Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act.

Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes?
Staffer: a DL and birth certificate.
Me: The documents don’t match
Staffer: Then a marriage certificate.
Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too?
Staffer: No
Me: See the problem?

QUESTION: Hannity says Joe Biden lied when he said he would never pardon Hunter. But Hannity is divorced. So when he vowed to stay with his wife until death did them part, was he lying, or did circumstances change?

Anyone, any entity, anywhere in the world can just pay him any amount (for anything he promises in return), and there's no disclosure of the payments, no oversight of any of it by anyone, and of course no potential bribery prosecution (of him) because... immune.

So let me get this straight.

If you apply for a job at a grocery store, you have to undergo a background check.

But, if you apply to be Director of National Intelligence, you don't?

Got it.

Lots of people are about to be really mad that price of eggs goes up but they can’t get a 2nd job because they can’t afford childcare and when they do finally get the eggs they get E Coli because there’s no FDA but can’t go to the doctor because they got kicked off their health plan. #FAFO

I would love to add some newer protest songs to my musical repertoire. Any recommendations?

The House Ethics Committee completed an investigation into Trump’s nominee to run the Justice Department — an investigation that reportedly looked at criminal behavior including sex with a minor — and Mike Johnson wants to hide the report from the country.

A *massive* red flag.

"While pundits have busied themselves over the past 10 days nitpicking Kamala Harris’s campaign, one thing is abundantly clear: She was held to the highest standards of leadership while Trump was held to no standard at all."

Her rise and fall illustrates the Glass Cliff.

If Dems don't leak the ethics report to press, they're not serious about meeting this moment. Full stop. No excuse.

It would be nice if actually religious churches ( not MAGA cesspools) along with mosques and shuls vowed to give sanctuary to vulnerable immigrants. This country had an underground network once ya know

Now that I've christened this new account with three cheery posts, I'm ready to rant on politics. Except so many others have already done it so much better than I would. So this is my entire rant -
WTF, voters?!?!?
