for the #LGBTQ+ community. #LGBTQHistoryMonth

My north-central, very red, small, rural town of Starke, Florida, had a No Kings protest! We even had a dinosaur show up! Was so excited to see them. Honked and waved to show my support. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

Ziva blew a drool bubble and had a drool string coming out her mouth at the same time. She's special that way. 🤣🤣🤣

She was watching me eat chicken nuggets. And, yes, she did get some.

Apparently the latest maga conspiracy theory is:

Fact 1. Florida's hurricane season this year was basically non-existent. We had only 1 tropical storm hit the state.

Fact 2. dt's admin fired a lot of the NOAA/NHC staff.

For those who don't know that, go learn something today.

Sunday reading:

I wrote about the aggrieved extremist who is currently firing thousands of federal workers and ravaging state capacity based on conspiratorial nonsense - and about mainstream media’s infuriating tendency to sanitize Russell Vought and the regime he serves.

This week’s piece:
We need to talk about Russell Vought – But Properly
Why certain mainstream outlets insist on sanitizing Vought as a devout “small government” conservative – and what actually animates his war against pluralistic democracy

Three really cool things I saw today:

1. A hawk flying into the woods to eat the wriggly snake she had in her talons for lunch.

2. Three gorgeous bald eagles flying across the road low enough to see how huge they are!

WE TRIED TO TELL EVERYONE THIS WOULD HAPPEN. And now it is happening. jfc
This was always the plan.

Project 2025 was Donald Trump's blueprint to seize unchecked power within the federal government and restrict Americans' freedoms. And he is implementing it right in front of our eyes.

In a moment like this, when tensions are high, part of the job of the president is to remind us of the ties that bind us together.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

Something people aren't talking about enough is how often Charlie Kirk invoked the Fifth Amendment when testifying before Congress about the domestic terrorists he provided buses to get to Washington on January 6, 2021.

The only reason the NRA is against a transgender gun ban is it knows if that happens, it is a very slippery slope to a Dem potus banning cis males from having guns.

My manifestation to the universe is that everyone who believes slavery "wasn't that bad" comes back in their next life as a slave in America.

So mote it be.
