I would like to know if the #GOP of these times has a single genuine regret (not a "concern" but any actual remorse) for all the damage their selfish support of Donald Trump has wrought on us, the American people, this country, our allies, our planet. One single sorrow? No? All good? #shame

Whitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "

The #GOP can lose the midterms backing the liar Blanche. Ironic to think they could probably have kept their seats if they'd just risen to impeach, convict and remove an unfit president before he fooled them into thinking they could ride his fake populism to advantage of their personal power.

It's the thrill of a lifetime for a new citizen to register to vote and so begin to exercise a voice in public matters. No decent President would try to suppress another American's voting rights. Trump is so unfit to lead this country. Time to boot his #GOP enablers out of office this fall.

The sheer venality of Trump's government makes all that went before it look like models of earnest endeavor to act with the public interest in mind, even though it's easy to look up boatloads of ugly exceptions. I pray we can recover some integrity when Trump's #GOP is finally swept from office.

The President promotes Scotts Miracle-Gro in the middle of an Oval Office event: The best grass you can get. Scotts, you know Scotts? Scott's Miracle-Gro, they're doing it. They do great grass. I got to give him a plug because they did the White House for free.

The lazy sociopath who golfs instead of working (on, say, a plan to win a war with Iran) wants terminally ill patients to work for benefits they’re entitled to.

So what chance does a brown-skinned 30yo construction worker born in the USA have when picked up and detained in some random attempt to meet a senseless quota of ICE busts? #Trump #DHS #immigration #fail

Scott Dworkin

The Harris County District Attorney's office had already sponsored his visa application. The local prosecutor was vouching for him in writing. ICE kept him in a cell anyway. Three weeks, no hearing. It took a federal judge and a 48-hour deadline: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-surr...

Rain clouds are sweeping in again but in the meantime I made a summer garden sautée #lunch with tomatoes, green bell pepper, scallions and just enough white rice to be able to squint and say there was none in there. Italian herbs and some cayenne... fight heat with heat is my summer kitchen mantra.😎

Another nail in the coffin of the myth that the #GOP was ever pro-life.

Around 20,000 unaccompanied minors nationwide are set to lose legal services when the federal government ends a contract Friday. One NYC immigration court shows us what that will look like. www.thecityreporter.nyc/2026/07/31/u...

The more authoritarian a government, the more politically tone deaf its leaders are. #GOP

Bold choice to remind everyone what a nightmare Covid was as we struggle to find SAFE SALAD GREENS, two bags of groceries are over $100, and RFK Jr decides to meet this moment by launching a cooking show.

What I logged in to say!!! 💯🥁 The shame and stupidity of it all.

The only thing as dumb as Alabama replacing Doug with Tommy Tuberbrain was Missouri replacing Claire McCaskill with Josh Hawley.

A lunchtime #salad construction in the wake of #cyclospora outbreak. Slowly I add stuff to an old salsa jar and imagine it with a little oil and vinegar dressing... red onion, grape tomatoes, chickpeas, cukes, feta cheese, kalamata olives... "Will this fit in a pita?" 🫤😎🌦️🌈

Made myself crazy today looking for a small single Irish chain #quilt top in peach, cream and teal. Pretty sure it was wrapped in muslin and tucked into one of my under-bed canvas containers with larger works ready for backing. Of course paused to admire this or that and made zero progress. 🙀😬

Of Course they are…. “The Trump administration announced that power plants built exclusively to serve data centers (ones that never connect to the public grid) are now exempt from the Clean Air Act’s Acid Rain Program.”
