I am a 68 year old living breathing #Secret . My birth mother (who I have met) has never told her other children about me even though I am a full sibling of theirs. She had 7 children with my birth father after placing me for adoption. I have respected her wishes to remain an unknown entity. #Dribble

Maggie Haberman is being exposed as access journalism at its worst, and it speaks volumes about the slant of the coverage in The New York Times that she is touted as a star reporter.---- Newspaper of record my a&&

Now that the Speaker of the House is attending the tRump trial I've filed a report to the Government Accounting Office. I want to know who is paying for this travel of U.S. Senators, and members of Congress. This is not official government business.

Unfortunately the Christofascists are able to multitask. Let's not forget stripping women of rights, stripping transgender rights, and stripping voting rights. Their agenda is to control and oppress non-cishet white men, and they are relentless.

Your reminder that police are here to serve their personal sexual assault interests and protect corporate property. That’s it. Republicans would LOVE to give this guy immunity from any prosecution. White supremacy includes a LOT of sexual assault.
