ALL HAIL THE QUEEN OF BOSTON 👸

Sharon Lokedi DOMINATES the final 5K of the 2026 Boston Marathon, locking up her second-straight title in 2:18:51.

From Mile 23 to the finish, Lokedi split a mind-blowing 15:36, including a 4:36 split in Mile 24. The next finisher was 44 seconds behind.😱

In a nutshell. 😊

It's incredible that these levels tolerating this level of open corruption.

All Texans deserve water.

Wall Street and Big Tech are coming for our water across Texas. They want to monopolize it for their own greed.

At the recent candidate forum, I spoke about the importance of ensuring children and adults with special needs and disabilities have access to the resources they deserve.

That means investing in healthcare, strengthening education systems, and creating real opportunities for independence.

ICE detained the wife of an active-duty U.S. Army Sgt. First Class after she showed up for an immigration appointment in 📍 El Paso—then still threatened removal despite legal protections.

Her husband (27 years active duty) said it plainly: ICE is out of control.

Turns out the phrase “America First” is preceded by the words “Sell Out.”

If you purchased an auto in the last year, you paid thousands more for that vehicle in the USA because of tariffs. Even if it was made in the USA. Those auto companies passed those taxes onto you. You paid as much as 10% more. Now they are going to get 10% back in their pockets. WTH! NOT YOU!

Chief Justice’s Wife Made $10M+ as Legal Recruiter: Report At least one of the firms reportedly had a case before Chief Justice Roberts.

The corruption is just stunning.

Back to the simple natural order of things…….. not human arrogance based on destruction of our water,air, environment for profit…… for the 1%

As Trump’s lies get more egregious (and repetitive) I have at least noticed fewer mouth-breathing bootlickers willing to defend him in my comments.

And the administration is leaking about how he’s hurting negotiations and how they’re keeping him on the sidelines.

I’ll call that progress.

Imagine a California where families and workers don't just survive, they flourish. That’s the roadmap. 

Better schools, housing that’s affordable, cleaner air, and a health care system that sees you as a human being first.

Let’s make it happen.

How tragic that you could publish, then re-publish, then re-publish, then re-publish, then re-publish a cartoon like this over and over again...

I hope the takeover of InfoWars by @theonion.com and @timheidecker.bsky.social that resulted from the bankruptcy brought on by Alex Jones’ evil attacks on the victims of Sandy Hook brings you as much joy as it does me.

Agree

Before they were arrested- Vets are demanding an end to the war on Iran at the Cannon Building in Washington, D.C.

Winter storm warning for Sierra as another multi-foot dump expected The National Weather Service warns of “significant reductions in visibility at times” and “major travel delays” from heavy snow, gusty winds and potential lightning.

A looming storm is forecast to drop more than 2 feet of snow in parts of the Sierra, prompting the weather service to issue winter storm warnings. It’s the second round of winter storm warnings this month in the Sierra, a rarity for April.

Snow drought won't be wiped out, but this will help some.

April 20 - The Bravest of Conductors On this day in Labor History the year was 1853. That was the day that Harriet Tubman led her first trip on the underground railroad, the clandestine network that helped enslaved people escape slavery and move north to freedom. One of the most remembered ‘conductors’ on the railroad, Tubman had herself escaped slavery in eastern Maryland.

Got our solar panels installed this AM. They came at 8:30am and we're gone by 1:30pm. 13 panels and 10kwh battery.

We can't export to the grid yet (the network operator has been flooded with new requests) but we charged our car with the sun this afternoon. Great feeling, strongly recommend.

The SAVE Act Will End Voting Rights for Women in America The SAVE Act has passed the House—we cannot let it pass the Senate

BREAKING: The so called 'SAVE' Act has FAILED in the Senate and will not become law.

I wrote this piece on how in reality, this is the Voter Restriction Act to prevent women from voting. It is fascism and would have installed Trump as a permanent dictator. www.qasimrashid.com/p/the-save-a...

Maddow: "Do we think our servicemen and women are in good hands? Do we think that there is care being taken in terms of what they're risking their lives for?"

Well he has more reason to than Jared Kushner.
