Fun stuff...

Star Trek is still my fav franchise; but writers could have done a lot of small things to make it better. Lots of scenes of people hailing other ships like, "USS Enterprise to USS Yamato." In real world this is how we' do it: USS Yamato, USS Yamato, USS Yamato, this is USS Enterprise.

Dear @welch.senate.gov

Oh Senator. Please. For the love of god. You cannot possibly be this naive 9 years into this mess!

Stop negotiating with terrorists. They are going to Lucy that football away from you so fast. Stand up for what is right!

DO. NOT. CAVE.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

Omg.. c'mon media, when you ask "Why did the president pardon someone who he claims not to know", and they answer, "I haven't seen that." The follow-up is "Well now you know, so what do you have to say"?

This is just ludicrous. "I don't know" is basically "I dont care".

Defense is now questioning Lairmore on cross-examination. They show a video still of the sandwich and wrapper on the ground, post-throw.

"Do you recognize that sandwich?" the attorney asks.

Lairmore won't confirm.

"I did not go back to collect it," he says.

ICE officers reportedly shot a 25-year-old named Carlos Jimenez.

He was shot after getting out of his car to tell the agents, who had pulled over a vehicle, that children would soon be gathering in that spot for the school bus.

If seeing people beaten and rounded up to disappear, the country being starved, and murdering people in the Caribbean has not convinced you of the deathly consequences of not voting, can you be reached? I just don’t know.

If nothing else, the last nine months should have made it clear that elections matter. But what’s remarkable about America is that we have the power, as citizens, to change this country by voting. Go to IWillVote.com.

Tyranny doesn’t steal power all at once. It starves it, vote by vote, truth by truth, until silence feels normal. Today, we still have a voice. Use it before legitimate elections become a memory whispered about in the dark. #Vote

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene: “The worst thing that I just can't get over is we're not working right now. And I put that criticism directly on the Speaker of the House…It is an embarrassment to me that we're not in session.”

Trump then:

I do NOT want Americans to go hungry, so it'll be my honor to fund SNAP benefits once the courts explain exactly how we can do that

Trump now:

I'm going to overtly disobey direct court orders to fund SNAP and make certain that Americans starve. But it's the Democrats fault
