Liberal, blue dot red state, wife to a cancer warrior, mom to 7, mamaw to 15. I love camping, being outside, pups, water, beer, great food, and baking! Building a non-profit to provide musical instruments to kids who can't afford them. Family is life.

I have to spend the first half of my work day at our county courthouse. Only 1 democrat holds an office in our county. Patience will be tried today. My mantra: you need your paycheck and Saturday is coming. #NOKings

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.

Story of my town. Our unhoused, addicted population is astronomical, the number of rehab facilities is pushing 75 in a county of only 73k total.

This is what I do for a living. I work with individuals with disabilities and their families. So many of these families adore Trump and his lackeys. They will come crying, wanting me to do something to fix the cuts in services-how now?

Grant me the serenity to accept that earth is filled with assholes and fuckery that I cannot change, the courage not to be part of the assholery and fuckery, and the wisdom to know I'm the shit without shitting on others. Fuckology

I'm gonna be honest, I'd rather not be living through it, but: if anybody is gonna be able to take on USA hegemony and have a right chance at it, the Vatican is an unexpected but worthy contender

STEPHANOPOULOS: The Democratic proposal is designed to prevent millions of Americans from losing their health insurance, losing Medicaid coverage, or paying higher healthcare premiums. Why are you against that?

MIKE JOHNSON: That's an absurd statement

STEPHANOPOULOS: It's a factual statement
