Trump abandoned by these Republicans. It's a growing list.

The rights war on women continues. It's all about control.
"Berger also notes that in states that approved no-fault divorce, domestic violence rates dropped about 30%, the number of women killed by an intimate partner fell by 10%, and women’s deaths by suicide dropped by 8–16%. It’s hard to imagine American voters are going to embrace an end to no-fault divorce."

They identify as "pro life". They're not. They're only pro embryo. Fucking assholes.
How your congressional rep voted in today's contempt of Congress vote against the Attorney General:

The message I just sent to my Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick:
"Your vote today to hold the Attorney General in contempt for not producing audio tapes of a 250 page transcript that your party already has reeks of partisan poppycock. Jim Jordan would love to catch President Biden stutter through an answer. This was an absolutely gutless vote on your part."

Sharks and Boats and Trucks, Oh My! Was wondering why everyone was referencing batteries and sharks. Now I know.

Someone just shared this image with me. I thought it had to be an AI image. I was wrong. Holy crap.

America better wake up. This guy has bankrupted every business he's ever touched. He is going to grab even more power if given the opportunity.

The Trump Party's war on women continues. They're telling the truth here - this is what they'll do. Make America the 1700s again!

Mrs. Alito has been forbidden to fly anymore flags by her Mister. Her work-around effort is just sad.

How stupid does the red tie brigade from Congress feel now? It's the company you keep, right? Will they be there on July 11th? Mobsters.

Great comment I just read on a WAPO article this morning:
"Could Mr. Alito explain to Mrs. Alito that every non-Alito person has the right to put up yard signs in their yard. Even if a sign says something she doesn't like about a sociopath who assaults women, leers at teenagers, steals national security documents, and tries to overthrow an election."
A "reasonable" person? Surprised he lets his wife make her own decisions. Certainly not a right he's afforded to the women of the US. Judge Alito is not exactly a "reasonable" person.

Just watched this wonderful play after talking with a former student of mine who is now living in Austin, Texas. We started talking Texas politics and I shared what seems like a dream now - the lives of Barbara Jordan, Ann Richards and Molly Ivens. After our conversation I ended up watching this wonderful play. Gov. Richards died in 2006 but her message really still applies today.
