@LouDPhillips @teresag555 @Photini1967 @drdoomed01 @AnitaGarcia2525 @MozPerkins @adgirlMM @jameshealyjr @TaraWilcoxon @SirJeremyLondon @VictoriaBlue68 I wrote this, and I know it's long, but I hope my friends will read this:
After two hurricanes swept through my beachside location in October and November, the saltwater infusion devastated nearly all the grass and shrubs. It might take a while for everything to recover. A few weeks ago, however, I noticed a distinctive stalk growing near the road. My first instinct was to dig it up and move it to a more hospitable spot, away from the lawn maintenance crew's weed whackers. They must have noticed it too because they cleaned around it but left it standing. A few days ago, it bloomed into a beautiful sunflower, standing tall and looking stunning amidst the barren surroundings. Below are my pictures of it. It's a sign and a lesson for me and, I hope, for others. No matter how bad things might get, there is always hope. Hope for beauty, hope for courage, and hope for life. I share this in the hope that you might carry it with you into tomorrow and the new year.

Severely ill people in need of urgent medical care in ICE custody. Deportation flights as early as TODAY.
Destination?
African countries they've never set foot in.
Which ones? Nobody will say.
According to The Guardian, that’s what advocates and families are reporting out of Florida.
No answers. Just a PLANE.

Just baked a sourdough loaf. I took the starter from the fridge last night and fed it. Then I topped it up this morning. It was bubbling away nicely. Then at lunch time I added flour, salt and water. A god 15 minute need then into a warm place to prove. Finally into bake.
Take a look at the crap the current regime left in OUR Everglades😠😠😠. Thinking they were so smart building something in the middle of a water reserve and purifier. Too stupid to realize the mosquitoes can eat people alive down there and the gators and snakes like ICE as much as anybody 😠. Stupid idiots running our country. Now we’re left with this🤮

We all saw that disturbing footage yesterday of trump snarling at a reporter in the Oval Office.
But do you know what that reporter was trying to ask?
Trump just announced a new program that rewards people for reporting government fraud.
The reporter simply wanted to know why we need this new program when we’ve already had a law doing something similar since 1863, and that law actually pays whistleblowers a higher percentage.
THAT’S A DAMN GOOD QUESTION.
And here’s the crazy part. There was a perfectly reasonable answer! The new program is supposed to cover types of fraud the old law doesn’t.
THAT’S IT. THAT’S ALL HE HAD TO FUCKING SAY.
Instead, we watched the president and vice president turn a legitimate question into a confrontation.
This man is unhinged. The way he reacts to questions is disturbing. He treats every question like a personal attack. Every reporter is an enemy. Even the simplest fucking question becomes some kind of threat.
And that’s what worries me. We have a president who appears so defensive that he can’t even handle someone asking him to explain his own policies.
This is the President of the United States, folks.
And this shit is NOT normal.

Holy shit! Lawrence O'Donnell is reporting on the absolute catastrophe, horror, and chaos caused by the devastating attack that destroyed the U.S. Naval base in Bahrain.
Operating in total secrecy — like all fascist authoritarian tyrannies — the Trump regime has blocked war correspondents from entering the area to report on what truly happened and the terror that ensued. Until now, threats of retribution against U.S. service members by the administration have kept everyone silent.
Despite their clear responsibility to safely evacuate families and children from the base, the regime failed miserably, leaving families and children still displaced. This shocking failure underscores the utter incompetence of Trump and Pete Hegseth, both of whom continue to blatantly lie to the American people about the unfolding war with Iran.
Be very, very careful when you vote in the next few weeks. Check and double check everything!!
There is a very disturbing trend being seen in early voting. Texas, Florida, Tennessee, Ohio are reporting difficulties getting the machines to accept democratic votes. The machines change them back to Republican unless the voter persists, pressing several times to get the correct vote to go through.
Check your machine, check to see that it accepted the correct vote. Make sure your voice counts.

U.S Special Envoy Steve Witkoff called Vladimir Putin a humanitarian directly to his face.
Vladimir Putin….a man who’s butchered thousands of Ukrainians, many of them women and children.
What a fucking disgrace this administration is.

Today was the annual schools pumpkin and autumn day at Wellington college. The children get to 'bob' for apples, taste several varieties of apple, learn about autumn harvests and generally have a good fun day. I parked my car and carried the pumpkins to the venue...
