Donald Jackass Trump shut the Government down in Dec 2018 until January 2019.
35 days during the Holidays. The longest shutdown in US history.
Did anybody forget that?

It's unacceptable that some hospitals are now telling patients that they cannot ask staff members to wear a mask. What happened to "do no harm"?

"The changing demography at Casa Alitas is largely the result of changes in policy by the Biden administration, which created pathways for asylum seekers from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela...to apply without crossing the southern border." https://www.thebulwark.com/what-i-saw-at-the-southern-border/

Michelle Obama launches company to improve child nutrition

Sugary drinks are youngsters’ main source of added sugar, she said, adding that nearly two-thirds of them have such a drink every day.

PLEZi Nutrition, based in the District of Columbia, is a public benefit corporation, meaning that the for-profit company was created specifically for the public’s benefit and will balance its profit needs with its mission to help improve child nutrition.

So sorry to see this news of the death of Rabbi Kushner. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and community.
I confess that I never read his well-known title: "When Bad Things Happen to Good People" but I enjoyed some of his other writings.

Think about how you'd feel, were you in the minority.

Reminder that one of Trump's defenses is that E Jean Carroll isn't his type. Well ... Trump mistook Carroll for his ex-wife Marla Maples during his deposition

I feel both terribly sad and also hopeful when I see how Zooey Zephyr, a transgender woman legislator in Montana, is treated by her colleagues and how she responds.

They banned her from speaking on the floor; so she speaks truth to power and sets up on a bench outside the entrance for the legislature. Not once has she stopped working for the people in her district despite facing bigotry. All of the people of Montana should be outraged that an elected member can be voted into legislative exile.

If you're wondering, what could Ken Paxton possible want to distract people from? https://www.texastribune.org/2023/02/16/texas-attorney-general-ken-paxton-corruption-doj/

@AlliFlowers
Thanks.
I'm perma-banned from fb because I attempted to commit war crimes against the cult of maga there, oops.

Donald Trump told reporters he was flying back early from Ireland to "confront" E. Jean Carroll.

Trump's own attorney Joe Tacopina called him a liar in federal court. https://youtu.be/b0IXHJGgqBI

Today is Cinco de Mayo and also Pesach Sheni.

So, basically, Cinco de Matzah.

Forget about the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Merrick Garland should appoint a DOJ Special Counsel to investigate corruption and tax evasion by justices of the Supreme Court.
