BREAKING NEWS!
A SPEEDY TRUMP TRIAL
Special counsel Jack Smith proposes a Jan. 2, 2024, start date for Donald Trump’s trial on charges of attempting to overturn his loss in the 2020 presidential election.
Smith in a court filing in Washington, D.C., federal court argued that that trial date would “vindicate the public’s strong interest in a speedy trial.”
Have I mentioned I ❤️ Jack Smith...he is a hero of Democracy!

@skykiss Sounds like it should be some jail time for some FBI people.🤔

Walked out for our usual morning perambulation, the dog and I. Noticed we had a bit of rain overnight.
We both started sniffing the air - the air smelled odd, somehow. Sort of like the smell of the air after a light rain... but the dog looked at me and I at her, and we agreed - this was not that.
It was... off, somehow. It smelled, I dunno, generic.
It was as though G-d had sprayed "After a Summer Rain" Glade Air Freshener everywhere.
We shrugged, the dog and I, and moved on.

Seriously worry for students of mine going into education, including the one about to go student teaching.

Guessing this will turn into a bigger shit show than it is. Hope I’m wrong.

#Abortion- Although I don’t believe women should use abortion like birth control, I believe women should have dominion over their bodies, her choice, and if you think about the #GOP position, “we’ll see to it you’re born, but then you are on your own kid”, and the fact that human numbers are approaching bacteria status on this Earth, we really don’t need huge numbers of unwanted children brought into this world because of biological urges we don’t seem able to control. That’s a fact…🤔
@makkhorn Thank goodness! ⚡️🥳
