After losing both my mom and dad this year, I do believe I’ll start a cheerful New Year’s tradition. As long as I walk this earth, part of my parents live on as well. So, this New Year’s, I will honor them by celebrating with joy and gratitude the life they gave me. Here’s to you, Mom and Dad!

At this rate, I’m wondering how many years it will be before I can replace my pines with palm trees.
Despite the horrors Ukrainians are forced to endure, they have such an abundance of honor and courage. That is something I, as an American, find myself missing in my own country these days. May Ukraine ultimately prevail and serve as a guiding light for the rest of the world, as my country once did.
Trump: "We've got a lot of stupid people in this country running things."
This man is a legal immigrant—a chiropractor from Oregon.
He was driving his toddler to daycare.
The toddler was asking him what was going on as ICE busted his windows, shackled him, and put him in a van.
May God have mercy on us.
Republican election clerks in Colorado say a GOP strategist claiming to work with the Trump administration asked for insider access to voting systems. They refused. #copolitics
I asked AI how closely Stephen Miller’s post today aligns with Nazi ideology in 1930s Germany. This is what I got.
Yes. It's almost a cliche to say "If you want to know what you have would have been doing in 1930's Germany, look at what you're doing right now" but it seems to become truer and truer every day that this administration is in power.
Laughing in front of cages designed to hold migrants and refugees, many of whom came to this country fleeing extreme violence and poverty, and hoping to raise their children in a more compassionate country. And many of whom followed all the legal procedures to enter the country.

Tapper’s become the obsessed and vindictive ex-girlfriend who feels wronged by her ex. He simply cannot let it go until he makes the Biden family pay bigly for whatever hurt he feels they caused him. Time to talk to a professional about this self-destructive behavior, perhaps?
Hi everyone
I was denied entry, detained, and deported from the USA over the last 48 hours because of my reporting on the Columbia student protests
I arrived back in Melbourne hours ago and had my phone handed back to me upon landing
I swear I am not making this up. Tonight Trump will go to the Kennedy Center to see “Les Miserables,” a play about a mass uprising against a tyrannical king. I hereby retire from satire.
Breaking news: The Trump administration is planning a major increase of deportations to Guantánamo, including citizens of Britain, France and other allies.
Officials said they are unlikely to inform the foreigners’ home governments about the transfers.
The Supreme Court decision allowing DOGE full, unfettered access to the public's most sensitive personal data is a loss for all of us.
No one in history -- no commissioner, no president, no one -- has ever had the access that these DOGE minions have.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.
No one has heard from you in 78 days.
As vigil, I’m posting a photo (& today a video) of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.
This news is absolutely heartbreaking. President Biden has spent his life in service to others, and it’s devastating to hear he’s facing such a serious health battle. My thoughts, love, and deepest prayers are with him, Dr. Biden, and their entire family. Hoping and wishing for his full recovery.
To be fair now ask Trump the death days and years of his parents and siblings. If Trump can't get those dates correct, it's time to put him out to pasture, no?
Adriana Smith was declared brain-dead months ago, and her family would like her taken off of life support.
But because she is pregnant, and this is Georgia, her medical team is legally required to maintain life support until the fetus reaches viability. www.11alive.com/article/news...
I visited Delaney Hall this morning and I want to tell you about where we stand, why this moment is so dangerous, and why I’m so strongly opposed to private, for-profit prisons and detention centers. 1/

The safety of America's food supply is getting murkier. "If there’s one thing you can do right now to help protect yourself, it’s this: swearing off bagged, prechopped lettuce," writes Nicholas Florko:
I wondered the same thing, but from the article, "...washing your bagged lettuce rigorously is not the answer. If it’s infected, only a thorough cooking is going to kill the bacteria and protect you from getting sick." Cooked salad -- yummy!
Loved this tidbit from the article: "Buying whole heads of lettuce might just be the life hack that keeps you from hacking up your Caesar salad."
In the era of a weakened FDA, I wonder if it's best to eat mostly cooked veggies....
People who choose to engage in risky or careless behavior -- PLEASE do not involve your pets! After all she's been through, I hope Mirage will find herself a wonderful home where she will never have to go through such an ordeal again.
