Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

There will come a day when folks realize that the 2016 election was stolen, as was the 2024 election.

That sounds crazy to say now, conspiracy stuff… but just wait. Hell, bookmark this.

Different methods were used for each, but it will come out.

Then we are gonna have ourselves a real mess.

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

Grocery prices are soaring.

Housing costs are skyrocketing.

Retirement savings are plummeting.

But Donald Trump thought today would be a good day to play car salesman.

For the rest of my life, I will never understand how a country full of people busting their asses, working paycheck to paycheck, allow the fucking richest guy on Earth to call them "parasites" while calling the Social Security we contributed to our entire lives "a Ponzi scheme."

Un-fucking-real.

Son: Are we better off now?

Dad: Well son, mom & dad have both lost their jobs. Our savings are gone, gas & grocery prices are up. We did, however, save you from drag queen story time.

Son: What's that?

Dad: A mythical thing they said was happening in your school, which we can't afford anymore.

There’s a major shift in U.S. cybersecurity policy. A recent CISA memo removed Russia from its list of priorities, focusing instead on China and local systems. Analysts were told not to track Russian cyber threats.

Good morning and Happy Monday to everyone who agrees that ANYONE who can't easily admit that Russia invaded Ukraine is a Putin bootlicker, a Russian stooge, and a moronic fucking asshole.

Russia invaded Ukraine, folks. PERIOD.

We'd seen enough election irregularities on Election Day to question the result.

And then, like the villain in every Bond movie, he bragged about how he did it.

So WHY did they let him get away with it? Read my latest Substack and find out.

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

This is a very good reminder to keep your cats indoors. (Er, unless you're leashing them or keeping them on a cat patio.) I know that cats are very special little libertarians who demand their freedom to roam, but keeping them indoors keeps them and you safe. Please and thank you.
SCOOP: Cats that became infected with bird flu might have spread the virus to humans in the same household and vice versa, according to data that briefly appeared online in a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention but then abruptly vanished.

“Women over 40 are invisible.”

That’s not entirely true. If we were totally invisible we would’ve already robbed you all blind, bought a deserted island, and be spending our days petting cats and casting spells.

We’re focused on feeding our kids.

Investing in our schools.

Making sure child care is affordable.

Regardless of the chaos unfolding in Washington, we’re making Minnesota the best state for kids to grow up.
