Embarrassed to be an American in this age of MAGA cult idiots actively destroying our country, the economy, and our standing in the world. I have voted against the orange FOTUS all 3 times he has run for office. Will be resisting until we win!!
Thanks for this info!

Yes, but unlike the average federal worker, you will collect back-pay when the shutdown ends if your check is withheld now. It’s a nice thought to go without pay in solidarity, but there will be a paycheck waiting for you whenever this ends. So it’s just performative and is an empty gesture.

I didn’t see your comment; just wrote this same thing.

Meanwhile there were 2 homeless camp shootings in MN Monday night, with 13 wounded…. Unrelated, I’m sure.

Interesting… I clicked on the link here and it did NOT send me to an article with the info in the summary. It appears to redirect to live updates and other info related to the shooting in UT.

It shouldn’t be a lifetime office!! Step aside and let some fresh, modern, new ideas from younger/diverse Americans shape new policies and laws that can benefit more Americans!!

We need to get all of the white supremacists out of Congress and the government. There is no room in this country for such hate.

And we need to have term limits. Grassley planning to run again at the age of 92 after 44 years in office…. No wonder we can’t make any progress….

Exactly

That is the proper way to greet a war criminal.

My thoughts exactly. The next group to target when they are done with immigrants/brown-skinned people. Disgusting.

Thank you for talking about this!! It’s unfathomable and horrific what is happening there.
Closer to the Edge wrote a powerful and gut-wrenching piece about Gaza yesterday. Sharing here for anyone interested. It will (or at least should) make you lose your appetite.

Yes, Donald, we're still talking about Jeffrey Epstein.

Americans want answers.
