The Constitution is clear: Congress decides on war. When a president uses military force without authorization and Congress stays silent, they are abandoning their role as a co equal branch of government. War is the most serious power our government has. Shame on the U.S. Senate today.

This is a marvelous change not only for the Humpback whale πŸ‹ population but for all of us. We need to keep our gentle giants from going extinct.

It sure is. At no time was the Suicide Hotline mentioned. What if I was in need of immediate help? The orange boy and his minions have decimated veterans healthcare.

I returned a call from the Pittsburgh VA Behavioral Health department, but couldn’t get through. This is how many minutes I waited on hold, though I was frequently told, β€œYour call is very important to us. Please wait for the next available agent.” I hung up, called back, and left a message. 🀯

Per Kornacki, even with all Dallas votes in, Crockett cannot cover the difference. Talarico is our candidate. May he flip Texas that has been giving us some of the worst Senators ever.

It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist.

He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.

Mass Shooting Tracker

Found this site for US mass shootings.

America is more violent than ever.

Violence begets violence

Please πŸ™ stop, it’s not about mental health. It’s about a culture where the DoD is now the Department of War, intentionally.

A light brown toad with a wide, dark brown stripe running down their side! They are covered with lots of tiny, spiky bumps! A row of larger spiky bumps runs from their parotoid gland down their side, forming a border between the light brown and dark brown colors! They also have large spiky bumps on their cheeks and forelegs and have a slight crest running from the tip of their nose and around their eyes, connecting to their parotoid gland!

Our friend the Campbell's Rainforest Toad lives in eastern Chiapas in Mexico, Guatemala, western Honduras, and the Maya Mountains of Belize! They look similar to the quite common Gulf Coast Toad, but unlike that toad they tend to keep to themselves! (photo by Jason Headley)

On this day, in 1933, Frances Perkins was appointed by President Roosevelt as the first female cabinet member and served as Secretary of Labor.

During Women's History Month, and every month, we honor the many women who have made significant contributions to our country.

If we all survive this, can we just agree to relegate Bible-thumpers back to the pews where they belong, where they are free to pray and worship as they feel the spirit lead, rather than trying to force the world into a fantasy war of Armageddon, and women into the role of chattel slavery?
