My sister is a nurse. My oldest daughter is a nurse. My wife is a lab tech. And...and one time...I was a nurse. Don't tell my family...or the hundreds of thousands of other families...that nurses...and those in the health field...aren't "professionals."

You're Goddamn right we're professionals.

Republican Congressman Don Bacon slammed U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff. “If he were a paid Russian agent, would he be doing anything differently? He must be removed.” Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick added, “These secret side shows need to end. Let Secretary Rubio handle this with fairness and objectivity.”

Deporting people doesn’t prevent gun violence. Strong gun laws, violence intervention programs, and listening to data — that’s what prevents gun violence.

Meanwhile, the Trump administration is diverting money from violence prevention and using it to terrorize immigrants. That’s not public safety.
NEW: President Trump tonight confirmed suspect in the shooting that critically injured two West Virginia National Guard members in D.C. is an Afghan national and vowed to step up his administration's hardline immigration crackdown.
Trump: National Guard shooting an "act of terror" by Afghan "flown in by the Biden admin"
Trump vowed his administration will "re-examine every single" immigrant who had entered the U.S. from Afghanistan under Biden.

The #Guard got played by Trump and now they have casualties cuz ya don’t put weekend “warriors” on city streets to play “cops” face it
A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...

Setting up for a post Trump presidency run.
⚡️JUST NOW AT FORT CAMPBELL: “We don't just want people who mindlessly follow orders. We want people who think."

WHOOPSY — VP JD Vance seems to back up the Dems (veterans) who said the military shouldn’t obey illegal orders, which Trump said they should be executed for.

A useful heuristic for understanding/predicting Trump Admin actions is to think of compassion and know they will do the opposite.

Trump plans to "East Wing" the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.

He hopes to rename the Republican Party for himself.

Team Ojeda is so grateful for the opportunity to give back to the Chatham and Hoke Communities this Thanksgiving.

On Saturday morning we volunteered at Mountaire's Thanksgiving for Thousands assembly of meal boxes for over 9000 local families in need.
