First I'm hearing of this. So sad. #JimmyCarter #RIPCarter

BUT AT LEAST HE'LL GET A PROPER RESPECTFUL PRESIDENTIAL FUNERAL UNDER #Biden before he leaves office than if this were to occur under #TheOrangeMenace. 😢

Good. Thank you.

“Democratic Gov. Gretchen #Whitmer on Tuesday signed into law House Bills 4127 and 4128. The bills, sponsored by Democrats and introduced last year, prohibit the possession of firearms at polling locations on Election Day and during early voting, and also prohibit openly carrying firearms within 100 feet of an absentee ballot counting board while votes are being counted.” #Michigan

My eyes are rolling so far back in my head I can see my butt.

From what I’ve read about the visa program is it leads to worker abuse since the visas are tied to a specific company & aren’t portable.

In short, stop using someone’s Jewish identity as a jumping-off point for political debates. Let people celebrate their holidays and culture without being burdened by the weight of your agenda. It’s Hanukkah, not a geopolitical Q&A session. 🕎

In 1960, jazz pianist Dave Brubeck canceled a 25-date tour of colleges and universities across the American south after 22 schools had refused to allow his Black bassist, Eugene Wright, to perform.
He also canceled a TV show where they didn't want to show Eugene on camera.

The US may have put a man on the moon, but Denmark put an entire population on free healthcare.

@PamelaBarroway So christians have too make sure everyone knows that by pointing it out? @noondlyt @timo21

@noondlyt Because it makes those who do celebrate feel like outsiders. Lonely feeling. @timo21
