This is so true. All elections coming up are so important and have to be seen as so, in order to ensure there will continue to be elections.

.JoeBiden: Women’s History Month is a time for celebrating extraordinary women who have strengthened our nation.
This month, we celebrate the legacy of sung and unsung trailblazers, and advocates who have made the world a fairer, more just, and free place.

Even though I joined Spoutible in February, this was my first spout. I was used to only engaging with what had aleady been posted by others. Slowly I did start echoing, quote echoing and finally spouting.

[There is a description of rape in paragraph 8.] This afternoon a jury of nine Americans deliberated for less than three hours before it ordered former president Trump to pay writer E. Jean Carroll $83.3 million for defaming her after she accused him in 2019 of raping her in the 1990s. In May 2023 a..

Why the mainstream media’s awestruck coverage of Trump’s campaign is deceptive and dangerous
Friends, The mainstream media is flabbergasted at Trump’s success in sweeping the Iowa caucuses, dominating the polls, and destroying all his rivals but Nikki Haley before today’s New Hampshire primary. CNN is gobsmacked, calling Trump’s “landslide victory in Iowa” a “stunning show of strength.”

One Man - by Dan Rather and Team Steady - Steady
Here it is January 2024, and we find ourselves reminded anew that we are in a difficult, dangerous, and deepening political reality. As the first primary ballots are being cast in New Hampshire, the country is forced again to face the fact that one man has fundamentally changed us. Simply stated, it..

#DailyPictureTheme #Bake . I do love to bake, but I don't think to take pictures of my baking. I do have a shot of the last 3 (of 9) apple pies my son #Baked this fall with the apples from our tree.

#DailyPictureTheme #Respite There are so many shots I could share where I feel calm and renewed. I have shared pictures of water and forests and family, so this is the shot I chose. Me snorkling in Waikiki. Watching fish and other life in their natural habitat is amazing.

#DailyPictureTheme My husband is such a #Character ! He always makes me laugh. He knew I wanted to take a picture of the ducks as they were so close to our boat, and so he photo bombed the shot 😄 He knows me well enough to know I would have taken at least 2 shots and would not have ruined shot.

He is awesome! I am glad they are making it real. The Republicans are such hypocrites! It will be interesting if they will continue to pursue Hunter by charging him relating to his refusal to comply with the subpeona/ testify in secret.

Diana Tyler @xnrockSome people have a hard time admitting they are wrong, because someone in their early life made them feel that "being wrong" is a shameful state. They didn't learn until adulthood that mistakes are simply opportunities to learn and do better going forward. Understanding this has changed my approach.12:41 PM - Jan 08, 2024

ATTENTION QANON, MAGAT FASCISTS: Every time you sing "We're Not Gonna Take It" remember it was written by a cross-dressing, libtard, tree hugging half-Jew who HATES everything you stand for. It was you and people like you that inspired every angry word of that song! SO FUCK OFF!

"Dear New York Times,
The reason the 14th Amendment is “obscure” is that insurrectionists don’t routinely run for president. The ban on insurrectionists wasn’t intended to be used all the time — only when needed. Like now.
Hope that clears things up.
Sincerely,
Mark"

It breaks my heart that anyone could think a politician is better at making health decisions for women than her physician, the woman or her family are, especially since we passed this point years ago? Sad that Fascism relies on the oppression of everyone except old, rich, men.
