Trump is going to do everything he can to interfere with the midterm elections. This is why it’s so important to keep on top of your voter registration and make sure you have a plan to vote
@dprzygoda What I’m urging people to do below👇 isn’t a small thing! The more public comments received on the proposed USPS ballot mailing regulation, the more it slows down the process, AND, provides the Federal courts reviewing lawsuits opposing it with a basis to gauge public opposition.
JODIE FOSTER OFFERING A PERFECT AND SIMPLE SOLUTION TO THE GAY VS MAGA CULTURAL CRASH-LET HUMAN BEINGS LIVE AS THEY TRULY ARE: STOP WEAPONIZING RELIGION-THE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT THAT PROTECTS THE FREEDOM OF RELIGION GIVES ALL OF US A RIGHT TO BELIEVE AND FORM OUR OWN MORAL CODE
At 18, he fled Nazi Germany, was wrongly interned as an “enemy alien” in Britain, yet went on to shape our understanding of World War Two and the Holocaust through his powerful artwork.
This is the only photo I have of Hans Jackson, on his wedding day in 1945:
The skunk waddling across your yard at night is a pacifist who really just wants to eat your pests.
Skunks are grub specialists. They go for the larvae of Japanese beetles and June beetles, the same grubs that kill grass from the roots up, and they'll dig up a yellowjacket nest and eat the whole thing too. Those little cone-shaped holes in your lawn aren't vandalism. They're a skunk telling you that you had a grub problem, and that it's handling it.
And the spray? It's a last resort, and they really don't want to use it. A skunk is slow, near-sighted, and mild-mannered, and before it ever sprays it will warn you over and over: stomping its front feet, hissing, arching its back, lifting its tail, even making little fake charges. It's an animal begging you to just back away.
So if you see one trundling through your yard at dusk, you don't have a problem, you have a slow, gentle, near-blind exterminator doing a lap of your yard. Give it space and let it work.

“The Lovings' legacy is a powerful one: today, nearly one in five newlyweds in the United States has a spouse of a different race or ethnicity, a fivefold increase from when the Lovings won their court case 59 years ago.”
The bottom line: The federal judges have ruled more than 13,300 times — the overwhelming majority of the 15,100 rulings — that ICE had detained people in violation of the law or their due process rights.

I sometimes wonder what Ukrainians really think of Western Europe. They die and suffer terrible injuries - not to mention all the emotional trauma - while the rest of Europe double-deals with Russia. What a shameful chapter in Western European history...

As you read scary references to mysterious “biolabs” by Tulsi & others, remember that these public health labs identify screwworm in cattle, Lyme disease in area ticks, E. Coli in local hamburger, bird flu in chicken flocks, and the like. Their purpose is to PROTECT our health.
"It's a race against time. ... People like @realDonaldTrump, narcissistic sociopaths like the ones we've seen throughout history—the Hitlers and the Stalins—they blow themselves up in the end. And the question is the blast radius, and the longer we let this go on the bigger the blast radius is."
A federal judge restored 11 clean energy grants in states that President Trump lost after attorneys acknowledged the election influenced why the funding was nixed.

Reuters: US JUDGE ORDERS TRUMP ADMINISTRATION TO REINSTALL SIGNS, EXHIBITS IT REMOVED FROM NATIONAL PARKS DISCUSSING TOPICS LIKE SLAVERY, CLIMATE CHANGE
I think the series really finds its legs with book 2, I Hear The Sirens In The Street
book 8 which came out last summer, Hang On St Christopher, begins with a summer riot in Belfast...
Evil is the right word for this; taking people who are safe in the United States, who have proven to a judge they would be persecuted in their home country, and dumping them in a random country in the middle of a civil war.
Is it legal? Sadly, probably yes. Is it evil? Also yes.
SCOOP: The Defense Department is again quietly delaying forever chemical cleanup across nearly 200 US sites.
Delays average 10 years and stretch out to 20.

Pope Leo to those who exploit migrants: “For every life lost, every family deceived, every body subjugated, every woman threatened, every worker exploited, you will have to appear before divine justice. Break those chains and free those you hold under your dominion.”
Shocked to hear David Hockney has died. His huge achievement was to make serious painting look effortless. He carried forward one of the most sustained investigations into vision, space and representation by any post-war artist. British art has lost a giant.
