The Bill of Rights was basically poppycock until the 1960s. When I was born, all of this was legal:

● Public school teachers could lead mandatory class prayers.

● Private employers could require employees to go to church.

● Both govt and private business could post jobs for Whites/Men Only.

If Mike Johnson is refusing to call the House back into session during the shutdown, then we’ll do the work right here the Bronx.

The New York Essential plan is being eliminated entirely next year due to the GOP healthcare cuts. People’s lives are at stake.

And that’s why we’re fighting back.

What did I miss?

Ugh. I'm sorry. That's hard.

I want a two-state solution. With Hamas gone. They're a terrorist group who again yesterday pledged to kill all Jews. They're also busy murdering Palestinians.

Not blaming anyone. I don't think it's a big deal.

I don't have network TV, so I'm just following the score tracker. 🤷‍♀️

It's been absurd today.

Like the old customer service joke:

"What if we accept the return, give you a full refund, fire the clerk, close the store, and burn down the building. Would THAT satisfy you?"

Crissie Brown #🟦 @comicrissieb.bsky.social · 19h

Yeah, exactly.

There were things we didn't say, whatever we might have thought.

Crissie Brown #🟦 @comicrissieb.bsky.social · 19h

I'm glad it's not just me who thinks this sometimes.

Not a fan of bullying, but we have a lot of people who never learned some important life skills.

Extinguishing MLK's Eternal Flame is both outrageous and a hell of a metaphor for right now www.wsbtv.com/news/local/a...

Eternal flame at Martin Luther King Jr.’s Atlanta burial site destroyed

Police say the man also urinated in the reflective pool.

Did anyone really think the "palestinians" would EVER tell the truth or keep their word?

Thank you for the repost.

They're literally not allowed to call bullshit "bullshit". It's one of the forbidden words in mainstream media.

And they have no substitute term. They just pretend it's something else.

We'll start to see progress when journalists understand what bullshit is and call it that.

Hamas' founding charter demands a "Free Palestine ... from the [Jordan] River to the [Mediterranean] Sea."

They don't want a two-state solution. They want the extinction of Israel.

If men don't want to be mistaken for predators, maybe stop the predation.
