Charlie Angus: "If there's going to be decency in politics, we have to start taking on the criminal class, and there's going to have to be prosecutions. If we start seeing that, then we're going to know that the MAGA movement is dead. Otherwise, they're going to crawl away and try and rebuild."
To my fellow Americans who identify as Republican: this is what a fucking mandate looks like. #ETTD #BlueWave #2026Mandate

On this day in 1920, a white mob in Ocoee, Florida, lynched as many as 30 Black Americans and razed the Black community because a Black man attempted to vote.

My friend is a teacher at a low income elementary school in VA. She’s in desperate need of snacks & classroom items. She supplements her students meals with snacks she buys herself & has kids ask for food for hungry siblings. She’s an angel for her class and needs a little help.
I think we should all acknowledge those Republican voters that have cast a vote for a Democrat for the first time. I think we need for acknowledge their putting their country before party and voting Democrat. I know it was difficult to get there, but let's send a msg together!
Republicans sure are butt hurt over the Peltola campaign giving them a taste of their own medicine. Republicans invented entire people that didn't exist and named them similar to the Dem candidate. Fake people. Peltola recruited real people. There's a fucking difference.

Pioneering civil rights leader Dolores Huerta, a towering figure in the farmworker and labor movement in California, has died at age 96. trib.al/AjKA6Nk
When the unemployment rate hits 40% will utilities still cut off access to people who fall behind? What happens to their housing? Will banks actually foreclose on that many properties? What about food? How do we survive when all this fucking bullshit was completely avoidable?
Tell Congress: Impeach Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts 👇

BOOM! Massive crowd packing deep-red Texas for James Talarico.
Texas is alive, furious, and ready to sweep out the rot.
Talarico laid down the mandate: ban partisan gerrymandering, pass sweeping anti-corruption laws, and restore balance to the Supreme Court.
Want to see GOP scam artists shit their diapers? Tell them you want to give the voice back to the people, end corruption, and even out the Supreme Court—they’ll tell Jesus to hold on because they have another building to loot.
The political shift in Texas is real. They can’t run from it forever.

My prediction: No Democrat running for President will win the primary or general election without first committing to restore the White House, Kennedy Center and Washington, DC to pre-trump.
And promising to do so with fireworks and music would poll well with voters.

BREAKING
We have lost an American treasure!!!
Dolly Parton has died.
She was 80.
What heartbreaking news.
I think we should pass mandatory minimum sentences for politicians who break the law. Any politician convicted of a crime while in office or any time after, should be required to serve the maximum penalty for whatever crime they committed. Mandatory.
If a politician or former politician is convicted of a crime that carries a 2-5 year sentence, they should get a mandatory five years. Make the law stick and let's hold the assholes accountable. Like Mike Caruso in FL. Passes a death penalty bill for pedos. Turns out, he's a pedo

💥💥David Jolly interview just now
A model for the post DeSantis /Trump Florida AND America
Believe… no matter your party , there is a home for *you* in this message
Nicolle Wallace): ...um, it was not meant to actually do anything for their lives or Trump would have helped them with their lives if he could also get rich on crypto.
I mean, are you finding an advantage to having once been a Republican in assembling this unique coalition that you're talking about?
(David Jolly): Yeah, I do, because I—I actually reject the left-right spectrum, right? So, when I talk about a state catastrophic fund for insurance, or delivering more workforce in affordable housing, or delivering more healthcare, I'm actually talking about reducing cost.
And so, progressives sometimes are reticent to celebrate me, even though I'm talking about really improving people's basic livelihood. But Republicans are saying, "Oh, Jolly just makes business sense, right?" If we deliver more healthcare, we reduce the cost of avoidable hospital costs. If we renew our commitment to public education and lead the world, we create a stronger economy.
A state catastrophic fund for insurance is just the only actuarially sound way to cover natural disasters in a natural disaster state.
And then even moving to culture wars, Nicolle, look, I am passionate about my personal faith. My—my orientation is in faith, but if you subscribe to no faith at all, but just believe in Jefferson's natural rights of man, what I summon is the old-school Republican libertarianism that says, "✅Just keep government out of your life, out of your doctor's office, out of your bedroom."
So, interestingly, I believe I'm amplifying the values of the Democratic Party, but Republicans are hearing it because of what they used to believe in.
And I will speak to Republicans about this tonight on primary night to say, while some of your leaders have forgotten their roots, I have not forgotten mine.
The economy should work, but it should work for everybody.
We should lead with the private sector, but government's got to do its part. We should get government out of your life and allow everybody's dignity to be respected.
Those are the basics, whether you're a Democrat, Republican, or Independent tonight”
((Remember .. they try to divide us to keep THEIR power over YOU)))let’s change that model, fellow Floridians !

Farmers have figured out that the cheapest pesticide is a strip of flowers, and the scientists have verified it.
Swiss researchers sowed flower strips through 10 winter wheat fields and compared them to 15 fields without. Cereal leaf beetle larvae dropped 40%. Second-generation adults dropped 53%. Damage to the wheat fell 61%.
That pushed the pest below the threshold where spraying pesticides is even worth the money.
A follow-up study on perennial strips found beetle larvae down 66%, and yield in the wheat beside them up 10%.
The catch is that this only works when the strips are built for it. Those Swiss trials used specific plants chosen to feed specific predators: cornflower, coriander, buckwheat, poppy. A generic wildflower mix along the field edge doesn't reliably do this.
The same principle scales down to a garden. Plant a strip of yarrow, dill, fennel, or mountain mint through the middle of your vegetable beds, not just around the outside.
Then leave it alone and let the bugs go to work.
