The more my heart breaks when I read this, the greater my resolve to elect people who will work for common sense gun laws. Enabling gun violence is a sick policy choice by those in public office today. #stopgunviolence

The “math” ain’t “mathing”
I replaced a water filter on my refridgerator today that was $59 last year but $80 today. That is a 26.25% pric increase in one year. The filter was made in Korea and Trump’s tariffs were passed on to me the consumer. How is it that Trump’s team is reporting a Consumer Price Index of only 2.5%??

We don’t. And with our people working together, we won’t.
Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment.
They are openly saying this.
Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

Remember Sarah. Remember the “why.” Act to end violence.
Yesterday, Spc Sarah Becstrom was laid to rest in West Virginia at a VA National Cemetery.
Surprisingly none of the major major news media mention it. No flags were lower to half staff.
Well the Convicted FElon keeps the news focus on him.

DO NOT Give pets as Xmas gifts.
Too many of these “gifts” end up at the shelter .
A Dog/Cat is a gift we give ourselves and they come with many
sacrifices.
Time,money, and a certain amount of collateral damage in their puppyhood.

Did some things for my mental health on Thanksgiving: ran a 5K turkey trot with my family and then brought home a puppy. Meet our precocious Golden. I don’t think I’ve slept more than four hours in a row since I got her but she is a sweetheart. We will be besties, I’m sure. #puppies

Egg producers suspect bird flu is traveling through the air.
After a disastrous Midwestern outbreak early this year, we tested that theory and found that where the wind blew, the virus followed.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

My bipartisan IRS MATH Act with Senator Bill Cassidy is now law.
Now, if you mess up your taxes, the IRS has to tell you where you made a mistake and how to fix it.
No more spending a fortune on lawyers or hours to find errors.
That means fewer headaches and more money in your pocket.
