Every Saturday we have a couple of democracy dogs show up for the big time protest. Woof, quack.

A rolled up magazine with a rap on the snout could work, too.

Charlie Kirk in 2023 said Biden was a "corrupt tyrant who should honestly be put in prison and/or given the death penalty for his crimes against America."

πŸ“ŒIt is absolutely insane that two old power-hungry, greedy, lawless men are in the process of killing countless hundreds and thousands of innocent human beings, and destabilizing a world they won't be living in a decade from now, and not EVERYBODY is speaking out loudly against this.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈSeattle. Another every 12-1 Saturday protest in old Ballard. Girl Scouts had wisely set up nearby with protesters buying and handing cookies out widely. Sunny with a bracing wind and a husky type dog barked loudly and sincerely for Democracy.πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

I'm not sorry to say I know more about our national security than Donald Trump and his cabal of official and unofficial advisers. JFC!

What if a nation's legislature cedes its responsibilities to an executive? Sound familiar? In March of 1933 the Reichstag enacted a statute that gave the German cabinet, and as a result gave the new chancellorβ€”a man named Hitlerβ€”emergency powers to override the Weimar Constitution.

No matter. Relax.

The Board of Peace is going to intervene in this crisis at any moment.

I'm seeing a growing number of stories about people w/healthcare coverage whose docs ordered tests, which were performed by a lab not in network. This leaves the patient on the hook for the cost of the tests, which can run to $$$$. Here's what you do:

Kash Patel spent hundreds of thousands of dollars of our money so that he could get drunk on our dime at a hockey game.

Meanwhile we still don’t have all the Epstein files.

Are you ok with this? I’m not

Tech: A Democratic plan on DOGE data Rep. Lori Trahan (D-Mass.) is calling for a future Democratic Congress to fix a half-century-old law in a bid to update the W.H.’s access to information.

The main law meant to protect the data you provide to the government was written more than 50 years ago, and it's failing us today.

I'm spearheading the effort to rewrite the Privacy Act of 1974 so it is capable of defending us in 2026 and beyond.
