Warning, hot mess of quilting, cats, American politics, LGBTQA equality, and various challenges my kids face trying to adult in a hostile world.

DMs with family only.

High protein lemon raspberry waffles with real raspberries. I put a smear of high protein coconut yogurt over the top and, oh my goodness, heaven for breakfast.

We’ve spent 40 years testing ‘tax cuts for the rich will help the poor.’

They didn’t, they don’t.

Because supply and demand, not wishful thinking, drives growth.

Give working people money and the whole economy moves.

Summary:
Lower taxes on the rich don’t trickle down. They pile up.

Full stop.

The cat is standing on a bucket, whining because she smells the parchment paper that I cooked bacon on. #catsky #bacon #Thanksgiving

This is disgusting.

Ronald Reagan refused to acknowledge the AIDS crisis. Even refused to help his "friend from the Hollywood days" Rock Hudson.

George W. Bush waited 7 years to recognize World AIDS Day.

And now we are back to a POS GOP POTUS who will ignore it.

It’s getting real for Home Depot. The flash mob is only the warm up, the nationwide boycott hits on November 27th.

Riddle me this, how in the fuck is this making our communities any safer? This ICE agent sprays this disabled woman directly in the face in St Paul, Minnesota with pepper spray and then throws her to the ground. I hope she sues the hell out of ICE for this‼️#Abolish 🧊🧊🧊

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:

1. Break up corporate monopolies

2. Continue building union power

3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics

Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

It’s a stunning display of ignorance to refuse decades of research and development - these fools deserve to get sick, but kids don’t. It should not be legal to feed raw milk to children!! THIS IS RFK, JR AND MAHA’S FAULT. Trump is making us poorer and sicker.

Not steam-blocked yet but the first larger block of the Hanukkah Blanket is done!

I was delayed by the need for a 2x6” pin loom because my OCD could not tolerate pieced sashing.

My 19-year-old twins are currently my Sous chefs for Thanksgiving prep. I have one that is shredding cheese. The extra sharp white cheddar is labeled "cheddar," and the fontina is labeled "not cheddar."

I love him. ♥️😂

In 2022, Donald Trump sued me and others associated with the Clinton campaign for RICO. We did not cave. We fought. First, we won in a Florida trial court. Today, we won in the 11th Circuit.

To the law firms, media corps and billionaires who bow down: Learn a lesson. Have some dignity and fight.

You cannot have a functioning economy when so few people at the top hold so much of the nation’s wealth. It’s not sustainable.

Like so many members of our military, serving this country changed my life. The Navy gave me opportunities I wouldn't dream of and taught me lessons I'll never forget. I'm grateful for everything our nation has given me, and I'll always do everything I can to give back to it.

Whew, I blanched broccoli for one dish, green beans for another dish and made apple pie filling. Tomorrow is the real work day.

Those Republicans who voted against all the investments Biden made in rural America - they stand there and grin at the ribbon cutting and take credit. Democrats need to get out there in Rural America and rightfully take the credit. Everybody is tired of MAGA talking points.

My husband and I did the hard thing. We went to a lawyer to ensure that our children's needs are taken care of. They're all adults but several have some severe challenges. The biggest thing we've done is to put our house in a trust, so when we die it won't automatically go into probate.

Last month, I led an immigration shadow hearing in Chicago. What happened there is beyond belief.

Children teargassed, CBP agents breaking a 67-year-old man’s ribs, an active duty service member whose father was deported while he was deployed.

There must be accountability.

My daughter and I visited the house we lived in when she was a baby, and she was shocked a 29-year-old Navy guy could afford a nice house in a safe neighborhood.

That wasn’t crazy in 1996 — but today, a nice house is out of reach for so many young people. That has to change.

Surprise, surprise, over a decade later, Republicans still say they hate the ACA, but STILL have no replacement for it.

While they squabble, the ticking time-bomb they left on healthcare costs will soon explode.

We must extend the ACA tax credits & continue the fight for UNIVERSAL healthcare.
