Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act.

Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes?
Staffer: a DL and birth certificate.
Me: The documents don’t match
Staffer: Then a marriage certificate.
Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too?
Staffer: No
Me: See the problem?

77 million americans are very very mean, very very selfish & very very stupid. Hurting people they don’t like took priority over their own wellbeing.

Establishing the President's Make America Healthy Again Commission By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered: Section 1.

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”.

This is a manifesto against disability.

This is the language of eugenics.

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

DOJ fires members of special counsel Jack Smith's team who prosecuted Trump They couldn't be trusted to implement the president's agenda, officials said.

These are not the actions of an innocent man looking to uphold the rule of law and defend the Constitution.

They are the actions of a guilty, vengeful tyrant looking to silence his enemies and remove every check on his power.

Coward.

Cancun. We are staying on the property this time because it’s a work trip for Mister, but I’ll take any getting there tips anyone has to share lol. Currently, trying to see what kind of snacks I can stash in the carryon because the in flight meal options look less appealing than a Lunchable.
