Old seasoned Feminist. Don’t mess with me, my memory is long. Protecting innocence & Veterans are two of the best things we can ever do. We defend the world as a responsibility of Democracy & should NOT have to defend our Democracy from our own government.

Speaker Mike Johnson has deliberately abandoned his job. There are provisions in the Constitution for a vote to remove him. As I understand it, he can now be given review process in the House and removed by a vote. It’s time for this rubbish to stop.

Like a dog hiking his leg to mark trees, Trump defiles this important walk of Presidents. He’s already brutally torn down the First Ladies’ Offices. What’s next?

Special Counsel Jack Smith offered to testify publicly about his investigations into Trump’s wrongdoing, but Republicans insist on keeping his testimony behind closed doors so they can cherry pick and distort his statements. I’m attending his deposition today to get the truth.

Nearly 400k Virginians rely on the ACA, and most need tax credits to afford it. But Republicans are ending those credits on 12/31.

If they let that happen, coverage could cost 30-50% more, and over 100k Virginians could lose insurance overnight. It’s time to act. Let’s vote on the clean extension.

Three things:

1. Trump writes Obama's full middle name of Hussein while abbreviating his own to J.

2. The text starts off more professional to fool people into reading & gets increasingly petty.

3. The most powerful man in the world couldn't find a frame big enough to make it just one plaque LOL.

Trump has just added this vindictive plaque below Obama’s White House portrait and it bears all the childish pettiness and chaotic capitalisation of his 4am Truth Social rants.

This is SO FREAKING DANGEROUS to take US Defense capabilities AWAY from Europe and Eastern issues to focus them on Venezuela! Why is Trump opening the door to Eastern threats?

Does Trump have to give back the FIFA Peace Prize after he invades Venezuela, or does the FIFA guy really not care what he does because he needs a lot of favors for the World Cup and the whole thing is a ridiculous corrupt charade?

Sending masked, armed ICE agents into shelters to intimidate families without judicial warrants is unconscionable and illegal. Under Sec. Noem, DHS is routinely and clearly violating the law.

She admitted it last week.
My latest months-long investigation: Inside the surge in ICE visits to NYC homeless shelters under the Trump administration.

Several incidents raise questions about whether city staff and federal agents are following the laws.

Who IS in the driver’s seat?
Trump is obviously on some medical cocktail. He sleeps a lot on camera, is bleary eyed in functions or combative in single syllables.Trying to justify an economy he &the Oval Office Oligarchs designed is impossible. In his real brain he must know this.So the question is, who’s in the driver’s seat?

More than 75% of homes are unaffordable for the average household. Hard-working Americans are being pushed out of the market by private equity.

We need to pass my Wall Street Landlords Act that stops private equity from monopolizing the buying of single-family homes.
