Retired musician, still managing to make it to music festivals. After 30 years I moved to be near my adult kids living in Austin—chose best hill country town ever of Wimberley. Chiefs fan.
I’m up on politics, not bitter just worried.

I do not feel confident that continuing to ”examine options” is a strategy. If Congress can not gather enough votes to impeach Bondi and her staff, as soon as Democrats win the House and Senate, the new speaker must state that no other business will come before impeachment.

This administration has now provably broken the law. How is justice to be achieved. Much is yet to be revealed. Who has standing to sue for accountability. Is Congress going to finally step up?

This is despicable. Tourism is already plummeting, costing America big time. This will crush it. Also: it is un-American. Also: China just extended their visa-free travel program for another year.
Tourists visiting the United States will have their social media profiles vetted before being allowed to enter the country, under proposals set out by the Trump administration ⬇️

Despite Indiana.
A new post-election analysis argues that the current electoral climate presents the best chance in years for Democrats to flip battleground chambers and loosen Republicans’ grip on power in solidly red states like South Carolina and Missouri.

Eileen Higgins. The Miami mayoral race is nonpartisan but it is well accepted that she is a Democrat and her opponent was MAGA-supported. Let’s take wins when we find them.

Pete Hegseth committed a war crime and then doubled down.
He instructed the military to murder civilians at sea and when there were injured victims he gave the order to kill them all.
Surviving victims were brutally dismembered at sea by US missiles.
