One mom's transitional shift from working woman to stay-at-home mom motivated her to fight for more recognition and appreciation for mothers' multitasking abilities to be great at all things—work, home and beyond. themotherchapter.com/motherh…

Robin Williams warned the US about Donald Trump and his links to Miss America Pageants and underage girls in 2012.
Really should have listened.

With the latest mass shooting at Brown University, this might be a good time to mention that Bill Clinton’s assault weapons ban reduced mass shooting deaths by 43% - but after George W Bush & Republicans let it expire, mass shooting deaths spiked by 239%.
It's the fucking guns.

He drove from Las Vegas to New York with an AR-15, which cannot be purchased in New York.
He walked into an office building and started spraying the lobby with that AR-15, killing the police officer whose handgun was no match for the AR-15.
This isn’t about New York.
This is about Republicans persistently blocking common sense gun safety reform, including an assault weapons ban, that a super majority of Americans support.

Trump refused to leave even after they were practically pushing him away so Chelsea photoshopped him out of their official trophy raising photo. Good move.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
A viral image that was digitally edited to remove Trump from the scene did not appear on the soccer club's official social media accounts. The image they actually posted does show Trump in the background.

Jim Carrey on Donald Trump: “We have a president who started out when the country was together and we had a wonderful leader and he is tearing us limb from limb. Destroying every institution. He’s a used car salesman. He didn’t make America great again, but he did turn back the odometer.”

BREAKING: Dallas, traditionally a more Republican leaning city, has been overtaken by peaceful protests against Donald Trump. This is remarkable.
It’s really sad how emboldened racists are because of the current administration. When I voted I knew Trump wouldn’t care about me or the values of this country. But the people voted for this and now we all suffer.

I did not have the Democratic Party getting lit on my bingo card this year

.@JoeBiden has served our country with all his heart and great distinction for more than half a century. History will honor him for his many extraordinary accomplishments as president AND for the terribly difficult and selfless decision he made today.
He understands what Donald Trump does not.
Our country is bigger than any one person--even the president of the United States.

The media has definitely been asking the wrong guy about taking a cognitive test.
That trial was rigged as much as the election was rigged. Cmon now people. How many things are rigged against Trump OR maybe he just does bad things and (sane) people are over it? #ifeellikeimtakingcrazypills
Honestly I would respect the party more if they used this to distance themselves NOT double down. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills!
Let’s remember here the jury acted with courage. Let’s not forget that justice was handed down. There will be a lot of spinning, but nothing can change the fact that he was found guilty on all 34 counts.
It’s stunning to me that the Republican party cannot muster the courage to find a new standard bearer.
