Trump is acting like he cares about the wildfire smoke coming into the U.S. from Canada. Here are just a few reasons why he doesn’t. This is all just another excuse to justify tariffs on Canada because he’s petty.

Alright. I have a challenge for the people of New Orleans:
Pick a week. And instead of driving your car utilize public transportation. Bus. Ferry. Streetcar. Bike. No personal vehicle. No rideshares.
I want to know if you are capable of sacrificing personal convenience

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Never thought I’d be “proud” of an AI system. However- ChatGPT refusing to respond is kinda nice, even the AI knows something’s not right.

This is highly concerning. On many levels.
DEI programs were created to give everyone who meet objective standards a fair shot at serving our country. Diversity has changed America for the BETTER. Rolling back these programs and offices with an executive order is completely disgraceful.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

I had these patches made a few years back.
I define a *mischief maker* as one who’s intentions are good, who’s actions facilitate positivity, and who work to make the world a better and happier place.
The world is a wild place at the moment, be kind to each other and take time for laughter.
