🚨🚨🚨 MAJOR BREAKING: The January 6 insurrectionist who put his feet on a desk in Speaker Pelosi’s office has been sentenced to a whopping 4.5 years in prison.

Here’s the best part.

Attorneys for Richard "Bigo" Barnett BEGGED the judge to only give him 6 months in prison.

They argued that because he was a 63-year-old retired firefighter from rural Arkansas who came to DC for his very first time to peacefully protest, he was just caught up in the moment.

The U.S. District Court Judge Christopher Cooper wasn’t moved.

He sentenced him to 54 months anyway.

Federal prosecutors noted in a court filing that a photograph of a smiling became one of the best-known images of that day, symbolizing the rioters control of both the hallowed space and the political process from the nation’s elected leaders.

JUSTICE SERVED.

“What a legacy she left us all”: @GayleKing and @Oprah shared special moments with Tina Turner, from concerts to dance lessons to meals together.

Oprah says she was a longtime fan of Turner's — and the singer exceeded and transcended her expectations in friendship.

This is a side by side of two women gracing the front covers of two well known magazines.

The one on the right we all know is Martha Stewart, age 81. The one on the left is Apo Whang-Od, age 106, a tribal tattooist in a remote province in the Philippines.

There seems to be an unwritten rule which equates beauty with youngness. In an interview, Martha Stewart told the reporter she credits her organic, home-grown, farm-to-table eating, yoga, and actively healthy lifestyle to her youthfulness. While that’s an admirable journey for her, let’s not forget the amount of privilege that kind of lifestyle requires.

On the left is Apo Whang-Od, who is a 106-year-old tribal tattooist in the Philippines. The wisdom she carries in every forehead wrinkle and frown line is stunning. Her eyes are glass, reflecting back all that she’s witnessed over a century of lived experiences. Her tattoos a reminder of the ancestors she seeks to honor.

Both women are beautiful in their own right. But I wish we as women didn’t play into this idea that we have to look younger—and thinner—in order to fit some unrealistic beauty standard which will grant us acceptance and relevance in the world around us.

I’m writing this for any woman who, like me, may have had a punched-gut reaction to seeing an octogenarian in a swimsuit on the cover of a magazine looking more like a woman in her forties or fifties: Anti-aging is not a beauty standard.

There IS beauty in wrinkles, and saggy skin, and drooping breasts. These are markers of a life hard fought for and well lived. It seems odd to try and erase these battle scars.

So while I applaud Martha for her fortunate body, carefully curated procedures, and pristinely styled makeup, I also applaud Whang-Od for what others may perceive as imperfections.

Anti-aging is not a beauty standard.
Authenticity is.

@CalltoActivism I am sure that Trump will not have the Intestinal Fortitude (Guts) to appear in court, even though he has no problem to swearing on a Bible (or without a Bible) and going on to lie. His entire presidency was a lie. even though it followed his taking an oath on the Bible.

🚨🚨🚨 BREAKING: Lawyers for E. Jean Carroll have rested her civil case against Donald Trump shortly after jurors were shown a deposition video of Donald Trump confusing E. Jean Carroll with his ex-wife Marla Maples.

This video was IMMENSELY significant because Trump famously argued that he wouldn’t have raped Carroll because she “wasn’t his type.”

The video showing Trump’s confusing a younger Carroll with a woman he married is a slam dunk for Carroll to be able to dispute that claim.

The defense also rested its case, but the judge left open the possibility for Trump, who had said he wouldn't appear in person, to take the witness stand in his own defense, giving him until 5 p.m. Sunday to change his mind.

Today we stand with the brave and courageous E. Jean Carroll for telling her story.

We BELIEVE her and hope she receives the Justice she deserves. 💙

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: It’s OFFICIAL! Congressman Colin Allred, former lineman for the Tennessee Titans, has announced he’ll challenge Ted Cruz for Senate!

There is one BIG reason Colin Allred is going to win:

For Allred, this race is personal.

Colin Allred was one of the House members stuck in the Capitol on January 6 as the violent mob descended.

Not knowing if he’d make it out alive, he sent a text to his wife:

“Whatever happens, I love you.”

Later, he laid blamed on Ted Cruz for participating in an attempt to deny the election.

Allred called the events of January 6 part of “a broader authoritarian movement across the world,” and vowed to protect democracy.

Now he’s running for Senate.

Before Congress Allred played football in the NFL. He then earned his law degree before working for the Obama Administration.

Allred is no stranger to tough races. For a Democrat in the suburbs of Dallas is more than impressive. His shocking victory over popular Republican Pete Sessions shows he has what it takes to win.

I think one thing is safe to say:

Ted Cruz is f*cked.
