"...bleach blonde, bad built, butch body...".

No matter what your politics are, body shaming, in any way, is just wrong! But defending oneself from the attack is not only acceptable, but so is lodging an ethics complaint, and its a thing forever. MTG started the fight with a remark about Jasmine Crocket's physical appearance, and that should be recognized as an ethics violation!

End of discussion.

Sigh.

Meet Speaker Of The House Johnson, MAGA Toady

“A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves.”
~Edward R. Murrow

The Republican party gleefully chose one of the most MAGA hardliners of the MAGA hardliners. Nice guy... too bad he's a treasonous son of a bitch, and kisser of Trump's ass and ring! Read About it here. We'll see how long this guy lasts.

Breaking News... Republicans Are Fucking Nuts!

“Sometimes people hold a core belief that is very strong.When they are presented with evidence that works against that belief, the new
evidence cannot be accepted. It would create a feeling that is
extremely uncomfortable, called cognitive dissonance. And because it
is so important to protect the core belief, they will rationalize,
ignore and even deny anything that doesn't fit in with the core belief.”

Just As The Earthquake Hit...

“Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

~Ernest Benn

Tomorrow, round three.

I'm gonna say it, Jim Jordan is a clown. Congress is nothing more that a clown show. I can even hear the music in my head.

Leaf-Ward We Wander

Leaf-ward we wander...

Wind through these trees

Sunlight through breeze

Bird songs around

We wander the leaves.

Random Molecular Mirroring

It's a good day. We won back the House of Representatives last night, and it feels like a million pounds have been lifted off my chest! We Democrats didn't win everything, but we won the control of the Congress, and right now, I have more hope that I have in years! I don't need to troll broken hearted Republicans on social media, and I plan to be patient with them, because I have been there. I just want to enjoy the feeling of peace of mind. There is a lot to be done, and it won't be easy, but I will sleep tonight knowing that the world just got a little bit safer!
