He's an independent. And thanks for pointing him out though. I think he's a good guy. His term isn't up until 2031. He's 81 years old now, won reelection last year. I didn't vote for him because I don't live in Maine, but if I did I wouldn't have. We need young leaders and there's plenty of them.

I felt pretty stupid even though I was the only one around. 🙄

were (and had never been streetlights), no signs of warning prior to getting to that point and the cement circle had no yellow caution paint around it. I drive a small two-seater car that's very low and the cement circle was probably no more than 3 to 4 in high. I simply didn't see it. Luckily

drove down it again. It was still a two-lane. To my surprise they had installed a rotary with a low-level cement paved circle in the middle which I promptly drove right over. Lucky for me there was no one trying to go around it as I was going over it! There

There's comments in here about how some people are stupid drivers so I'll embarrass myself with my own little story. There was repaving going on for months for about a mile's worth of two-lane road in town. I avoided all of it until I knew it had been completed. It was dusk the 1st time I

Yes!!! I'm not surprised to see her respond this way. We've seen her in action when she's fed up and she's tough. She doesn't need to take this bullshit from anybody.

made and Republicans think they're sitting pretty to win in the midterms turns out to be for nothing. That there is going to be a lot of Republicans and MAGA who realize that they really got screwed over and finally wake up and vote for the party that actually cares about them. A girl can dream.

I have thoughts where it turns out that all the efforts to gut the Voting Rights Act actually happen & all the gerrymandering the Republicans do happens, that once all the bullshit, criminality, corruption, high prices, the cost of tariffs, loss of healthcare, and all the other cuts they've

What's the big deal? He's just adding to the enemies list that everyone says he doesn't have. 🙄

If history is any guide, the cost of living increase will be eaten up by the increase in the premium deductible taken from Social Security funds every month.

None in his regime are going to help him or even his own family. They don't care about his diminished capacity because they can continue their evil works behind his back. Everybody knows they're propping him up solely for that purpose.

Since the GOP forced a shutdown on September 30, federal workers have either been off the job or working without pay.

On October 10, they missed their first paycheck.

Republicans are betraying America's workers and their families.

I had to call Social Security for the first time earlier this week. The lady I spoke with was helpful, knowledgeable and pleasant. She unfortunately was unable to help me because of the shutdown and regretted that which gave me the opportunity to tell her how thankful that I was for her even being

I listened to all of this and I must say it does not look good.

Deb ❌👑🐸 @debkat.bsky.social · 6h

I know it's overused but the egregious lies and hypocrisy are absolutely unending. The comfort with which they all just lie right to our faces is more than disturbing.

Somebody ask him why he hasn't hung the plaque ordered by Congress to be hung honoring law enforcement who defended the Capitol 1/6. It was supposed to be hung by March of 2023. Or ask him why the orange menace in the Oval Office pardoned all the insurrectionists.

Happy birthday, Rex. I miss all your antics, your stick of the day & the throne that you made out of them, your runs down the hall after your baths and all the joy you brought to me every day. 💋❤️🐾

How many times do Kagan, Sotomayer and Jackson have to point out that "intentional" doesn't enter into this?

I've been wondering about that. Is she going to get more time when these guys are done blathering and saying they aren't racially discriminative against Blacks when they obviously are?

It's the Republican way.

I hope Lisa Murkowski is proud of her vote. She fell for the con and now her state will suffer for it. Fool me once happens. Letting it happen more than once is just plain stupid.
