Good morning. Happy Labor Day. I went to the grocery store twice yesterday, and I did several loads of laundry. I also cleaned the spare bedroom.That was the extent of my fun. There is a protest in Fayetteville today. My brother-in-law is going.
Good morning everyone! It's Monday and Labor Day. I hope most of you are off work today & can take it easy with family and/or friends. It's quiet here & I had a nice weekend mostly inside. I did water thoroughly & put out bird seed again-that got some results! Have a good Monday!
It's Labor Day & we do have a chance for thunderstorms today but it's still hot but better. Days are shorter obviously now- For Tucson: A 20% chance of showers and thunderstorms after 11am. Partly sunny, with a high near 101. East wind 7 to 10 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph.
Happy Labor Day from Jeffrey

Good am and wishing you all a nice labor day!☕🌄☕ Sending empowering vibes for all. Many of the parks in USA are here because of CCC and other USA employment projects. If you can enjoy these parks it is great \ history lesson. One was done by CCC an hour away called White Pines State Park.🌄 Beautiful
Went to go outside and Mrs. Chip Cardinal was sitting in shrub \ squirrel was looking for more peanuts. Talked \ whistled to them and she ended up picking one. Her hubbs flew over and hung out for a bit before getting his.🐦💖🐦 Love these guys.🤗She has taken initiative last couple times for peanuts.✨

Trump hasn’t stood in front of cameras and ranted about a trans shooter in the home state of Tim Walz and then his plans changed and he stayed in DC (which he hates) for a 3-day weekend, but I see no one in the national media asking why.

So the photos we get of the “golf outing” today is a pale and feeble looking one of him getting to a car at the WH and this one of him returning. Nothing from the course.
The Epstein Survivors have a press conference this week.
I can't wait to find out why this statement is so bizarre.
I heard loud Cardinal pips 🎼 so went out back to look and it was Mrs. Chip in the shrubbery.😍🎼🐦 She must have really wanted a "before nest snack" so she got a peanut.🌰 First time she has stopped by and called.🎼🎵🎵 So awesome.🤗 This is her from an am visit with the sparrows yesterday.

Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:
Early night for Sleepy Don. Not even any insults either.
If that Trump Truth Social account posts an apology to someone, admits making a mistake, or accepts responsibility for something, then we will know something is definitely up.
While looking like death on a cracker.
We now know that Trump, or probably more correctly, the White House posted a photo today showing Trump playing golf which we now know was taken over a week ago. What do you reckon is going on?
The thing about those 600 minors being deported is none of them were in the Epstein files like Trump is.
"The last message from the beloved late autocrat was a heartfelt 'good night' to the nation that adored him."
Maybe they should hire Gavin Newsom to fake his texts!😉
Friends, we're ok I'm n my way to the office After a week of remote work I feel more rested than after a holiday week That's strange Still +30C in Kyiv Traditionally Sept 1 is the 1st day for all schools and universities Many of them destroyed by russian scum I'm very sad today
Take several seats, JD.
Good morning, Eileen. Happy Monday. Have a relaxing Labor Day.🪻
Good morning friends. Happy Labor Day. Enjoy your day today.🥰

We are literally becoming a police and military state under this administration, when chalk at a memorial is treated like a crime, it’s not about “safety.” It’s about this administration having complete control on the American people.
This is just sad. We’ve posted about this before. Now here is what is going down. The rainbow crosswalk at the Pulse memorial in Orlando (created to honor the 49 lives lost in the 2016 shooting) has now become the target of state enforcement.
Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.
"Your Honor, your order said we could not remove unaccompanied minors. We emphatically state for the record that these minors were accompanied by Government officials for the entire transport process".
As the DoJ tells the court that it will not remove unaccompanied minors to Guatemala, we can only hope they’re telling the truth.

This week brought wins on all fronts: Catelin Drey flipped a Trump district in Iowa and broke the GOP’s supermajority in the state senate. A federal judge protected Kilmar Abrego Garcia from deportation. And yes, even ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ is about to be empty. Not bad for one week.
NEW: The trump administration attempted to remove 600 terrified unaccompanied minors to Guatemala in the middle of the night on a holiday weekend. Judge Sooknanan stopped it. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-sookna...
There's only one way to stop the rumors about Donald Trump's health: a press conference. Why won't he talk to the press, and why isn't the media doggedly demanding it?

Their proposal? A special panel (similar to the one created after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks) that would award them damages for what they claim were “unfair prosecutions.” The very people who fueled a violent insurrection now want the government to cut them a check.
On his first day back in the White House, Trump granted clemency to the rioters who stormed the Capitol on January 6, 2021. That pardon gave them their freedom and even seemed to satisfy their initial calls for revenge.
America’s best hope for the future would be that Democrats win back the house and we have Speaker Jefferies. Then JD Vance accidentally slips trying to throw a electric heater into Trump‘s bath water and falls in too.
She’s a singular sensation!

See, I figure they won't announce it Monday because nobody will go to work Tuesday. So they'll wait until the evening news cycle (3 p.m. East Coast) and then double-hump the story through the rest of the week. That's Wednesday headlines, Thursday remembrances, weekend opinion pieces, Monday gulags.
We can pray.
Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.
Thou shalt not end vaccines. God will not save you from plague. The Middle Ages should’ve made that very clear.

Lord, no! One year in Rogers, almost every new hire was from Oklahoma!
There is not a long line of out of state teachers wanting to teach in Oklahoma anyway.
Out of the first five questions, four are about gender identity. There isn't even a pretense that they're looking for qualified educators. They're interviewing candidates for the bathroom police.

You ever see somebody so old and sick they don’t walk in...they creak in? Breathing like Darth Vader with bronchitis. Let’s be honest…there’s no way this guy makes it another year. A stiff breeze in March might finish the job. He's a very ill man.
It’s not normal for POTUS to get into a car or to be seen in public without waving to people- real or imaginary Somethings up 🤨 🤨
Brilliant
"Nobody wants to be a cop [in DC]. They were abused. They were spit on." "When you when you say they were abused and spit on, I'm assuming you're talking about January 6th, correct?" "All you guys want to do was bring up J6 about the answer to everything."

As the days grow closer to the 9/3 gathering of the Epstein/Epstein/Epstein/Trump victims more distractions & absurd news will be circulating from this WH. No surprise there.

It took a federal judge to step in and block the deportation, blasting the midnight raid tactics as a betrayal of due process and human dignity. Maybe Border Patrol should focus on fighting fires. After all, the military is busy in D.C. spreading mulch.
Targeting firefighters while they work. Dragging children from their beds in the dead of night. MAGA will go to any length. We’ve said it before, eventually the monster comes for us all!
