20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

📌Trump wasn’t awarded the Nobel Peace Prize because he’s a lying, racist, America-attacking slob, and woman-abusing convicted felon, who is covering up his involvement in a gang of child rapists.

Hope this clears up any confusion.

This government shutdown is on Republicans for refusing to negotiate. Democrats must continue to hold the line to protect our healthcare.

Imagine the response if a Dem Administration removed every top general and admiral from every US military post all around the world (including conflict zones), in order to force them to attend a big in-person meeting in DC (with a former cable news co-host).

Hegseth orders rare, urgent meeting of hundreds of generals, admirals

The Pentagon has summoned military officials from around the world for a gathering in Virginia. Top generals and their staffs don’t know the reason for the meeting.

wait!

This is the corrected meme. If you see the old one in the wild, please correct it.

YES - 877-330-6366 is Trans Lifeline's Canadian hotline number.
It is a peer support line run by and for transpeople.
It is not a general crisis line and is not equipped to support the broader public.

NO - To my American friends:
As Trump shuts down your LGBT+ suicide and mental health crisis hotline during these
trying times, Canada has added a US toll-free number to ours so you can get help anytime you need at no cost.
Kindness and empathy have no borders.

YES - 877-330-6366 is Trans Lifeline's Canadian hotline number.

Today they have crossed a deep red line.

We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

We have seen the patterns of action carried out time & time again… it’s not in our heads.

Now, what can WE do about it?
Share your constructive ideas below on how to take on the housing crisis!

Mike Eliason @holz-bau.bsky.social · Feb 25

as i pointed out in July of last year - project 2025 is going to decimate HUD & affordable housing production

they are going to break the housing market - only the wealthy will be able to buy homes. working class renters will have to pay exorbitant rents - a permanent underclass, no upward mobility

The Washington Post @washingtonpost.com · Feb 23

Sharp cuts at the Department of Housing and Urban Development are likely to upend housing markets, make homes less affordable and roil mortgage transactions, according to current and former employees, contractors and housing experts.

Reasons to Live Through the Apocalypse

Sunrises. People you have still to meet and laugh with. Songs about love, peace, anger, and revolution. Walks in the woods.
The smile you exchange with a stranger when you experience beauty accidentally together. Butterflies. Seeing your grandparents again. The moon in all her forms, whether half or full. Dogs.
Birthdays and half-birthdays. That feeling of floating in love. Watching birds eat from bird feeders. The waves of happiness that follow the end of sadness. Brown eyes. Watching a boat cross an empty sea. Sunsets. Dipping your feet in the river. Balconies. Cake. The wind in your face when you roll the car window down on an open highway. Falling asleep to the sound of a steady heartbeat. Warm cups of tea on cold days. Hugs. Night skies. Art museums. Books filled with everything you do not yet know.
Long conversations. Long-lost friends. Poetry.
