My foster dog has big love for the cats. Unfortunately she also has big energy which is freezing them out.
Right now she’s standing at the door between her part of the house and their part of the house whimpering.

Muting a Black woman to claim the vote was unanimous is so incredibly on the nose
The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

The Kennedy Center was given its name by an act of Congress after President John F. Kennedy was assassinated.
Pretty sure its current board, which includes revered fine arts dignitaries like Laura Ingraham, Pamela Jo Bondi, Maria Bartiromo, and Lee Greenwood, can't undo that law.

Because they meant to decrease tourism to zero.
They would never let me into this country if I weren't already here
In addition to 5 years of social media history, CBP would also require tourists to provide all phone numbers used over that period, any email addresses used in the past decade, DNA and iris scans, and the names, addresses, birthdates and birthplaces of family members

My newest foster dog is breaking my heart. He is such a love bug. But… a week into fostering his serious prey drive is showing.
I have 3 cats.
After losing my beloved Bear in August I was beginning to hope this might be a foster fail, but it’s not in the cards.

This is so messed up… Amnesty International reports that detainees at Alligator Alcatraz (and at another facility, Krome North Service Processing Center) describe being placed in a “punishment box,” a cage-like structure in the yard so cramped that people could not sit, lie down, or

The argument against immigration is that “those people” are a danger.
According to the Cato Institute, “The analysis also indicated that the likelihood of being killed in a mass shooting by a native-born American was approximately 6.5 times higher than by a foreign-born shooter.”

Himes: They posed zero threat to anyone in the region, and we killed them.
Himes: It was exceedingly hard to watch. Even if you stipulate that it is a war, there is a very specific prohibition against killing individuals who have been removed from the fight. And there is no question that these individuals were removed from the fight.
