The wildflower Daucus carota is known as “Queen Anne’s Lace”. The name may refer to St Anne, “Queen of Heaven” and patron saint of lacemakers. Legend says the tiny red flower at the heart of its lacy white blooms marks a drop of blood that fell from her pricked finger. #folklore

let me make sure i’m understanding this correctly

the supreme court is refunding all tariff money back to corporations.

the same corporations that didn’t pay a single cent of those tariffs to begin with.

they passed every dollar directly to you through higher prices on everything you buy

you went to the store and paid more for groceries. you paid more for clothes. for car parts. for literally everything.

that money came out of YOUR pocket not theirs

and now the refund goes to THEM?

the corporations who used the tariffs as an excuse to raise prices even higher than the tariff itself and pocket the difference

the american people funded the tariffs.

the corporations profited off the tariffs.

and now the corporations get a refund on money they never spent in the first place
and nobody in washington thinks the people who actually paid should get the money back.

not a single person has even suggested it

guess we are never getting our DOGE checks either

this country does not work for you.

it works for them. it’s a joke

and they’re not even pretending anymore

I bought President Biden’s book when Jake Tapper announced his book of lies for a cheap grift. I want Joe Biden #1 in sales. 🙏��💙

[Paula Poundstone @paulapoundstone]

Biden got a lot done. He was an excellent President. If he was tired while he did it, it’s even more impressive.

[WeThePeople🇺🇸🇺🇸 @PrincessBravato]

Jake Tapper decided selling his soul was worth it.
He didn't need to attack Biden, he was never running again. He did it for 💰 & clicks. I hope this ruins his career. While tapper & buddies were bashing Biden as he was finding out he had cancer. So fuck you Jake.

[Nicole Minét @mouvement33]

So Biden has an aggressive form of cancer, yet he broke OPEC, rehab'd our economy, ended a pandemic in our country, passed an infrastructure bill, and added a record number of jobs as unemployment went way down. Trump can barely form a sentence.

STATEMENT from Hunter Biden.

“For my entire life, I’ve looked at my dad in awe. How could he suffer so much heartache and yet give so much of whatever remained of his heart to others?

“Not only in the policies he passed, but in the individual lives he’s touched.

“Over a life time I have witnessed him absorb the pain of countless everyday Americans who he’s given his personal phone number to, because he wanted them to call him when they were hurting. When their last hopes were slipping through their hands.

“That unconditional love has been his North Star as a President, and as a parent. He is unique in public life today, in that there is no distance between Joe Biden the man and Joe Biden the public servant of the last 54 years.

“I’m so lucky every night I get to tell him I love him, and to thank him. I ask all Americans to join me tonight in doing the same.

“Thank you. I love you, Dad.”

[Dash Dobrofsky @DashDobrofsky]

Joe Biden has been diagnosed with prostate cancer. Meanwhile, CNN’s Jake Tapper and Axios’ Alex Thompson are attacking Biden for struggling to answer questions about his late son Beau in a year-old interview.

The mainstream media has no bottom. Morally reprehensible vultures.

[Nancy Sinatra @NancySinatra]

Thank you, Joe.

[Covie @covie_93]

While you're saying a prayer for Joe, remember to say one for Hunter too. His dad has always been his rock.

[Michael Grunwald @MikeGrunwald]

I took this photo of @JoeBiden in 2016 - the way he tries so hard to connect with everyone he meets has always touched me. I hope he gets well soon. He’s been through a lot.

[IDissent @caryn_wallace]

🧵🚨to @ChrisMurphyCT as your constituent I am disgusted by this answer.

MILLIONS of us voted in the primary for Joe! He even won NH as a write-in!

When Joe dropped out the ONLY choice was our VP!

The main reason we lost is that you & so many others never backed up 1/

[Symone D. Sanders Townsend @SymoneDSanders]

Joe Biden is a fine man, a dedicated public servant, a loving father, husband and grandfather. If you’re a praying person like I am, offer one up. 🙏🏾

[John Collins @Logically_JC]

A lot of people failing the basic morality test today.

What’s all this Biden bashing all of a sudden? When he was president I wasn’t worried about my Medicare, social security and a functioning democracy.

[Chris D. Jackson @ChrisDJackson]

In 2019, after my dad was diagnosed with an aggressive form of leukemia, he got a call from a man he had admired for years—@JoeBiden.

Joe listened, offered help, and truly shared in our pain. Dad would replay that call whenever he was feeling low.

Two years later, just days after Dad passed, Joe sent our family a personal letter honoring his life and offering his prayers.

We aren’t alone. That’s who Joe is—a good man with a big heart. He’s carried so much of all our pain over the years. Now it’s our turn to carry his. Keep him in your prayers.
